Chapter 1085 Divorce (9)
Lawrence pursed his lips and remained silent. He thought, perhaps Elliot had other reasons… but they had nothing to do with him.
After Rose finished speaking, she took Leah’s hand and said warmly, “Leah, let’s go back?”
“Okay.” Leah looked up at her mother and replied.
After Rose left, she tried to appear calm but still felt uneasy inside. The little one walking beside her sensed her mother’s mood and smiled while tugging on her hand.
Rose turned to the little one standing beside her in confusion and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
“Mommy, look at me pouting like a balloon?” Leah pouted with a funny expression on her face as she looked at her mother.
As soon as Rose turned around, she saw the cute expression of her daughter. All of the worries disappeared instantly.
She indulgently reached out to touch Leah’s head. “Leah is so cute.”
“Mommy, that guy is just a jerk who doesn’t know how good you are! You’re such a beautiful fairy. Such a man is unworthy of you getting angry.” After finishing this sentence confidently and standing upright in front of her mommy, she had her hands on hips. “You know what? You’re the cutest when you smile!”
“Um.” Rose responded happily before bending down directly to pick up the little one in front of him. “Leah is Mommy’s little angel.”
“Mommy is Leah’s fairy.” Leah’s chubby little hand rubbed Rose’s neck earnestly before she kissed it once seriously.
Rose smiled slightly as relief filled both eyes…
After returning to the the Harper Villa, Rose let Leah play by herself for awhile while preparing for bath time.
Unknown to Rose was that after entering into the bathroom alone, Leah was lost deep in thought.
‘According to current circumstances, Daddy should not allow Mommy leave easily since he fears that Mommy will really leave with Daddy Ingram. So now it seems like this would be the best opportunity for them all together, but Mommy… she still seems very wary towards Daddy. The biggest breakthrough point lies within Daddy himself.’
Thinking about this, the young girl pursed her lips decisively, deciding now was time for action.
After Leah left the room quietly, she headed to the study to find Elliot. However, she didn’t expect to run into that familiar little boy, Shawn, outside the study.
At this moment, Shawn was holding a book and preparing to ask his dad about something he didn’t understand. He didn’t expect to meet that little girl here.
The two of them looked at each other and hesitated whether or not they should go in.
Just then, Elliot’s cold voice came from inside the study. “If you can’t get this done by tomorrow, you’re fired!”
Shawn and Leah heard his impatient tone and looked at each other. They both clearly felt Elliot’s bad mood tonight.
In the end, it was Shawn who reached out and took Leah’s hand directly away from the door of the study.
As they walked down the hallway together, Shawn stopped but Leah pulled her hand away forcefully. She pouted and said unhappily, “I know Dad is in a bad mood; I won’t go in.”
“Mmm,” replied Shawn softly as he unconsciously pursed his lips.
Actually just now he was more afraid that Dad would scare this little girl. She was so cute; he didn’t want her to be scared.
Leah looked at Shawn with a serious expression on her face but frowned unhappily when she spoke, “Don’t hold my hand again! Only my brother can hold my hand!”
Shawn heard this statement helplessly as he gently touched her head with his hand. “I’m one year older than you; you can call me brother!”
Leah wrinkled her nose disapprovingly as she retorted, “I don’t want to call you brother! Your mother is a bad person!”
“And besides,” she added, “I have older brothers!”
