Chapter 733 Behind Your Back

After a short while, a doctor asked Waylen to look at some statistics, so Waylen stood up. "Just look around if you want. I'll tell them to bring the boy to you once the treatment's over."

Leanna nodded. "Thank you." Once Waylen was gone, she sat around for a while, but Aidan still wasn't back yet after some time, so she explored the house. There was a big garden in the backyard, and Leanna stepped into it. She was greeted by a gust of breeze, and the air was filled with the scent of flowers. It's a better living space compared to anything the city has to offer. Leanna sat down on a bench and stared into the distance.

Not too long later, someone sat beside her. Thinking it was Aidan, Leanna turned around. "Hey…" She froze for a moment when she saw who it was. Delighted, she said, "Naomi?"

Naomi asked, "You've been staring into space for a while now. What's on your mind?"

Leanna stared ahead and looked at the ground. "Nothing. Just random thoughts."

"Still worried about the child?"

"I know he's living well here. With you and Waylen taking care of him, he's slowly healing, but I just feel like I've not been a good mother to him. I barely have time for the boy, and even when he's sick, all I can do is watch."

Naomi said, "He was born prematurely, and his constitution was and still is weak. He worked hard to get better, and then this happened. I know you're upset, but this is not your fault. I've always wanted to tell you that." Naomi continued, "I know you went through a lot to give birth to him. You might not be

there for him often, but the fact you gave birth to him under those circumstances is proof that you did your best. We all want our children to grow up healthy, but some people will not stop until the boy is ruined. If you want to blame someone, blame me and Aidan. We shouldn't have hidden the child from you. You had the right to know."

Leanna looked at her toes as she whispered, "That's what I used to think, but I understand why you did that. If I had known about the boy, it wouldn't have been good for him. I couldn't have taken care of him well. Aidan made the right call."

Naomi sighed silently and patted her shoulder. "Just leave the past in the past. The future's always shining."

Leanna heaved a sigh as well. Yeah, the worst has passed. Everything's getting better. The boy's getting better with every treatment too. Leanna smiled at Naomi. "Thank you, Naomi."

"It's nothing. I just hope you won't hold anything against me."

Leanna held her arm and purred, "You raised the boy so well. I only have gratitude for you."

Naomi smiled and held her hand, then she stared into the distance. Aidan came to the garden just in time to see this, and he stopped at the doorway. A smile curled his lips, and he cocked his eyebrow. A while later, he felt something bumping against his leg, and he stared down at the wobbling child.

Aidan crouched down and held his chin with a finger. "You shouldn't approach strangers that easily, you know."

The boy was scared. Staring at Aidan, he wobbled backward and puckered his lips. He looked like he was about to cry.

Aidan said, "No crying."

The boy understood that and sniffled instead, but he was still staring at Aidan like a hurt puppy. Aidan glanced at Leanna and Naomi before muttering, "I'm done for if you cry."

The boy lost interest in him and waddled to the garden, but then he fell down. He didn't cry and turned to look at Aidan. The doctor who took the boy here wanted to pick him up, but Waylen stopped her.

"Our business here is done. Go do something else."

Aidan crouched in front of the boy. "Stand up."

The boy got up and wobbled for a bit, then he stared at Aidan again. Aidan got what he meant. "Do you want me to take you there?"

The boy swung his arms around and babbled, perhaps agreeing with what Aidan said. Aidan smiled. "You know what you should say."

The boy tilted his head to the side, wondering what Aidan was talking about. Aidan said slowly, "Call me Daddy."

The boy narrowed his eyes and clapped his hands, then he grinned. "Da… da…"

Aidan nodded. "Good. You're more obedient than your mother, that's for sure." Aidan carried the boy in

one arm and walked to the garden.

Leann was still chatting with Naomi when she felt something looming over her. She looked up and was met with a cute little face. Her eyes lit up and she extended her hand. The boy extended his arms as well and leaned forward, then he fell into her embrace. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

The moment she held the boy, everything felt right. The void in her heart was filled. The boy had grown a lot, both in height and weight.

Naomi got up. "It's late. You guys have fun. What do you want for dinner?"

Holding the boy, Leanna said, "I'm fine with anything."

Naomi looked at Aidan. "Same here."

"I'll whip something up then."

"Sure," said Leanna.

After Naomi was gone, Aidan sat beside Leanna. "So what were you two talking about?"

"You, and not the good stuff," answered Leanna.

Aidan said slowly, "No wonder you were smiling all the time."

Leanna smiled and looked at her boy. "Still remember me, sweetie?"

The boy held a lock of his mother's hair and smiled. "Mama…"

Aidan asked, "What about me?"

The boy looked at him, puckered his lips, and looked away.

Yeah, he got that from his mother.
