Long Time, My Baby

Chapter 15 It's Over And It's Beginning

In the Great Garden, Lucian and Leah were sitting face to face on the sofa, and the Butler, Hugh, was standing aside.

"Today is just the beginning. My help is complete. The media will not report any negative news about you tomorrow. You can work in MZ Group, and your salary is the same as the normal staff in the company. I believe that the top student of the university should not just work as a clerk in a small hotel." [Lucian rested his chin on his hand lazily.

"Condition."

Lucian narrowed her eyes and said, "You come to live with me. Of course, you live in the guest room, and you should be my girlfriend." Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

She knew that this guy had bad intentions.

Leah stared at his cold face and said, "Bastard."

"As for men, they are either hooligans or gay." [穆瑾瑜] straightened up and said, "you have no choice now. If you don't agree with me, Zack will ruin your reputation tomorrow and you will become a mistress called a mistress. The Mu's manor won't hire an employee who is condemned by the public opinion. Moreover, do you think other companies will hire you?"

[叶歆瑶] remained silent. Seeing her wavering, [穆瑾瑜] continued.

"As for ye clan, I think you should understand that they won't care about you. So, if you don't agree with me, you can't even survive. On the contrary, if you agree with me, these problems won't exist. Besides, I let you be my girlfriend, not a sex slave. I won't force you. What are you afraid of? Didn't I treat you well before? "

"I don't love you." Leah frowned.

"I will make you fall in love with me."

"But my heart is already cold."

"I'll warm it up."

"My identity..."

"I don't mind."

Leah kept silent for a while.

"I've been waiting for someone."

"I allow you to go on, but you have to cherish the person in front of you." A trace of displeasure flashed through [穆瑾瑜]'s eyes. She knew that she was waiting for him. Humph, bad girl.

The economic foundation decided the construction, and everything in front of her was a cloud. Well, she wavered.

"The last question. Where is your girlfriend?" She had been struggling with this question.

"I only want Leah."

Lucian's eyes were as deep as the sea. She felt that she was about to fall in love with him. It seemed that there was nothing wrong to promise him.

"Okay, I promise you. But I won't move in for the time being, and I won't make my relationship with you public."

"Okay, I'll give you a week. When you are going to move in, I'll ask Hugh to go with you. As for others, I'm still your boss." After saying that, Lucian gave a hint to Hugh.

"This is the contract." Hugh handed over the contract he had already made.

"Write it down." Lucian raised his eyebrows.

Leah took a look at the contract and found that there was no problem. She signed it without hesitation. She was a tough person.

Looking at the delicate handwriting on the contract, Lucian's smile deepened. His little girl was hooked.

"Coo!".

As soon as Leah put down her pen, her stomach growled and her face turned red in an instant.

"Are you hungry? Hugh. " Lucian smiled.

"Yes. Lunch is ready. Please have lunch." A smile flashed across Hugh's eyes, but he didn't show it too much.

"I didn't have breakfast this morning." Leah explained anxiously.

Lucian stood up and stared at the red face, "neither do I."

"Ahem..."

In the afternoon, Leah asked Lucian to send her back to the old street. She changed her clothes, bought some toys and went to the orphanage.

The flowers were still blooming in the alley. Seeing these flowers, Leah was in a good mood.

"Hi, pretty sister." There was surprise in her childish voice.

Leah lowered her head and smiled. It was the little girl who talked to her last time, "I said I would come to see you. Now, I'm coming."

Hearing this, the little girl's eyes curved. She carefully looked at the toys in Leah's hands and asked, "are these gifts?"

"Of course, these are gifts for you and other children. Can you take them to play with other children?"

"Thank you, sister. Oh, by the way, the dean's mother is also here."

Looking at the pair of cunning eyes, Leah couldn't help laughing. How lovely the child was.

The orphanage was still the same as before. Some parts of it had been renovated, but it didn't change much. The children here, even though they were orphans, lived happily.

"Leah, what are you doing here? Come on in!" The Dean was surprised to see Leah standing at the door of her lounge, so she called her in in a hurry.

"Auntie Ann, how are you doing recently?" Leah entered the room with a smile.

"Quite good. How about you? You are more than 20 years old now. We haven't seen each other for more than ten years. You are so beautiful. " Auntie Ann brought Leah up and treated her as her own daughter.

"Don't worry. I'm fine now."

"Hey, Leah, where is your mother? Why didn't she come with you? " Auntie Ann looked around the yard.

Leah's heart ached, "My mother has been in hospital since I was taken back to the Ye clan. The doctor said that she passed away after the rescue failed."

"What? How could it be? She has always been in good health." Auntie Ann felt a little dizzy.

Leah's mother was a good friend of her when she was at school. When she had no way out, she came to the orphanage and entrusted Leah to her. From then on, although she was rarely seen, she would come to the orphanage once a month to visit her daughter.

Sadness flashed through Leah's eyes.

"What's wrong with her?" Tears welled up in Auntie Ann's eyes.

"Suicide with depression."

"How could it be? I remember that at school, your mother was a well-known rich lady. She was good- looking, came from a good family and had a good temper. When she sent you to the orphanage, she was always beautiful. How could this be? Things change. " Auntie Ann was heartbroken.

Seeing Auntie Ann like this, Leah felt even worse. "Don't cry. I believe that mom will bless us to live a happy life."

"My child, you have suffered a lot these years." Auntie Ann looked at Leah in front of her. She had changed from a little girl to such a beautiful and graceful girl without a mother. How did she make it through.

"Well, let's talk about some pleasant things. I heard that a kind-hearted person has been supporting the orphanage in the past few years." Leah changed the topic.

Auntie Ann wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and nodded, "yes, Mr. M, he will sponsor the orphanage for two hundred thousand every year, and the money is from overseas. In fact, the orphanage doesn't need so much money. I have hired teachers for the children and bought clothes or something else."

"Mr. M?" Although Leah had some doubts, she was still very happy that there was a kind person who cared about the orphanage so much.

"Yes. Speaking of what happened eight years ago, the orphanage was about to be demolished when the Wilson city was redecorating it. But later, the government said that it wouldn't be demolished and gave the orphanage a financial aid. A few days later, a Mr. M remitted the money and said that he was supporting the orphanage."

"Why is there such a kind person?" Leah's eyes curved. There were still many kind-hearted people.

"Stay for dinner tonight." Auntie Ann asked her to stay. It was getting late.

"Okay."

In the ICU of the hospital, Mr. Barton was lying quietly on the bed. His face was pale and his body was filled with tubes of various colors.

Standing outside the ward, Charlie saw his grandfather who had a sudden heart attack through the window. There was a flash of pity in his eyes. No matter how cruel he was, in the end, the person lying in the hospital was his only family member who had cultivated him for more than 20 years.

Charlie really didn't understand why his grandfather wanted him to marry Leah. For so many years, this was the only time that his grandfather forced him. Was he really wrong?

But he didn't love her. The engagement of the rich needed political marriage. If he lost Leah, he would find a woman better than her to be his wife.

He was right, no matter in the past or now.
