Chapter 136 Henry saw my car in the parking lot. My driver informed him about Zoe, so he didnât take too long and came to support me.
âThe court has given you the guardianship of Zoe, it doesnât mean that he canât talk to Laura on the phone or join us at her Villa for a visit.
Donât act like you havenât done it earlier!â
Henry counted Leoâs all uninvited and unannounced visits, warning him.
âI can see where you are coming from, Leo. You are trying to guiltâtrip Laura into giving in, accepting your request for patching up.
But keep one thing in mind, Leo!
It wonât happen on my watch!â
Henryâs accurate guess dawned on me that Leo was a sly manipulator, using our sonâs sickness to fool me. I felt my body growing hotter as I hissed at him.
âLeo, our son isnât a puck for a player like you. Stopping hitting him to score a goal. You will get nothing in the end!â
And walked out of the hospital, Henry praised me for my strong defense.
âLeo was badly in need of a fact check, Laura. You did great.
He deserves this dose!â
Henryâs vigilant stance didnât fail to catch any danger looming over me, he was skilled in spotting any inconvenience from afar. I was deeply moved by his help today, so I expressed my heartfelt emotions without any hesitation.
âThank you, brother!
You have taken great care of Jane, and now you are protecting Zoe as well. I am certain that be a good father to your own kids.â
â 60.34 Chapter 136 Tugging his arm like a child, I voiced out my wish to be Aunt, as Henry was still unmarried.
âYou must bring your girlfriend home now, brother. We will arrange your wedding.
ceremony, and by next year, I will be the aunt.
Then we will be a complete family.â
Henry let out a disapproving grunt and scoffed, âWhy do I need a girlfriend or a soâcalled family when I have you guys, Laura?â
He took out his cell phone and showed me his pics of me, Jane and Zoe.
âSee, isnât this my family? I have to protect you like I promised, Laura. You are my responsibility!â
My brotherâs unconditional love warmed my heart, I rested my head on his shoulder and vowed.
âI will try my best to find the woman in Henryâs heart.â
As we planned earlier, I went to watch Brightâs match. Jane couldnât come due to her science project. Her teacher gave her the task of collecting metals, so she went to the market with Henry. But we were going to have dinner together.
So, when my cell phone buzzed in the last half of the match, I thought that Henry had dropped Jane at the stadium. I left the match at a critical point and came out to see her, but she wasnât there.
However, I met my son, Zoe, wearing a Pink Panther hoodie.
âMommy!!!â
Zoe ran as fast as his tiny legs could and wrapped his arms around my legs.
âWhy did you leave me alone at the hospital? I was so scared, mommy!â
Putting up a helpless face, Leo appeared from the crowd of his fans, they had gone crazy to Chapter 136 see him in the lobby. His assistant kept apologizing on his bossâs behalf and made a way for Leo.
âPlease step aside!
Mr. Leo wants to have a word with Miss Laura.â
Jamesâs loud announcement captivated unwanted attention; I was stuck in an awkward situation as Zoe wailed in agony.
âI am sick, and you left me in the hospital to watch a match, mommy? Why donât you love me like Jane?
When she was ill, you stayed by her side all the time.â
Zoe complained about my preferences, comparing himself with Jane. My eyes burned with tears as he cried out, âI am also your son, mommy. Why canât I live with you and dad?â
I couldnât utter a single word in response and clutched him to my chest, my tongue felt heavy against the roof of my mouth.
Zoe was my lost child, the one I yearned to see for a long time. His distraught emotions stabbed a blunt knife into my chest rapidly. At that very moment, Leo finally got rid of his fans and stepped forward.
âSorry, Laura!
Zoe is just a child. He wanted to Before he could take away Zoe, I promised to visit him soon. My ego wasnât more important than my son.
âBe good, Zoe!
Mommy will spend this weekend with you.â
Leo was gone within minutes after creating a scene in public. I noticed the crowd of angry people around me, it crossed my mind.
Chapter 136 âLeo is blackmailing me to change my mind!â
Yes!
It could only be the reason, as he tagged along everywhere I went today, but his arrival at the stadium cost me my reputation.
Leoâs overzealous fans literally attacked me âMiss Laura, arenât you going too far in your selfishness?â
They all surrounded me like a criminal and started filming this scene, âYour son is suffering, why donât you live with Mr. Leo? After all, he loves you unconditionally, Miss Laura.â
Their collective queries and loud shouts twisted my guts, dropping my heart to my stomach. I was so harassed that I couldnât bear it.
The fans looked so enraged that I feared a flying punch hitting me in no time, seriously regretting my mistake of coming here alone.
Thankfully, a group of men instantly came to my rescue. I recognized the head of Brightâs security staff as he flashed his gun before that crowd.
âStop persecuting Miss Laura. Otherwise, I will call the police!â
But it was in vain!
Leoâs fans were ready to go to jail for him. One of them even yelled, âYou canât threaten us with the police. Miss Laura is tormenting our idol. We want an elucidation!â
I was on the verge of bursting into tears when Brightâs assertive tone resonated in the surroundings, silencing the whole opposition at once.
âLaura has no obligations to give an explanation to a bunch of strangers!â
