Chapter 182

When Leanna and Zoe went out, Carly’s child was crying. Carly couldn’t coax the child well.

Seeing that, Leanna couldn’t help but stop and look over instinctively. That child was just a four-month-old.

Seeing the child cry, Leanna felt sadness and walked over slowly.

Aware of her approach, Carly hugged the child tighter and turned away.

Leanna asked softly, “Can you let me hold the baby?”

Carly didn’t answer in time, and no one knew whether it was from nervousness or hesitation.

However, Carly couldn’t refuse Leanna when she met Leanna’s gaze.

Carly had sleepless nights because of the drowning incident that involved Leanna. Moreover, she had heard the news about Leanna’s miscarriage.

As a mother, she could understand Leanna’s feelings.

When Leanna was about to leave as she thought Carly would refuse, she saw Carly handing over the child.

After a stunned pause, Leanna cautiously reached out to take the child.

Strangely, the child suddenly stopped crying after the child got into her arms. The child looked at Leanna with round eyes while she waved little hands in the air and giggled.

Looking at the little child in her arms, Leanna slowly smiled.

Zoe came over. “Nana, I think the baby likes you.”

Carly felt that it was peculiar, as the child gave her lots of trouble and would immediately cry whenever a stranger came. It was the first time the child laughed happily.

Georgina stood aside. Although she was silent, her gaze was icy.

Leanna didn’t hold the child for long and quickly returned the child to Carly. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” When Carly took the child back, the child’s gaze followed Leanna, as if reluctant to leave her.

Leanna smiled at the baby, then said to Zoe, “Let’s go.”

As soon as they left the store, they heard Georgina’s voice. “Miss McKinney.”

Leanna stopped. Turning around, she asked, “Miss Crossley, what’s the matter?”
