Chapter 383

Louis released him roughly. His brows furrowed together in anger, and just when he wanted to snap, something soft grabbed his fingers.

For a moment, he was stopped short by the sudden sensation, so he blinked his eyes as he reorientated himself and looked down. He saw a child, who was only a few months old, looking at him with curious, rounded eyes. The child had a wide grin as he babbled nonsensical words.

Louis lowered his voice at the sight of a young one. “This is…”

Aidan tidied himself on the couch as he said composedly, “He’s my son.”

The anger that had subsided a little within Louis flared up again, and he shot a glare at Celia, unaware of the situation. She was rightfully startled by the fury in his eyes, which quickly clued her into what he was probably thinking. So, the instant she realized that he had gotten the wrong idea, she waved her hands frantically as though she was warding the devil.

“I’m only here to take care of the child under President Pearson’s orders. It’s not what you think it is!” Toward the end of her words, her tone even turned slightly shrill in her panic.

The knot between Louis’ brows loosened a little, and he turned to Aidan again. “What the hell is going on?”

“I’ll tell you the truth if you promise not to breathe a word about everything you saw here today to Leanna.”

“As long as you didn’t betray her, there’s no reason for you to be afraid of this.”

Aidan lifted his gaze at him. “I just don’t want to complicate things further.”

Well, considering that both men weren’t about to go on a stampede, Naomi knew that the person who just barged in wasn’t a bad person. Therefore, she turned her attention to Celia and said, “Celia, I’m so sorry. Please take the rest of the day off.”

Celia gave her a nod, dropped off the groceries on the dining table, and scurried off.

The second the door closed, Naomi picked up the child on the couch. “It’s feeding time for the baby. So don’t wait up.”

Naomi held the child in her arms with practiced ease and went into the room with the child leaning against her shoulder. The baby’s eyes were fixed on Louis as he flailed his arms around, trying to say something.

As Louis took a closer look at the child’s features, he suddenly had a thought in his mind.
