Lawrence pursed his lips and remained silent. He thought, perhaps Elliot had other reasons... but they had nothing to do with him.
After Rose finished speaking, she took Leah's hand and said warmly, "Leah, let's go back?"
"Okay." Leah looked up at her mother and replied.
After Rose left, she tried to appear calm but still felt uneasy inside. The little one walking beside her sensed her mother's mood and smiled while tugging on her hand.
Rose turned to the little one standing beside her in confusion and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"Mommy, look at me pouting like a balloon?" Leah pouted with a funny expression on her face as she looked at her mother.
As soon as Rose turned around, she saw the cute expression of her daughter. All of the worries disappeared instantly.
She indulgently reached out to touch Leah's head. "Leah is so cute."
"Mommy, that guy is just a jerk who doesn't know how good you are! You're such a beautiful fairy. Such a man is unworthy of you getting angry." After finishing this sentence confidently and standing upright in front of her mommy, she had her hands on hips. "You know what? You're the cutest when you smile!"
"Um." Rose responded happily before bending down directly to pick up the little one in front of him. "Leah is Mommy's little angel."
"Mommy is Leah's fairy." Leah's chubby little hand rubbed Rose's neck earnestly before she kissed it once seriously.
Rose smiled slightly as relief filled both eyes...
After returning to the the Harper Villa, Rose let Leah play by herself for awhile while preparing for bath time.
Unknown to Rose was that after entering into the bathroom alone, Leah was lost deep in thought.
