Long Time, My Baby novel Chapter 24

In the evening, Lucian put off his work and went back to the Great Garden early.

"Sir, you are back." Seeing that Lucian's car stopped at the door, Hugh hurried to greet him.

"Where is Leah?"

"Miss Leah refused to come out of her room. She didn't have lunch either. Please go and persuade Miss Leah. It's not good for her stomach." An anxious look appeared in Hugh's eyes.

"I see." Lucian frowned. Didn't she have lunch? Why did she lock herself in the room?

He went straight upstairs. Leah's room was next to his.

"Little girl, are you there?" Lucian knocked on the door.

The answer was silence.

"I know you are here." Lucian pushed the door open and saw the scene in front of him. His heart skipped a beat.

The temperature of the air-conditioner in the room was very low, and Leah curled up in the corner motionlessly.

"Little girl, what's wrong?" Lucian was a little flustered and hurriedly carried Leah to the bed.

"Go away." Leah mumbled weakly with a red face.

Lucian touched Leah's forehead and panicked, "Why is it so hot? Little girl, wake up. "

"Hugh, call the doctor."

Half an hour later, Leah was put on a drip on the bed.

"Mr. Lucian, Miss Leah just caught a cold. It's not a big deal, but she has an old disease, a severe cold in the spleen, stomach and womb, and some malnutrition. This cold is not only caused by the low temperature in the room this afternoon. In recent days, Miss Leah has caught a cold, but she didn't pay attention to it. She must have a good rest, or I'm afraid there will be a big problem. " Doctor Ye sighed. The girl in front of her was so young and weak.

"Thank you, doctor." Lucian nodded slightly.

"This way, please." Hugh sent the doctor away.

Lucian sat on the edge of the bed and slowly held her slender hand, with a complicated look in his eyes.

"You are all liars, liars..." Leah murmured with tears in her eyes.

Looking at her haggard little face, Lucian felt very sorry for her. He bent over and kissed her mumbling little mouth, "Don't cry, my little girl." A big hand gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.

"Bang!" a soft hand slapped on Lucian's face, and then she struggled.

"No, it's so cold. brother L, help me. Mom, where are you? Boo... Hoo... " Leah cried even harder as if she had a nightmare.

Lucian felt a sharp pain in his heart. He hugged her slender body and kept coaxing, "Little girl, I'm your brother L. I'm back. Don't cry, okay?"

"Waah..." Leah hugged Lucian tightly and cried even louder, "brother L, you're finally back. They all bullied me. Waah... It's so cold. I don't want to stay in the ice house. It's so dark, so cold... Waah..."

Lucian held her tighter and said, "Little girl, don't be afraid. It won't be cold anymore. I'll help you teach them a lesson, okay?"

"Okay." Leah's sobbing gradually faded away and fell asleep.

Lucian tucked herself in and pulled a long face. A hint of cruelty flashed through his black eyes. Ice house? Did his girl once stay in the freezer? Good, very good.

Clang! Clang! Clang.

"Come in."

Hugh came in and said, "Sir, Miss Leah didn't have lunch, and now she is very weak. I ordered the kitchen to cook some porridge. "

"Well, put it on the table."

"Yes, sir."

"Go and investigate Ye clan as soon as possible." He wanted to know what his girl had experienced these years.

"Yes, sir."

"You can leave now."

He glanced at Lucian's cold face and walked out of the room.

"Okay..." Leah moved her body.

"Little girl." Anxiety was written all over Lucian's face.

"Mr. Lucian." Leah opened her eyes slowly and was surprised.

"HMM." Lucian immediately kissed her when he heard these two words.

"What did you call me?" Lucian squinted.

Leah blushed, pouted and mumbled, "Lucian."

Lucian smiled, "Good girl. Get up and have some porridge."
