Chapter 1636 Call Him Richard (Part Three)


    "Don''t worry about it. They''re just some small scratches. I bet they''ll heal quick enough. Wait..." Daisy


    paused, looking at Edward''s hand as well. "You''re hurt too! What happened?" she asked in surprise,


    forgetting about her own wounds. When Leena was holding onto her hand earlier, Daisy knew she


    would unintentionally end up scratching with her nails. These wounds, though, were nothingpared


    to the injuries that she would expect during missions.


    "Oh, all right. Now I get it! Was it all Leena''s doing? Seems like we''re both her enemies who deserve to


    be punished." Edward chuckled. It seemed like they were asking for it, in a strange way, since they


    simply adored Leena so much.


    "Just don''t take it to heart," she said, and then looked at Leena affectionately. "I don''t even want to call


    them wounds. I have to go now. Mark is waiting outside." The new mother was still very much tuckered


    out and still asleep.


    "All right," Edward said, looking at her. "Let me walk you to the car." Before Daisy could object, he took


    her other hand and headed for the door. Although he didn''t seem like the type, he disyed his love


    and affection brazenly for all to see. Without looking back, he simply ignored the amused people in the


    room who were jeering at them.


    "Bye, everyone! Please take care of Leena and the baby," Daisy said hastily. Being dragged by


    Edward, all she could do was waving good-bye over her shoulder while following him.


    "Bye, Daisy!" the others answered in unison. "Don''t worry, we''ll take good care of them!" "Thanks for


    everything, Daisy!" Duke shouted after them, just before they left the room.


    "I''m surprised that Edward didn''t get mad after knowing that Daisy has got hurt," Rain whispered in a


    low voice. "Seems that Leena really has a good influence on him." It was just odd, in his opinion, to see


    his overbearing boss justugh it off. Had it happened another time in the past, Edward would''ve


    definitely flipped out about it.


    "Didn''t you know?" Tom said, bursting intoughter. "Thest time when Leena fell down ''cause of you,


    he managed to swallow back his anger and didn''t blow up." It probably sounded like an exaggeration,


    but Leena was the apple of Edward''s eye as well. Seeing her like a real sister, his love for the woman


    was no less than Duke''s.


    "Well," Rain flinched. "That''s good to know." ''Thank God, '' Rain thought to himself. ''If I pulled


    something else funny earlier, he might have knocked the living daylights out of me!''


    After some time, Leena finally woke up. One of her first questions was regarding the baby as she was


    eager to see what the little guy looked like. She needed to have a look at what she got after all those


    tears she shed from such painful childbirth.


    "You''re so mean, Leena. We''ve been worried to death because of you. Shouldn''t you at least say thank


    you andfort us first?" Rain asked. Always the most talkative, he was ignored by the others again.


    "Haha!"ughed Leena. "So sorry about that. I just wanted to see my baby so much that I forgot to


    consider your feelings." She looked at everyone. "Thanks so much, everyone! I''m fine. I hope I didn''t


    cause you all so much trouble." A sense of happiness enveloped her as she saw everyone''s


    expression. Although Kevin couldn''t make it back, she had them to support her. And she had an inkling,


    that these men would always be there for her in the future as well.


    "We''re all good. Rain was just talking nonsense," Tom said, giving Rain the stink eye. "Just a moment,


    I''ll ask the nurse to get the baby." Knowing Leena wouldn''t be able to rx until she saw her son, Tom


    went out immediately to have that arranged.


    "Eat some soup, Leena," Duke said, passing the chicken soup brought by Lucy. "You need to get back


    your strength if you want to hold your baby."


    "Sounds great," Leena replied with a sweet smile. "Thank you, brother." She tried to sit up, but


    clenched her teeth when she felt pain in her lower body. Edward immediately stood up to help her.


    "You don''t have to get up," he said. "Let me lift the upper part of the bed so that you can sit up." Even


    though he was clueless about what new mothers would go through, he understood why Leena frowned


    and offered to help.


    "Let me help you eat, Leena," Rain said, walking over to her bedside. "I want to make amends." Every


    time he thought of the mistake hemitted, he felt resentful. Fortunately, Leena was fine, or he would


    have never forgiven himself.


    "Seriously?" Leena giggled. "I''m not a baby," Leena refused, although she was smiling. "I think I can


    eat fine by myself." Though she hadn''t regained her natural color yet, she looked just as sweet like


    before.


    "Why not let him since he volunteered, Leena?" Duke said, trying to convince her. If someone wanted


    to help him with taking care of his sister, who was he to object? He could use all the help he could get


    to make his sister feel at home while she was recovering at the hospital.


    "All right then," Leena said slowly. After a few spoonfuls, however, the baby was brought in by Tom.


    The food was forgotten at once, and all her attention was focused on her son as she reached out to


    hold it.


    "Here, Leena. Take him slowly now," said Tom, putting the baby carefully in her arms. Maybe the little


    guy sensed his mother''s presence, as he finally opened his eyes and kept rolling them in Leena''s


    direction. He looked absolutely adorable with such innocent twinkle in his eyes.


    "He has such nice skin. Much smoother than mine," Leena eximed. She reached out to touch his


    cheek gently, fearing that she might caress him too hard. Looking at his face, her eyes welled up with


    tears. A wave of warmth rushed over her, leaving her almost speechless.


    "Of course! After all, he''s just a baby, while you''re a mother already. I''d be surprised if your skin''s better


    than his!" Rain teased. He, too, liked the chubby little guy very much. His praise for him was almost too


    generous for someone like Rain.


    "Our doctors did his checkup just now. Everything''s fine, except that he has mild jaundice. What you


    can do for now is to nurse him in the following days, and from there, we can observe whether it can


    clear itself. If not, I''ll treat him with blue light radiation," Tom said confidently. As he knew that mild


    jaundice in newborn babies wasmon, due to their livers not being fully developed, he didn''t worry

    too much. To be sure though, he nned to check the baby''s progress himself.


    "Is it serious?" Leena, on the other hand, was instantly filled to the brim with worry. Although she had


    witnessed Eden receive blue light treatment before, she still couldn''t stop herself from worrying when it


    happened to her own son.
