I Can't Escape The Baby's Father After Returning Novel - Chapter 45

Millie recovered quickly, and a few days later, the doctor informed them that Millie could be discharged. After Melanda woke up, her condition began to improve, but after the doctor’s evaluation, he felt that she would have to rest in the hospital for a while longer. So Millie was discharged first, and her grandmother, Annie, stayed at home to take care of Millie; while Mike stayed in the hospital to take care of Melanda, and Mike’s mother, Mary, was responsible for delivering food to them. Mandy and Dave were busy with the wedding.

Everything seemed to have returned to normal. The most hair-raising scene was finally over. But there was still no definite news from the police. Mike and Melanda’s worries hadn’t been relieved.

This day, a young and handsome visitor came to the hospital. It was Leo.

He brought the vibe of the outside world, as well as flowers and fruits.

“Melanda, how are you feeling now? I’m sorry I only came to see you now. I heard that you were in trouble and I was very worried. I heard that you’ve been in a coma, so I couldn’t come and disturb you. It’s great that you woke up.” Leo’s eyes were filled with sincere worry.

“Thank you, Leo. I’m much better now,” Melanda said as she took Leo’s flowers, smelled them, and handed them to Mike.

Mike looked a little awkward. He took the flowers and placed it aside.

“Leo, since I won’t be there, I’ll have to trouble you to handle work matters. Is everyone okay?” As a colleague, Melanda felt guilty for being absent for so long.

“Don’t take it to heart. These are trivial matters. You have to get well soon. By the way, have the results of the investigation been released?” Leo asked.

This topic was Melanda’s biggest worry. Over the past two days, she and Mike had been carefully avoiding discussing this. They didn’t want to ruin the tranquil atmosphere. She didn’t expect to be asked by Leo. Mike looked at Leo angrily, but he didn’t seem to notice.

Melanda sighed and replied, “Not yet.”

“This is really worrying,” Leo said.

Mike’s frown deepened. Melanda looked at Mike, took his hand, and kissed it to comfort him. Mike glanced at Melanda and felt a little surprised. His frown spread, and he smiled. This was the first time she had been intimate with him in front of another man, especially in front of Leo. They smiled at each other.

Leo was shocked at first, but he quickly understood. “Hey, don’t show off in front of me! I’m really happy for you guys. Although this situation is worrying, as long as the two of you love each other, everything will be okay.”

“Thank you, Leo. Thank you for your blessing,” Mike said.

Due to the slightly awkward atmosphere, Leo chatted for a while before getting up to leave. After Leo left, Melanda and Mike couldn’t help but think about the topic Leo had just mentioned.

“It can’t be Leo, can it?” Mike said cautiously.

“Baby, no. Leo isn’t like that,” Melanda said firmly.

Mike felt like everyone was suspicious now. He also felt like he was being paranoid. He and Leo had been colleagues for so long. Leo was a simple-minded kind guy. It couldn’t be him.

“I still think that Jeffrey is suspicious. I wonder if the police found anything,” Mike said resentfully.

Melanda shrank into Mike’s arms, as if she wanted to use his warm embrace to dispel her worry and fear. Mike hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead.

“Baby, don’t worry. I believe the bad guys will leave some clues. The police will catch that bastard soon. Until then, I’ll be by your side 24/7.”

Mike tried to distract Melanda. “After I get discharged, I’m going to try to be a real father. Sweetheart, you have no idea how happy and nervous I am. I don’t know how to be a qualified father. ”

Melanda felt that it was a little funny. “You’re already a good father. There’s no need to worry at all. Look at how much Millie likes you. She already called you Daddy. This is the child’s acknowledgment of you from the bottom of her heart.”

“Really? I’ll try hard to be a good father. Baby, because of my stupidity, we wasted six years of our time and I made you suffer for nothing. From now on, I’ll use the rest of my life to love you and make it up to you. Believe me, okay?” Mike said passionately.

“Darling, it’s all in the past. We have to look forward. Now that our family of three is happily together, we have a bright future. Don’t mention those things again.”

Mike lowered his head and kissed the kind girl. He had to protect this hard-won blissfulness and happiness. He wouldn’t let anyone ruin it. Never!.
