Chapter From Secret Wife 85
Chapter 85
Leila came over with a pink fox in her arms, rubbing her eyes.
Leila was still wearing a onesie, her hair tousled but looking even more adorable, melting hearts. She walked straight to Gabriel, who was sitting on the couch, and crawled into his arms.
The nanny who was sent to take care of Leila explained, "Mr. Campbell, Ms. Robinson received an emergency call in the middle of the night and had to go out. When Leila woke up and couldn't find her mother, she came over to look for you."
Leila also spoke with red eyes, "Looking for mom."
Upon waking up and not seeing Hazel, Leila felt insecure and immediately thought of Gabriel in the guest
room.
The nanny had been standing guard at the master bedroom door, following Hazel's instructions, afraid that Leila would wake up and look for an adult.
Gabriel's ink-black beautiful eyes were filled with bloodshot veins from a sleepless night.
He lowered his gaze and looked at the child in his arms, who was tightly pulling on his shirt. The softest part of his heart was silently touched.
Gabriel gently patted the child's back, his tone filled with an unprecedented tenderness.
He did not look up and said lightly to the nanny,"Go and make formula milk."
Leila was obedient in his arms, with tired, red eyes. She pouted and said in a resentful tone, "I want to find Mommy."
Hazel wouldn't suddenly leave home and abandon her child, so it is highly likely that something happened at the laboratory again.
Leila, Mommy went to work, she will come back as soon as she finishes her work."
"Did uncle accompany you, okay?"
Just at that moment, the nanny had also prepared the milk powder, but it was the male butler who brought
it into the guest room and immediately retreated outside after handing it to him.
Gabriel observed the Robinson family's sense of propriety and boundaries in dealing with their
servants.
After all, the child was still young, and the nanny and the housekeeper were waiting outside, the guest room, worried that Leila would cry if she couldn't see her mother
People were also stationed outside the master bedroom door, waiting to go in and take care of Jaxon and Joshua when they woke up.
Leila was very well-behaved. Upon hearing Gabriel's words, she rubbed her eyes and nodded, saying, "Leila is waiting for her mom at home."
Gabriel smirked, "Good boy."
Leila, who was already not well-rested, fell asleep gradually amidst the man's deep soothing voice, without even finishing her milk powder.
Gabriel carefully took the bottle from her hands and carried her to the bed., * He sat at the bedside, with one hand gently patting the child's arm. His voice was deep and

magnetic, and soon the child fell fast asleep.
Perhaps it was because of blood ties...

Perhaps it
it was because of worrying matters, the answer no longer mattered... Perhaps it was just a night without closing my eyes...
Gradually, Gabriel maintained his position sitting at the bedside and fell asleep. The family photo of a family of five in the dream suddenly turned into reality. He came home from work and was greeted by Leila, who was holding the hands of her two brothers. They all called him "Dad" and as he looked up, he locked eyes with Hazel, who was watering the flowers inside the house. It was the most heartwarming family scene in his mind. In reality, the man with closed eyes unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth. On the other side, Hazel, who was busy at ST Laboratory, was focused and working with the team from Canada's laboratory to research the newly emerged virus from abroad. When she came out of the laboratory, the sky had already started to brighten. Worried about the children at home, they immediately returned home after finishing the final touches.
flickered As soon as I entered the house, I met a pair of dim and unclear ink eyes. Hazel's eyes slightly, and suddenly she thought that the paternity test results must have come out, right? When she left home by car, she seemed to have seen the Campbell Group's car hastily entering the neighborhood. Gabriel took the initiative to speak, "I came back."
The man, wearing casual clothes, sat on the sofa and turned his head upon hearing the noise at the door. Coupled with what he said to Hazel, it gave a strong sense of a husband waiting for his busy wife to come home.
Hazel averted her gaze and made a noncommittal sound, either out of politeness or indifference. She changed her shoes and was planning to go find her daughter and two sons, but she was stopped by the man who got up.
"Hazel, I wanted to hear it from your own mouth,"
He suppressed his emotions, lowering his voice by several degrees, "Is Leila... my daught Hazel looked at the man in front of her strangely. Hadn't the paternity test results come out yet? For Gabriel's question, she pondered over it in her mind, and in the end, she only gave him a cold
remark.
Hazel:"No."
She turned and left without hesitation, until she entered the toy house, and the followed closely behind her disappeared. gaze that
Hazel, who had been with the three children for a while, thought about the fleeting sadness that had crossed the man's face earlier, and her thoughts gradually wandered away from home. Noticing the change in her mother's emotions, little Leila immediately gave her a big, big hug. oking at the fluffy little head of my daughter in front of me, I couldn't help but reach out and touch it. 61.6%

Leila pressed her chubby cheeks against Hazel's face, her voice still soft. However, the words she Spoke surprised Hazel.
"Mum, Leila didn't want Dad, she only wanted Mum."
"...Leila?"
If surprise had a form, Hazel's hair would probably be standing on end right now!
She never expected that her daughter, who was just over a year old, could be so intelligent and sensitive. Hazel glanced at her two sons who were assembling a toy car nearby, and walked to the edge of the windowsill while holding her daughter.
She looked at her well-behaved daughter in her arms with a complex gaze, and restrained her voice, "Does Leila know her father?"
Leila nodded, "Uncle, it was my father."
If there was still a glimmer of hope before, at this moment, Hazel's heart is filled with endless guilt, like a tsunami that violently overturns all her thoughts.
In Hazel's eyes, only her daughter's clear and transparent eyes remained. Leila leaned in and left a heavy kiss on her cheek.
She opened her candy bag and took out a black-wrapped candy to hand it to her.
"Mom, Leila took her medicine obediently."
Hazel glanced at the time on her watch and indeed, I was time for her daughter to take her medicine. She unwrapped the black candy paper and fed the medicine inside to her daughter, her eyes filled with tenderness and love."Leila is such a good girl."
These were the medicines she specially prepared for her daughter.
The little one didn't like to drink powdered medicine, so Hazel came up with a way to transform the powdered medicine into something the child could accept. She also made improvements in the taste, and at least now the child doesn't resist taking medicine.
Leila concealed the pill disguised candy, without any resistance to taking the medicine, and even pulled out a pink candy, opened it, and placed it into Hazel's mouth. She, in turn, comforted her mother with a tender voice, "Mom, the candy will make the bitterness, go away."
It was precisely because of her obedience that Hazel felt she owed her daughter even more. She held the little person tightly in her arms and made up her mind, "If Leila wants to recognize her father, her mother can...
Leila shook her head in her arms, "Leila always loved her mother."
She playfully tugged at Hazel's clothes and continued, "Brother is good, uncle is good, but mom is the best."
Although she liked her brother a lot and now also likes her stepfather, if she had to choose between her mother and them, she would always choose her mother unconditionally and firmly. Realizing that her daughter knew everything all along, Hazel looked at her with even more affection in her eyes. This is the daughter she carried for ten months without kicking or making a fuss... 61.6%

Gabriel, who had been sitting in the living room all along, watched the mother and daughter next to the toy house window from a not too far but not
close distance.
Hazel was gently speaking to her daughter while looking down. Leila didn't know what she had said, Hazel's eyes had become slightly red. From his perspective, the woman rarely gave her daughter two candies today. One was wrapped in unfamiliar black packaging paper, and the other was in the familiar pink candy wrapper. Thinking about the candies Leila had previously stuffed into his pocket, Gabriel once again remembered the file bag he had ultimately
