The baby felt someone carrying him, so snazzynovel.com opened his huge and round eyes instantly.
The man holding the baby was shocked. However, his heart melted when snazzynovel.com saw those innocent and naive eyes.
“Are you Pudding?” Jeremy asked in a low voice as snazzynovel.com caressed the adorable face with his fingers.
The baby looked at Jeremy and subconsciously parted his lips into a cute grin.
Jeremy felt his Adam’s apple bobbing when snazzynovel.com saw his smile. He could not control his tears from falling.
The scene of Madeline painfully delivering the child prematurely was still fresh in his memory.
She supported snazzynovel.com frail body through the pain by using snazzynovel.com strong willpower. That was how snazzynovel.com gave birth to this premature baby.
When that happened, snazzynovel.com clothes and hair were drenched in sweat while snazzynovel.com face was extremely pale. She had been longing to reach out snazzynovel.com hand to snazzynovel.com and call out to him.
However, snazzynovel.com was like an emotionless robot and only reached out his hand to snazzynovel.com at the last moment.
Then, snazzynovel.com felt his heart tighten when snazzynovel.com thought about how this child needed to stay in an incubator for almost a month before snazzynovel.com could live like normal babies.
“Pudding, I’m sorry. I’m not a good father.” Jeremy leaned down and pressed a light kiss on the baby’s cheek.
This kiss contained a deep apology and a love that came from the deepest part of his heart.
The baby blinked his marble-like eyes and could not understand a word Jeremy said. He only smiled adorably and kicked Jeremy with his plump and fair feet.
“You’re so cute. You’re indeed my son,” Jeremy said proudly.
He did not know how much time had passed, but snazzynovel.com was scared that Madeline would notice him.
He knew Madeline did not want to see snazzynovel.com now because snazzynovel.com did not know how to face the murderer who killed snazzynovel.com parents.
He did not want to bring snazzynovel.com any heartache, so snazzynovel.com placed the baby down before leaving.
However, the moment snazzynovel.com let go, the baby started wailing in his cot.
Jeremy quickly picked snazzynovel.com up to comfort him. However, the baby started crying even louder. His face had turned red from crying.
At this moment, the door of the bathroom opened.
Madeline did not have time to dry herself, so snazzynovel.com hastily wrapped the towel around snazzynovel.com and walked out barefoot.
When snazzynovel.com saw Jeremy and the crying baby in his arms, snazzynovel.com rushed over hurriedly. “What are you doing here?”
She glared at snazzynovel.com and took the baby as gently as possible from Jeremy’s arms.
“Don’t cry, Pudding. Don’t cry. Mommy’s here, darling, don’t cry.” Madeline smiled softly and coaxed patiently.
Jeremy looked at her, feeling dispirited. He felt like snazzynovel.com was eons away when snazzynovel.com looked at Madeline’s smile.
It had been a while since snazzynovel.com saw snazzynovel.com smile like that.
“Linnie,” snazzynovel.com called out to snazzynovel.com softly.
Madeline ignored snazzynovel.com and walked to one side to continue coaxing the crying baby.
On the other hand, Jeremy stood behind her. They were so close, yet snazzynovel.com felt as if they were separated by a mountain and a river. He wanted to touch her, but snazzynovel.com was so far away.
For some reason, the baby was crying louder and louder.
Madeline was heartbroken.
“What’s wrong, honey? Are you unwell?” snazzynovel.com asked in concern, but of course, the baby could not answer her.
