Chapter194.
After a night’s rest, Hazel forgot about what had happened last night.

Hearing the slight movement before Leila woke up, she didn’t immediately open her eyes, wanting to see what Leila would do.
Leila woke up and didn’t make any noise.
Leila sat up and looked at her sleeping mother. She kissed Hazel and covered her with her thin blanket. Then she got off from the other side, stepping on the cushion.
Leila held the milk bottle on the bedside table and wore slippers. Then she went to the guest room
“Ethan, I want to drink milk.”
to find Ethan.
Ethan, who had not yet woken up, opened his eyes slightly and saw Leila. She was wearing a onesie and leaning by the bed looking at him attentively, holding a bottle in her hand.
He rubbed her fluffy hair with sleepy eyes and said slowly, “Five minutes. I will sleep for another five minutes.”
But Ethan carried Leila to the bed, took the bottle from her hand, and placed it on the bedside table, gently patting her back and starting to sing a lullaby.
Leila was confused.
She turned around, blinking
She counted silently: one, two, three…
innocently and confusedly, and started playing with her fingers.
Before she could count to ten, Ethan had
gotten up and obediently went to make formula for her.
In the living room outside the guest room, Leila’s formula milk and hot water were placed.
Ethan was more skilled at preparing milk than Hazel.
His eyes were barely open, but Leila managed to get her hands on the milk.
The temperature and the dosage were just right.
Ethan then continued to sleep after he covered her with a blanket.
Leila loved her handsome and caring uncle.
As soon as five minutes had passed, Ethan abruptly sat up.
He was just about to make milk for Leila when he saw
It didn’t take long to feel full.
her sitting on the bed, obediently drinking the milk.
Ethan touched his head in confusion and said, “Leila, why did you come here carrying the milk bottle by yourself today? Next time, call me earlier. I’m better at that than your mom.”
Leila had become accustomed to his behavior.
She nodded towards him while drinking milk, her eyes curved.
She felt Ethan adorable.
After finishing her milk, Leila was lifted by Ethan. Her legs habitually kicked in the air. She was carried to the bathroom to freshen up before being carried downstairs.
“Mom.”
Seeing Hazel drinking coffee in the restaurant, she immediately got down from Ethan’s arms and happily walked towards her, throwing herself into her arms and looking up at her with a smiling face.
Hazel indulgently scratched her nose.“Is the milk finished?”
Leila nodded and whispered, “Mom, Ethan forgot again.”
Upon hearing this, Hazel lowered her voice and said, “Did you tell him?”
Leila shook her head and said, “It’s a secret.”
When she was lifted by Hazel, she continued to say, “Protect Ethan.”
Leila had a smell of milk on her body, faintly accompanied by the lemon fragrance.
Hazel kissed her chubby cheek and said with a smile, “Hmm, Leila is such a good girl. From now on, we will protect Ethan together.”
Ethan took the coffee handed to him by the butler and thanked him.
Seeing the affectionate appearance of the two, Ethan felt jealous and said, “Leila, I treat you so well. Why don’t you get closer to me?”

Leila sat on her baby chair and made a funny face at him.
“I’m bashful.”

“Hmm? Who wanted to let her mom sleep a little longer and came to bother me? Who was it?” Leila smiled apologetically.
Hazel handed Ethan a piece of bread and reminded him to eat it while it was still hot. He had three meals a day but was still thin. A trace of worry crossed Hazel’s eyes.
It seemed that the medication previously given to Ethan became less effective.
When she came back last night, the lights in the guest room were still on.
To make Ethan go to bed earlier at night, recently Leila took him out for a walk every day. She went to wake him up at a set time every morning, but he still had a sleep disorder.
Due to his childhood experiences, Ethan was particularly sensitive to being stared at.
He smiled and said, “Hazel, I’m fine.”
Since returning to the country with Hazel, Ethan had Leila by his side every day. He could feel that he was more emotionally stable and no longer stayed awake all night.
Leila’s round, big eyes rolled back and forth between Hazel and Ethan as she secretly decided in her heart.
In the morning, after Hazel went to the laboratory, Leila pulled Ethan back to the room.
She patted the pillow and said in a childish voice, “Ethan, lie down.”
Ethan thought she was going to play the game again, so he obediently lay on the bed and watched as she held her favorite pink fox in one hand and dragged the blanket up to his shoulders with the other hand, unable to help but smile.
Leila took care of Ethan as she did to her doll. After tucking him in with a blanket, she stood up and went to press the button to close the
curtains.
The room immediately plunged into complete darkness.
Just as Ethan was about to speak, he felt his eyes being covered by a pair of small hands. He heard Leila imitating the voice of an adult soothing him to sleep, and there was a small hand gently patting his chest.
“Ethan, good boy. Go to sleep. Grow taller…”
In Leila’s view, what her mother worried about was Ethan not sleeping.
She used to be put to sleep like this by Hazel and Ethan, so she thought that doing the same would put Ethan to sleep.
Ethan’s eyes were not covered by the soft tiny hands.
Because it was pitch black inside the room, Leila’s hand was mostly covering his nose bridge, but Ethan felt like crying.
He closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and pretended to be already asleep.
Leila also lay down beside him, holding her pink fox, and soon she fell asleep.
Ethan opened his eyes and carefully pulled the blanket over her.
Although he couldn’t see Leila, he could faintly hear her muttering, “Sleeping. Hug me.”
Ethan sighed, “Silly girl…”
Unable to fall asleep at night, he caught a pleasant scent of milk on the child and gradually felt drowsy.
Hazel was halfway through. her journey when suddenly she realized she had forgotten

From the butler, it was learned that Leila pulled Ethan back to the room. Hazel slightly opened a crack in the door and saw them sleeping. Her heart softened, and she silently closed the door.
Hazel leaned against the wall by the door, silently smiling.
