Their Bundle Of Joy

Chapter 25 Heart-Shaped Cufflinks

Isabel vaguely opened her eyes, only to gaze directly into the eyes of Aiden. It was as if a vortex had

sucked all her body and mind into it. She panicked and struggled hard, "I... I’m sorry, I seem to drink a

little too much. "

"The Remy Martin was too strong, we’ll take red wine next time."

There…there is a “next time”?

Isabel nodded vaguely in confusion.

"Can we go?" Aiden frowned as he released Isabel. He still felt awkward when he remembered that he

once saw the red dots on her body.

"Yes, I can do it myself." Isabel waved her hand towards Daniel, and the little brat came over to hold

her hand.

After that, with Aiden upfront, Isabel and Daniel at the back, they walked out of the lounge together.

The waiters on the red carpet lined up neatly and uniformly as they gazed over in Aiden’s direction

without blinking when they saw him.

It was definitely a sight not to be missed.

Isabel was swaying as she walked, she really drank too much.

She would have fallen if it wasn't for Daniel's strenuous efforts to support and hold her.

"Mr… Mr Howard, please wait for me." Isabel panicked as she witnessed Aiden entering the elevator.

It seemed like she was stepping on cotton, with one foot high and another foot low. Every step she took

was unsteady and off-balance, threatening her to nearly fall down several times.

Aiden frowned, stretching his long legs out of the elevator, he leaned forward to picked Isabel up. He

looked towards Daniel, who was stunned speechless and said, "Tug on my shirt, don't walk away."

"Yes." Daniel looked at Aiden in admiration, what a strong man he is. After all, he was unable to pick

mummy up.

Isabel did not realize at all, that all the way from the elevator to the Maybach, she was the focal point of

the entire Grand Hyatt Club. It was unfortunate that the three friends of Aiden's were not there tonight.

Otherwise, there would be a great show to witness.

Isabel fell asleep.

Initially laying on Daniel's lap, Aiden couldn't resist seeing her body weight exert pressure against the

tiny figure of the child, so he held her against his own body instead. After this, she fell asleep directly in

his arms as if it was intentional.

Pushing her away and moving back.

Pushing her away, and moving back again.

Aiden had no choice but only to compromise in the end.

It seemed like he owed this woman in his past life, giving her the opportunity to offer her his first hug

several times, second hug and so on...

What he did not know was that the first hug he gave her wasn't the one at the Grand Hyatt Club five

years ago, but the one on that night seventeen years ago.

Because he had been drinking, it was Ewan who was driving.

Initially, Ewan thought that his CEO would sit in the passenger seat and allow both the mother and child

to sit at the back. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

He did not expect that Aiden would take the back seat all of a sudden.

Remembering that he was the one who personally sent Isabel to the police station five years ago,

would she settle old scores with him once Isabel and Aiden started dating?

Just thinking about this, Ewan's eyelids trembled in fear.

The car stopped.

It was stopped downstairs of the apartment building of T University.

Not only was Isabel asleep, Daniel, who always slept early, was also asleep.

Aiden picked Isabel up. Ewan took the initiative of his own accord to pick Daniel up, seeing Aiden

digging for house keys in Isabel’s bag while holding her at the same time. It gave a feeling as if the

CEO suddenly had a complete family.

It would be nice if all three of them were a family.

At least the CEO would no longer be alone.

As the door opened, Ewan hurriedly placed Daniel on his tiny bed, "CEO, let me send you back."

It’s alright, you should go back first." Initially, Aiden wanted to put Isabel down.

However, the sleeping lady's hands gripped tightly on his arm, as if they were growing roots. He tried to

pull her away twice but failed, so he could only do it slowly.

"Good." Ewan looked at Aiden like he was looking at a monster, according to Larry, he had only seen

the CEO hold two women after all these years.

No, the first one was just a six-year-old girl, and the second one, Isabel, was only considered a real

woman.

Ewan was just trying to test him, but he did not expect that Aiden was actually going to stay.

Blinking his eyes in awe, he swiftly moved towards the door, "CEO, I'll leave first then."

The door gently closed.

There were only the three of them left in the tiny apartment at that time.

Daniel's limbs stretched as he slept more soundly.

Isabel was still nestled in Aiden's arms, refusing to let go of him in any way.

Holding the lady in his arms with one hand, he had the key that opened the door in the other hand.

The only reason he stayed was solely because of a small pendant on the key ring.

A heart-shaped cufflink to be exact.

These kinds of cufflinks were custom made.

This was customized exclusively to nobody else but Aiden.

However, the cufflink on Isabel’s keyring had probably been hanging on the key for decades, and had

been worn out to the point where it had no edges, just leaving a smooth surface.

With a light touch, Aiden removed the cufflinks from the key ring.

This was the first time he saw people taking cufflinks for a pendant.

And taking what might have been his cufflinks as a pendant was even more of a “first” for him.

He had recycled all of his clothes since he was a child, even if they were too small to wear. His cufflinks

were also all recycled.

After all, they were made of gold.

Playing with the shining cufflink in his hand, Aiden looked down at the Isabel who was lying in his arms.

She slept in his arms so defencelessly every time, as if she had made sure that he was a decent man

that would never do anything bad to her.

Or, was she defenseless towards any men?

Thinking of this, Aiden put the cufflinks away, then let go of Isabel’s fingers one by one before she was

placed on the bed.

The pink bed, like a fantasy, was every girl's favourite colour.

Perhaps she felt uncomfortable sleeping with a tight collar, Isabel reached out to untie her collar in

confusion. This time, the skin by her collar was clean and free from any red spots.

Isabel’s skin was soft and tender. Gazing at it, Aiden realized that he had seen enough of what he

should see.

After thinking about it, he still decided to take off her shoes and loosen two more clothespins.

Back then, Ewan had already taken the tiny shoes off Daniel. Looking at both mother and child

sleeping so sweetly, Aiden then turned around and tucked the cufflinks down his pocket.

After taking just two steps, he felt that what he had done was inappropriate. What if the cufflinks did not

belong to him but were somebody else’s with the same model?

Wouldn't it be wrong to take it away like this...

In the end, he took a pair of scissors, cut off the cufflinks on his sleeve to hang it onto Isabel’s keyring,

before he turned around and left.

The door opened as fresh air invaded the room. Aiden who initially did not drink too much, was almost

half-awake now.

"Mr Howard, don't go, please don't go..." a lady murmured from the bed behind him.

It was Isabel.

She was asleep, and her dreams were all about Mr Howard.

It must be Adam.

He suddenly felt that sending her home was a joke.

If she liked Adam, she should not mess with him in the future anymore, even if she somehow stole this

cufflink from him...
