Long Time, My Baby Chapter 40 Gratitude

On the second morning, Lucian and Leah went to the Glory Group.

In the office, Charlie was reading documents.

Clang! Clang! Clang.

Without raising his head, Charlie said, "Come in."

The female secretary walked in gracefully and said with a smile, "Mr. Charlie, the president of MZ
group, Mr. Lucian together with Miss Ye has come to visit."

Charlie paused and looked up at the Secretary, "Which Miss Ye?"

"Miss Leah." The Secretary replied.

"What's the matter with them?" Charlie put down his pen.

"Mr. Lucian said he was here to thank you."

'Thank me? For what happened yesterday?'

"Invite them in."

He would like to see how Lucian would thank him.

"Yes, sir."

In the lounge, Leah grabbed her clothes and looked a little nervous.

"Nervous?" Lucian held Leah's waist and asked softly.

"A little?" Leah nodded.



Lucian smiled, "it's just an ex-boyfriend. Your real boyfriend is here. Why are you so nervous?"

Hearing this, Leah] glared at him. The tense atmosphere was ruined by him.

Lucian smiled more brightly when she saw a pair of almond eyes staring at him.

"Mr. Lucian, Miss Leah, Mr. Charlie invites you in." The female secretary walked into the lounge and
made a gesture of "please".

"Let's go." Lucian stood up, straightened his clothes and reached out his hand to Leah who was sitting
on the sofa.

Leah smiled at him and put her hand in his palm.

In the office, Charlie looked at the possessive hand on Leah's waist and pursed his lips, with a flash of
sadness in his eyes.

"Mr. Lucian, I'm sorry for the inconvenience." Charlie politely reached out his hand.

"You're welcome, Mr. Charlie." Lucian held his hand and looked at the man coldly.

Leah felt her hands on her waist tightened. She frowned and looked at Lucian. They seemed to be at a
stalemate.

"Please have a seat, Mr. Lucian." Charlie bent his long legs and sat on the sofa. Lucian held Leah's
waist and sat opposite him.

Charlie glanced at Leah and then looked at Lucian, "Mr. Lucian and Miss Leah, what brings you here
today?"

"In terms of my little girl's incident these days, thanks for your help." Lucian said politely, but there was
no warmth in her eyes.



"No, it's my pleasure." 'Little girl? They had only known each other for a few days. How could he call
her little girl.'

Bang! Bang! Bang! There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The female secretary came in and brought three cups of coffee. "Mr. Charlie, Mr. Lucian and Miss
Leah, please have some coffee."

"Please change into two glasses of water." Leah smiled. Lucian hadn't fully recovered yet. Coffee
wasn't good for her wound.

The female secretary took a look at Charlie and took two cups of coffee away.

Lucian didn't look at Leah, but smiled. His little girl was so considerate. She knew that coffee was bad
for his wound.

Somehow, Leah felt very happy. Her hands around her waist had never been loosened and even
tightened. She knew that Lucian understood what she meant. Well, it felt good to be understood.

"Mr. Lucian and Miss Leah don't like coffee?" Charlie sensed the strange behavior of the two people in
front of him and asked.

"She doesn't like coffee." Lucian nodded.

"I'm really sorry. It seems that Mr. Lucian and Miss Leah are on good terms. Miss Leah doesn't like it,
and Mr. Lucian doesn't drink either." Charlie teased deliberately, with a hint of jealousy in his tone.

Lucian sensed that there was something wrong with Charlie's tone, "Whether I like it or not, it's up to
her. I'll listen to her."



Hearing this, Leah blushed and bit her lips without saying anything. She pinched his waist with her little
hand.

With a false smile, Charlie stared at Leah and said through gritted teeth, "Mr. Lucian, you are so lucky
to have such a beauty in your arms."

Did they come to express their thanks today? Why did he feel that they were here to make him
uncomfortable? 'It's up to her.' Did it mean that Lucian would indulge Leah in everything? Well, did they
come to him to show off their love?

Ignoring the change of the expression on Charlie's face, Lucian glanced at Leah and said with a gentle
smile, "I think so, too."

Charlie felt goose bumps all over his body, and a nameless anger rose in his heart. He disgusted him in
his territory, "Miss Leah should not lack of people to chase, right?"

"Yes, but his pursuers are not worth mentioning in my eyes." Lucian looked at Charlie with provocation
in his eyes.

Charlie lost his temper. Did Lucian mean that he was nothing to him?

"It's natural that Mr. Lucian is so excellent. But I heard that Mr. Lucian has a girlfriend. Have you found
her?" Charlie picked up the coffee on the table, put it to his mouth, blew gently and took a sip.

"Drink some water, okay?" Lucian also took a glass of water from the table and put it in front of Leah's
mouth.

Leah pinched his waist and said, "I can do it myself."

Lucian put the glass in Leah's hand, raised her head and picked up another glass of water. "After I
have my little girl, I only know to cherish the person in front of me."



Charlie felt a tightness in his chest, "Why is the coffee so bitter?"

Lucian smiled, "I'm really grateful that you are willing to help me this time. I'll thank you with great
reward."

"Reward? Then how are you going to thank me, Mr. Lucian? " Said Charlie with a cold smile.

"Then what do you want, Mr. Charlie? As long as it is within my ability. " Lucian had expected his
answer.

"Your confidante." Staring at Leah, Charlie said slowly.

"I haven't found her yet. What's more, you can't take her away from me. You'd better think of another
one." Lucian squinted dangerously.

"In that case, please go back, Mr. Lucian. I haven't thought of the reward yet. You remember to owe me
a favor." Charlie asked them to leave. He felt that if they stayed in his office one more minute, he would
explode.

"Then we are leaving now." Lucian and Leah stood up and walked out of the office. On the way, Lucian
held Leah's waist tightly.

"Lucian, let go of me." Leah felt a little embarrassed to see so many people in the company looking at
them.

"No." Lucian stopped and held her in his arms. Under the watchful eyes of the public, he bit her ear and
slowly exhaled a trace of heat.

"Hurry!" Leah thought that she couldn't stay here any longer, so she dragged Lucian away.

"Ha ha." Lucian chuckled and let her hold his hand. The soft touch scratched his heart.



Angus and Zoe had come back. Lucian sent a message to Angus that the child should be in Z city.

At the airport, Leah was waiting for them with several people.

"Hi, Leah." When Angus got off the plane and saw Leah, he excitedly pulled Zoe and walked towards
her quickly.

"Hi, you must be tired all the way. Get in the car."

In the car, Zoe kept silent and looked at Leah timidly.

Sitting on the passenger seat, Leah looked at the rearview mirror and thought, 'I don't look terrible. Why
does this little girl look afraid of me?'.

"This must be Zoe. We haven't seen each other for a while. You are more beautiful." Leah tried her
best to make her voice sound friendly.

"That's right. My little Zoe is very beautiful, isn't she?" Angus looked at Zoe with complacency in his
eyes.

Zoe still didn't say anything, and the fear in her eyes was obvious.

Angus seemed to have noticed something. "Zoe', are you afraid of Leah?"

Zoe nodded honestly, "I hurt Miss Leah before. Does Miss Leah hate me?"

Leah thought the girl was more lovely in an instant. "Of course not. I've already forgotten that. Zoe, I've
always liked you."

"Really?" Zoe's eyes lit up in an instant.

"Of course it's true. I missed Zoe so much since we came back here."



"Can we be friends?" Zoe was a little childish. Maybe she was spoiled by Angus.

"Of course, I'm older than you. You can just call me Leah. I'll take you to have fun these days." Leah
didn't know why she liked Zoe so much.

"Leah, ha ha." Zoe smiled and squinted, revealing two canine teeth.

Seeing that Zoe was happy, Angus was also happy.

After a while, they arrived at the Great Garden. Hugh had already arranged a room for them. After they
settled down, Leah went out with Zoe.

In the study, Angus looked at Lucian strangely.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lucian frowned. He didn't like others to look at him like that.

"I heard that you were hurt before. You and Leah are on good terms." Angus rolled his eyes at him.

"Why don't you comfort me even if you know I'm injured?" Lucian glanced at him.

"All right, all right. My fault. I accept the punishment." Angus shrugged.

"I'm going to change the manager of the research and development department. You can temporarily
replace him and support my little girl for a period of time." Lucian said in a low voice. He knew that the
most direct way was to support her in the nearest place.

Angus was a little depressed. "I'm a CEO. You ask me to be your follower."

"Any problem?" Lucian raised his eyebrows.

"I want 55 percent of the profits from the first project of Leah." Angus stated his conditions.



"Aren't you afraid that she will lose money for her first project?"

"Is the person you Lucian fancies so bad? I found out that Leah has something to do with the Bai
family. Do you think she will lose money for the project she has done? " Angus sat up straight with a
gleam shining in his eyes.

Lucian smiled slowly. No matter whether she had anything to do with the Bai family or not, the person
he liked was definitely not bad.

"Zoe, where do you want to go?" Leah asked.

"I want to go to the amusement park." Zoe was a little childish.

"Okay."

In the amusement park, Leah accompanied Zoe to the ticket office of the roller coaster.

Looking at such a high and tortuous path, Leah swallowed and said, "Zoe, are you sure we want to
play this? It's so high. "

"Ha ha, Leah, are you afraid?" Zoe covered her mouth and laughed.

"Yes, I'm a little scared." Leah was a little embarrassed.

"Don't be afraid. I'll hold your hand..." Speaking of this, Zoe suddenly covered her head in pain.

"Zoe, don't be afraid. I'll hold your hand." A gentle male voice rang in her mind.

"Zoe. Zoe." Leah asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Zoe didn't say anything. Leah took her to a rest chair.



"Leah, a person who has lost the memory is living a good life now. Is it necessary to remember the past
memory?" Zoe muttered.

"The past is important, but you must cherish the present."

"Okay..."

"Zoe?" A man's voice came from above.

Leah raised her head and asked in surprise, "Jacob?"

"Leah, a person who has lost the memory is living a good life now. Is it necessary to remember the past
memory?" Zoe muttered.

“The past is important, but you must cherish the present."
"Okay..."
"Zoe?" A man's voice came from above.

Leah raised her head and asked in surprise, "Jacob?"
