Love in Prime Years

Chapter 37 Leigh is My Son

"Hello, Leigh!" Arthur smiled, "I want to be your mother's boyfriend, and in the future, I would be your

father!"

"Daddy ..." Leigh gently murmured this name and fell into deep thought, and the light in his eyes

disappeared gradually.

Arthur thought Leigh disliked him, so he became nervous, "Leigh, don’t you like me? Do you think I'm

too bald? I really like Amelia, and I hope you can support me and Amelia to be together." Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Leigh knew Arthur had misunderstood him, so he hurriedly explained, "I like you very much, if you can

be my father, I would be very happy."

Depressing all the loss in his heart, Leigh smiled, and he could feel that the uncle in front of him was a

good person. Although he wanted his biological father to like him and his mother, his father treated his

mother too bad, and he didn't want to ask for more.

Moreover, he might not be able to stay with his mom for long. If he died, he wanted someone who

could take good care of his mom in the world, and then he could feel at ease.

"Really?" Arthur looked surprised. Seeing Leigh nodded, he stammered with excitement, "Well ... well

... well, Leigh, you call me dad from now on! I think I have a destiny with you, the first time I see you, I

think you are my son!"

Of course, Amelia didn't want Leigh to call Arthur's Daddy. When she just wanted to say something,

Leigh had already said, "Dad!"

Amelia felt today's misunderstanding was too much. She had to explain, "Leigh, Arthur is just a friend

of mine, and you should call him Uncle in the future!"

"Amelia, it's not right for you to say that. Leigh likes me and is willing to call me Dad, and you cannot

force him to change his words! Children also have their own opinions. You should respect Leigh."

Amelia was stunned. Why did she feel that Arthur's preposterous argument seemed to be quite

reasonable?

Leigh knew it would be difficult for Amelia to fall in love with Arthur, so he decided to help Arthur.

Although it was the first time he and Arthur met, Leigh liked him from the bottom of his heart. And Leigh

felt Arthur was much better than that man who bullied his mother. It was good if Arthur could be his

father.

"Mommy, I like him, I want to call him daddy." Leigh winked pitifully at Amelia, who instantly swallowed

back the words that had reached her mouth.

In Amelia's life, what she couldn’t refuse was Leigh's request. Even if she didn’t like Leigh to call Arthur

Dad, she couldn’t blame Leigh at this time.

"Amelia, did you hear that? Leigh likes me, he wants to call me daddy!" Arthur smiled and was very

cocky.

"Mom, will you let me call him Daddy? I really want dad ..."

Amelia was speechless. Well, in the face of their offensive turns, what could she say or do besides

compromise?

Seeing Amelia no longer protesting, Arthur was too happy. He sat on the edge of the bed and gently

grasped Leigh's hand, “Don't worry, Leigh, I will take good care of you and your mother in the future,

and wouldn’t let you suffer any grievance."

Leigh didn’t answer but said to Amelia, "Mom, I'm hungry, and I want to eat the braised pork in the

canteen."

"Arthur, please take care of Leigh, I'll go to the canteen to get some food, and be back soon." After that,

Amelia took the card and quickly walked towards the canteen.

Leigh deliberately put Amelia off because he wanted to say something to Arthur.

"Dad, you like mommy very much, right?"

"Of course! I fell in love with her at the first sight. I am going to marry her, and she will be my wife!"

Arthur said incomparably serious.

"Dad, in the future, will you help me take good care of mommy?"

"I have a very serious illness. It will cost a lot of money to cure me. Mom is working really hard to earn

money to cure me. I don't want mom to work so hard anymore. If one day I die, you must be very, very

good to mom."

"Leigh ..." Arthur's eyes were sore. He hurriedly turned his face away to keep the tears from falling. He

wiped his eyes and said very confidently, “Leigh, you will be fine! It is hard for Mom to make money, but

Dad is rich! I will definitely cure your illness and make you and your mother happy in the future."

"Daddy, you can't make my mom cry in the future. I don’t want my mom cry. Every time mommy cries, I

am so heartbroken."

Seeing Leigh was so sensible, Arthur felt distressed. He gently rubbed Leigh’s little head, "Leigh, you

rest assured! Amelia will be my woman from now on! My woman, who dares to make her cry? Whoever

dares to mess with your mommy, I will make him cry!"

"Daddy, you're so nice." Leigh said to Arthur sincerely.

So when Leigh praised him, Arthur was so happy that he could hardly close his mouth. And he wanted

to take his heart out to show Leigh how much he loved Amelia.

Soon, Amelia came back with the food, and she also prepared one for Arthur. Arthur got used to eating

the most delicious food, but he felt special when he ate the simple dishes.

Arthur thought happily, “I am eating with Amelia, and I will be happy even if I eat wild vegetable.”

After lunch, Arthur made an appointment to have dinner with Leigh and Amelia and then left with

satisfaction.

Leigh was now able to get out of bed, and the doctor said he could leave the hospital for a few hours,

so Arthur planned to take Leigh outside for some fresh air at night. Children of Leigh's age were most

active, so he didn't want Leigh to remain in the hospital with smell of sterilizer all day long.

As soon as he got into the car, Arthur hummed a song excitedly, but he felt it was not enough to

express his excitement.

After thinking for a while, he took his phone and dialed Lawrence's number, "Lawrence, I'll treat you to

dinner tonight!"

"I'll bring my son along! You and Patrick and the others should prepare gift for him!"

After calling Preston and Patrick, Arthur happily put his phone back.

Amelia didn't want to have dinner with Arthur, but Leigh was so excited about the evening dinner, and

she couldn't bear to let him down, so she agreed to let Arthur come and pick them up.

Arthur had helped her a lot, so she planned to treat him for this meal tonight. She planned to find a

small restaurant, but she didn't expect that Arthur brought her and Leigh to go to the Scent Club.

She had never been to the Scent Club before, but she had heard of its name. It was said that a pot of

tea here cost at least five or six thousand dollars, and a meal could cost one hundred thousand dollars

or more.

Amelia didn't want to waste money here. When she wanted to suggest Arthur change to a cheaper

place, she saw Lawrence and Lillian coming in.

Arthur took Leigh in his arms and joyfully introduced Leigh to Lawrence, "Lawrence, you're here! Let

me introduce to you, this is my son, Leigh!"
