Kelvin's cold gaze fell on Davon, subtly glancing at the man's left hand. Back at the TWILIGHT, he had fought with Aidan and used a dagger to cut Aidan's wrist.
Coincidentally, when Davon reached out his hand, a small piece of white gauze was accidentally revealed, exactly in the same spot as Aidan's injury. It was quickly covered by his black shirt, and even his black sleeve seemed to give off the same illusion.
Kelvin pursed his lips lightly, surrounded by a chilling aura as he walked towards Cheyenne. He reached out a hand, intending to help her carry Lewis. "Let me do it. He's heavy."
The little one had cried himself to sleep and was now peacefully lying in Cheyenne's arms.
Being nearly three years old, the child was indeed quite heavy, especially for someone like her who lacked experience in holding children.
Her arms felt sore after just a short while. She moved away from Kelvin's outstretched hand and subtly twisted her own tired wrists, her voice carrying a clear tone of distrust.
"No need, I'll take him back to bed. It's too noisy here."
"Miss Lawrence, please come with me."
The nanny tactfully guided Cheyenne towards the villa where Erica had lived. After a short distance along a cobbled path, they arrived at the child's villa, about ten meters away.
Cheyenne followed the nanny up to the second-floor children's room. The door opened, revealing a room decorated with an ocean theme. The ceiling and walls were hand-painted with various colorful fish, and toys were scattered on the floor.
Cheyenne gently placed Lewis on the toddler bed, carefully pulling the blanket over him and neatly tucking the corners before preparing to leave.
However, she underestimated the little one's dependence on her. She felt a small force pulling at her clothes from behind. She turned around and saw that he had woken up at some point, his fair and chubby little hand gripping her clothes tightly. His eyes were still closed, but the trembling of his thick eyelashes revealed his emotions.
Cheyenne's face formed a slight smile. She tried tugging her own clothes, and Lewis tightened his grip even more.
The scene was observed by the nanny, who smiled in surprise. "Master Lewis usually appears well-behaved, but he's actually not very approachable. Besides Master Kai and Madam Erica, no one is allowed to hold him. I didn't expect him to like you so much, Miss Lawrence."
Cheyenne was puzzled and surprised. After all, she had only met the little one a couple of times.
"Alright, you can go downstairs. I'll leave when Master Lewis falls asleep again."
"Okay."
The nanny left, closing the door behind her, and the room became quiet. It was so silent that Cheyenne could hear the little one's breathing.
Sure enough, he wasn't asleep. Lewis slowly opened his beautiful grape-like eyes, sat up with pursed lips, and crawled towards Cheyenne's embrace.
"Fairy sister..."
"Why aren't you sleeping? Are you hungry? Should I have someone prepare milk for you?"
"Fairy sister, carry me... to Mommy's room."
He opened his arms, waiting for Cheyenne to pick him up.
To Erica's room?
