Chapter 353
Mistaken Marriage, Unexpected Love
Meanwhile, Laura stared into space with a blank expression on her face. During her conversation with Camila earlier, she heard
Forrest's voice clearly through the phone.
Even after the call ended, his voice lingered in her mind.
Even though it had been years, she still recognized his voice. Suddenly, the baby in the bed started wailing.
Laura immediately carried him in her arms.
âHe must be hungry,â Rowena said as she went to get the milk powder.
âLet me feed him.â Laura reached for the feeding bottle.
Before giving the milk to the infant, she tested its temperature by placing a drop on the palm of her hand.
âDoes he have a name?â Laura asked.
Rowena replied, âOnly a nickname. Heâs called Joe.â Camila gave the baby this name to honour its twin.
Although it was gone, nothing would change the fact that there had been a time when the child could have been born into this
world.
Laura commented, âI guess thatâs what we're going to call the Little one until Mila comes up with a formal name.â
Rowena gazed lovingly at the child in Lauraâs arms. She found him handsome despite the fact that he was still a newborn and
his face was rather wrinkled. âDoes he look Like Mila?â
âIt's too early to tell who he takes after.â Laura gazed down at the child.
âHe has to take Milaâs surname regardless of who he takes after,â Rowena stated.
Laura did not disagree
âOf course, he'll take Milaâs surname.â
Suddenly, Lauraâs phone rang.
Rowena reached out to get the child from Laura.
âGo ahead. Answer the phone.â
Once Laura handed the baby to Rowena, she grabbed her phone. The number Camila used to call her earlier was displayed on
the screen.
âIt must be Mila.â
She accepted the call and brought the phone to her ear. âHello, Mila?â
The voice was, as always, angelic and soft, which never failed to calm him. But perhaps because it had been a long time that
Forrest hadn't heard her voice, his heart was unusually beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his chest. Unable to reply
right away, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
In fact, Forrest had many things to say. No! He had many questions to ask. But it seemed his throat went dry, and no words
came out.
On the other end of the line, Laura only heard the breathing sound but no response. Thinking that Camila didnât hear her well,
she said, âMila, are you there?â
