Chapter 1222 Laney Wanted To Separate

Ian brought breakfast for Laney the next morning. As soon as he entered the corridor, he saw Garrett

sitting near the ward.

His eyes were red, and his face was evidently tired. It was apparent that he had been awake all night.

Ian sighed and handed a set of breakfasts to Garrett. “Mr. Harding, please have something to eat,” he

said with concern.

Garrett pushed the breakfast away and mumbled, “I’m not hungry.”

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his stomach began to growl. A tinge of embarrassment

appeared on his face, but Garrett pursed his lips and remained quiet.

Ian shook his head with a smile and passed the breakfast to Garrett. “Have some, Mr. Harding. I’ve got

this one prepared for you,” he insisted.

After a moment of silence, Garrett accepted the breakfast and said awkwardly, “Thank you.”

Having seen Garret accepted the breakfast, Ian walked into the ward and found Laney and the baby

still sleeping. He then exited the room quietly and sat silently beside Garrett.

Meanwhile, Garrett had his breakfast in silence. He was really starving as he eaten anything since

yesterday. Despite his hunger, he was still eating calmly and elegantly.

Ian studied Garrett from head to toe and suddenly understood why Laney loved him so much.

Judging from appearance alone, Garrett was indeed superior to others.

Suddenly, Garrett stopped eating and turned to Ian, who was in a daze. He lowered his head and

muttered, “I’m sorry for what happened yesterday.” He was apologizing to Ian as he almost attacked

him yesterday.

Ian regained his senses. He smiled warmly and replied, “It doesn’t matter. The situation was

complicated and chaotic yesterday. You were just upset and couldn’t control your emotions. Don’t

worry, I understand.”

Garrett fell silent again.

After a while, he complained, frustrated, “Laney knew that Kailee had framed me. Those photographs

don’t even capture the truth. Why is she still so angry? Why can’t she forgive me?”

Ian didn’t answer the question. Instead, he asked, “Mr. Harding, will you forgive Mrs. Harding if you see

her being intimate with another man?”

Garrett was surprised by the question. However, he nodded and replied absent-mindedly, “Of course, I

will. I love her so much…”

Ian smiled kindly and continued asking, “If you are often ignored and unhappy in your relationship and

find that Mrs. Harding has an affair with another man, will you forgive her?”

Garrett was stunned and stammered, “Is… Is Laney unhappy with me?”

Ian’s smile dropped, and he sighed before answering, “From what I’ve seen, Mrs. Harding had been

unhappy, depressed even, before the delivery.”

Ian paused for a second before he continued, “Not only did she need to worry about the harassment

from your parents, but she also had to guard against Lola. Besides, you were often busy with work and

ignored Mrs. Harding’s emotions. Your ignorance was her greatest trigger.”

Garrett was speechless.

He thought about what Ian had said and recalled the occasional sadness in Laney’s eyes. Suddenly, a

great sense of guilt rose welled up inside him. “Why… Why didn’t she tell me?” Garrett murmured,

looking dull and listless.

“Mrs. Harding didn’t want to cause you any worry,” Ian shook his head helplessly and replied. “Besides,

did you not find anything amiss when the photo and the recording pen were sent in the name of your

mother? It shows that your mother trusts and favors Kailee. On the other hand, your mother blames

Mrs. Harding whenever she has the chance. It’s hard for anyone to accept such differential treatment.”

Garrett felt guiltier when he heard Ian’s words. He had to admit that he had been ignoring Laney’s

feelings.

Just then, the baby’s cry sounded from the ward, interrupting their conversation.

Ian passed Laney’s breakfast to Garrett and gestured to him to enter the ward and give the breakfast to

Laney.

Garrett was a little hesitant.

He didn’t know how to face Laney, having realized his mistake.

But Ian patted Garrett on his shoulder and encouraged him gently, “Just go.”

After some hesitation, Garrett took the breakfast and entered the ward nervously.

Meanwhile, Laney was breastfeeding the baby.

When she saw Garrett, she looked up at him indifferently before cooing to her baby softly.

Garrett was at a loss. He didn’t know what to say and stammered, “Laney… Have something to eat.”

After an awkward moment of silence, Laney suddenly looked up at him and said, “Garrett, let’s

separate for a while. I need time to collect myself.”
