Juliet's POV

"Millard!" I said quickly.

"Again, why is there baby?" He said, his head bopping up and down while he talked.

"Um..." Horace trailed off, then ran out the door.

"Jee, thanks," I muttered.

Then I turned to Millard.

"Please don't tell anyone," I said.

"I won't, but I want to know everything." He said sitting on Emma's bed.

I told him how I found the baby in Enoch's room, and how Horace and I thought it could be Enoch.

"Can I see him?" He asked. I nodded and picked up the baby who was sleeping on my bed and handed him carefully to Millard.

"He does look like Enoch, and I haven't seen Enoch at all today." He said, handing me back baby 'Enoch'.
