Prev Chapter Next Chapter

In the afternoon, several delivery trucks stopped by, and the items that Aidan bought arrived one after

the other.

As the parcels were enormous, many neighbors gathered around to watch.

Leanna did not want to be in the spotlight, so she pretended to be asleep, and no matter what was

going on downstairs, she refused to go down.

Naomi was also stunned when she saw the boxes of things that the employees brought in.

On the contrary, Wendy poked Naomi's arm and said with a beaming expression, "Did you see? Did

you see?"

"See what?"

"There is obviously hope for a remarriage." Wendy continued hushedly, "According to my observations

in the past few days, Leanna and Aidan clearly like each other. Look, in a few more days, they'll

remarry. By then, you can expect to be a grandmother and have a grandson."

Naomi lowered her eyes and smiled slightly when she heard the last sentence.

Leanna did not know when the sound in the yard stopped and had fallen asleep. When she woke up,

the phone on her bed was ringing.

When she saw a string of unknown numbers, she answered it and spoke once it connected, "Hello,

who is this?"

"Hello, Miss McKinney. This is Highside Prison. Is Jethro McKinney your father?"

She was silent for a while before answering, "Yes."

"Miss McKinney, several inmates attempted to escape from prison last night and caused a fire

outbreak. Unfortunately, some didn't manage to escape and died, and one of them was Jethro

McKinney. According to the regulations, the ashes are to be handed over to their family members, and

if they do not want it, we will handle them ourselves."

Leanna was slightly startled when she heard the news. After a long while, she muttered, "Died?"

"Yes. If Miss McKinney wants to claim his ashes, please drop by Highside Prison within the next three

days."

"Got it, thank you."

After she hung up the phone, she sat on the bed in a daze.

She was just thinking a few days ago that if she could, she would never want to hear about Jethro ever

again in her life. However, she never imagined that the next time she heard of him, it was to collect his

ashes.

When she went downstairs, Aidan was sitting in the yard, doing his work, while Jonathan was standing

next to him. After seeing Leanna coming over, he nodded slightly at her before making a conscious

move to leave.

Then, she sat across Aidan and pondered for a long while before saying, "President Pearson."

With his eyes glued to his laptop, he spoke without raising his head, "Speak."

"Did you arrange Jethro's imprisonment?"

"What does that have to do with me—" When he raised his head and saw her pale face, he said,

"Jonathan handled it."

Leanna hummed thoughtfully and said, "Thank you, President Pearson."

She knew that if Jethro, this ticking time bomb, were not adequately dealt with, he would continue to

look for Louis even after she left.

It was an endless and vicious cycle.

Aidan shut his laptop and raised his gaze to look at her. "What do you want to say?"

However, Leanna quickly shook her head. "It's nothing. I just came here to thank you, President

Pearson."

Speaking of which, it seemed that he had really helped her a lot, even if she didn't know about it.

"You may continue with your work, President Pearson. I'm going out for a walk."

After she left, Jonathan hurried in. "President Pearson, I just received news that a fire broke out in

Highside Prison last night, and Madam's father…died on the spot. It seems that Madam has been

contacted to claim the ashes from the prison."

Aidan pursed his lips and got up before saying lightly, "I got it."

When Aidan found Leanna, she was leaning on the stone fence by the small river with the wind in her

hair.

He walked over slowly and stood beside her.

When she heard the sound, she tilted her head back toward the noise. "President Pearson?"

"What are you doing here?" He asked.

"Just…taking a walk."

He hummed and said nothing after.

After a while, she took the initiative to ask, "President Pearson, when are you going back to Highside?"

"Tomorrow."

Initially, she asked this as a casual question. Nevertheless, she did not expect him to leave so soon, so

she was stunned. Finally, after a moment, she said, "Oh."

Throughout this period, she dreamed every day for him to leave early. But, she did not expect herself to

be not as happy as she thought after hearing that he was going.

After she thought about it, she continued her inquiry, "Is Ms. Shaffer leaving with you?"

"No."

That was right. Seeing how Naomi was, she probably wouldn't go back.

"Then…will you visit Ms. Shaffer in the future?"

At this point, Aidan turned his head to look at her. "How do you want me to answer this?"

Unable to refute, she pursed her lips and kept quiet.

She, too, did not know what answer she was expecting. Also, whether he would be coming back in the

future had nothing to do with her. All the questions she asked were just to feed her nosy self.

Soon, Aidan's voice rang, "If you don't want to go collect his ashes, you don't have to."

Leanna remained quiet; she wasn't surprised he would know about this.

After all, it was he who sent Jethro to prison.

In fact, she wasn't worried about whether she should go and collect his ashes. However, if she went,

she would definitely return to Highside. By then, it might not be that easy to leave.

She had too many bad memories of that place. She always felt that nothing good would await her if she

returned.

Aidan spoke again without waiting for her answer, "He's dead. It's useless for you to think about it now.

If you have time, why not think about what I've said to you?"

Leanna did not react for a moment. "What do you mean?"

He did not say anything as he gave her a deep, icy look.

She was confused for a moment before recalling what he had said.

He wasn't talking about the remarriage, was he?

She thought he wasn't serious about it, so she didn't take the matter to heart.

Therefore, she let out a dry laugh. "President Pearson, shouldn't you be the one to think about it?

Aren't you afraid that I have any ill intentions?"

"You think too highly of yourself."

"Then, may I ask the reason behind the remarriage?"

After a few seconds, he quietly turned to look at her. "Leanna, if you were me, would you let a pregnant

woman with your child not be under your control?"

Leanna was stunned to hear this and chewed on her lips for a long time. Sure enough, this was the

reason behind his proposal.

From the very beginning, be it the decisions he made these days or his proposal to remarry, his end

goal was the child in her belly.

Fortunately…

Fortunately, she wasn't caught up in it.

Leanna answered, "President Pearson, I will do my best to let you know my whereabouts, and I will

also let you know anything about the child. I won't let your father—the Pearsons know about my

pregnancy. As for the remarriage, forget about it."

It had been a difficult journey to leave the marriage that had bound her for three years, a marriage

without love and only existed by name. She would be crazy if she even considered a remarriage.

After a long time, Aidan spoke coldly, "The flight is at 8:00PM tomorrow. Pack your things."

He didn't bother waiting for her answer as he turned around and strode away.

After he left, Leanna withdrew her gaze and sighed silently as she watched the last trace of the sunset.

It seemed that she would still have to make that trip back.
