The smile on the edges of Leanna's lips fell a little, and she nodded gently.
Zoe couldn't help but curse in her heart before asking in a low voice, ''Then, did you give the stuff to
her?''
''I did, but Anna threw it out.''
Zoe sighed at that and responded, ''Forget it. Since it's thrown out, so be it. Anyway, you've already
received the design fees, so they can do whatever they like with it.''
Even though that was what she said, she knew that every design was unique and the brainchild of the
designer. So, it would be a lie to say that the designer didn't mind when they witnessed their design
being thrown out.
''Let's go,'' Leanna said.
Right after she had told Leanna that, she saw Aidan marching out of the hotel with an emotionless
face, and a layer of cold air encapsulated him as he strode in large strides toward the Rolls-Royce
parked at the side.
He didn't even glance once in their direction the entire time.
Jonathan followed behind him and couldn't help but cast a hesitant look at Leanna, unsure whether he
should ask her to come along with them. In the end, he nodded at her in acknowledgment and left in a
hurry.
''What's up with that jerk? He's the one who's being greedy by wanting more than one woman. How
can he act so justified? I really misjudged him. Hmph!''
Leanna merely chuckled softly. ''Let's go.''
…
Back at Castor Villa, Leanna was about to go upstairs when the servant, Alice, approached her and
said in a hushed voice, ''Madam, did you have an argument with Master again? I saw that he had a
long face when he returned earlier. It looks like he's furious.''
''It's okay. He's always like this.''
Before Alice left, she advised Leanna a little more, and when Leanna returned to her room, she took
out her luggage from the closet and simply tossed her clothes into it. Then, she strolled out of the room
with it.
Outside the bedroom, she saw Aidan leaning against the doorframe with his hands stuck in his pockets
and looking at her expressionlessly. ''Where are you going?''
''Since you're going to get married, there's no more reason for me to stay here any longer, President
Pearson,'' Leanna answered.
However, he let out a mirthless laugh before he said, ''Just one word from her, and you took it for real,
but when I said so much, you didn't give two hoots about it. Leanna McKinney, this is just your excuse,
isn't it?''
''You can think whatever makes you happy, President Pearson.''
She couldn't be bothered to waste her breath on him, so she sashayed forward with the luggage
behind her.
Nevertheless, she stopped in her tracks when she was at the staircase. I was too impulsive, she
realized.
Aidan didn't move from his spot, not far from her, as he watched her with composure.
Then, with an inexplicable fury swirling in her chest, it was as though she was squabbling with him
without words, and after thinking about it for a few seconds, she went downstairs. ''Alice, will you
please help me to bring down my stuff?''
Just when Alice was about to agree, she caught sight of Aidan at the top of the staircase, wearing a
stoic face. So, she came up with an excuse on the spot as she placed a hand on her back for support.
''Oh my, Madam. My back has been hurting for the past couple of days from an old pain, and I can't lift
anything heavy,'' she said, scurrying away from the scene.
Leanna was rendered speechless by her daring but thought, Forget it. I don't want my stuff anymore.
Thus, she turned and left, but Aidan's voice echoed behind her, saying, ''You should think about the
consequences of leaving.''
The moment the words left his lips, Leanna really stopped in her tracks, and he came downstairs slowly
before taking a seat on the couch.
She looked at him calmly, asking, ''Are you threatening me, President Pearson?''
''If it makes you happy to think like this, then go ahead.''
Leanna was stunned as she quietly wondered, This jerk probably has some issues.
Finally, she pursed her lips before trying to reason with him, ''President Pearson, Miss Crossley
probably doesn't know about our relationship, and neither does she have any idea that we're currently
living together. If she finds out—''
Aidan lifted his eyes to look at her. ''What will happen if she finds out?''
Having been interrupted by her suddenly, she forgot what she wanted to say, but he continued,
''Leanna McKinney, I think you should explain why you appeared there tonight and not question me
who I'm marrying.''
Who's questioning him? she asked herself. He's the one who's being a two-timer.
She took a deep breath and said, ''President Pearson, it wasn't my intention to show up tonight. Miss
Crossley is my client, and I was there to deliver something. But, afterward, something cropped up at
the auction, and that's why I went to clarify the situation to Mr. Barnett.''
''Did he listen to your explanation?''
''Uh… No.''
''Did your clarification help?''
"Also, no.''
Aidan fixed his indifferent gaze at her as he asked, ''Then tell me, what were you doing there?''
After a few seconds of silence, Leanna answered, ''President Pearson, there was an issue with my
design, and I have to be responsible as the designer. So, I can't skip the explanation just because it
doesn't help.''
''I didn't see you being responsible for anything. All I saw was Zayn Barnett going against his father
because of you,'' he said, sounding so nonchalant that it was as though he was enjoying the show.
Leanna was out of words because she knew that Zayn must be under tremendous pressure to clarify
for her against everyone's opinions.
Then, Aidan added, ''Leanna McKinney, do you think that now that the Barnetts had found out about
your existence and already had an arranged marriage with the Pearsons, they'll still act like nothing
had happened after they witnessed how Zayn Barnett defended you against all odds? Will they just let
you be?''
For a moment, she couldn't really understand him. ''What do you mean?''
''I mean, your enemy now is not only the Pearsons but also the Barnetts. Once you leave this door,
whatever happens to you is unrelated to me.''
A moment of silence passed by before she chuckled. ''That's right. After all, you've never been
interested in caring about these things.''
Aidan smacked his lips at her accusations, then fixed his eyes on Leanna. He had never bothered to
explain himself to others, and people could misunderstand the situation as they liked. Yet, he wanted to
open up this heartless woman's chest to look at her heart to see if it was truly made out of stone.
''If I don't care about you, do you think you can speak so freely with me?'' he asked.
She laughed indifferently at his comment as she didn't want to continue the conversation and merely
said, ''No matter what, since you're engaged with Miss Crossley, you should take some time to clarify
things with her. In a marriage, honesty and responsibility are the most important.''
He glanced at her when she spoke those words and asked, ''Do you mean to imply that I wasn't
honest, nor did I uphold my duty as a husband?''
Well, you're the one who admitted it, she answered silently.
''I just think that since you're going to marry Miss Crossley, then you shouldn't hide anything from her.
Otherwise—''
''Leanna McKinney, are you jealous?''
''Huh?'' Leanna blurted.
After that, Aidan rose from his seat and started to stalk closer to her, step by step. ''The whole night,
you keep bringing up Georgina and marriage. Isn't it because you're jealous?''
She couldn't help but move a step back as her cheeks flushed crimson. ''I'm not! I just think that what
you're doing is very shameless!''
While she was stepping back, she bumped into something and was about to fall. Out of panic, she
flailed her arms around and grabbed the shirt in front of her.
