Chapter 78 I’ll Kill Her!

Zayn took a long look at Aidan as he was about to leave the house. He wasn’t sure if Aidan knew about Leanna’s pregnancy. “Mr. Barnett,” Aidan called. “I hope this doesn’t happen again,” he told Zayn.

Hearing Aidan’s words, Zayn halted his footsteps and contemplated Aidan’s words before responding, “Are you saying this because you’re worried about Anna?”

“She’s my cousin, after all. Don’t you think I should be concerned?” Aidan asked in return.

“Well, that’s surprising. You might not be a good husband, but it seems like you’re a good cousin, huh, President Pearson,” Zayn uttered. His words made Aidan’s gaze darken for a moment. While Aidan fixed his angry gaze on Zayn, Zayn simply nodded before walking away.

Then, Aidan turned back to find Anna standing close to him. Gordon and Sienna were both sitting on the couch, and they didn’t look too pleased. This entire incident was supposed to be Zayn’s fault, but after the fuss they created, and since Anna didn’t have evidence, it now seemed as if the Pearsons were just stirring up some drama.

“I want you to tell me everything from the start, Anna. Is Zayn hiding something, or are you creating something out of nothing?!” Gordon growled.

“I—” Anna was afraid to overdo anything when Aidan was right beside her. Fortunately for her, Justin spoke up at that very moment to save her. “Anna’s young, and she places a lot of value on her relationships. Misunderstandings are bound to happen in relationships, right? It’s great that we’ve clarified things. The Barnetts no longer have an issue with this matter either,” he said.

Then, Justin shifted his gaze to Anna. “You shouldn’t do this in the future, Anna. Both you and Zayn are adults. If you want to be with him for a long time, then you should learn to communicate your issues and talk things out with him. You shouldn’t get both families involved—you’d just be causing more havoc,” he said.

“I got it,” Anna uttered with her head hanging low.

Since Justin had made his statement, Gordon felt like it was no longer appropriate to continue losing his temper. Instead, he let out a cold scoff before he hobbled up the stairs with the support of his walking stick. He was still filled with anger, but he couldn’t find an outlet for it.

After Gordon left, Sienna followed along behind him. As she stood up, she gave Anna a stare and turned to look at Aidan before walking away. She looked as if she were considering something as she headed off. “Send me back to my room, Anna,” Justin ordered. Anna looked as if she had just won a prize after she heard what Justin said, and she hastily agreed to his orders before pushing his wheelchair to the elevator.
