I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 80 He’s Not Going to Let Her Go

The dim glow from the moon illuminated the man’s sharp nose, thin lips, and defined jaw. He tilted his head up a little to look at the sky, but he didn’t seem to realize her presence. Leanna’s first instinct was to turn and run away, but she saw Jonathan standing some distance away from her. He gave her a curt nod.

Leanna was speechles; she had no choice but to walk toward Aidan before stopping in front of him. “What are you doing here, President Pearson?” she asked.

He didn’t move from his seating position and simply spoke in a voice that sounded even more sinister than usual. “Did you tell Jonathan to send you my schedule?”

She didn’t know what to say in response. He can just say that he doesn’t want to share it if he doesn’t feel comfortable with the idea. Why is he being so petty? Leanna didn’t know what he wanted from her, so she stood around for a while before questioning him again. “When did you get here, President Pearson? Have you eaten? If you haven’t, we could—”

“When he said his parents were teachers back in his hometown,” Aidan stated out of nowhere. Leanna frowned as she processed his words for a moment. “Were you eavesdropping on our conversation?”

Aidan gradually turned around before staring at her blankly. “I just happened to overhear you guys talking. If you were so afraid of being heard, you guys should have whispered to each other behind locked doors,” he commented. Leanna had to take a deep breath to calm herself down. She didn’t want to get all petty with him.

“I’m surprised to see that you actually seem attractive to other men. There was that engagement with Zayn a while ago, and there’s now a man who’s willing to take responsibility for the baby. Men are just streaming into your life!” Aidan continued.

“Well, it’s still nothing in comparison to all the women you have in your arms, President Pearson,” she retorted. He was speechless for a moment, but he then scanned the outfit that she was wearing before pressing his brows together. “What are you wearing?”

She flicked her hair back and looked away while speaking. “It’s fashion—you wouldn’t understand it.” He scoffed and stood up to fix his shirt before walking past her and leaving the site. She stood in her spot for a few more seconds before she turned around. By then, Aidan was already bending down to get into the black Maybach that was parked nearby. She was still rather dazed even after the car drove off. Did he leave just like that? Didn’t he come here to interrogate me? Or did he just come here to criticize me because he was in a bad mood? I don’t understand, she thought.

When Leanna got home, Naomi was watering the plants on the front porch.

“Did you clarify things with that person?” Naomi asked without looking at the woman who had just walked into the house.
