Chapter 81 Waking up in Anger Even After Falling Asleep

With her head hanging low, Leanna pushed the gate open and sat on a chair by the courtyard.

Then, Naomi came out of the house and saw Leanna. “Didn’t you say you needed to be somewhere? Why did you come back so soon?”

Shaking her head, Leanna sighed. “It should be fine.”

She already assumed that Aidan was here to get back at her. After all, Jonathan replied to her instantly, saying that that man was waiting for her to come begging. However, she hadn’t expected that that man would come at her with such a grandiose project. Looking at the current situation, her begging him would amount to nothing in the end. Just the kind of pettiness I’d expect from that scum, she thought. After a few moments passed, she said, “Ms. Fletcher, do you know they’ll be tearing this place down?”

With a nod, Naomi sat beside her and sorted the clutter there. “I’ve heard about it.”

“Then, where do you plan to go?”

“I’m not sure. Since the project is still in the planning phase, there’s still plenty of time for me to think about it. After all, they will still need more time to start work even after they’ve finished the proposal.”

Halfway through listening to Naomi, Leanna started having a headache as her belly growing bigger day by day would make finding a place to move into an inconvenience.

Then, Naomi looked Leanna in her eyes and said, “If you’re troubled with where you would go, how about living with me?”

With Naomi’s offer, Leanna’s eyes lit up with her spirits perked up instantly. “Is that okay?”

“I’m just one person anyways. Adding you into the mix wouldn’t be a bother.”

“Thank you, Ms. Fletcher,” Leanna said with a smile. Although she now had a plan for the move, she had a feeling that her days of comfort and peace would soon come to an end with Aidan’s appearance.
