Chapter 83 Don’t Push Your Luck

Hearing that, Harry let out a sigh of relief and said with a dry smile, “So that was the case. I thought for a second there you knew President Pearson well.”

Leanna was about to answer when a cold male voice sounded from behind. “I also think that Miss McKinney knows me quite well.”

She fell silent.

Harry hurriedly said, “President Pearson, Leanna didn’t mean it that way…”

“Leanna?” Aidan scoffed coldly. “From the way you’re calling each other by your first names, it seems that you two are very close.”

His words made Harry extremely flustered. “I… Leanna and I…”

Leanna looked at Aidan calmly and said, “President Pearson, if you have anything to say about me, you can just say it. Don’t always take it out on others.”

He slowly looked toward her, his gaze turning frosty.

At the sight of their tense conversation, although Harry wanted to speak up several times, the words faded into nothing whenever he tried to open his mouth.

After a few seconds, Aidan said coldly, “Miss McKinney, you must think of yourself as someone very important.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll be taking my leave first,” Leanna replied with a slight nod at him. Then, she turned and left.

“Leanna…” Harry hurriedly called out before he turned back and said to Aidan, “I’m really sorry, President Pearson. I’ll come back after I escort Leanna to the car.”

She had already walked to the entrance and was waiting for the car. When she saw Harry following after her, she said, “I can go back alone. You don’t have to send me back.”

Harry replied, “It’s fine; I’ll wait until you get into the car.”
