Chapter 97 Fine, Just Think of It as My Fault
When Wendy went back home, Naomi asked quietly, “Did you two have another fight again?”
Was it that obvious? She then smiled awkwardly, as she couldn’t bear to say the reason for the fight, and said with an unchanging expression, “No, he’s probably in a bad mood.”
Naomi sighed and said with understanding, “This child has always been this way ever since he was little. He just loves to put on a mean face.”
Leanna muttered, “Indeed.”
“Alright, let’s just ignore him. Come, let’s eat,” said Naomi.
Not long after, Aidan came back out in new clothes with his usual high and mighty look, as though the whole world owed him a living.
It was still fine before Leanna found out Aidan was Naomi’s son. However, now that Leanna knew about their relationship, she started feeling awkward when eating with them. Naturally, she started to think of herself as an outsider during these times and became less likely to be involved with whatever was going on with those two.
However, Leanna did notice how Naomi and Aidan got along peacefully now without being overly considerate for one another. They were no longer treating each other coldly, and that sense of unfamiliarity between them was long gone. Perhaps it’s better this way, she thought.
As far as Leanna could remember, the very image of a mother was vague to her, as she had not only forgotten her face, but she couldn’t even remember the details of the time she spent together with her. If one day her father told her she was born by popping out from a rock and that he was just passing by when he picked her up, she wouldn’t have a hard time believing him.

Leanna fell into a trance while thinking about Jethro. After that night, she tried very hard not to think about that person, as she had already treated him as though he was dead. Right now, she assumed that man might have already taken the money to go live a free and unfettered life. To Leanna, she very much wished to never hear from him ever again.
After everyone was done with their meal, Naomi went inside to wash the dishes while Leanna wanted to go upstairs to take a rest.
Just as Leanna was about to leave, Aidan held her wrist. “Where are you going?” he asked.

“Sleep. Where else do you think I’m going? To have a drink?”
Aidan frowned, clearly displeased. “Are you a pig? You’ve already been sleeping the whole day.”
Leanna looked at the man quietly before she said, “Does President Pearson have orders for me?”
Standing up, Aidan said indifferently, “Let’s go for a walk.”
“President Pearson, I’ve already accompanied you on your walk through this street countless times now. You should know the streets enough by now, so I won’t be—”
“I said let’s go for a walk.”

all these smirks from her neighbors, wanted to hide out of shame. Considering how that man had mentioned his past marriage and that she was pregnant with a child, she dreaded just what sort of gossip would arise from this situation. However, Aidan, who had always taken such things seriously, acted as though nothing was wrong, as he continued to walk behind Leanna at a certain distance with a calm expression. Leanna quickened her pace, and after perfunctorily going through the street, she said, “President Pearson, please continue your

As Leanna was about to go back home, her patience reached its boiling point as she asked, “President Pearson, may I ask you a question?”
“Speak.”
“How much longer do you need to stay here for your job?”
Aidan cast a sideway glance with hints of chills at her. “If you have something to say, then say it.”
Leanna stopped in her tracks and said sincerely, “No matter how others see it, we are still just a man and a woman. Just living under the same roof would no doubt have others gossip about us. Not to mention, we were married once. With that in mind, shouldn’t we maintain a certain distance… Naturally, I’m not trying to chase you away. Feel free to keep staying at that house. I’m fine with staying in a hotel for a day or two.”

replied, “I didn’t see you having these thoughts when you were seducing me.” Embarrassed, Leanna blushed slightly. “President Pearson, couldn’t you… phrase it differently? Besides, weren’t we both willing at that point? You’re saying it as though I’ve forced you into it.” “You’d like to think so,” Aidan said before walking away. Leanna followed suit. “This is just a small suggestion on my part. I trust
