Chapter 140 Multitasking
Just as Sienna was about to continue, Gordon interrupted unhappily, “Alright now, is this farce over? Can’t we even eat in peace?”
Those at the table finally quietened down.
After dinner, Sienna and Gordon left while Leanna stood up as she wanted to return to her room when Georgina blocked her path.
Standing in front of her, Georgina smiled subtly. “Miss McKinney, how are you considering my proposal from this afternoon?”
Leanna replied, “Thank you for your gesture, Miss Crossley, but I think I won’t be going.”
“Are you worried that Mr Pearson won’t let you go? Or are you worried about Anna? I—”
“Miss Crossley,” Leanna cut her off. “A wedding is a very important event with a lot of things that need preparation. If I go, I might just be wasting your time.”
Georgina paused before showing an apologetic expression. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to say those words during the meal. It’s just because—”
“You don’t need to apologize to me, Miss Crossley. I don’t think you did anything wrong to me.” While saying this, Leanna suddenly felt tired and at a loss for words, so she softly stated, “I only want to rest now. Again, it should be me who should be apologizing to you for ruining your mood, Miss Crossley.”
Then, she nodded apologetically toward Georgina and went upstairs.
Leanna stood at the window for a while after returning to her room, only to sit down with a sigh of relief after seeing the black sedan slowly drive away.
Then, someone knocked on her door after some time.
She composed herself before walking toward the door.

Opening the door, she saw Aidan standing in front of it with his hands in his pockets and a cold gaze.
Leanna was a bit shocked at this.
Yet, she still shut the door without a shred of hesitation.
The moment she did that, Aidan reached out and blocked the door, looking at her with a dissatisfied gaze.
She could only ask him politely, “Is there anything, President Pearson?”
Retracting his hand back into his pocket, he replied, “I saw that you weren’t eating much, so I had the chefs whip up some more food. They’ll send it up later.”
“Oh, thank you, President Pearson,” said Leanna and closed the door again.
Aidan looked coldly at her without speaking. Then, he asked, “Is this how you’re going to act?”
Pursing her lips, she replied, “Thank you for your goodwill, President Pearson. I will be sure to savor the meal.”
Since she was not full from lunch, she accepted his gesture.
Aidan, who kept his gaze on her, questioned after a few seconds, “Why are you in such a terrible mood?”
Leanna felt confused by his question. How am I angry in his eyes?
Taking a deep breath, she replied, “I think you’re mistaken, President Pearson. Since you’re going to be married soon, you shouldn’t just appear in front of your ex-wife’s room and talk to her like this. If your fiancée gets wind of this, I think she’ll be very upset.”
He was still emotionless when he asked, “Is it that you’ll be upset? Or she’ll be upset?”
Leanna only thought that she could not communicate any further with this man. Why is this b*stard being so persistent? The wedding’s date has already been decided and the fiancée has even visited him, yet he still intends to cheat on her.
Yet, it was just that this time around, it was her becoming the mistress.
The more she thought about it, the more irritated she became. Then, she exclaimed furiously, “President Pearson, what precisely do you want to say? If there’s nothing, I’m going back to rest.”
Aidan only looked at her in silence.
As Leanna was about to close the door, he finally asked, “What are you planning to do if I really marry Georgina?”
After a pause, she replied, “Anything goes except for me giving you something as congratulations.”
She then emphasized, “I’m poor.”
Hearing such an unexpected answer made Aidan laugh dryly before he turned around and left for his room, slamming his door hard.
Leanna, who was still standing on the same spot, could feel the shockwave traveling to her. I haven’t even closed my door yet, but the b*stard had already closed his.
