Chapter 178 It's Not Like You Never Cared for Madam A frown appeared on Elijah's face when he heard Leanna's words."Should we go to the hospital?" he asked. "No, no.

just an old sickness. I will

was unable to come up with a response, a cold male voice came from behind them. "No." Hearing this, Elijah turned around, only to call out in surprise, "President Pearson?" Aidan walked to Leanna and stood beside her, his eyes shifting to Elijah as he spoke. "She has plans for tomorrow." "What plans do I have?" Leanna was the one who questioned. Seemingly dissatisfied with her not going along with him, Aidan immediately pursed his lips and peered at her from the corner of his eye. "Just know that you do because I said so," he muttered. She let out a forced laugh at that. She then smiled at Elijah and said, "Sure. Let's do it." Elijah seemed surprised at first, but he soon nodded. "I will come pick you up tomorrow, then." With a smile, she bid him farewell. "I am off. I'll see you tomorrow." Leanna then turned around and started to march away after saying that. Aidan was about to go after her when someone grabbed him by the arm. Upon being stopped, he sneered, "Let go." "Can I ask what are you doing now, President Pearson?" Elijah asked. "It has got nothing to do with you." "Why do you think so? I believe that you can tell I am pursuing Leanna. I can compete fairly with you if you are also pursuing her, but please stop acting so overbearingly. I hope you show her some respect, President Pearson." When Aidan heard that, he looked back at Elijah and chuckled coldly. "Who told you that I am pursuing her?" "If you are not, can you give a good explanation for your behavior?" Elijah asked in return. "Sure." Aidan then said slowly, "Let me remind you too that Leanna is my wife, President Parker. Please stay away from her." A small voice interrupted them right at this moment. "Ex-wife, you mean." When Aidan wordlessly looked over, Zoe immediately turned away and looked at everything but him as she pretended that nothing happened. There was no way anyone could break up the couple she had paired together! "So that is how it is." Elijah let out a chuckle, which prompted Aidan to look at him again. "Will you still continue sticking around now that you know what our relationship is, President Parker?" Elijah only commented, "I've heard that you have a wife whom you don't treat like one. Could it be that you are regretting it after the divorce? In my opinion, the person who is relentlessly sticking around is you, President Pearson." Aidan's expression gradually started to darken as he looked at Elijah coldly. Elijah then continued, "I am truly grateful that you are telling me this. I finally know what Leanna has had to go through in the past. In the future, I will treat her way better than you did to make up for the grief she suffered in the past." After he finished speaking, Elijah nodded slightly to Aidan, and turned to leave. Seeing this, Zoe hurried after the man. She was worried she would be exterminated by Aidan if she continued to stay there. Jonathan soon came in after the two of them left. "President Pearson," he reported. "Mrs. Pearson is heading that way." Aidan, however, asked in a casual tone, "Do you also think that Leanna did nothing but suffer in the three years she was married to me?" "Um..." Jonathan had a feeling that this was a question that didn't have a right answer. But he knew that he might have to pay with his life if he somehow answered wrongly. After he weighed it over the next few seconds, he gingerly answered, "President Pearson, I do think you have some misunderstanding about Mrs. Pearson, but... it is not like you never cared for her." "What are some examples of me showing her I care?" Jonathan kept quiet when nothing came to mind. Aidan was never someone who uttered pleasant words. He might have improved a lot now, but Jonathan had witnessed firsthand how many hurtful things had come out of Aidan's mouth in the
