I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 260

Chapter 260

Seeing that the hostility between both of them was increasing to the point where they were about to start a fight, Zoe slipped away again without even thinking.

Placing down the coffee, Aidan looked at Leanna. "Am I such a person in your heart?"

"Does it matter what I say?"

Even this b*stard himself had mentioned before that he's a bad guy. Why does he make it sound as if I'm accusing him? she wondered.

"The resort has to be booked one month ahead. How do you think I could predict that he was going to take you with him?" he asked.

Stunned at his words, she didn't expect that he would give her such an answer.

He cast her a look and explained, "I've told you before that Elijah isn't as simple as you think, and he's telling you this because he's jealous of me."

Out of reflex, she asked, "Why is he jealous of you?"

"He's jealous that I'm the one you like in your heart."

Speechless for a few seconds, Leanna finally uttered with great difficulty, "Do you think that everyone else has the same thoughts as you?"

"Then, give me a reasonable explanation why he would lie to you," Aidan said nonchalantly.

All of a sudden, she slipped into silence and couldn't find the words to argue.

"Just know this, Leanna. I'll never do anything to hurt you and all I want is just that one thing. On the other hand, it's different with Elijah. You have no idea about his background and what he wants," he added.

"That's it. Don't be so mean and make yourself out to be so innocent. You've done no less of stuff like that."


While Aidan was speechless, Leanna sat on the couch with still eyes, thinking, Now that the b*stard has mentioned it, that reminds me. Daniel is Elijah's friend, so they probably came here because of the same purpose, which is to aim for the Crossley Family.

At the thought of this, she stole a few looks at Aidan, but the words would always stop at the tip of her tongue.

"It's not too late if you apologize to me now," he said slowly.

"President Pearson."

Hearing that Leanna's tone had suddenly turned serious, Aidan looked at her from the corner of his eyes and raised his brows, gesturing for her to continue.

She pressed her lips gently together and said, "Does it affect you greatly if Georgina marries your brother?"

"Are you concerned about me?"

"Forget it if you're not telling."

A chuckle escaped his lips before he answered seriously, "Not much, actually, but some things will get a little trickier. Still, you don't have to worry because it's not a problem for me."

Ignoring part of his answer, she said, "I think there won't be any outcome from this coalition marriage in the end."

At the end of the day, Leanna reckoned that Daniel and Elijah came with a purpose, and since their target was the Crossley Family, how could they allow Georgina to be engaged to Justin and expand the Crossley Family's influence?

Smirking, Aidan didn't argue.

She gave it a thought before saying, "President Pearson, you should know as well that Daniel doesn't have a simple background, and he should have the same purpose as you."

"Are you saying that I should cooperate with him?"

"It's just the rational use of allocating effective resources to reach the maximum benefit."

As the saying went, the enemy of my enemy was my friend, and if they had the same target, why shouldn't they work together?

The smirk on Aidan's face widened. "Not bad. You're applying what you learned right away."

Embarrassed by his compliment, she coughed unnaturally. "I've always been one to take the best to make up for the worst." Then, she added, "Take the best and leave the worst."

A few seconds later, Aidan said, "Whether it was Elijah or Daniel, both of them aren't trustworthy. You should stay away from them."

"Okay."

Minutes later, Zoe came in with the snacks that Leanna had ordered earlier. "Nana, this… P-President Pearson, have something to eat first."

Rising to his feet, he said calmly, "I'm busy, so I'm going now."

"Didn't you say that you want to eat some earlier?" Leanna complained.

"Not all of a man's words can be trusted. Take this as a free lesson for you."
