I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 282

Aidan was silent for two seconds before looking at Leanna with his deep and dark eyes. "How should I address you in front of others, then?"

Parting her lips, Leanna subconsciously wanted to reply. However, she abruptly realized that it seemed to be a trap Aidan set up for her just when the words were on the tip of her tongue.

Therefore, she quickly kept her mouth shut. After that, she took a sip of the water in front of her and looked away as if nothing had happened.

Soon, Aidan's low voice sounded as he hummed.

At this moment, Leanna's mobile phone rang. In a swift, she grabbed her phone and answered, "Hello? Oh, Zoe… What?! The bathroom is leaking? That serious? Okay! I'll immediately head home now!"

Leanna spoke so fast to the point that the salesperson for children's French learning books, who was on the other end of the phone, did not have the chance to chime in at all.

After she had finished speaking, Leanna hurriedly grabbed her things. While picking them up, she said, "President Pearson, something happened at home, so I must head back now. You don't have to drive me off. I'll just take a cab."

Hearing that, Aidan leaned against the chair. Resting his arms on the armrest of the seat next to him, he looked at Leanna with a half smile as he asked, "Do you know how to handle a water leakage?

Words that had spoken were past recalling. Since Leanna confidently said she needed to rush home due to water leakage, what she could only do now was lie through her teeth. "First… like this… Then, like that… After that, problem solved!" she stammered.

Seeing this, Aidan asked slowly and deliberately, "Which step comes first?"

Leanna was speechless after she heard that.

In her heart, she involuntarily scolded Aidan, This b*stard is so obnoxious!

Later, she replied, "I don't know much about solving the water leakage problem. I'll just go home and have a look. Once I find that it requires me to report the problem to the management, I'll just have them send a plumber over to fix it. If all plans fail, I'll just ask Louis over to fix it."

When Aidan heard Leanna's words, he immediately got up, put on his jacket and said, "It's too much hassle to file a repair report. It's better I go with you."

At once, Leanna widened her eyes in surprise. "N-No… You don't need to…"

"I should. Stop acting like a stranger with me. After all, that's what boyfriends are supposed to do." Aidan took a deep pause before he hooked his lips into a smile and added, "I'm not saying anything wrong this time, am I?"

Leanna's face abruptly crimsoned in shyness and she was silent for a while. Damn! This b*stard is shameless when it comes to giving himself titles.

Without waiting for Leanna to reply, Aidan took her hand. "Let's go."

As she walked, she retorted in a low voice, "W-Who's my boyfriend? I never agreed to be your girlfriend."

Aidan answered, "You did."

Pausing for a moment, Leanna then asked, "Are you going to tell me that you heard the voice in my head again?"

However, Aidan simply raised his eyebrows, neither saying yes or no to her question.

Leanna, on the other hand, regretted it as soon as she asked that question. What am I doing? Did I not just give an unsought confession? Forget it. There's no use trying to argue with him over this matter now.

When the car was parked downstairs in the residential community area, Leanna saw Aidan unfasten his seat belt just when she was about to open the car and leave.

After meeting her gaze, he calmly said, "Isn't there a water leakage problem at your home? I'll go check it out for you."

As soon as Leanna heard that, she scoffed inwardly, This b*stard knew it was my excuse to escape him, yet now he's using this as his excuse.

After a few seconds, she replied, "President Pearson, let me set something straight with you."

Aidan looked sideways at her without answering. He did not need to think much to know that the words Leanna was about to say were anything he did not want to hear.

Ignoring him, Leanna continued, "Look—it's not just me who lives in that house. President Pearson, you can't just go upstairs into the house whenever you want. You'll disturb Zoe."

Tapping on the steering wheel with his slender fingers, Aidan then said, "In that case, move out and I'll find you a rental unit."

"No, thank you."

As she refused, Aidan suggested again, "Or you can move back to Castor Villa."

Leanna rejected without thinking, "Nope."

"Why? Aren't you the one who thinks it's inconvenient to live with someone else?"

Taking a deep breath, she replied, "I just think it's inconvenient for the tenants if you visit. I'll be very comfortable as long as you don't visit."

At once, Aidan frowned and said unhappily, "But I'll be feeling upset."

"Oh, that's your problem. So, get over it," retorted Leanna.

Aidan became speechless.

Then, seizing the chance that he was not paying attention, she opened the car door and left quickly.
