I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 366

"It's just a minor injury. I'll live. I'm used to it anyway," Ron replied.

Leanna knew how Ron sustained those injuries even though she didn't ask him. I bet he must have been wounded when he was trying to gather the money for Queenie's father. "I'll head to the bank and pay you the remaining one hundred grand."

"But I haven't found Jethro…" Ron was stunned.

"Didn't you just say you were sure you could find him?" Leanna smiled.

Ron pursed his lips without saying a single word. A few moments later, he was approached by the security guards when they noticed a pool of blood around him. Just as they were about to ask Ron what happened, he quickly darted into the rain and disappeared.

The guards then gazed at Leanna and asked, "Who is that man, lady? What was he talking to you about?"

"He was just asking for directions, but after I told him I couldn't help him, he just left," Leanna answered.

However, the guards didn't seem to believe Leanna, but as they were about to press on with their question, a black Rolls-Royce stopped just right in front of them. Then, when they saw the man exiting the vehicle, they could instantly feel the cold and intimidating aura that he was radiating, even more so than Ron whom they just saw. As the man walked closer, they couldn't help but feel chills running down their spine.

After walking up to Leanna, Aidan noticed the pool of blood on the ground, his eyes filled with indifference. "Are you hurt? Where are you hurt?" He could feel his throat slightly constricting.

Leanna paused for a second, understanding what he meant, before she reacted with a smile. "No, it's not me. I'm fine."

"What happened? And you…" Aidan stopped mid-sentence when he noticed the security guards were listening in on them. Nevertheless, they immediately left and told the janitor to clean the place when they met his eyes.

Leanna gently pulled Aidan's sleeve and spoke with a soft voice. "I'll tell you more later, but I'm unharmed."

It was only after noticing Leanna's dry clothes without any signs of injuries on her that Aidan was able to put his mind to ease. He then wrapped his arms around the lady and asked in a deep voice, "Were you trying to give me a heart attack? Why didn't you answer my call?"

While it was Leanna's first time seeing Aidan so nervous, she responded by wrapping her arms around his waist and explaining calmly. "My phone was on silent mode, so I didn't hear your call."

Aidan reacted by tightening his arms around Leanna. Deep down, he couldn't stop thinking about the moment that he nearly went crazy when he saw no signs of Leanna in her office and the pool of blood outside her workplace. Thank god she called back, or I would have confronted Lloyd and made him pay with his life.

Although it wasn't crowded in the hospital, the duo's interaction still drew the attention of the nurses who passed by them. Soon, Leanna began to feel embarrassed as she nudged the man. "Alright, I'm fine now, okay? Let's get into the car and talk."

A few moments later, Aidan let go of Leanna and said, "I'll give you a lift home."

"But…"

"Jonathan is here. Give him your car keys." Aidan asserted his dominance just as Leanna was reminded of what had happened earlier. Thus, she decided to go along with the man. As soon as they got into the black Rolls-Royce and left the hospital, Aidan asked, "Can you tell me now?"

"Well, it wasn't that much of a big deal either. It was… Ron. He swung by earlier."

"He still had the cheek to see you?" Aidan asked sternly with a pair of furrowed eyebrows.

"It's not like what you think it is. He knows where Jethro is," Leanna answered.

"Where is he?"

Leanna then went on to tell Aidan about Jethro's location and added, "You know what? Ron was right. It's easier for him to find Jethro than it is for us, so I think it's better for us to let him handle the matter, or Jethro is going to get away again this time."

When he heard what the lady said, Aidan pursed his lips without talking back, knowing well that Ron was the best person he could trust to find Jethro because his men struggled to find any useful lead despite their effort. Well, I suppose I have to admit that Ron does know Jethro better, so maybe it's better to let him take care of it. While Aidan remained silent, Leanna felt relieved, knowing that the man's reaction was a gesture of concession. However, she was quickly caught off guard by Aidan, who suddenly spoke in a stern manner. "You mustn't see him when you're alone."

"Alright, I heard you." Leanna nodded, agreeing with Aidan that she should stay away from Ron due to their differences in values, even though he didn't seem hostile to her recently. Well, I guess I have just cleared my debts that I owed him after helping him this time.

Soon, they arrived at the Crossley Residence. While Leanna thought Aidan would leave after Jonathan arrived with her car like he did previously, Aidan drove through the Crossley Residence's gate, rendering the lady confused.

"Seriously? It's pouring out here, and you want me to wait outside?" Aidan asked.

"But…"

"Don't worry. I don't think he is really going to drive me out of his house."
