Leanna woke up to the sun glaring down at her. She turned around and rummaged around for her phone. The moment she looked at the time, she shot up. Eleven? Why didn't my alarm go off?

She hurried out of bed and left the room only to run into Aidan approaching her with a bag in hand. "Ah, you're awake."

Leanna grumbled, "And you woke up earlier than I did. Why didn't you wake me up?"

"You were sound asleep, so I let you sleep in."

"But I'm running late!"

Aidan asked, "I thought it was your day off?"

Oh. Leanna calmed down. Yeah, it is. It's Sunday. She had been working too much lately, going to her shop almost every day. She had almost forgotten she had a day off. Leanna yawned and returned to her room. "I'll catch some z's then."

Aidan wrapped his arms around her. "Nope. It's not every day you get a day off. Wanna go on a date?"

Leanna turned around. "Where? The movies again?"

Um…

A smile tugged at Leanna's lips. Her mood was buoyant, and her sleepiness was gone. She took the bag of clothes from Aidan and entered her room, but just when she was about to change, Aidan came in. Leanna quickly covered her chest with her clothes, complaining, "You should have knocked."

"If you think it's unfair, I can let you see me naked." He started unbuttoning his shirt.

Dammit. "Alright, stop!" She turned her back toward him and tried her best to get changed, but her bra clasp just wouldn't work with her. I can't get it to align.

Just then, Aidan whispered, "Need any help?"

She gave up. Blushing, she said, "Make it quick!"

Aidan cocked his eyebrow and easily clasped her bra up.

Before he could do anything, Leanna scurried off and changed into her clothes. When she was done changing, she asked, "So where are we going?"

"To the art exhibit."

"What time does it start?"

Aidan looked at the time. "We can have lunch and still have time to get there."

While Leanna was in the bathroom, someone called Aidan. He picked his phone up from the couch and exited the room. "Speak."

"Sir, the chairman is confronting Queenie, but she denied ever doing anything and pushed all the blame on Ron, Georgina, and Violet."

Aidan chortled. He wasn't surprised this happened.

The man said, "The chairman was about to get rid of Queenie, but…"

"But what?"

"Master Justin stopped him."

Aidan grunted. "I see."

"Should we keep an eye on Queenie still, sir?"

"No," answered Aidan. "She sold out Georgina and Violet. They'll handle her."

Now that Queenie dragged those two into this mess, Gordon's going to kill them. He's going to go after Georgina and Violet. As for Queenie, Elliot will handle her.

Leanna emerged from the bathroom the moment he tucked his phone away. "Did something happen?" I thought I heard familiar names.

"It's nothing," Aidan said. "Done?"

"Done."



Since it was the weekend, there were a lot of people at the art exhibit. A place that was supposed to be peaceful and quiet was filled with the noise of people. Not long after they entered the exhibit, Leanna pointed at one painting in surprise. "Oh, I saw that the last time I was here. It's been years. I didn't think I'd see it again."

Aidan looked at her. "You've been here before?"

Leanna blinked and looked away nervously. "Y-Yeah."

"When?"
