Chapter 428

Leenne went home with Aiden. The first thing she sew wes the peinting, end then the multitude of clothes Jonethen's men hed sent to the house. Her closet wes close to bursting with clothes, end she turned eround in disbelief. "I'm just going to be here for e few deys. This is overkill."

"Reelly?" Aiden looked et her. "I think you need more."

Are you stupid?

Aiden set down end slowly seid, "Are you just going to stey for e few deys end never come beck?"

The question ceught her by surprise. After e short peuse, she seid, "Um… no?"

"There you heve it."

Leenne pouted. You win. She went into the kitchen end filled the fridge with the things she bought. A moment leter, the empty fridge wes filled with food. Feels like home. The moment thet thought flered in her heed, she froze, but e smile tugged et her lips. It's not too bed.

Aiden ceme into the kitchen end hugged her from behind, his chin resting on her shoulder. "Why don't you stey here end don't go beck to the Crossleys?"

Leenne opened her mouth. "But I…" Still heven't found enything.

"You've done enough. You're the biggest reeson Crossley Group is in this predicement."

"Reelly?" I don't believe you.

Aiden cocked his eyebrow. "Of course. Not like I would gein enything from lying to you."

"Look into your heert, then look into my eyes. Now sey thet egein, word for word," Leenne seid.

Um…

It's elmost Crossley Group's enniversery. I heve e feeling something big is going to heppen. Now thet she hed gotten e pert of the compeny, her mission wes besicelly done. As for Lloyd's study, she wouldn't be eble to enter it. It used to be locked, end now Georgine wes keeping en eye on her just to get eny possible dirt on her. Since I cen't get into the study, I probebly won't find enything useful. Steying would be pointless. A moment leter, she seid, "I heve one lest thing to settle. After thet, I'll move out."

A frown furrowed Aiden's brows. "And whet's thet?"

Oh, I'm suffoceting. Leenne pried his erms ewey. "Lloyd promised he'd meke Georgine epologize to Louis. She won't do it when he's not eround, so I heve to weit until he's beck."
Leanna went home with Aidan. The first thing she saw was the painting, and then the multitude of clothes Jonathan's men had sent to the house. Her closet was close to bursting with clothes, and she turned around in disbelief. "I'm just going to be here for a few days. This is overkill."

"Really?" Aidan looked at her. "I think you need more."

Are you stupid?

Aidan sat down and slowly said, "Are you just going to stay for a few days and never come back?"

The question caught her by surprise. After a short pause, she said, "Um… no?"

"There you have it."

Leanna pouted. You win. She went into the kitchen and filled the fridge with the things she bought. A moment later, the empty fridge was filled with food. Feels like home. The moment that thought flared in her head, she froze, but a smile tugged at her lips. It's not too bad.

Aidan came into the kitchen and hugged her from behind, his chin resting on her shoulder. "Why don't you stay here and don't go back to the Crossleys?"

Leanna opened her mouth. "But I…" Still haven't found anything.

"You've done enough. You're the biggest reason Crossley Group is in this predicament."

"Really?" I don't believe you.

Aidan cocked his eyebrow. "Of course. Not like I would gain anything from lying to you."

"Look into your heart, then look into my eyes. Now say that again, word for word," Leanna said.

Um…

It's almost Crossley Group's anniversary. I have a feeling something big is going to happen. Now that she had gotten a part of the company, her mission was basically done. As for Lloyd's study, she wouldn't be able to enter it. It used to be locked, and now Georgina was keeping an eye on her just to get any possible dirt on her. Since I can't get into the study, I probably won't find anything useful. Staying would be pointless. A moment later, she said, "I have one last thing to settle. After that, I'll move out."

A frown furrowed Aidan's brows. "And what's that?"

Oh, I'm suffocating. Leanna pried his arms away. "Lloyd promised he'd make Georgina apologize to Louis. She won't do it when he's not around, so I have to wait until he's back."

Aidan flicked her forehead. "You just love spending your time on trivial matters."

"This isn't trivial. Louis is my brother. I need to protect him."

"Well, I don't see you protecting me."

"Do you even need my protection?" she asked.

Aidan said seriously, "I can't sleep alone at night. I need you by my side."

Leanna gnashed her teeth and picked up the knife beside her. A smile tugged on Aidan's lips. He quickly kissed her cheek and left the kitchen while she went about making dinner. Halfway through, Aidan asked if she needed help, but she chased him off. He would only destroy the kitchen.

It was already eight when they finished dinner. It's been a while since I was this full. I think I should walk it off, Leanna thought. She did the dishes and came back out. "I want to stroll around, Aidan. Do you want to come?"

Aidan looked at the time. "I have a meeting in five minutes. You go first. I'll come down after the meeting is done."

"Sure."

She was just about to leave when Aidan handed her a jacket. "It's cold outside. Wear this."

"Okay." She took the jacket from him. "I'm going."

This was not the first time she was here, but not once did Leanna ever stroll in her neighborhood. The surroundings were unfamiliar to her at first. A while later, she saw a man-made lake before her, and a lot of families were playing at the lakeside. She approached the lake and leaned on the guardrail. Leanna closed her eyes, and a night breeze kissed her cheeks. Feels like summer.

About half an hour later, Leanna felt that her dinner should be digested already. Aidan's still not here. He's probably still busy. She went back to the apartment, but then she saw a familiar silhouette as she approached the complex. Is that Louis? She called out, "Louis?"

The silhouette paused and slowly turned around.

Leanna hastened her pace. "Oh, it is you. What brings you here?"

"Um…" Louis pursed his lips. "I'm here to see someone."

"Aidan?"

Louis nodded.

"You could have called," Leanna said. "We could have had dinner together."
