Chapter 673 These Are All the Things You Deserve

Leanna woke up after barely two hours of sleep.

It was evident that Aidan had not slept a wink either. He opened his eyes as soon as she stirred in his arms.

She turned back to look at him and whispered, "Did I wake you up? Go back to sleep. I was just…"

Halfway through her sentence, she felt a hand on her wrist.

He pulled her back into his arms and murmured in a hoarse voice, "Are you hungry?"

"No."

"Then, sleep for a little longer."

She said nothing more and simply leaned against his chest quietly.

His heartbeat was strong and steady. She couldn't help but feel filled with a sense of security as she listened to his heartbeat.

She couldn't help wondering, I can rely on Aidan when I'm at a loss for what to do. But what about Aidan? Who does he turn to or rely on?

It all started when Noah fell ill. Afterward, they were lured to Jamesdon, where they learned the truth before they returned to Highside again. Aidan then spent more than half a month settling the affairs of the Pearson Group and convening a meeting between the board of directors. Finally, he brought Justin back and gave up his position as the president of the Pearson Group.

So many things had happened within the past two or three months.

Aside from the night that they learned the truth, Leanna had never seen Aidan expressing his emotions outwardly before. Instead, he had to endure everything quietly and made all the decisions by himself.

Alas, before the dust even had the time to settle, he was dragged into the turmoil of grievances once more because of her.

After a while, Leanna's voice rang out softly, "Aidan."

Aidan's voice was low, "Hmm?"

"Thank you."

He was slightly taken aback, so he paused for a moment. "What?"

She replied, "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have needed to concern yourself with these matters."

He tightened his arm around her waist and hugged her a little harder. "Are you still asleep? Why are you mentioning that now?"

His response left her feeling speechless for a moment.

Then, she reached out and shoved at him in annoyance. "I was being serious. You could have gotten a good rest after settling the affairs of the Pearson Group, instead…"

He interrupted, "You are right in saying that, but you should change the words 'Thank you' to 'Honey' instead. That would make me far happier."

The audacity of his words left her at a loss for words.

As usual, this guy has nothing in his mind but nonsense.

Hence, she wriggled out of his arms and escaped his embrace. "Alright. I'm getting out of bed since I can't sleep anyway."

After she said that, she rolled out of bed.

Aidan stared at her back as he slowly sat up on the bed with a slight smile turning the corners of his lips upward.

When they arrived at the hospital, the security around the place remained very strict.

The elevator had just stopped at the top floor when William's assistant rushed over and spoke to them, "President Pearson, Leanna! Mr. Morris is no longer in critical condition. I was just about to inform you about the good news."

Leanna dashed toward the hospital ward upon hearing the fantastic news.

William was no longer lying in the intensive care unit like yesterday, and there was no glass wall separating him from the outside either.

As she stood beside the hospital bed, she could clearly see just how badly he had been injured. His entire person seemed almost devoid of life at this point.

She felt her eyes redden with tears once more while she looked at the scene before her.

The assistant and Aidan joined her soon enough.

Leanna took a deep breath and forced her tears back. "Did the doctor mention when he would awaken?"

The assistant shook her head. "Not yet. But, there's no need to worry, Miss McKinney. I'm sure Mr. Morris will be fine. His condition from twenty years ago was far worse than this, but he survived and got back to his feet anyway."

That was part of William's past that Leanna had deliberately been avoiding asking about so far.

Leroy's main target in that explosion had been William, so he would have gone to great lengths to ensure William's death. But, be that as it may, William survived under those conditions.

How much pain and agony had he suffered back then? Just thinking about his pain made Leanna's chest tighten in distress.

She could almost imagine the pain that penetrated deep into her bones as it circulated throughout her blood.

Aidan wrapped his arm around Leanna's shoulders. "Since he has gotten past the critical period, it will only be a matter of time until he wakes up. Don't worry."

She nodded lightly. Suddenly, she seemed to recall something and glanced back at the assistant. "What about Cameron? Where is he right now?"

The assistant replied, "Mr. Morris immediately sent him away when Daniel went missing. He is currently in a safe place."

Leanna breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing those words.

The person in the greatest danger at the moment was Daniel.
