Chapter 690 I’m Your Brother

Once Zoe went to sleep, Leanna went back to her home. Aidan was reading on the couch, and he didn't say anything to her as she came in.

Leanna was getting sleepy, and she went to the bedroom. "Have you showered?"

Aidan said coolly, "Yes."

She took her pajamas out of the closet. "It's late. Aren't you going to sleep?"

"Yeah," said Aidan coolly.

Then, Leanna paused and went to sit with him. "What's wrong?"

He flipped a page of his book. "It's alright. Go ahead and shower. Just leave me be."

Oh, what is it this time? Leanna huddled closer and noticed he was reading, but she had no idea what the book was about. "What are you reading?"

"Sutra."

Huh?

Before Leanna could say anything, Aidan said calmly, "I've been sleeping alone for three days. It's time I read some sutras to temper my mind."

She was amused and miffed, then she took the book away and put it aside. "You're not a kid anymore. Do you even need me to sleep with you?"

He looked at her. "Yes, or I can't sleep."

Leanna stood up and patted his head. Like soothing a child, she said, "Yeah, yeah. I'll get showered and sleep with you tonight." She was about to leave, but her wrist was grabbed and she fell into his embrace.

Aidan put his hand on her waist and slowly said, "How are you going to sleep with me?"
