I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 696 No Saving the Brain Rot

The elevator finally came to a stop, and Aidan led Leanna out. Only then did the men heave a sigh of relief. Their backs were already drenched with sweat. Guess the celebration is going to be one heck of an event.

Leanna walked into the wall chuckling while holding Aidan's arm. He's always such a prankster. I bet those men are going to have nightmares just thinking about Pearson.

Since there were too many guests this time, not even the hotel's biggest ballroom could house everyone, so the company reserved two ballrooms. Each one was on a different floor. One floor was for the employees, while the other was reserved for the bigwigs in the entertainment, business, and political world. Almost all of the guests had arrived, and they were chatting around as they drank.

When everyone saw Leanna and Aidan, they stopped talking and stared at them. This was the first time Aidan appeared in public ever since he left the company. Aidan looked around, causing everyone to look away and pretend that they weren't just staring.

Leanna looked around as well, and she saw Theodore among the crowd. She cocked her eyebrow in surprise.

Aidan looked in the direction she was looking. "What is it?"

"When was he discharged?"

"A few days ago."

"It's been more than a month. His wounds should be healed, but why are there scabs on his face?"

"Maybe someone beat him up again?"

Huh? Leanna met Aidan's gaze and tilted her head to the side, asking a silent question.

Aidan said, "Yep. It was your brother."

"Oh my God, he tried to touch Daphne again?"

"Hey, the only good man is a dead man." After a short pause, Aidan said, "Except for me, of course. I'm a good man all the time."

"No, I think that quote suits you perfectly."
