Chapter 726 You’re Not as Happy as You Were on the Day We Got Divorced

The next day, as Leanna remained sound asleep, Aidan abruptly lifted her from the bed.

Groggily, she opened her eyes and glanced at the dimly lit sky. "What's going on?"

Aidan gently kissed her forehead. "I'll explain later. Go wash your face for now."

Seeing no signs of trouble in his expression, she dismissed any worries and closed her eyes to resume her sleep.

However, within a couple of seconds, he lifted her again and carried her directly into the bathroom.

Caught off guard, Leanna was instantly rendered speechless.

Then, she untangled herself from his hug and said, "Okay, okay, I got it."

He squeezed toothpaste onto her toothbrush and playfully tousled her hair. "I'll go grab breakfast. What do you feel like eating?"

With the toothbrush in her mouth, she mumbled, "Anything. I'm good with anything."

Once he left, she sat on the toilet seat with the toothbrush in her mouth while staring blankly.

Ugh, President B*stard wouldn't let me get any sleep last night, and now he's dragging me out of bed this early in the morning? Seriously?

It took her some time to gather herself again. After rinsing her mouth and splashing her face with cold water, she finally started to feel more awake.

Then, she returned to the bedroom and took out her phone to check the time. To her surprise, it wasn't even 7.00AM yet.

He's totally unreasonable. She yawned and stumbled her way out.

There was a glass of water on the table, and its temperature was just right for drinking.

At that precise moment, Aidan returned just as she finished the last drop of water.

During breakfast, she asked, "Why are we getting up so early for?"

"We're going to do something you've already forgotten about," he replied casually.

"What?" she responded with confusion.

What did I forget?

Even after zoning out for a couple of seconds, Leanna couldn't recall it and decided to give up.

After finishing her meal, she returned to the bedroom to change her clothes. As she stepped into the walk-in closet, her eyes caught sight of a milk-white, floor-length dress hanging in the most conspicuous spot.
