I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 819

Chapter 819 But Would It Matter Now?

The moment Leanna finished speaking, the kitchen was dead silent—so quiet that you could have heard a pin drop.

Louis was now hunched over, hiding his face from view.

Seeing him like that, she pursed her lips. "Louis, I…"

He paused before continuing to chop vegetables and indifferently responded, "You don't need to console me. I'm used to it already."

Leanna then retorted, "I'm not consoling you. I've already run a paternity test, and William is—"

"Everything ended for me when Jethro McKinney died. It doesn't matter who my biological father is."

Upon hearing that, Leanna was stunned and attempted to speak, but Louis had already started cooking and the kitchen was now filled with the sound of food being prepared.

She knew that he didn't want to discuss this topic any further.

Throughout those agonizing and painful years from his early years to Jethro's passing, Louis had always hoped that he was not Jethro's son.

That thought seemed like his hope for survival, but luck did not come to him, nor did it favor him.

He turned his resentment of Jethro against himself, especially after learning that everything Leanna had gone through was Jethro's fault.

If someone had told him back then that Jethro was not his biological father, it would have been a relief and redemption for him.

But would it matter now?

Leanna also knew in her heart that even though she had forgotten her childhood, she could still sense the love between her and William as a father-and-daughter relationship.

However, Louis was in a different situation because, since his birth, he had never experienced true fatherly love.

And William was a total stranger to him.

And, as a result of Jethro's past actions, William nearly…

Louis was aware of the distance and hostility even though they weren't expressed outright.


He had pretended that nothing had happened to make things easier for her.

At this point, Leanna closed her eyes, suddenly unsure of what to say.

And neither of them brought up this topic at dinner.

Suddenly, Louis asked, "Is Aidan not coming back for dinner?"

"He's working late at the company tonight, so he'll be back late," Leanna said as she sipped her soup.

"How's it going at Jamesdon? Is Noah doing alright?"

Leanna nodded and replied, "Everything's going well. It shouldn't be long before you can see him."

They'd been back from Jamesdon for nearly two months.

And three months, as promised, were almost up.

Then, Leanna continued, "What about your school? Do you still have fans coming to see you?"

"The school has talked to me about it and told me not to worry. They will make arrangements for someone to handle it."

"That's good. You should focus on your studies. It's already your sophomore year, and you don't have much time left in college."

Leanna felt nostalgic when she mentioned this.

When she was studying, she had to work multiple part-time jobs each day, but her only concern was how to get away from Jethro.

It wasn't like now, when problems seemed to arise nonstop every day.

After finishing dinner, Louis went back to school.

Leanna tidied up the house and sat on the couch.

Aidan arrived home at 11.00PM and found her staring at her phone, dazed. He walked over to her, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Leanna quickly glanced up and set her phone down after hearing his voice. "Nothing. Have you eaten? If not, I'll get you something."

"I've eaten." Aidan loosened his tie with one hand and sat down next to her. "Didn't you call Louis over? Did he leave?"

Leanna nodded lightly and responded, "He left."

"What did you guys talk about?"

Leanna kept her head down, her face glum.

When the paternity test results came back, she thought she would be happy, but it now seemed that wasn't the case.

"Are you upset?" Aidan asked as he raised her chin.

"No," she replied, her face drained.

"You were in a good mood this afternoon. Did Louis upset you? I'll go teach him a lesson," said Aidan as he was about to get up.

Leanna reached out and held him back. "No, it's not him. Why are you jumping to conclusions? He didn't upset me, I'm just…"

She wasn't sure how to say it for a moment.

Aidan patted her head, and remarked, "Alright, so it's not about him. Tell me. I'll help you to solve it."
