Chapter 39

"Speak." In a straightforward manner, Aidan shot his words in a gruff voice.

Leanna licked her lips before asking cautiously, "I just found out that my gastric pills are gone. I wonder if I left it in your office..."

"No."

Without waiting for her response, he hung up the phone immediately after his brief reply.

She was left speechless by his action.

He could have simply declined nicely. Why did the b*stard have to be so obnoxious?

Although she deliberately referred to her bottle of folic acid as gastric pills, she could not help but think that the b*stard would infinitely assume she was scheming her way to him again by leaving her bottle of folic acid at his office. I can already imagine his mocking face and tone, Leanna thought as she lay on her bed.

For the entire night, worry got the best of her as she was not able to sleep well at all. As such, she woke up early the next morning and went back to the cafe and restaurant to inquire again but to no avail.

She could only hope her medicine was dropped on her way home.

In the afternoon, she was not idle either. Instead, she scheduled some appointments to visit a few houses as she intended to sign a contract to move in today if she found a suitable one.

At the office of Pearson Group, Aidan sneered as the IOU and folic acid pills next to him drew his attention away from the pile of documents.

I can't believe she described it as her stomach meds.

With that thought, he pursed his thin lips slightly and finally took out his phone to dial Leanna's number after a long time.

He was curious to see her expression when she retrieved the 'gastric pills' bottle from him as well as to hear some new excuses she could concoct.

When the call was answered, a gentle female voice sounded, "Good day, this is Worthington Hotel. How may I assist you?"

Hearing that, he raised an eyebrow. Hotel?

I thought she was staying at her friend's house. Why is she in a hotel?
