Chapter 65

When Leanna heard Justin's words, she simply pursed her lips and said nothing.

It was indeed true that she really didn't understand the Pearsons' family situation. However, she wasn't that bothered about them either.

When he saw how silent Leanna was, he continued, "There might be something that Aidan didn't tell you, but we are actually half-brothers."

It felt like a bombshell had dropped on her; Leanna was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"My father had Aidan outside with his mistress." Justin turned his wheelchair and said slowly, "I had a car accident when I was ten years old. My legs became disabled, and I wouldn't be able to stand up again for the rest of my life. However, the Pearson Family needed someone to inherit their empire. Hence, my father brought Aidan back when he was only seven years old. Since my mother always felt that Aidan had stolen what should be rightfully mine, she didn't like him very much."

As Justin spoke, he smiled. "Although I shouldn't blame Aidan for my car accident, my mother's thoughts are a bit extreme. As such, I can only try to be the mediator between them. In addition, Pearson Group has developed rapidly ever since Aidan took over and joined the company. Even my father began to fear him. The reason why they are so anxious to get Anna and Zayn engaged is because they want to use the strength of the Barnett Family to slowly transfer their shares in Aidan's hands."

Although Justin was very obscure with words, Leanna still understood a little. Aidan is actually the illegitimate son of the Pearson Family. Because of this, he had a hard time in this family. Outwardly, he may look like the mighty Aidan Pearson, but in reality, his father has begun training others for fear that Aidan would steal his limelight, and he's afraid that he won't be able to keep Aidan under his control one day.

All of a sudden, Leanna understood why Aidan's parents disregarded Aidan's opposition three years ago and desperately wanted her to marry into the Pearson Family.

What they really want is the baby in my womb.

Subconsciously, Leanna put her hand on her stomach, and she felt cold sweat on her back at the thought of that.

No wonder Aidan refuses to have a child. If the Pearson Family knows about the existence of this baby, they will definitely go to great lengths and take this child away from me.

Justin then added, "I grew up watching Aidan. Although he has a cold temper and doesn't often show mercy when he speaks, he doesn't have the insidiousness and shrewdness someone has in this circle. He's always been sober and knows exactly what he wants on this bloody battlefield."

"Perhaps because of his living environment since childhood, Aidan is used to seeing anyone as evil. This also leads to the fact that even if he wants to care about a person in his heart, the words that come out of his mouth might sound indifferent. Sometimes, you can't just listen to what he says; you have to see what he does. That's the real him."


However, Leanna wanted to tell Justin that the things Aidan did were no better than the words he spoke.
