Chapter 71

After bringing Leanna to the president's office, Jonathan informed her, "Miss McKinney, President Pearson is in a meeting. Please wait a moment."

Leanna nodded lightly. "Thank you."

He poured a cup of water for her and reminded her warmly, "President Pearson is in a meeting with the board of directors, and the chairman is also here, so it might turn out unpleasant. If he loses his temper and lashes at you later, please don't take it to heart..."

"It's fine. Even if he grabs a rope and strangles me on the spot, I won't be surprised."

Jonathan was left speechless. He subconsciously felt an itch in his neck and quickly left.

The board of directors of Aidan was held much longer than expected. The previous night, Gordon announced the marriage of Zayn and Anna at Sienna's birthday party.

After the Pearson Family and the Barnett Family were officially married, Gordon could not wait to make use of the situation to alter the Pearson Family and slowly take over Aidan's power.

Leanna waited from the morning until it was dark. While waiting, she became hungry but just as she thought about going downstairs to grab a quick meal, she recalled the new regulations that targeted Lux Jewelry. If she had not contacted Jonathan beforehand, she might have been stopped downstairs.

Fortunately, Jonathan also kept an eye on her. Not only did he bring lunch to her, he even dropped some snacks for her.

For a moment, Leanna doubted whether she came here to negotiate. After eating the last mini cake, she cleaned up the trash on the table and lay on the couch.

Well, it was better to have a full stomach than an empty stomach if she were to fight later.

Once she was full, she would easily become drowsy.

When Aidan returned to the office, he saw her lying on the couch sleeping soundly. He was also amused to find leftover food packaging in the trash can in front of her.

Sitting across from her, he loosened his tie and turned his gaze to her belly, which was covered by baggy clothes, which caused his eyes to darken.

Leanna had not slept a wink last night. Now that she was fully fed and content, she fell asleep on the couch like it was her own home. When she rolled over in her slumber, she suddenly felt like half of her body was dangling in the air. She immediately flung open her eyes to see a man standing in front of her. After a few seconds, she realized where she was.

Aidan sat back on the couch again and questioned coldly, "Have you gotten enough sleep?"
