Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 73

In the meantime, Jethro went downstairs delightfully after he received the money, and a black Rolls-Royce suddenly came to a stop in front of him.

The car door swung open, and Aidan stepped out of the car with a deadpan expression. From the corners of his eyes, he glanced at Jethro with what looked like a storm brewing in his dark eyes.

A shiver ran down Jethro's spine as he stumbled backward a few steps. When he wanted to open his mouth to justify himself, Aidan had already stepped past him and headed into the hotel in big strides.

Following behind him closely, Jonathan made a call and received the accurate location. "President Pearson, the ninth floor."

Without stopping, Aidan went straight for the elevators, but the receptionist hurriedly asked, "What are you guys doing—"

Right then, the hotel manager had dashed over and shook his head at her with all his might.

On the ninth floor, Aidan's men swiftly took care of the two men guarding the door, and he turned to the manager who had come along with them. "Open the door," he instructed coldly.

"Y-Yes."

Without wasting a second, the manager opened the door in a fluster.

In the room, Leanna was slumped on the floor in a seated position next to the bed with a forlorn expression while her clothes were in a mess. The moment the door was opened, she seemed to snap back to her senses and her grip on the blood-stained ashtray tightened.

When Aidan appeared before her eyes, she was a little stunned, as though she wasn't expecting to see him here.

Standing on the spot, Aidan instructed without even looking back, "Wait at the door."

"Okay," Jonathan answered.

Taking off his jacket, Aidan crouched down in front of her, placed the jacket over her shoulders and reached for the ashtray in her hand, but she didn't release it as she merely kept her eyes fixed on him.

"I'm here. Everything is okay now," he said.

Quietly, Leanna thought, It's not like that. Should I knock him in the head as well using this opportunity?

With a little force, he pried open her fingers and pulled her to her feet from the waist after he tossed it aside.

Jonathan nodded in reply.
