Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 82

The neighborhood held the dinner at a famous local restaurant. When Leanna arrived downstairs, she saw Harry waiting for her by the entrance. The latter noticed her arrival and waved at her. "Leanna, over here."

"Sorry I'm late, there was some traffic on the way here," Leanna said after she walked over to Harry.

Coyly, Harry had his hand on the back of his head, as though he was still embarrassed over what happened the night before. "It's fine, don't worry about it. President Pearson and the others still haven't arrived yet. It's cold outside, so let's go in first."

Harry then took her into a private room filled with other upper-ranked leaders. After he introduced Leanna to everyone present, his direct leader laughed and said, "I've heard Harry mention Miss McKinney before this. As expected, she's really a beauty." Saying that, the man patted Harry's shoulder and said softly enough for only Harry's ears, "You're real lucky, kid."

Hearing his leader's remark, Harry smiled sheepishly. The rest of the leaders in the room, who had heard of Leanna, began complimenting Harry as well, saying that he was young and had a promising future.

In such a situation, Leanna couldn't bear to refute this fact in front of the leaders even though she had already made things clear with Harry. Hence, she casually remarked, "I also think he's a good man."

As soon as she made that remark, the room became silent. Harry's direct leader immediately went over to the door and said, "President Pearson." The rest of the leaders followed suit and gave their greetings as well with only Leanna staying still in silence.

Aidan remained indifferent to the leaders and finally laid his eyes on Leanna.

Noticing this, one of the leaders said, "President Pearson, she is one of the residents of Underwood Lane, Leanna, who is also Harry's neighbor."

Aidan only grunted in acknowledgment before he passed her by. The leader who spoke up cleared his throat and followed suit. "President Pearson, please have a seat here."

At the round table, Aidan would naturally be seated at the head position of the table with the highest-ranked leaders sitting to his left. With ranking as the order of seating, Leanna sat next to Harry.

During the meal, Harry noticed Leanna hadn't moved her utensils, which was why he kept putting food on her plate. "Leanna, you should try this. This is one of the most famous local dishes here. It's very delicious."
