Chapter 84

Leanna subconsciously stood in front of Aidan. "Nothing, Ms. Fletcher. It's just a friend. I…"

However, in her desperation, she completely forgot that Aidan was much taller than her, and she couldn't block him from sight at all. Naomi's gaze was turned to her direction, but she was not looking at her and was looking at the person behind her instead.

After a few seconds of silence, Leanna suddenly heard Aidan's voice that carried a hint of coldness. "I'm leaving."

"Huh?" She was stumped. He didn't even leave after what I said earlier. What's with the sudden change?

As Aidan took a few long strides forward, Naomi spoke again. "Aidan…"

Aidan turned a deaf ear to her words and strode away, while Leanna remained frozen in place, unable to figure out what was going on. She noticed that Naomi's expression was odd, but she didn't have time to think too much about it, and followed Aidan out.

Jonathan, who was waiting outside the house, was also extremely confused. Aidan had been fine when he went inside, but his expression was murderous when he came out. How could these two argue so much every day?

As soon as Aidan walked to the front of the car, Leanna followed out and shouted, "President Pearson!"

Aidan didn't react at all as he opened the car door and went inside.

Jonathan looked at Leanna with a confused expression, which she returned. Clearly, neither of them knew what was going on.

However, Aidan had already gotten into the car, so Jonathan didn't dare to linger around and quickly went to the driver's seat. Hence, Leanna could only stand and watch the black Maybach disappear into the distance.

After some time, Naomi's slightly tired voice came from the door. "Leanna."

Leanna retracted her gaze and walked toward her. "Ms. Fletcher."

Naomi glanced at the direction where Aidan had left. "Ai… Is he your friend?"

"...Not at all." Leanna asked in a small voice, "Ms. Fletcher, do you know him?"

As if deep in thought, Naomi looked a little distracted, and it took a few seconds for her to come to her senses before she forced a weak smile. "He's the president of the Pearson Group. I've seen him in newspapers."
