Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 85

Chapter 85

It was 12.00PM and Leanna went to the kitchen to lend Naomi a helping hand while the latter was making lunch.

Naomi said, "Just wait outside. Why squeeze in here when there's not enough space?"

Leanna asked with a smile, "Ms. Fletcher, could you make more of the stew?"

"Why? Could you finish that much of it?"

"Well…" Leanna's eyes flickered. "My friend would like to have some, too. I'll bring it to him later."

Naturally, Naomi knew which 'friend' that Leanna was referring to. Instead of giving an answer, she merely added some more water to the stew, saying impassively, "As you wish."

Leanna suppressed a smile. "In that case, Ms. Fletcher, I'll be waiting outside."

"Uh-huh," Naomi mumbled.

A smile curved Leanna's lips for a moment as she sat in the yard while resting her chin in one hand. At last, she found out who Aidan had inherited his tendency to say one thing and mean another from.

After lunch, she went leisurely to the hotel while carrying the thermos Naomi had left in the kitchen. Jonathan led her to the door to Aidan's room, saying, "Miss McKinney… President Pearson may refuse to see you at the moment."

He refuses to see anyone, let alone her, he thought.

Leanna replied, "It's okay. I just want to talk to him for a second. If he really doesn't want to see me, then never mind."

He nodded. "In that case, Miss McKinney, please call me if there's anything," he said before fleeing the explosive battlefield as fast as he could.

She pressed the doorbell and asked, "President Pearson, could you hear me?"

There was no answer from inside the room. After waiting for a few seconds, she rang the doorbell several times again, saying in a louder voice, "President Pearson, I've brought you some fish stew. If you still don't come out, I'll finish it myself."
