Chapter 89

Leanna wasn't surprised at the frantic accusations Anna threw at her. After falling silent for a moment, she asked, "Do you believe it, President Pearson?"

"Whether I believe it or not depends on your answer."

"No, it's not his." Leanna didn't seem to be in the mood for pointless explanations. She merely replied, "President Pearson, you can find out how many days I've been pregnant, as well as the time of Zayn's return from abroad."

Aidan impassively withdrew his gaze without saying a word.

Leanna opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she thought it was futile to do so.

A few seconds later, Aidan's voice finally rang. "Don't get ahead of yourself. It's not that I believe you; it's just that I don't believe Anna."

Leanna was rendered speechless. What sort of bullsh*t is that?

However, Aidan added, "Leanna, none of the Pearsons are kind." Including me.

Leanna didn't refute him. He's right about that. He's the worst among them, after all. Still… She whispered, "I think your eldest brother is different from them."

Aidan asked, "How do you know that?"

"I've come into contact with him several times. One's character can be sensed from their behavior."

"In that case, why couldn't I sense from your behavior that you were admired by so many people?"

Leanna was lost for words. Taking a deep breath, she replied, "President Pearson, let's discuss this on its own merits. Could you please not stoop to personal abuse?!"

Aidan's lips curled almost imperceptibly. "I'm only discussing the topic on its own merits. What else do you have other than your face? Or are they too stupid to see your heart through the surface?"

"President Pearson, I think that if your opinion on something is different from everyone else's, then you should consider if the problem is with you."
