Chapter 90

When Leanna woke up the next day, the sun was shining brightly outside the window. She came downstairs with a yawn and caught a faint glimpse of someone sitting in the yard, but she didn't take a closer look at it. "Good morning, Ms. Fletcher."

"It's almost 10:00 AM, which means it's almost noon."

Leanna was rendered speechless. She rubbed her eyes, only to realize that the one sitting at the stone table wasn't Naomi at all. Instead, it was Aidan, who was having breakfast. Startled, she asked, "Where's Ms. Fletcher?"

"Away."

Leanna asked in shock, "Why are you here?"

Aidan looked back at her before asking impassively, "Why can't I be here?"

He's right. He's Ms. Fletcher's son, after all, so it makes sense for him to be here. Wait a minute… Did they make up?

Aidan withdrew his gaze as the look in Leanna's eyes changed continuously. "Daydream for another while, and you can have lunch right away."

Only then did Leanna come to her senses and enter the kitchen to get her breakfast.

After sitting down across from Aidan, she finally noticed that he was wearing his white shirt with the sleeves rolled up and the collar open. It seemed like he had stayed the night here yesterday.

Naomi's house had three empty rooms left, but Leanna never thought he would stay the night. Didn't we need a change in mood or something? She couldn't describe her feelings as they stayed under the same roof again and had breakfast at the same table.

Aidan put down his spoon. "Could you eat your fill by looking at me?"

Leanna reflexively lowered her head and ate her porridge in small mouthfuls.

Just as she was halfway through eating it, there was a symbolic knock on the door, followed by Jonathan, who came in with a suitcase. "President Pearson, I've brought your clothes over."

Leanna was dumbfounded. Is he gonna stay here for long?

Aidan mumbled.
