Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 120

After she finished her words, Georgina clasped her hands together and rested them on her knees as she was genuinely nervous. Even though she had managed to analyze the whole situation clearly, she still couldn't tell what was going on in Aidan's mind. He had turned himself from an illegitimate child into the widely-feared President Pearson, so he was clearly someone of astounding intelligence and capabilities. However, even though it seemed like Aidan was on the losing end within the Pearson Group this time, Georgina still wasn't sure if her terms were attractive enough for him.

Aidan curled her lips into a smile as he gazed at her with an unimpressed look. "You want me to marry you, huh?"

Georgina took a deep breath. "That's right. If it weren't for the mistake that occurred in between, we should've been the ones getting married three years ago. Furthermore, both our families have already—"

"I think you might have misunderstood something." Aidan interrupted her. "They wanted you to get married to Justin, not me."

Georgina froze upon hearing this. "How could that be? I've always treated Justin as a brother…" she muttered. "That's why no one brought it up," Aidan replied. Sienna was fond of Georgina, but if she had found out that Georgina was getting married to Aidan, she wouldn't have allowed herself to get too close to Georgina. She couldn't bring herself to be fond of a woman who was about to marry a man she despised.

There were two main reasons why no one had ever brought up the marriage between Georgina and Justin. Firstly, Justin had a firm stance on this matter—he refused to agree to the marriage regardless of Sienna's words. Sienna had no choice but to give up on him. Secondly, since the Crossleys were a wealthy family, and Georgina was their only daughter, her father was extremely fond and overprotective of her. Her family would never allow her to date someone with a physical disability. These were the main reasons no one ever suggested a marriage between the Crossleys and Pearsons.

On the other hand, Sienna would never allow Georgina to marry Aidan—that was probably the last thing Sienna wanted. Gordon was worried that Aidan would start disobeying them after he grew more powerful, so Gordon immediately ordered Aidan and Leanna to get married when Lenna showed up.

Georgina calmed down before speaking again. "If that's the case, don't you have more reason to marry me? In that case, they would be helpless, and you'd be able to get revenge on them!" she uttered.

Aidan simply knocked his long fingers on the desk's surface as he thought about something. "Our marriage would be just like Anna and Zayn's marriage, Aidan. Both parties would benefit from this. You know how I'm the only daughter at home, Aidan. I'm bad at managing the company, so I will hand over all of the business to you in the future. I'd rather marry you than some random guy that I've barely met. You're the best option I have in mind." Georgina insisted.

Aidan's calm voice filled the room. "But you're not my best option," he

The words Aidan spat out of his mouth were like ice shards stabbing through Georgina's skin. His icy gaze made Georgina clench her fists in fear. Even though her lashes were trembling, she kept a smile on her face. "The walls have ears, don't they?" she said with a smile. "However, you don't have
