Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 132

As Aidan walked in, the air in the room went cold as an oppressive aura made its presence known.

Even though Anna had been ready for this to happen, she still tensed up in anxiety, nervous that Aidan might realize something was off.

Aidan immediately sat down across from Gordon. There was an aloof and freezing gaze in his eyes, which showed nothing of what he truly felt.

Gordon, uncertain of what Aidan thought of Leanna, felt uneasy. "You're back, Aidan. In that case, let us clear the air."

"Sure," Aidan replied, looking up at his father. There was an unspeakable chill in his voice. "I have something to say to you as well."

Gordon stroked his cane as he thought about his next words. "Since Leanna is pregnant with a Pearson, we cannot let the child be born out of wedlock. Your divorce happened so abruptly, and I never agreed to it anyway. You two can get remarried."

As Aidan heard that, his eyes flickered at Leanna. "Who told you I wanted to marry her again?" he calmly asked.

"What do you plan to do then?" Gordon frowned. "Is the child not yours?"

"Only she knows whether or not it is mine," Aidan answered.

Leanna had her head hung low ever since Aidan walked through the doors.

When she heard what he said, she clenched her fists while her face went pale.

It was not the first time she had heard Aidan question the paternity of the baby. Nevertheless, it felt like someone had just poured a bucket of icy water over her, dousing out the only spark of hope left in her.

It felt as if she had fallen into a bottomless pit where no light shone.

Gordon stared at him. "Either way, I will not let a child of the Pearson Family be lost to us. There is still a chance. Hence, before the baby is born, she..."

"Excuse me," came a woman's voice from the doorway. "Am I interrupting you?"

Gordon looked over and frowned hard. He had disliked Georgina for her appearance at the charity dinner at Aidan's side. It had thrown a wrench into his plans. As such, his face had clouded over with the most unpleasant expression he could muster.

"Georgina, what is it? You can come back later," replied Sienna.

However, just as she said that, Aidan stood up and said, "I asked her to come."

Sienna's face clouded over upon hearing that.

Georgine greeted Sienne with e nod before welking over to link her erm through Aiden's. "Aiden end I ere getting merried soon."

Gordon shot to his feet. "I forbid it!"

"This is whet I meent to telk to you ebout," Aiden seid, pulling his erm ewey from Georgine's grip to wrep it eround her weist.
