Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 147

Soon enough, there was a knock on the bedroom door.

The servant came with Leanna's breakfast and said, "Old Master Pearson has given instructions that you are not to head downstairs for the next few days. If you have anything that you need at all, just let me know. I will bring your meals into the room for you at the same time each day."

Leanna was not surprised at all by the scenario, so she nodded gently without being emotionally affected.

Judging by the incidents from yesterday, Gordon would surely blame every issue onto her. Hence, it was natural for him to not wish to lay eyes on her anymore.

As for the esteemed guest today…

She recalled the scene she had caught sight of in front of the window and it was quite likely that Georgina's father had paid a visit.

Therefore, it made sense that she was forbidden from heading downstairs.

She collected the breakfast from the servant and was about to enter her room when she suddenly caught sight of Aidan's figure.

The servant bowed slightly to her and quickly left after that.

At that moment, Leanna's eyes coincidentally met his cold and distant eyes. For a moment there, she was at a loss for whether to greet him politely or pretend that she did not see him and shut the door immediately.

Fortunately, Aidan voiced out first, "Don't trust anyone in this house."

She was perplexed by his words and paused for a moment before saying, "I don't get what you mean, President Pearson…"

"Whatever, then." He retracted his gaze and turned around before suddenly mentioning, "I definitely won't go back on my words."

With that, he did not utter another word and went back to his room.

Leanna was momentarily stunned before shutting the door behind her.

She glanced at the breakfast in front of her and just like that, her appetite was lost.

Truth be told, the words that Aidan said were not exactly a mystery to her. She just did not know the extent of his awareness regarding everything. Does he know that Sienna has come to see me? Or is he aware that Sienna had pre-arranged an escape route for me? As such, she chose to act oblivious.
