Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 156

Chapter 156

"No particular reason. I just don't want to get married."

Georgina snorted in contempt. "Aidan, do you think marriage is some kind of game that you can just jump in and out of whenever you want? Everyone knows that we're getting married now! You—"

"You're the one who wanted to announce it to the world."

"You agreed to it!"

"Georgina, you know very well the reason why I agreed to it."

Georgina bit her lip until it almost bled before saying, "It's because of Miss McKinney, isn't it?"

"Our marriage was merely a win-win deal for both our families. It has nothing to do with anyone else. Crossley Group shares have increased by 3% in the past month, so you're not losing out on anything," Aidan stated coolly.

His voice was void of any emotion as if the marriage was nothing more than a business transaction. Georgina took a deep breath and declared indignantly, "Whatever the case, everyone knows that we're getting married, so what am I supposed to do if you break it off now? How are you going to explain this to my father?"

"You don't need to concern yourself with that, Miss Crossley. The marriage will be called off because an illegitimate son like me isn't fit to marry you."

Georgina's expression changed at once. "Aidan, what—"

"I'm busy. Have a good day, Miss Crossley."

Aidan hung up on her without letting her finish her sentence.

Jonathan held his breath as he stood beside Aidan.

President Pearson is willing to take a hit for a Pyrrhic victory. He got what he wanted, but at what cost?

The reality now was that the Pearsons could no longer use Leanna's unborn child to achieve their goals, so they turned all their attention to the marriage alliance with the Crossleys.

While they were not impressed by the marriage at first, it had to be said that the Crossley family did have a sizable business and family fortune without an appointed heir. It was quite enticing all the same.

Now that Aidan decided to call off the wedding, Gordon would most likely have a conniption.

After getting into the elevator, Aidan instructed Jonathan, "Make the announcement before midnight tonight."
