Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 180

Five minutes later, Jonathan stopped the car next to Leanna and Aidan, thereafter getting out of the car quickly to open the door to the backseat.

After Aidan helped Leanna in, he went around the car and got in from the other side.

When Jonathan was about to type in the address on the GPS, he suddenly thought of what happened last time, and he coughed and called out in a low voice, "Miss McKinney?"

She only indifferently told him an address before she leaned into the corner of the seat and shut her eyes.

After a while, she felt a shirt being used to cover her torso.

She neither moved nor spoke to him.

Seeing her tilt her body and having her back toward him, Aidan instructed Jonathan to start driving.

"Understood," Jonathan replied.

With how silent the car was the entire journey home, Aidan had a feeling that Leanna had really fallen asleep.

As he quietly looked at her from the corner of his eye, he suddenly recalled the question she asked him earlier.

Even though Little Pea was doing much better than at the beginning, there was still no guarantee that another accident wouldn't happen again in the future.

Aidan would send Little Pea back to Leanna after it was doing better after some time. Still, there was no point in letting her know all about this now.

Leanna must have felt the lingering gaze on her and she, initially like a person who was asleep, reached out a hand from the shirt and tugged it until it was covering her head.

Aidan's lips pressed into a thin line then, and he swiftly looked away.

The car came to a stop outside the apartment half an hour later.

At last, it was Jonathan who broke the deadly silence in the car. "We are here, Miss McKinney."

The person covered by the shirt moved, and she then peeled the shirt off her as she sat up. Leanna's voice was very calm when she uttered her thanks.

She then made a move to get out of the car. After she opened the car door, Aidan called out from behind. "You are not allowed to go tomorrow," he demanded.

Leanna's temper immediately flared again when she heard his tone of voice, and she sassed, "I am going anyway!"

She forcefully shut the door after throwing that out, and left without giving him another glance.

Looking at her retreating figure, Aidan began to gnash his teeth angrily.

…

Zoe had waited at home for a long time and she was starting to panic when Leanna hadn't gone home, and neither did she pick up her phone the whole night. The former was about to head out to look around when the door suddenly opened from outside instead.
