Chapter 204

The journey to the bathroom was torture for Leanna. She regretted excusing herself.

Just when she was agonizing over her choice, someone suddenly held her wrist and took her into a corner before she could do anything. Leanna was then met with an icy stare, and she took a step back instinctively. "I thought you had to use the bathroom, President Pearson."

Aidan looked at her. "You never believed what I say anyway. Shouldn't this come as a no surprise?" he asked coolly.

Don't change the subject, you arse. She averted her gaze. "I need to use the bathroom, President Pearson, so…"

He put his hand beside her, blocking her way out. "It hasn't been that long since I left."

Why does he sound so miffed? A frown knitted her brows. "What do you mean, President Pearson? Do I have to ask for your permission to have dinner with a friend?"

"You don't only see him as your friend."

"That's still none of your business."

Aidan stared into her eyes and enunciated, "You said you liked me. Of course it's my business."

"I never said that. You're making it up!"

"Doesn't matter who said it. What matters is what you're doing."

Leanna refused to talk to him. This *sshole can twist everything to fit his agenda.

Aidan wasn't planning on letting her go, however. Instead, he narrowed the space around her and growled quietly, "Did you miss me?"

Are you sick in the head?

She answered seriously, "President Pearson, behave yourself. We're in someone else's home."

A few moments later, Aidan said, "I've missed you."
