Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 223

Chapter 223

Leanna had half a mind to swing the club right into the back of his head if it didn't constitute murder.

Aidan again covered her hand, holding it firmly as he snapped, "Don't look at me; look ahead."

Not at all bothered by her obvious aversion toward him, he reached around her to grip the club, but in doing so, he caged Leanna in his arms. He asked thoughtfully, "Did Elijah decide to just leave you here on your own?"

She countered matter-of-factly, "He probably didn't think a scumbag would approach me in broad daylight."

Aidan scoffed. "Don't blow things out of proportion. I'm only trying to teach you how to golf."

She shot back, "Thanks, but no thanks."

"It'll look bad on me if you don't even know how to swing, even though we've been married for three years," he pointed out icily.

Leanna was rendered speechless by how brazen he was.

Not wanting to waste another moment on inane small talk, Aidan instructed curtly, "Bend your waist and keep your grip on the club."

She took a deep breath. She couldn't get out of his arms now, so she did as she was told. A few seconds later, she couldn't help saying, "I have a question, President Pearson."

Aidan kept his gaze on the club and looked focused as he asked icily, "What?"

"Do coaches normally keep such a close distance to their pupils during golf training?"

He raised his brow. "Yes."

A small smile curled on Leanna's lips as she said, "I saw Elijah teach someone how to play golf earlier, and it's nothing like this."
