Chapter 245

Leanna didn't know when she fell asleep. When she woke up, she realized the sky was pitch black.

She sat up and wanted to move her tight neck to hear the sounds of it popping. Crack. Crack

She massaged her neck as she opened her office door and went out. "Louis, help me get the first aid kit out. There's some ointment inside. I think I sprained my—"

Before she finished her sentence, she saw the man sitting on the couch.

Suddenly, not only did her neck hurt, her head started to ache.

Aidan slowly looked up at her. "You're awake?"

She asked him, "Why are you here, President Pearson?"

He looked at the gift on the table. "I saw that you liked the pictures from last time. So, I got it photocopied. I'll let you have the original pictures."

"Thanks, but no thanks."

Where did he see that she liked it?

Aidan got up and strolled over to her with his long legs. "I remembered someone once told me that if a woman said she didn't want something, it means that she wanted it and that I should look for the person who said those words."

Leanna snickered, "Could it be Mia or Georgina? I didn't say that."

He stopped in his tracks and looked at her gloomily.

She didn't want to entertain him and went to look for the ointment in the utility room.

However, she didn't expect the first aid kit to be placed on the highest rack. Now that she sprained her neck, she couldn't reach it even when she tried to tip-toe.

She was about to grab a chair when a man's long arm was propped on the rack beside her while another hand passed her head to easily retrieve the first aid kit.

Leanna turned around and backed into the rack.
