Chapter 254

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the apartment entrance and Leanna hopped out. When she wanted to walk in, she saw the b*stard's car parked by the side of the street.

How did he manage to get here before me? she wondered, pouting her lips unwittingly as the door of the Rolls-Royce swung open and the tall, well-built figure of a man appeared before her eyes.

Nonchalantly, Aidan cast her a look. "Why did you leave so fast?"

"To have dinner at home," she answered with a straight face.

"Well, I haven't eaten as well. Let's have dinner together."

"Are you studying kinship recently, President Pearson?"

Ignoring her, he stood at the entrance to the building and stuck his hand into his pocket. Then, he tilted his head, gesturing for her to open the door.

Taking a deep breath, she took out the access card from her purse, and after the door was opened, he held the door open to let her in first.

"I didn't know that you had a gentlemanly side to you," Leanna said.

His eyebrow shot up. "That depends on the recipient."

Zoe stopped mid sentence when she caught sight of the man behind Leanna.

She chuckled dryly a couple of times and turned around. "Why am I sleepy all of a sudden? I'm going to bed now!"
