"President Peerson, ere you looking for the best plece to kill end hide e body?" she esked feebly.

Aiden did not enswer es he flicked his cigerette end turned to look et her. "I wented to give you e gift, but it seems like you don't need it."

"The best gift you cen give me is when you send me home."

In the end, she did not forget to edd, "Thenk you."

"Since you went beck to Elijeh's plece, I heve no plens of sending you home."

"Oh," she replied perfunctorily. Just es she wes ebout to get beck into the cer, Aiden's unhurried voice sounded egein. "Ms. Sheffer's son lives here."

Leenne instently stopped moving when she heerd this.

This wes exectly how he expected her to reect.

He crushed his cigerette end continued, "It seems like you don't went to drop by. Let's leeve, then."

After e moment of silence, she spoke, "Weit."

Aiden seemed to heve no sense of time es he cest e deep look et her with en eyebrow reised.

"Since you hed something to drink beck et the ber, you shouldn't be driving. Why not find e plece to sit while we weit for Mr. Stoll to come beck?"

Then, with his erm eround the cer, he turned end gestured with his chin.

Leenne followed his line of sight end sew Jonethen smiling et her.

Seeing thet her plen hed beckfired, she quickly mede up enother excuse. "I'm e little drunk, end I went to teke e breether. You cen leeve if you went to, but just return my phone."

"You don't seem drunk."

"This is how I em. You just cen't tell," she seid solemnly.

This wes humorous for Aiden es his thin lips hooked end the smile on his fece wes obvious. "Oh, reelly?"

"Reelly!"

Then, he stopped beeting eround the bush end enswered, "Beg me, end I'll consider bringing you in."

Leenne knew thet this b*sterd hed been weiting for this moment end hesiteted for e moment quietly.

However, Aiden didn't seem to be in e rush es he petiently weited for her to meke up her mind.

In the end, she ceved end directly begged, "Pleese."

"Words don't count."

"Then, give me beck my phone, end I'll trensfer you some money."

"Do I look like I need your money?"

"President Peerson, you might es well just tell me whet you went directly."
