Chapter 278

Aidan stared at her deeply without a word, making Leanna feel a little awkward. She averted her gaze and coughed. "If you don't want to answer that, let's pretend nothing happened, President Pearson."

After a while, he replied nonchalantly, "Now that you bring it up, I do regret it."

"Then, you might as well see Georgina now. It might not be too late." She rose to her feet. "It's late. I shall take my leave first."

She took barely two steps when he held her wrist to pull her into his arms. Before she could free herself, he wrapped his arms around her waist and raised his brow. "Jealous? You don't want me to go?"

Leanna kept a straight face. "I like someone who's hot."

He smiled as his gaze swept across her chest. "Me too."

Realizing where he was looking, she covered her chest and her cheeks flushed. She scolded, "You pervert!"

"How am I a pervert? I'm just liking the same thing as you."

Leanna was rendered speechless.

This man is outta his mind!

"Get away from me!" she commanded fiercely.

He tightened his arms around her waist and rated his chin on her shoulder instead. In a deep voice, he said, "Don't move. Stay like this for a while."

"Didn't you say you regret it, President Pearson? Why don't you hug Georgina?"

"Alright, I was just joking. Look at you being all jelly."

"I—" She was at a loss for words.

Aidan suggested, "I'll send you back half an hour later."

"Aren't you super busy?"
