Chapter 285

Leanna returned to her room to lie in bed, but despite feeling totally exhausted, she did not feel sleepy at all.

After half an hour, she heard the vibration of her phone on the bedside table.

Taking the phone into her hands, she found that it was Aidan on the line.

She waited for the phone to ring several times until it was nearly cut off before answering it.

Soon, Aidan's voice rang out. "Were you asleep?"

Leanna replied, "Not yet."

"Still have trouble falling asleep?"

Leanna kept silent.

On the other end of the phone, he added, "I'm taking a flight back tomorrow afternoon."

After some time, she responded by affirming with a hum.

Aidan mentioned, "Did something happen?"

She replied, "No, I'm totally fine. What can happen?"

"You're not being yourself."

Leanna was exasperated as she said, "You're the one who's not being yourself!"

At that moment, a voice on the other end seemed to be asking for Aidan, so he lowered his voice and replied, "Let's talk about things when I'm back. If you really do have an emergency, then seek out Oscar. Don't take any risks by yourself."

"Okay, I got it."

The person on the other end seemed to be quite frantic as they pestered Aidan furiously, prompting him to emphasize, "I'll get Oscar to contact you shortly. Don't turn off your phone."

"Okay."
