Chapter 293

After that night, it was as though Jethro had vanished into thin air. Not only did he not contact Leanna again, but he didn't even appear in any of the underground casinos.

However, Leanna wasn't worried, for she knew better than anyone that Jethro would come to her again once he was short of money. It was only a question of when.

Another day at work drew to an end, and Leanna exited the office after a stretch only to find that Aidan had already arrived some time ago and was looking through a document on the couch.

She couldn't help but smile at the sight as she stood in the doorway.

In moments like this, Leanna would always think the man was a sight to behold; too bad he had a mouth, though.

Aidan, on the other hand, didn't seem to have noticed someone was approaching as his head was still buried in the document in his hands.

Seeing how focused he was, Leanna decided not to bother him but went to sort things out at the front desk.

These days, Aidan would come and pick her up every night to have dinner before sending her home.

Zoe had to wait for her in the beginning, but with time, she gave up and went home as soon as she could. She wasn't having any of their PDA.

It wasn't until Aidan heard noises that he looked toward Leanna. "You done?"

"Yeah." She nodded and grabbed the keys. "Let's go."

Later, when they arrived at Leanna's after dinner, the young woman had just unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out of the car when Aidan grabbed her wrist with a frown. "Do you have to go back?"

"Why are you at it again?"

This had become a routine conversation of theirs every night.

"I don't think our relationship should stop here. It's time we take a step forward," Aidan urged.

Leanna fell silent for a second before exasperating, "Consider yourself lucky that I've not asked for a step back, and yet you want to move forward?"
