Chapter 324

Leanna lay on the bed, deep in thought that night. She had initially planned to send a message to Louis but decided otherwise after some consideration.

Speaking of which, it was the first time Louis had a crush on somebody. Boys were generally sensitive and awkward at his age. What would happen if she hurt his self-esteem by revealing his secret?

With these thoughts in mind, she kept her phone away and tried to sleep. The keyword being 'try' as she simply could not fall asleep.

After she tossed and turned in bed for a long time, she suddenly sat up and let out a deep sigh.

The b*stard isn't here, and there's nobody to bother me. I should be over the moon, but for some reason, it feels like something is missing instead.

Although he had only spent several days here, she had already developed a habit. A terrible habit that she should definitely break, yes.

She sat there, leaning against the bed frame for some time. In the end, she picked up her phone again and sent a message to Aidan asking whether he was busy.

Despite waiting for twenty minutes, Aidan did not reply to her message. It would seem that he was truly swamped with work.

So, she placed her phone on her bedside table, turned off the lights, and lay back on the bed. Then, she closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep. After all, she was going to visit the Crossley Family tomorrow. But there was no doubt that it would be an uphill battle tomorrow.

A long time passed. Her breathing finally slowed down, and she fell asleep.

She was deeply asleep when she felt a sudden chill behind her. Someone had pressed against her back and pulled her into an embrace. At the same time, a familiar scent filled her nose.

In her half-asleep state, she mumbled vaguely, "Didn't you say that you were not coming back?"

The man's voice was low. "You missed me." So, I came back.

She did not respond to his words. In any case, she was so sleepy that she did not have the strength to respond.

When she fell asleep again, Aidan kissed her on the lips once more.

The urgent news he received tonight was that the Crossley Group had successfully signed a contract with William. The project had also been officially handed over to William.

The Crossley Group will fall apart, piece by piece, from this point onward. Now, we will just have to see how long it will take for Lloyd to notice his downfall.
