Chapter 330

Leanna sat on the couch and opened up the containers of food in quick succession. Then, she ignored Aidan and began eating.

Aidan sat down beside her. "Weren't those for me?"

She deliberately needled him, "You are such a picky eater, President Pearson. How could these dishes suit your palate? How could somebody who was used to eating all the delicacies in the world be interested in such plain food?"

"Plain food?" He raised his eyebrows slightly. "Is that how you define yourself?"

She said nothing in response.

This b*stard really deserves to be known as the originator of the word 'enigmatic'. I can't believe he managed to figure that out.

Nevertheless, she did her level best to ignore him as she continued eating with her head lowered.

He asked, "Are you still jealous?"

"Jealous? Who is jealous? I…"

"I know. You prefer being spicy." After he said that, he even had the gall to add, "You're spicier than all of them."

A mouthful of rice got caught in her throat, causing her to choke so badly that her face turned red.

He patted her back and handed a glass of water to her. "Nobody is going to snatch the food from you. Eat slowly."

She snatched the water from him and glared at him.

He continued, "I didn't mean to purposely hide this from you. It's just that too many things came up, and I didn't have the time. Besides, I didn't even say much to her. In fact, I didn't even meet with her before you arrived."

After he received the notification regarding Violet's arrival from the receptionist, he went to work at the office downstairs. Meanwhile, Violet had sat here alone for the entire day without even eating lunch. That was also why her temper was so short.

Leanna drank some water and recovered before she responded. "You seemed to be enjoying great fortune in romance recently, President Pearson. How many does that make?"

He was silent for a moment before he probed, "Who did you hear that from?"

"Do I need to hear that from somebody? If you don't want others to find out, then you shouldn't have done it in the first place. So why didn't you tell me this morning?"
