Chapter 446

A black Rolls-Royce stopped at the entrance of the hotel at 6.00PM sharp.

Aidan then got out of the car. After he walked around to the other side, he opened the door and had his sleek eyebrows slightly raised when he reached out to the person inside.

Seeing this, Leanna put her palm in his hand and lifted the hem of her dress. The corners of her lips were lifted when she stepped out of the car.

She was wearing a lavender dress that made her skin look fairer and more delicate, and she had a dainty necklace around her neck. Upon closer look, one would find that the pendant was in the shape of a pocket watch.

She stood beside Aidan and the man stretched out an arm, and she gently linked hers through.

The couple then walked into the hotel together.

A lot of guests who saw this scene couldn't help but talk about them.

"That pair just now. That was President Pearson and his ex… girlfriend, wasn't it?"

"I've heard that she's pretty but now that I'm seeing her in real life for the first time, she's way more gorgeous than any celebrity."

"They look like a match made in heaven. I wonder why they got divorced in the first place."

"It's all because of those trifle matters in the past. Everyone knew that she faked a pregnancy to marry into the Pearson Family at that time. That must be the reason for the divorce."

"That doesn't sound right. If that was the case, why did President Pearson make it such a big deal when he pursued her some time ago?"

"Let me tell you. Speaking of President Pearson's ex-wife, she's had one helluva life. I heard that she was sold to the Patheon Club." The person who spoke lowered his voice. "And word is that it was her father who sold her. She met President Pearson there. You can probably guess what happened next. After that one night they spent together, it didn't take long before she approached the Pearson Family."

"You left out the reason President Pearson pursued her again after the divorce!"

The person who was speaking at first continued, "Calm down. I'm not done. Do you still remember the annulment of the engagement between President Pearson and Georgina Crossley last year? You know that the Crossleys looked down on President Pearson because he is an illegitimate child and felt that he was not worthy of Georgina, who is of blue blood, right? That was why they decided against the marriage at last."

Right then, a cold voice asked, "What happened next?"
