Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 526

When Aidan arrived at the garden, he heard a voice in the back. "Aidan."

Turning around, he saw a calm Justin in his wheelchair, quietly sitting not far from him. Aidan approached him and asked, "Did you hear everything?"

Justin nodded lightly. "Yes. You did nothing wrong. If it were me, I would've done the same as well."

Aidan replied, "You could've stayed out of this."

With a resigned smile, Justin replied, "I can only say this isn't something I can control."

He was a member of the Pearson Family, and his mom had also played a part in hurting Leanna, so how could he stay out of it? Even if he knew there was no going back, he wanted to drag this secret for as long as possible.

Aidan sat on a long bench and watched the sun slowly rise in the distance. "If you're willing to leave, I can send you somewhere comfortable after this comes to an end."

"What about my mom?"

In a deep voice, Aidan stated, "She had her hand in it, so she has to pay the price."

Justin sighed silently. "Aidan, I know she had previously done a lot of things she can't make up for, and I feel sorry for Leanna, but what can I do? She's my mother, and she did all that for me. During these twenty-plus years, I could feel her despair and sorrow, but with my condition, I can't even perform the most basic filial piety."

After withdrawing his gaze, Aidan promised, "I won't do anything to her. I just want her to get punished for what she did."

"If possible, I hope I can take on the punishment in her place, no matter what it is."

Aidan did not respond while Justin was gazing somewhere, pondering about something. It took him a while before saying, "Aidan, you can go ahead and do what you've planned. There's no need to care for my feelings because if they fall, I'll also finally be free." He sounded relieved in those last words.

It was as if he had been waiting for this moment for the longest time.

Aidan glanced at Justin and frowned.
