Chapter 540

Leanna chatted with Zoe for quite a while. Then, all of a sudden, several knocks came from the door outside, cutting their conversation short.

Daniel asked, "Can I come in?"

Zoe gave a long sigh.

Leanna chuckled and turned toward the door. "Come on in."

It didn't take long before the bedroom door opened. Daniel walked over to the other side of the bed with a tray in his hands and placed the tray on the bedside table. The aroma of food instantly permeated the entire room.

He glanced toward Leanna. "Miss McKinney, please stay here for dinner. I've already prepared a portion for you."

Leanna turned down his offer. "There's no need for that. I'm going to meet Aidan later." Then, she stood up and turned toward Zoe. "Have a good rest. Call me if there's anything you need. I'll be leaving now."

Zoe nodded and reached out her hands toward Leanna with a reluctant expression.

Leanna leaned down and hugged Zoe. "I'll come and visit you again tomorrow."

"Forget it. President Pearson might get annoyed at me again. I'll visit you when I'm better."

She smiled. "He's not that bad."

Zoe released her grip on Leanna. "I won't see you off. Be careful on the way home."

"Okay."

Just as Leanna turned around to leave, Daniel called out to her, "Miss McKinney."

Leanna swiveled her head, facing him. "Is something the matter?"

Daniel didn't answer immediately. Instead, he directed his words at Zoe, "Zoe, you can go ahead and start eating. I'll see Miss McKinney off."
