Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 663

Chapter 663 Status Doesn’t Equal Ability

Aidan was going to leave, but Leanna held his hand. He turned around and noticed her staring at him, her eyes open. He held her hand. "After today, it's done."

"What would you like to have for dinner?"

Aidan smiled. "I like everything you make."

Leanna smiled, and she covered her face with her blanket, muttering, "You're lying again."

"When have I ever lied to you?"

Leanna let his hand go. "Yeah, yeah. Go."

Aidan took a few steps ahead and went back for a quick kiss. "Wait for me."

"I will…" Aidan left, and Leanna lay on her bed, trying to sleep, but she couldn't. She sat up and scratched her head, then she checked her phone to see what time it was. Seven thirty? A yawn escaped her lips, and she got out of bed.

Zoe and Charlotte came at 9.00AM. When they saw the feast of breakfast on the table, their jaws dropped. Zoe asked, "Is it a happy day today?"

Leanna came out of the kitchen. "Just thought I had a lot of food in the fridge, so I made these before they could go bad."

"But we can't finish all of these," said Charlotte.

"Just pick and choose what you want. I'll pack everything else and take them to the workshop." She put her stuff down and went back into the kitchen. "Oh, you girls might have to eat out tonight. Or just get delivery."

"Wh—"

Zoe elbowed Charlotte. "Sure. I'll take Charlotte to our college. There's a ton of food around it.


Leanna nodded. "Okay."

Once Leanna had gone into the kitchen, Zoe said, "Man, you're stupid. They're obviously trying to get some time alone. Give them some time, will you?"

Oh, oh, is that right? Charlotte quickly covered her mouth.

Zoe patted her arm. "We'll just stay out for a bit and make sure we don't bother them when we come home."

It wasn't even working hours yet, but everyone in Pearson Group was already present and accounted for, and the air was fraught with tension. Every pantry was filled with groups of employees talking about the company's future.

"Wonder what the BOD is trying to do this time. I did hear some rumors, and they're scaring me."

"About Mr. Pearson going to step down as president? I heard that too, but it's not possible, right?"

"Never say never. You know what's been happening lately. Mr. Pearson called all the branch managers back, and you've seen the changes to those bigger projects. I heard the share prices are—"

"Alright, that's about enough."

"But say Mr. Pearson really is stepping down, then who's taking over?"

"He has a brother. Maybe it's him?"

"But he's wheelchair-bound, and he's never worked on any company affairs either. I don't think he's the best guy for us."

"Not like we can call the shots."

"True. We can discuss all we want, but things might change after the meeting is done."

"Honestly, if Mr. Pearson does step down, the company's future might be uncertain."

"I don't want him to leave."

"Me neither."

At the same time, Aidan's assistant knocked on his door. "Sir, the board is all here."

Aidan grunted and looked at the time. "How much longer does Jonathan need?"

"Mr. Stoll has just disembarked. It will take him half an hour to arrive."

"I see. Prepare the files and take them to the conference hall. I'll be there in ten."

"Yes, sir."
