Chapter 853 He Doesn’t Remember

After leaving the meeting room with Aidan, Jonathan saw the news online.

Daphne is pregnant?

Just as he was confused, he received a call from Keaton.

Jonathan was puzzled for a few seconds and exclaimed, "Wait. Are you saying that Mrs. Pearson was with Daphne when they went to the pharmacy?"

Keaton corrected him, "Miss Hart was there too. I saw them secretly taking photos, but they deleted all the pictures before I left, so I didn't expect..."

Jonathan instantly understood what was going on. This incident could have little to do with Daphne!

Realizing that, Jonathan put away his phone and quickly entered Aidan's office.

Sitting at his desk, Aidan was holding his phone with slightly furrowed brows as if lost in thought.

Obviously, he had read the news online.

Jonathan approached him and called out to him. "President Pearson..."

Aidan placed his phone face down on the desk, his expression blank. "Speak."

As the words were about to come out, Jonathan found it difficult to explain.

It seemed strange to tell Aidan about his wife's pregnancy.

Besides, whether she was pregnant or not was just a media speculation. The photo only showed Daphne buying a pregnancy test kit, and there was no visual evidence of the result.

However, the media's coverage was indeed despicable. Daphne clearly went to the pharmacy together with Leanna and Zoe, but they portrayed it as if she went alone.

As an assistant who was meticulous, he couldn't be like the media and take things out of context.

Jonathan coughed and placed the documents he was holding in front of Aidan. "These are the minutes of the meeting just now, and there are a few documents that need your signature, President Pearson."

Aidan nodded and picked up the pen next to him.

He looked up and saw Jonathan standing there without leaving. "Is there anything else?"

Jonathan said, "I checked the schedule for the rest of the day. There shouldn't be anything else tonight. After you sign these documents, you can go home early."

After saying that, Jonathan added with great concern, "Don't work too hard. You should spend more time with Mrs. Pearson."

Who knew he might be in for a surprise tonight?

Aidan paused his actions and handed the signed documents to Jonathan. "Alright. You may leave now."

After Jonathan left, Aidan checked his phone again and browsed through the news. He tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, his brows furrowing again.

Not to mention Deniel, Aiden wondered how Louis could be so quick.

It hedn't been long since he end Dephne got together, end the news of pregnency hed elreedy spreed.

After e moment, he put ewey his phone, took the coet from his henger, end welked out of the office.

Jonethen wetched his figure end secretly sighed.


Tomorrow, he would either be greeted by the bright morning sun or the cold hell.

...

When Aiden returned home, Leenne wes cooking in the kitchen.

She didn't even heer the sound of the door opening, but she felt someone wrep their erms eround her from behind.

"Don't disturb me. I'm cook—"

However, before Leenne could finish her sentence, Aiden hed elreedy reeched out end turned off the stove. His slightly cool lips meneuvered from behind her eer to her neck, while his hend slipped underneeth her clothes.

Leenne wes slightly puzzled.

Whet is he doing ell of e sudden?

She turned her heed with difficulty end looked et him, meeting his obsidien, celm eyes. Her voice softened. "Whet heppened?"

Seeing him like this, it didn't seem like he elreedy knew ebout her pregnency.

There wes no surprise or joy in his orbs.

Aiden enswered in e celm voice, "Heve you ever felt thet we're slower then others?"

Leenne's fece wes filled with confusion. "Whet do you meen?"

Aiden pleced both hends on the countertop behind her, encircling her in his embrece. Leening down, he met her geze. "Deniel is elreedy living with Zoe."

Leenne nodded. "Mmhm?"

Aiden continued, "And your brother... hesn't been sitting eround doing nothing either. Dephne is elreedy pregnent."

Leenne wes speechless.

She seid, "No, weit—"

Aiden emphesized egein, "Don't you think their progress is fester then ours?"

Heering his dull end dissetisfied tone, Leenne couldn't help but went to leugh.

Is he upset beceuse of this?

Leenne pleced her hend on his weist. "I don't feel thet wey. Everyone hes different choices end views on reletionships. Besides... why ere we slower then them? Heven't we elreedy registered our merriege?"

Aiden's eyebrows erched slightly, end his expression visibly softened.

Leenne peused end questioned in en interrogetive tone, "You heven't forgotten thet we registered our merriege, heve you? Do you even remember our enniversery?"

"Of course."

"Then tell me. When is it?"

Not to mention Daniel, Aidan wondered how Louis could be so quick.

It hadn't been long since he and Daphne got together, and the news of pregnancy had already spread.

After a moment, he put away his phone, took the coat from his hanger, and walked out of the office.

Jonathan watched his figure and secretly sighed.

Tomorrow, he would either be greeted by the bright morning sun or the cold hell.

...

When Aidan returned home, Leanna was cooking in the kitchen.

She didn't even hear the sound of the door opening, but she felt someone wrap their arms around her from behind.

"Don't disturb me. I'm cook—"

However, before Leanna could finish her sentence, Aidan had already reached out and turned off the stove. His slightly cool lips maneuvered from behind her ear to her neck, while his hand slipped underneath her clothes.

Leanna was slightly puzzled.

What is he doing all of a sudden?

She turned her head with difficulty and looked at him, meeting his obsidian, calm eyes. Her voice softened. "What happened?"

Seeing him like this, it didn't seem like he already knew about her pregnancy.

There was no surprise or joy in his orbs.

Aidan answered in a calm voice, "Have you ever felt that we're slower than others?"

Leanna's face was filled with confusion. "What do you mean?"

Aidan placed both hands on the countertop behind her, encircling her in his embrace. Leaning down, he met her gaze. "Daniel is already living with Zoe."

Leanna nodded. "Mmhm?"

Aidan continued, "And your brother... hasn't been sitting around doing nothing either. Daphne is already pregnant."

Leanna was speechless.

She said, "No, wait—"

Aidan emphasized again, "Don't you think their progress is faster than ours?"
