Chapter 46


    Chapter 46 Do You Want a Child? After the kiss ended, Anthony left abruptly. When Leanna wanted to


    keep her phone away, an indifferent voice came from behind her. “I didn’t know that you have an


    interest like this.” At a loss for words, Leanna decided not to exin anything to him and hurriedly left


    after chuckling stiffly. Just as Aidan was about to leave, he stepped on something, and he lowered his


    head to take a look.


    The brand of a certain maternal and child productpany was printed on the paper bag. Without


    flinching, he crouched down and picked up the bag. Meanwhile, after Leanna had left the hotel and


    wanted to give Zoe a call, it struck her that thetter was in a shoot now. So, she opened the chat


    window and typed in something, but every time, she would delete it. The longer time passed, the


    heavier her heart felt. Zoe and Anthony had been dating for several years, and their rtionship had


    always been very good.


    Anthony was a remarkable person and he did notck admirers, but no matter how women threw


    themselves at him, he only had Zoe in his eyes. At that time, there were even people joking that he was


    Zoe’s tail, following her wherever she went, but he was happy about it. However, everything had


    changed after he went abroad for only a year. Zoe is still waiting for his proposal. So, does love fade


    away so easily? Leanna wondered. In the end, she lowered her phone lifelessly, as she had no idea


    how she should break this news to Zoe. After taking a few steps, she suddenly realized that her hands


    felt a little empty.


    I should be carrying something in my hands… Suddenly, she looked down and saw that the baby’s


    clothing she had bought earlier were nowhere to be found. Rooted to the spot in stunned silence for a


    few seconds, she then slowly epted the fact that she had left the clothes in the hotel room earlier.


    Her head was about to explode. Finally, after one peaceful month, why were the unfortunate events


    happening one after another? She had totally lost the courage to return to look for her stuff, not to


    mention the mood to argue with Aidan. After she returned to her apartment, Leannaid in bed for a


    long time. When her emotions had subsided and calmed down, she got out of bed and started


    designing the ne for Sienna. In the evening, a servant from Castor Vi gave her a call.


    “Madam, Master said that he picked up something belonging to you. If you still need it, thene over


    to pick it up. Otherwise, he’ll dispose of it.” Leanna really wanted to say that she didn’t want them


    anymore, but since that jerk had deliberately informed her, it showed that he had some ideas on his


    mind again. If she didn’t go, it would just deepen his suspicions. In Castor Vi, the servant ced


    down the phone. “Master, Madam says that she’sing right now.” “Okay,” he muttered calmly. “You


    can take a rest now.” Nodding, the servant bowed slightly and left. Loosening his tie, Aidan then picked


    up the bag on the couch and went to the second floor. Half an hourter, Leanna pushed open the door


    of Castor Vi.


    The lights on the first floor were turned on, but there was no one around. She pursed her lips and could


    only go upstairs slowly. Standing outside the bedroom door, she extended her hand and knocked on it.


    “Are you in there, President Pearson?” When there was no reply, she suppressed her temper and


    raised her voice a little. “President Pearson, are you in?” A few secondster, a stoic voice of a man


    came from inside. “Come in.” Pushing the door open, she then took a few cautious steps inside while


    Aidan came out of the bathroom dressed in casual clothes with his hair wet. After peering at Leanna,


    he went straight to the couch, took a seat and pointed with his chin. “That’s your stuff.” In hurried steps,


    she scurried over and held the bag in her arms. “Thank you, President Pearson.


    I’ll be leaving now if there’s nothing else. Have an early rest. Good night.” “Hold it right there.” Stiffly,


    she froze in her tracks, and he lifted his gaze gently. “Aren’t you going to exin to me about the stuff


    in there?” Holding her body in a stiff position, Leanna told him the lie she had prepared earlier without


    even batting an eyelid. “Zoe is preparing for a baby, isn’t she? As the baby’s godmother, it’s… normal


    that I’m buying these things.” Reasonable, well-founded and consistent, her story was so convincing


    that she almost believed it herself. Chortling, Aidan asked, “Leanna McKinney, do you really think that


    I’m an idiot?” His words made her heart skip a few beats, and she forced the stered smile on her


    face. “Everything I said is true, and I can’t help it if you don’t believe it.”


    Aidan was quiet, while Leanna’s heart drummed against her chest. Unsure of how far his suspicions


    went, she didn’t dare to open her mouth rashly. However, judging from his expression, it didn’t seem


    like he was going to skin her alive. In contrast, there was an inexplicable sense of despondency and


    gloominess. Some time passed before he finally asked slowly, “Leanna, do you want a baby?” When


    she clearly knew that there was nothing going on between him and Mia and Mia wasn’t pregnant as


    well, Leanna still insisted to divorce him and even lied to him that she was pregnant in order to provoke


    him. Hence, Aidan thought that Leanna was most probably testing him at that time. She wanted a baby


    but he couldn’t give it to her, so she threw a tantrum with him and wanted a divorce because of this?


    The edge of her lips twitched, and Leanna’s heart, which had almost skipped out from her body, fell


    back to its ce. “I don’t have such a thought.” “Really?” Aidan asked nonchntly, as though implying


    that she shouldn’t deny it anymore because he could read her like a book. Dumbfounded, she then


    said, “Even if I want a child, it has nothing to do with you, and I don’t know why you had to ask me over


    to ask me about this now. However, I would like to remind you that you’re the one who said that you


    won’t allow any woman to be pregnant with your child, including me.” A knot appeared between his


    brows. “Did I really say that?” Speechless, Leanna thought, This *sshole really is shameless!


    Then, he said, “Even if I said it before, that’s the truth. You should know very well that I don’t n to


    have a child.” “Oh,” she muttered. What the hell has this got to do with me? Hearing the disappointment


    in her voice, he pursed his lips for a second and added, “At least not for the next two years, but I may


    consider it in the future.” He would never allow his child to be someone else’s puppet after being born,


    not to mention grow into a life that was already pre-nned. “You can discuss this with your future


    partner, President Pearson. There’s no need to tell it to me,” Leanna said calmly. Casting her a


    disgruntled look, Aidan once again felt that Leanna didn’t know what was better for her. He had already


    made things so clear and even took a step back, but why was she still being so difficult? Indeed, give


    this woman an inch and she will take a yard after having a taste of sweetness, he thought.


    Although Leanna didn’t really understand the dangerous look in Aidan’s eyes, she didn’t want to ask


    him about it either, and merely said with a smile, “I won’t disturb you then, President Pearson. Good—”


    Harshly, he broke her off. “Take all your things with you.” “Huh?” she blurted. What else do I have? “All


    the things in your wardrobe. Take all of them away.” “But those aren’t mine…” Basically, all the clothes,


    bags and shoes in the closet were delivered directly from the stores, and she had literally not used


    them before.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
