Chapter 103


    Chapter 103 I’m Begging You


    That evening, when Leanna was packing in her room, there was a soft knock on the door. “Leanna, are


    you asleep?”


    So, she got up and opened the door. “Ms. Fletcher.”


    When Naomi noticed the luggage in the room, she asked, “I heard Aidan say that he is going back


    tomorrow. Are you going back with him?”


    Leanna nodded and said, “I have some things to settle in Highside.”


    Naomi handed the bag in her hand once she heard this. “These are some things that I’ve recently


    knitted here. You can bring them with you. Maybe you’ll need it in the future.”


    “Thank you, Ms. Fletcher.” Leanna took the bag from Naomi. “Will you not go back to Highside in the


    future?”


    Naomi smiled lightly. “I won’t. There’s nothing for me to miss in that ce.”


    “What about Aidan…”


    “That’s up to him. If he has time, he wille back to visit me. It’s okay if he doesn’t. After all, I have


    never fulfilled my duty as his mother.”


    Leanna did not know what to say in response, so she could only stay silent and nod respectfully.


    After a few seconds, Naomi spoke again, “Leanna, I don’t know what happened between you and


    Aidan, and I don’t have the right toment, but…Aidan has a bad temper. He has always had


    problems expressing himself, but he is a soft-hearted man. I could tell from being around you two these


    few days. He actually cares about you. He just doesn’t know how to express it.”


    Even if she did not say this, Leanna knew that b*stard Aidan was only terrible because of the way he


    spoke. Although he was a good man, everything changed when he opened his mouth.


    Moreover, growing up in a household like the Pearsons, where everyone was always scheming against


    each other, he had long been ustomed to seeing the nasty side of others first and weighed his pros


    and cons with each interaction.


    Because of this, Leanna wanted to keep a distance from him as much as possible. She did not want to


    be involved in the conflict between him and the Pearsons.


    It was just that…


    She looked down at her belly; maybe this was why Aidan didn’t want this child to be born.


    But as a mother, adding to the fact that she had a miscarriage before, it was a rare blessing from God


    for her to be pregnant again. She would not deprive this child of the opportunity toe into this world.


    After a long time, Leanna replied, “Ms. Fletcher, Aidan, and I are notpatible in every way. The


    reason why we got married in the first ce was that—”


    Halfway through her words, she let out augh. “Whatever the case, the problem lies with me, and I


    should bear the consequences.”


    Naomi sighed but didn’t say anything else upon hearing Leanna’s words. Instead, she told Leanna to


    take care of herself when she was back and to call Naomi if anything happened before leaving.


    Leanna was about to close the door when she noticed Aidan standing nearby, looking at her coldly.


    She kept quiet for a moment.

    Then, the corners of her mouth twitched. “President Pearson.” Aidan had one hand in his pocket, and


    his tone was indifferent when he spoke, “Tell me, what consequences did you bear?” Isn’t the


    consequence of my suffering as your wife for three whole years, taking on your cynicism, sarcasm, and


    brutality? Nevertheless, she answered sincerely, “The divorce is the consequence I should bear.”


    “Leanna, if you think that with a divorce, everything is settled, then you’re being too simple-minded.” “I


    know that it can’t change the past and that I still have ulterior motives in your eyes, but this is the only


    thing I can do.” “If you really n to bear the consequences, you might as well think it through. For


    example, how would the Pearsons react when they find out about your pregnancy?” After he dropped


    such a bombshell, he turned and returned to his room. Leanna was stunned in ce. She suddenly


    realized that Aidan acquiesced that she could give birth to this child, but under the premise of…the


    Pearsons not finding out.


    This meant that he would not give her a second chance once the Pearsons discovered her pregnancy.


    After a long while, she finally regained her senses; her fingers were ice cold.


    As she sat on the bed, she looked out the window nkly.


    Could she really protect this child and give birth safely without being found out by the Pearson Family?


    After thinking about it, she felt she did not have much contact with the Pearson Family. Besides Anna,


    Leanna had almost zero interaction with the rest of the family. Although she had been in contact with


    Justin because of work, he couldn’t customize the jewelry for her mother upon request. Hence, as long


    as she avoided that lunatic, Anna, she should be fine. Leanna let out a sigh of relief before she


    continued to pack, cing the socks and clothes that Naomi had knitted for her into her luggage. Yet,


    despiteforting herself, she was still worried. When she noticed the pile of baby supplies in the


    room, she hesitated for a long time before leaving to knock on Aidan’s door and asked in a low voice,


    “President Pearson, are you asleep?” After two minutes, the door of the room opened. It seemed like


    he was woken up in his sleep, looking extremely impatient as he held back his temper and asked,


    “Leanna, I remember telling you. If it’s in the middle of the night—” Leanna interrupted in a low voice,


    “That time, you said not to call you in the middle of the night. You didn’t say I couldn’te to you in


    the middle of the night.”


    When Aidan heard this, he was rendered speechless by her daring.


    She ignored his attitude and continued, “President Pearson, I need to talk to you about the baby.”


    “What is it?”


    “I promise I will avoid the Pearsons wherever I go, but my…my ability is limited. So, I want to ask for


    your help. You must have a way to prevent them from finding out about my pregnancy.”


    He continued to look at her indifferently and asked, “What makes you think I will help you?”


    She pursed her lips and continued, “I assumed that since President Bateson bought so many baby


    products today that—”


    “Those are just random purchases. It can’t prove anything.”


    Leanna knew that he would say so.


    After she pondered the matter for a few seconds, she gently tugged at his sleeves. “I’m begging you.”


    Aidan’s deep ck eyes stared at her as his Adam’s apple bobbed up and town. Finally, he quickly


    turned his gaze away. “I don’t see your sincerity.”


    Leanna didn’t know what to say.


    Therefore, she pouted and retracted her hand. “Then, what do you want me to do?”


    “Move back to Castor Vi. There, I can keep you hidden from the Pearsons. But, if you live elsewhere


    and get discovered, it has nothing to do with me.”


    She did not expect this to be his request. Nheless, it was much better than the previous heartless


    conditions.


    And if she were to move to Castor Vi, it would be much safer for her to a certain extent.


    At that time, there should be no problem for her to frequent between thepany and home every day.


    When Aidan noticed her silence, he was immediately dissatisfied.


    This woman was still as stubborn as before.


    As soon as he was about to speak, Leanna whispered, “Okay, I’ll move back with you.”
