Chapter 191


    Chapter 191 I Told You to Stop Moving Needless to say, Georgina''s words had made the situation


    ufortably awkward.


    Leanna tried to speak up several times,but could not think of what to say. Well, it seems that things are going


    my way.


    Seeing how allegedly chaotic Aidan''s private life is, perhaps William would take a step back to reconsider the


    cooperation.


    I guessthe universe favors me afterall, Leanna thought. Aidan narrowed his eyes but remained silent. At that


    moment, William looked at Georgina and asked, "May I ask that you are...?" "Hello.


    My name is Georgina Crossley.


    Nice to meet you!" She smiled and introduced herself. "Hello, Miss Crossley," he greeted and nodded slightly.


    "I won''t take up more of your time.


    I have something to handle, so I’ll leave first," Georgina responded. "Let''s go, Mr.Daniel," she added while


    motioning Daniel to leave. With that, Daniel took a brief nce at Leanna before nodding and walking away.


    "I presume she is Miss Crossley, the daughterof the Crossley Group," William stated after they had left. Aidan


    averted his gaze and asked, "Do you know her, Mr.Morris?"


    "No, I don''t. I''ve only heard about her," William responded with a smile. After leaving the restaurant and


    bidding goodbye to William, Leanna turned her head and could nothelp but nce at Aidan several


    times. He then met her gaze and his stern facial features were devoid of emotion. "Do you have


    anything to say?" he asked. Nervous, she licked her lips before working her thoughts.


    Since you’ve asked, I''ll go along. "Like I''ve always said, you shouldn''t treat rtionships like a


    gymmembership that you can just cancel and leave anytime you like.


    Look at you earlier like the cat''s got your tongue; you can''t even refute when your ex-fiancé is giving


    youa hard time." "Whom do you think I did that for?" Aidan queried. "How would I know?" she


    answered whileughing dryly. "Does Georgina visit you often?" After a moment of silence, Aidan


    asked again with the tip of his tongue pressing against his teeth. "I agree with Miss Crossley''s words


    earlier.


    Who are you to interfere with my private affairs now that we''re divorced—"


    Before she could finish her sentence, a pair of arms hugged herwaist tightly. She lunged forward and


    landed on his chest.


    At that moment, she instantly raised her hand to create a distance between two of their bodies.


    "President Pearson, what areyou doing?" Leanna fumed as she frowned. "I didn''t answer Georgina


    because her private affairs have nothing to do with me and I have no right to interfere," Aidan said


    solemnly before continuing, "But you are different." "Ever heard of equality? Why should I be any


    different?" "Simply because you''ve been my wife for three years... Or should I say, you''ve slept in my


    bed for three years? Are these two reasons enough? I can give you more if you think it''s not enough to


    make my case." His words rendered her speechless. She knew he would never say good things about


    her, therefore, she simply ignored him. However, not far away from them was Georgina who was


    standing at the restaurant''s entrance staring coldly at the two of them. This b*tch told me she wouldn''t


    get close to the Pearsons again! So, this is how you wanna y it, huh? You cunning b*tch, thought


    Georgina as she averted her gaze and stomped away. On the other hand, Leanna was still struggling


    to break free from Aidan''s hug. No matter how hard she tried, the b*stard seemed to have no intention


    of letting loose; instead, his hand tightened around her waist. At this point, the snow had stopped falling


    and the streetmps were glowing in orange, adding some warmth to the chilly winter day. "Don''t


    move," Aidan growled as he locked eyes with her. Why would she stop moving just because he said


    so? Leanna continued to struggle while saying, "I won''t move if you let me go." To that, he pursed his


    lips slightly and went silent. After a few more attempts, she became aware that something was off. No


    one knew about his biological reaction better than she did. "Are you insane? What... We''re on the


    streets now!" Leanna froze in ce while staring at him incredulously. "I told you to stop moving," Aidan


    grunted with his voice, which was a little hoarser than usual. Leanna kept her mouth shut. ssic


    Aidan, ssic bastard move.


    I cannot believe he just med it on me. After a short while, he cleared his throat before suppressing


    the rising heat in his body and let go of her.


    "Get in the car." Leanna did not dare to object any further; she opened the car door, bent down, and


    hopped inside.


    The journey on the way home wasfilled with both silence and a sense of mystery. Jonathan, who was in


    the front seat, felt the weird atmosphere and could not help but be intrigued. Now, why are they


    suddenly all flirty and shy with each other? Weren''t they just fighting like cats and dogs earlier?


    Feeling a little stuffy, Leanna rolled down the window and let the cold air in. After ventting the car,


    she hurriedly rolled up the window.


    Comfortable with the cold air, she exhaled and subconsciously turned her head over to Aidan, who was


    looking out the window with a calm and indifferent expression.


    Hiscold and chiseled jawline stood out in the dim light. While she was looking at him, her eyes could


    not stop themselves from going down.


    As her gaze was drawn to his thighs, she felt like her eyes had been stabbed.


    Retracting her gaze instantly, she was now uneasier than before. Aidan looked at her the next second


    as if he sensed something was off with her.


    "How longwill it take for us to arrive?" She pretended that there was nothing wrong and inquired.


    "There''s umted snow on the road, so I''ll be driving slower than usual.


    We''ll be there in about thirty minutes," Jonathan answered. "Okay, thanks." With that, she leaned


    against the seat with both hands on her knees and her back pencil-straight.


    After the briefconversation, the strange atmosphere that had been lingering in the car had finally dissipated.


    "Ignore Georgina if she approaches you again.


    Just let me know if she''s bothering you," he reminded Leanna.


    "Well, Miss Crossley is not bothering..." she said without hesitation.


    At that moment, she turned and gave a meaningful look tohim. In response, Aidan stared back at her coldly.


    Her lips immediately curled and she gave him a half-hearted smile. About half an hourter, the car arrived at


    the apartment downstairs. When Leanna was about to alight from the car, an epiphany suddenly struck her.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    She then turned around and said, "Please wait for a few moments, President Pearson.


    I''ve got something for you." As such, he raised his brows in interest with his mood clearly elevated. After


    receiving his affirmation, she quickly exited the car and went upstairs.


    Zoe,who was sitting on the couch at home watching TV, looked over when she heard the door open.


    "Why did youe back sote, Nana? Why are you dressed in this manner?" Leanna took off her high heels


    and coat before tyingher hair into a ponytail.


    Subsequently, she went into the room to get changed while exining, "I''ll tell youter, Zoe.


    Could you help me retrieve all the jewelry that Aidan sent me? I''ll return them all to him right now."


    "Thatb*stard''s downstairs??" she questioned.
