Chapter 307


    The instant Zoe heard something that definitely wasn’t an answer in any shape or form, and she hastily


    babbled, “I’m so sleepy now! Bye!” Then, she ended the call without hesitation.

    As Aidan heard the dial tone on the phone, which was music to his ears, he kissed the back of


    Leanna’s ear and whispered in a low and enchanting voice, “Are you done talking?”


    No, I’m not! You interrupted me!


    Before Leanna could convey her protests, he slowly moved his kisses from her ear to her neck. Each


    kiss he nted numbed yet enticed her.


    Leanna couldn’t help but ball her hands into fists as she desperately tried to control her breathing. “I-It’s


    gettingte. Shouldn’t you—”


    “Shouldn’t I… What?” Aidan bit her fair neck lightly.


    Leanna hissed in pain and rebuked, “Are you a dog?”


    “I can be whatever you want me to be.”


    Aidan sped her shoulder and turned her around. Then, he pressed her against the balcony railing,


    nibbled her lips, and coaxed, “Your friend is noting home tonight, I suppose. I can stay here,


    right?”


    “No—”


    As soon as Leanna opened her mouth, her lips were sealed with a kiss.


    Even though the b*stard Aidan did not say anything, she could hear his unspoken answer in her mind


    saying, “It’s not a question.”


    The cold night breeze was blowing, but Leanna did not feel the chill at all. Instead, she felt so hot, like


    she was wrapped in a big furnace. It was too warm, and she had difficulty breathing.


    Aidan caressed her face with hisrge palm and deepened the kiss.


    Before long, Leanna’s legs gave in, and she couldn’t stand.


    She ced her hands on Aidan’s chest and stepped back a little. She was panting slightly, and her


    eyes seemed teary. “T-That’s enough.”


    Aidan stared at her lush lips and kissed her again. “As you wish.”


    What? Did I say anything? Leanna frowned cluelessly.


    Aidan released her and loosened his tie with a hand. “Do you have something I can wear?”


    “No!” Leanna came back to her senses and snapped without hesitation as she red at him warily.


    “Okay, I don’t mind.”


    With that, he threw his tie at the couch and walked toward the bathroom.


    Leanna gritted her teeth in agitation. Finally, she sighed and went to her room to get Louis’ clothes.


    She went to the door of the bathroom with Louis’ clothes in her hand and knocked on the door. “Hey, I


    put the clothes at the door.”


    “Bring them in.”


    Leanna narrowed her eyes in irritation. She even had the urge to kill him right there and then for


    inconveniencing her. Nevertheless, thews of thisnd didn’t allow such a thing, so she suppressed


    the urge as she opened the door. She was nning to ce the clothes on the sink when she saw


    Aidan facing her sideways. He had unbuttoned the buttons of his shirt halfway, exposing his firm and


    defined chest muscle. Below the chest muscle were his barely concealed abs.


    Leanna instantly withdrew her gaze as she felt her


    She was about to escape when he blocked her way by cing one hand on the wall next to her. He


    looked at her and asked deeply, “Which of these are yours?”


    Leanna hastily pointed to a few items and snapped, “Don’t use my towel! There are disposable towels


    there. You can use that to wipe—”


    Aidan leaned closer and was only inches away from her. “Wipe… Where?”


    “…Wherever you like!”


    Leanna wanted to get out from under Aidan’s arm, but she didn’t expect him to turn sideways and nt


    his hand downwards suddenly. Hence, her miscalction cost her as she was stuck in his embrace.


    His lips curled into a slight smirk, and he wrapped his arms around her waist. “What’s the hurry? We


    have plenty of time tonight.”


    Leanna could feel her entire face down to her neck crimson at his suggestive words. She was so


    panicked that she stomped on his foot hard, which resulted in his pained groan.


    “This is a bad habit. You really should stop doing this.”


    “No way!”


    Then, Leanna scurried out of the bathroom while he wasn’t paying attention and quickly mmed the


    door shut. Oh, how she wished that she could lock him in there. Actually, now that she thought about it,


    wasn’t it an excellent idea for him to stay in the bathroom all night since he enjoyeding over so


    much?


    Despite that train of thought running in her mind, she puttered over to the kitchen to do the dishes. She


    figured that Aidan was genuinely hungry since he had finished the te of pasta.


    She did not know why he wanted toe to her house so spontaneously. Did he want to see people’s


    reactions when they were caught up in an awkward situation?


    After the dishes were all cleaned and ced on the rack, she sat on the couch in the living room and


    turned on the TV to cover up the sound of watering from the bathroom.


    After a while, her phone rang. When she checked her screen, she saw Elijah’s caller ID shing.


    As soon as Leanna answered the call, she could hear Elijah’s voice from the other end of the line, “I’m


    sorry for leaving so abruptly just now without saying goodbye.”


    “It’s okay.” After a pause, Leanna asked, “You have something to tell me, don’t you?”


    At the other end of the line, Elijah was silent but swallowed all the words he wanted to say to her.


    Finally, he chuckled. “Nothing. I have been busy the past few days, so when I was free, I went to meet


    you, that’s all.”


    Leanna pursed her lips lightly. She knew that something was up when she saw Elijah’s solemn face


    today, but since he didn’t want to tell her, she wouldn’t press on the matter.


    “Leanna.”


    “Yeah?”


    Elijah inhaled before saying, “Are you and Mr. Pearson—”


    “Yes,” Leanna said. “We are together.”


    Elijah had already guessed the answer, but he insisted on hearing the answer from her lips. Even


    though he was sad, he was also relieved. It was time for him to let go. “I wish you guys happiness,” he


    said with a faint smile.


    “Thank you.”


    Leanna didn’t know what else to say apart from these two words.


    Before she ended the call, he advised, “No matter what, you must be wary of Lloyd and Georgina.”


    Not long after the call ended, the bathroom door opened.


    Aidan walked out with wet hair. “Where’s the hairdryer? I didn’t see it.”


    Leanna withdrew her thoughts, ced her phone down, went into the bathroom, and took the hairdryer


    from the drawer under the sink. As she handed the hairdryer to him, she regarded him skeptically. “Did


    you really search for it?”


    “Of course.”


    Aidan took the hairdryer and plugged it in.


    The water droplets on the tip of his hair slid down smoothly to his jaw, his protruding Adam’s apple, and


    finally down his chest behind the cor.


    Leanna instinctively licked her lips and felt her throat dry at the scene before her.


    The low roar of the hairdryer sounded before she coulde up with an excuse to leave. Aidan


    casuallybed through his wet hair, and a few water droplets were sshed on Leanna’s face.


    She looked up and was about toin when he smiled beguilingly. “You can’t take your eyes off


    me, can you?”


    Aidan’s voice was deep and enchanting, as always. He looked a few years younger now that he wore


    Louis’ clothes. Nevertheless, there was a hint of youthful purity in his usual cold ck eyes, and even


    his prominent and solemn facial features softened.


    She was used to seeing him in a suit, so when he changed his fashion style, it seemed to have a more


    significant impact. His body exuded a dashing yet captivating aura even when he was merely standing


    there.
