Chapter 360


    After that kiss, the iciness around Aidan’s frown had seemingly dissipated, and most of his anger


    faded. A mere smile tugged on his lips, and he stared at Leanna with his ck eyes.


    Yet, she red at him. “What are you looking at? Is this the first time you’ve seen a gorgeousdy?”


    Meanwhile, Freddie couldn’t take it anymore. He decided to take the responsibility as a friend and said


    imperatively, “L-Lady, you’re really gorgeous. You can do anything to me, but he’s married. It’s a little…


    immoral for you to do that.”


    When she heard that, she hummed and turned to look at Aidan. “You’re out here to y when you


    have a wife? You b*stard!”


    Speechless, Aidan turned around and looked at Freddie with a poker face. Then, thetter sighed while


    resting his arm on Aidan’s shoulder. “It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I just can’t fool myself.


    Even when I usually look like a yer, it’s undeniable that I have had the word ‘justice’ engraved in my


    bones since birth. I don’t care about the others, but I will never allow my friend to do things that will hurt


    his family in front of me!”


    “So, if you want to do anything, just do it to me. I’m willing to sacrifice myself.” As he said that, he even


    wiped his tears. “It’s what I’m supposed to do for the happiness of my friend’s family. I can help you as


    long as you repent. It’s never toote.”


    Leanna knew that there were no normal people among Aidan’s friends. There was Oscar, who always


    came up with wicked ideas, and now a yer, who looked like something was wrong with him.


    She didn’t want to waste her time here with them anymore, so she picked up her things and said,


    “Something hase up, and I need to leave now. You guys should enjoy yourselves.”


    Just as she was leaving, Freddie wanted to chase after her from behind, but Aidan stood up faster than


    him.


    When he saw that, he said angrily, “Did whatever I said just now sound like nonsense to you? How can


    you do this to your lovely wife?”


    Hearing that, Aidan turned around and gave him a look. “If you’re really bored, you should check your


    brain.”


    He strode out of the bar after saying that.


    Once they left, Jamie realized that it was gettingte already, so she ended the party.


    As Freddie was walking out, he called Oscar. “Is Aidan so wild now? Or does he not have a wife? Are


    you fooling me?”


    “What? Didn’t he go to cheer his wife up tonight?”


    “What? Cheer his wife up? I think he just used this as an excuse toe out and flirt with other girls.


    The worst thing is that he actually got the girl. I didn’t know that I’d lose to him after ten years of flirting.


    This shouldn’t be it!”


    When Oscar heard that, he scoffed. Idiot.


    Freddie continued, “This won’t do; I’m getting angrier the more I think about it. Do you have Aidan’s


    wife’s phone number? I’m going to tattle on him.”


    After a few seconds of silence, Oscar replied, “I do.”


    On the other hand, after Leanna left the ce, she stood by the roadside to get a cab. However, since


    there were too many people outside the bar, she needed to wait in a long line regardless if she used e-


    hailing services or called a cab.


    She then found a ce to sit and reached out her hand to massage her twitching temples.


    All of a sudden, Aidan’s voice resonated beside her. “You’re not even push yourself? Are you regretting


    it now?”


    Leanna turned her head, not wanting to be bothered by him.


    At this moment, Aidan sat beside her and opened a bottle of water before handing it to her. “You can at


    least give me a reason for being angry at me. Are you nning to ignore me in the future as well?”


    “Don’t you know everything? Do you still need me to tell you?”


    With his hand stretching toward hers on the bench, he said sluggishly, “If I knew, would I be so clueless


    now?”


    Hearing that, she scoffed and thought, This b*stard is really good at acting. She took over the bottle of


    water in his hand and took a few sips. Only after that, she said, “I went to Ms. Shaffer’s son-inw’s


    ce a few days ago.”


    He lifted his brows. “Really?”


    “You didn’t know?” she questioned him back.

    “You didn’t tell me. How would I know?”


    “I thought you’re a prophet.”


    After licking his lips unnoticeably, he asked, “Are you angry because of this?”


    “No,” she answered.


    “What else is it, then? Tell me all at once.”


    After a deep breath, she said, “Zayn’s sister came to look for me and told me some things.”


    “What things?” he asked.


    “She told me that the incident where I fell into the water in the Pearson Family Estate wasn’t an


    ident. She was the one who got someone to do it.” Leanna looked at the front aimlessly. “These


    days, there’s only one question in my mind. Did I do so many horrible things that karmanded on my


    two children? Otherwise, why would people n on not letting theme to this world even before


    they were born?”


    Hearing that, Aidan frowned a little. “You didn’t do anything horrible, and you’re not the reason for that


    to happen.”


    She then said calmly, “I tried everything I could think of to marry you at that time, and it made you hate


    me for three years. Is that not horrible enough?”


    “Why are you bringing this up again?” He pushed his tongue behind his teeth.


    “You’re the one who asked.”


    “It’s all history. Don’t think about it anymore.” He put his hand on her head and stroked it gently. “If you


    want a baby because of this, I can…”


    However, she cut him off. “Thanks, but no thanks. You’re right. I didn’t do anything horrible, but you did


    quite a lot.”


    At this moment, he had noeback for it.


    Leanna sighed. “After all, no father in this world would think of ways not to have his own child be born.


    You should bear this deadly sin yourself. Don’t pass this on to the next generation.”


    When Aidan heard that, he felt his temple twitching uncontrobly. He tried hard to suppress his anger


    and asked, “How much did you drink?”


    “Who’d keep track? I just kept drinking since I wasn’t happy,” she answered.


    He checked the time and said, “Don’t go back to the Crossley Residence tonight.”


    “No. I’m going back.”


    He didn’t n to waste time talking to her anymore, so he stood up and carried her in his arms before


    leaving.


    Meanwhile, she didn’t want to struggle as well. She just closed her eyes quietly in his arms.


    I’ve taunted him and even said things so cruelly, but this b*stard is still not telling me anything. Perhaps


    I’m really overthinking it.


    Just then, the phone in her pocket started ringing. When she took it out, she saw that it was a call from


    an unknown number, but she simply picked up the call. “Hello, who is this?”


    “Hi, I’m… a good Samaritan. It’s like this; your husband is drinking at the bar alone tonight. Actually, I


    think that it’s good spice for husband and wife to fight as long as you two don’t go overboard. Why not


    give him a call now and ask him to go home?”


    “You’ve got the wrong number. I don’t have a husband,” Leanna answered.


    On the other side of the phone, Freddie asked in confusion, “What? This is the number Oscar gave


    me.”


    After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked, “Did he kiss someone in the bar?”


    “Huh? Oh… Well, since you already know about it, I won’t hide it from you anymore. As a friend, I really


    despise what he’s done. What happened was that…”


    All of a sudden, a man’s voice cut him off mercilessly. “Freddie Sutton, what’s your problem?”
