Chapter 622


    Chapter 622 What Qualifies Him


    After hanging up the phone, Leanna stood on the balcony for a long time.


    The rain outside was heavy, and no pedestrians were on the street in the distance. Only the


    streemps stood alone in the shower.


    After a while, she exhaled and walked to the kitchen. She took the te of sd and ced it on a


    tray, thereafter entering the bedroom.


    The bedroom was dark and the only sound was the rain hitting the windows.


    Leanna ced the tray on the coffee table and turned on a small wallmp. She walked to Aidan and


    saw that he had closed his eyes and was breathing evenly, seeming to be asleep.


    She reached out and touched his forehead, sensing that he didn’t have a fever.


    She couldn’t help but frown at that.


    Aidan has been sleeping here for so long. Why is he still so cold?


    Leanna reached into the nket to see if his hands were cold too.


    However, as soon as she touched his hand, her wrist was held by him.


    In an instant, Leanna was lying on the bed.


    Aidan was above her, holding her wrist with his big hand. His dark eyes were fixed on her and he


    murmured in a low voice, “Where are you touching?”


    Leanna was so shocked that she fell into silence.


    She turned her head and could feel his cold hand holding hers.


    She looked up at him andmented, “I made some sd. Have some.”


    Aidan’s fingers lightly stroked the veins on her wrist as he muttered, “I have no appetite.”


    “Even if you don’t have an appetite, you still need to eat. After eating, take some cold medicine and


    sleep. Otherwise, you will get sick… No, you’re already a little sick. Hurry up and take medicine.”


    “What’s wrong with being sick?” Leanna was about to speak, but then sick, no one will bother you and


    you can do whatever you like.”


    As he spoke, he let go of her wrist and sat on the edge of the bed.


    He exuded a great sense of indifference and estrangement.


    Leanna got off the bed and said, “It’s alright if you don’t want to see me. I’ll leave now. You didn’t want


    to marry me from the beginning and even when we were, you wouldn’te home. Even if you came


    home, you would still treat me coldly. I should have known how much you dislike me.”


    As she spoke, she took a deep breath and there was a slight tremble in her voice. “Don’t worry. I


    promise that the further I go, the better it will be for you. You can’t see me and you’ll be happy to be


    with those girls who like you. I know you’ve been waiting for this day for a long time.”


    Aidan fell silent.


    He then turned around and stopped her. “What are you talking about? This is not what I meant.”


    Leanna stood up for herself and muttered, “Isn’t it? You ask me to leave and won’t take the medicine


    when you’re sick. Isn’t that what you wanted?”


    Aidan fell silent for a while, knowing he was wrong. He stood up and sat on the couch, picking up the


    sd before him. “Forget what I said.”


    When Leanna saw that, her tears, which were about to flow, suddenly stopped.


    This trick worked pretty well.


    She was just an ordinary anti-pretentious person, after all.


    I will cure pretentiousness with pretentiousness.


    When Aidan finished most of the sd, Leanna poured


    Aidan leaned back on the couch and massaged his temples with his hand.


    Leanna put the water and medicine on the coffee table. “Headache?”


    Aidan nodded. “A little.”


    “You got wet in the rain and took a cold shower. It’s not surprising that you have a headache.”


    Although she said that, she still walked behind Aidan and gently massaged his temples.


    No one spoke again and the room became quiet once more.


    After a while, Leanna whispered, “I know everything now.”


    Aidan’s body stiffened slightly and his half-closed eyes opened.


    Leanna continued, “I know you’re not feeling good right now, but… it’s not your fault, and you don’t


    have to bear any consequences.”


    Aidan didn’t say anything.


    Leanna continued, “Waylen told me that Old Mr. Woodley’s people didn’t cause Justin’s car ident. It


    was…”


    “If they hadn’t reached Highside, the Crossley Family wouldn’t have been wouldn’t have had a chance


    to n that explosion.”


    Leanna paused and her movements stopped.


    Aidan said indifferently, “In addition to Justin’s car ident, your mother taking you on the run, being


    forced to marry Jethro McKinney, and even Jethro selling you to Patheon Club were all caused by me.”


    He paused and continued, “Now, do you still think it’s not my fault?”

    Leanna opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say. She didn’t answer for a while.


    Aidan closed his eyes, got up, and left.


    Someone like me doesn’t deserve anything, not family, friendship, or love. It’s all asking for too much. If


    Leanna had known this earlier and seen things clearly, she would have had the chance to make a


    different choice. There are many choices, like Zayn, Elijah, or Harry, who wants to help raise my son.


    Anyone but me. I do not deserve it. I am just a b*stard child who was manipted.


    “Stop right there!”


    As soon as Aidan walked to the doorway, Leanna’s voice rang out. “What nonsense are you spouting?


    Why is it so difficult for you to take your medicine? Youe up with all kinds of excuses. Are you a


    child? Do I have to coax you into taking it?”


    Aidan remained silent.


    He turned his head to look at her, his jaw slightly clenched and his thin lips pursed.


    Leanna sat on the couch and opened the pack of medicine. “Hurry up! The water is getting cold.”


    Aidan stood still for a few seconds before walking over with his long legs.


    Leanna ced the open capsule on his palm and squeezed his hand.


    Probably due to the bowl of sd he just had, his hands were not as cold as before.


    Leanna went to get some water and handed it to him. “What are you staring at? Just take it.”


    Aidan averted his gaze and tossed the medicine into his mouth, tilting his head back to drink the water.


    Leanna cleared the table and stood with the tray. “Okay, you can go to bed now.”


    Aidan held her back but remained silent.


    Leanna chuckled at that. “Do you want me to leave or not? I’ll go wash the dishes.”


    “Did you understand what I just said?”


    “I understood. I’m not stupid,” Leanna muttered. “But I think your thinking is wed. Okay… Who’s to


    me for Justin’s car ident? I’m not involved and won’t make any judgments. But when ites to


    the Crossley Family, why is it that you were the one who made a mistake?”


    “No—”


    Leanna interrupted him, “Would Leroy have given up his desire for the Crossley Group if it wasn’t for


    you? Even without that explosion, with his ambition and everyone’s trust in him, he would eventually


    have taken over the group. What does this have to do with you? Without you, Leroy would still do


    everything he did but without him, nothing would have happened. I don’t understand why you insist on


    taking the me for him.”
