Chapter 854 Weird Person in a Strange ce


    After Leanna buttoned up his shirt, she patted his chest affectionately and was about to get out of bed


    when she was pinned down by him again.


    Aidan hovered above her and whispered, "Have you been to the hospital for a check-up?"


    Leanna replied, "Not yet, but I''ve used many pregnancy tests, and all of them showed the same


    result... I came homete today, so I''ll go to the hospital tomorrow."


    "I''ll apany you tomorrow," offered Aidan.


    Leanna''s lips curved into a smile. "Okay."


    Aidan leaned down and kissed her forehead gently. His voice was rarely gentle. "So, you did it on


    purpose?"


    Leanna hesitated, feeling like he was going to settle the score with her.


    Leanna forced a smile and tried to escape his embrace. "I''m not done with cooking yet, so—"


    However, Aidan didn''t n to let her go. He pulled her back and huffed a warm breath on her chest,


    clearly indicating his intentions.


    Leanna whispered, "The doctor said we can''t do it for the first three months..."


    Aidan''s low and hoarse voice sounded in her ear, "Let''s try a different way."


    Leanna had used her hands on him before, but as she was about topromise, she felt that


    something was off.


    "Aidan..."


    Aidan coaxed her gently. "I''ve checked. It''s safe this way."


    Leanna remained silent.


    He really didn''t lose out in this aspect and had made ns earlier on.


    Half an hourter, Aidan carried Leanna to the bathroom to take a shower. She felt a burning sensation


    on the inside of her thighs, but there were no injuries fortunately.


    Otherwise, she would''ve killed him.


    Sitting in the bathtub, she leaned against Aidan''s chest. "I''m a little hungry."


    Aidan kissed her shoulder and said, "I''ll have Jonathan bring some foodter."


    Then, he continued, "Starting tomorrow, Alice will take care of you."


    Leanna replied, "It''s fine. My pregnancy symptoms aren''t that severe this time. I can cook for myself."


    This ce was much smallerpared to Castor Vi. If Alice came over, it would be crowded and


    inconvenient.


    Aidan knew that she preferred living herepared to Castor Vi. She had friends around and it was


    lively.


    Although this ce was small, it felt more like home to her.


    Since he had been busy during this period and didn''t have much time to apany her, he didn''t


    suggest moving back.


    Leanna held his hand and fiddled with his visible knuckles. "Let''s wait for a while before deciding. If I


    can''t handle it myself, then I''ll ask her toe over."


    "Okay," Aidan agreed.


    Leanna turned her head to look at him and parted her lips as if wanting to say something, but she


    decided against it.


    Aidan asked, "What''s wrong?"


    Leanna leaned back against him again and pouted. "It''s nothing. It''s just… Daphne and Zoe said that if


    you saw the news online and found out that I''m the one who''s pregnant, your reaction would be


    priceless, but I think it''s not much different from usual."


    Upon hearing this, Aidan chuckled softly and lightly wrapped his arm around her waist. "Do you want to


    hear the truth?"


    "Yes," answered Leanna.


    She would decide whether to strangle him or not after hearing his reason.


    Aidan ced his chin on her shoulder and uttered in a soft voice, "For me, it''s not something to be


    happy about."


    Leanna took a deep breath, feeling like she wanted to strangle him already, but she still felt like giving


    him another chance to finish his sentence.


    Aidan continued in a calm tone, "I''ve seen you pregnant before, and I know how much you suffered


    because of it. I admit that I''ve caused some of the pain, but pregnancy itself is easy, and if I feel happy


    imagining you going through it again, wouldn''t that make me a jerk?"


    Leanna parted her lips but didn''t say a word.


    She didn''t expect that after Aidan found out she was pregnant, he would think in such a way.


    She thought it was because he couldn''t...


    In the end, she underestimated him.


    After a while, Leanna gently responded, "The process of being pregnant is quite ufortable, but I''m


    happy because I can feel a live human being growing inside me from a small pea to the size of an egg,


    and finally havingplete limbs. It''s a... very miraculous process."


    Then, she turned her head to look at him. "Honestly, I don''t actually feel much pain, so you don''t have


    to me yourself."


    Aidan stared at her with his dark eyes, and after a few seconds, he tilted his head and kissed her lips.


    Leanna''s neck was a little stiff from being twisted for too long, so she lightly tapped his chest. "Alright.


    It''s time we get out. I''m really hungry."


    Five minutester, Jonathan received a call from Aidan.


    In less than half an hour, he appeared at the door in a hurry.


    Aidan opened the door, and Jonathan immediately handed him the food, observing his expression.


    "What are you looking at?" Aidan questioned with a nk expression.


    Jonathan tentatively asked, "Should I congratte you or pretend that nothing happened?"


    Aidan replied nothing.


    Taking the paper bag, he was about to shut the door before a smile crept up his lips. "You can start


    preparing presents now."


    ...


    At the same time at Pearson Family Estate, John entered the garden to find Justin trimming the nts.


    He looked back and noticed that the path he came from was already covered with withered leaves,


    indicating that it hadn''t been cleaned or maintained for a long time.


    Strange enough, the nts in front of Justin seemed to be full of vitality.

    How strange. A strange person in a weird ce.


    Justin didn''t turn around. He simply continued with his work and casually started a conversation. "Did


    you read the news online today?"


    John paused for a moment. "Daphne is pregnant?"


    As he spoke, he walked over and sat on the stone bench beside Justin. "Daphne is no longer an artist


    under Pearson Group, so I didn''t expect you to still be interested in gossip like this. I saw that her


    studio released a statement not long ago, saying that it''s all baseless rumors from the media."


    Justin continued nonchntly, "How could it be true when they have no evidence?"


    John didn''t quite understand and looked at him without saying anything.


    Justin put down his scissors, turned his wheelchair, and met his gaze. "I''ve been busy with matters at


    New Coast recently that I forgot howfortable their lives are."


    John understood him this time. "What should we do?"


    Justin casually answered, "Find a way to bail out Theodore. We don''t need to worry about the rest."


    John nodded. "Okay."


    Bailing out Theodore was difficult but not impossible.


    However, Theodore wouldn''t be of much help. Aidan could send him back to prison with a flick of his


    finger.


    This problem was something he could think of, hence it wouldn''t go unnoticed by Justin as well.


    Justin looked into the distance, and a hint of amusement sounded in his cold tone. "I heard that


    Daphne''s design brand has been doing better recently. She even ns to move to a new studio."
