Chapter 314

Aidan came out of the bathroom, still wearing Louis' clothes, and found Leanna cooking in the kitchen.

He walked over, hugged her waist from behind, and exhaled a warm breath beside her ear. "How did

you know I haven't had my dinner?"

"This isn't for you."

While she spoke, she twisted her body and tried to get out of his embrace to drop the cut vegetables

into the boiling pot.

Frowning, he asked, "Who's it for, then?"

"Myself."

"Didn't you say you were stuffed?"

"I'm hungry again."

Hearing that, he looked at her belly and asked thoughtfully, "Are you pregnant?"

Leanna was at a loss for words.

He must be crazy!

Then, she chased him out of the kitchen. "I don't have time to entertain you. You, sit outside."

When he got to the living room and sat down, the doorbell rang.

Leanna stuck her head out and ordered, "Check who it is"

Without raising his head, Aidan brushed off. "No need. It's probably just a salesman selling ketchup."

It seems like he hasn't given up.

Pouting, she knew she could not say anything with Aidan here because he would only throw sarcastic

remarks here and there. Hence, it was better to not open the door.

As expected, the doorbell only rang once and fell silent after that.

Soon, Leanna came out of the kitchen and placed a plate of food before him.

He looked and smiled mischievously. "Is this for me?"

"For the dog."

He was instantly speechless.

Later, she went into the kitchen and busied herself for a long while.

Once he was done eating, he placed his cutleries and plate into the dishwasher and saw Leanna rolling

some wraps. "Why did you make so much food?"

"For the do—"

Halfway through her words, she suddenly stopped. This time, she knew she wanted to eat them, so

she could not say they were for the dog.

His low voice sounded. "What?"

After a long while, she whispered, "Didn't you say you wanted to go on a date tomorrow? I-I'm

preparing some food."

Smiling, he raised his eyebrow and asked, "Is there anything you need me to help you with?"

"You…" Though she thought of saying that he better not help with anything and stay outside, she gave

him a potato instead. "Wash this."

There was no telling what might happen at the Crossleys and she wanted to have a nice date with him

before that.

With someone to help her, Leanna felt it was more effective, despite him being more of a troublemaker

than a helper. A while later, they finished all the food preparations and stored them in the fridge.

Just as she was about to start tidying the kitchen, Aidan urged her, "Go and take a bath. Leave the rest

to me."

Since he had already made such a request, she would not reject it naturally.

Yet, as soon as she stepped out of the kitchen, she heard the sound of broken plates behind her.

Closing her eyes, she tried to reassure herself. It's fine. He has never done such things before, so it's

good that he has the mindset and attitude to help.

She then went to her bedroom to get her pajamas. When she arrived at the bathroom door, she heard

the sound of two more plates breaking.

When that b*stard said he would tidy up the kitchen, did he mean breaking them one after another?

Taking a deep breath, she thought, Forget it. I'm going to move out anyway, and Zoe doesn't cook

much either, so these things will only be a burden. Fewer plates mean lesser things to wash.

The moment Leanna came out of the bathroom, the kitchen was almost cleaned… No, smashed up by

Aidan.

However, there was no sign of him in the living room.

After switching off all the lights, she went back into her bedroom.

Inside her bedroom, Aidan was already lying in bed, leaning against the headboard while flipping

through a magazine.

She could not help but pursed her lips. This b*stard lacks self-awareness.

When Aidan raised his eyes and met hers, he stated, "I have a limited edition set of utensils at home.

I'll get Jonathan to send them over tomorrow."

"No need. You can have them and break them on your own."

After saying that, she went to the desk, pulled out the chair, and took out a notebook.

Aidan closed the magazine. "Aren't you going to sleep?"

Without turning her head, Leanna replied, "I'm not tired. You should go ahead."

She clearly knew what that b*stard was thinking, so she would not fall into his trap so easily.

Her whole body felt sore even till now.

Pulling away the covers, he came up behind her and sat on the bed.

When she heard the commotion behind her, she was shocked and stammered, "You… Why are you

sitting here and not sleeping?"

"I'm waiting for you."

His blunt and fiery gaze made her uncomfortable, so she coughed and started spouting nonsense.

"Don't do that, just… A designer usually gets more inspired at night, so there might be a possibility that

I won't sleep the whole night."

Aidan asked, "Are you inspired now?"

"O-Of course!"

"Draw something, then."

As Leanna was lying to him, her mind instantly went blank and she did not have the slightest

inspiration. Since she had already said that, she could only draw a few lines on her sketch paper.

Very soon, she stopped.

Then, she put down her pen and turned around to look at him. "I can't draw with you watching."

Raising his gaze at her, he remained silent, but she could see the words 'I don't believe you' on his

face.

She touched her nose and closed the sketchbook. "Forget it. Let's sleep."

After lying down in bed, she immediately wrapped herself with the blanket.

Aidan turned off the lights, lay beside her, and pulled her into his arms.

Leanna braced her hands on his chest and rejected, "I don't want to!"

"Why?"

Seeing that the hard way was not working, she decided to do it the soft way and whispered, "Please,

I'm still sore."

In the darkness, a smile appeared on his face. "Where?"

"Everywhere!"

Aidan replied slowly, "You'll get used to it when you do it more."

That made Leanna speechless.

She kicked him under the covers and turned toward the window.

A few seconds later, the man approached her again, but this time, he only held her waist and did

nothing.

Leanna's eyes were wide open as she thought he was acting abnormally.

Not knowing how long it had been, she finally spoke, "President Pearson, can I ask you something?"

"Yes?"

"Where did you go tonight?"

The figure behind her fell silent.

Aidan did not answer her.

She continued, "It's fine if you don't wanna say anything. I'm just asking."

Just as she shut her eyes, Aidan said, "Surveying the malls."

Hearing that, she affirmed once before continuing, "Did you meet anyone?"

"No." He stopped briefly and answered, "But a kid ran into me."

Finally realizing the answer to her questions, she said, "No wonder I smell milk on your clothes. Wait,

there was another strange smell."

Aidan replied flatly, "His saliva got onto me too, so maybe that's what you smelled."

"..."

Then, Leanna really did lean in and sniffed him.

Now that she thought about it, her actions seemed irrational.

Aidan asked, "Are you sleeping or not?"

Leanna immediately replied, "Yes, I am!"
