Chapter 109 Your Tongue Will Be Cut Off

Once they were at the coffee shop, Georgina ordered a cup of Americano, then she turned and asked

Leanna, “Miss McK, what would you like to drink?

Leanna turned to the waiter and said, “I’d like to have a glass of milk. Thank you.”

After the waiter left, Georgina said with a smile on her face, “I didn’t expect you to be a non-coffee

drinker. I thought that designers like you who need inspiration would be more or less inseparable from

caffeine.”

“It’s not that I don’t like coffee. I’m only drinking milk because of my health.”

Leanna did not feel the need to bring up her pregnancy to someone she had just met, so she made up

a casual excuse.

“You’re right. You seem very fit. You probably don’t need it,” Georgina said.

Leanna smiled politely in response and initiated the topic, “Miss Crossley, tell me more about what your

sister likes. Then, I’ll send you a draft, and if you’re not satisfied with it, I’ll revise it.”

“This is actually a spontaneous gift, so there are no specific restrictions,” Georgina said. I believe with

Miss McK’s abilities, you can design it however you like. My sister really likes the ‘First Love’ series,

and that series holds a different meaning to her. She would be overjoyed if she knew that you designed

her wedding gift.

“You’re too kind. I’ll try and come up with something and send you the first draft of the ring within a

week. If Miss Crossley has any other requests, I’ll amend accordingly.”

“Then, it’s settled.” Georgina gave Leanna her email address and said, “You can just send the design

here.”

Leanna nodded lightly. “Okay.”

Then, Georgina got up. “I still have something to do. We’ll just conclude our talk today. I’ll be looking

forward to your draft, Miss McK.”

“Goodbye, Miss Crossley.”

After she left the coffee shop, Leana habitually wanted to take a taxi but suddenly remembered that

Aidan had arranged a driver for her, who was waiting nearby.

She took a deep breath. Then, just as she walked a few steps, Zoe called her. “How was it? Did you

seal the deal?”

“Yup. The design will be out in a week.”

This almost made Zoe applaud aloud. But, then, she paused for a moment before asking, “Nana, I just

agreed for you on my own accord. Are you angry at me?”

Leanna smiled when she heard this. “Why would I be angry about this money-making deal?”

Although she and Aidan had struck a deal about the money, she still had a child to raise in the future.

So, even if Zoe did not step in and agree for her, she would’ve taken the deal herself.

This was work, and there was no place to be nice regarding a job. Not to mention, she wouldn’t let a

customer slip away from her fingers just because of Queenie.

Zoe let out a sigh of relief once she heard Leanna’s reassurances. “Good. Did you see how Queenie’s

face turned white with anger just now? I think she must be vomiting blood right now. Just thinking about

it makes me happy.”

“Go back to work. I’m going to head home first. She didn’t give me any restrictions or a theme for me to

design. So, I don’t have a clue how I will go about it,” Leanna said.

Although there was no limit to designing these things, that was also the most challenging part.

Fortunately, she could garner inspiration from wedding themes.

“All right, all right. Once you’re done with this order, we’ll go out for lunch.”

After hanging up the phone, Leanna looked up and saw the driver nearby, waving at her and shouting,

“Madam, I’m here.”

She walked over and couldn’t help but whisper, “Next time…don’t call me Madam anymore. Aidan and I

divorced a long time ago.”

“Okay, M-m-m…”

Apart from ‘Madam’, the driver didn’t know how else to address her and stammered for a while before

keeping quiet. Then, Leanna sighed silently and said, “Let’s go.” At the end of the day, what did the

conflict between her and Aidan have to do with them? Once she was home, she locked herself in the

room and started to draw some prototypes. During this period, servants would come and ask her to eat,

only for her to reply, “Ah…I’m not hungry. Thank you.” She wasn’t hungry as she had a lot this

afternoon while looking for inspiration. …

When Aidan came back, it was already 10:00PM.

The servant greeted him and asked, “Would you like something to eat, sir?” He loosened his tie and

said faintly, “Ask her what she wants to eat. She’ll get up at midnight to look for food.” “Madam hasn’t

had dinner yet. She said that she wasn’t hungry,” the servant said. He looked up at the second floor,

and his well-defined eyebrows furrowed slightly at those words. In Leanna’s bedroom, no sooner had

she outlined the shape of the ring; she heard an impatient knock on the door. As she thought that it was

one of the staff urging her to eat, she called out, “Alice, don’t worry about me. I’ll go down and eat if I’m

hungry—” Before she could even finish talking, the door swung open. “Don’t you know you have to eat

on time?” Aidan’s cold voice sounded. She didn’t know what to say when she saw who it was. How

could someone who ate lunch at 1:00AM have the right to reprimand her? Despite that, she earnestly

answered, “I was occupied with work, and I’d forgotten to eat.” Aidan nudged at the paper bag next to

her and said, “It’s not like you ate anything less.”

“I’ve overeaten today. That’s why I’m not hungry for dinner.”

At this point, he couldn’t be bothered to talk to her any longer and said, “Be downstairs in five minutes.”

How dare this b*stard order her around?

In the end, Leanna put her brush down and dawdled out of the room.

When Alice saw them coming down, she brought out the hot food. “Madam, sir mentioned that you like

fish soup recently. This is the first time I’ve added fish mint into the soup. Try it.”

Aidan’s face was expressionless. “I’ve never said that.”

Once she heard that, she lightly tapped her lips and corrected, “Yes, yes, it had nothing to do with

President Pearson. I…guessed it.”

Leanna took a sip of the soup and smiled. “It’s delicious. Thank you, Alice.”

“Great, I’m glad that you like it. I’ll leave you to enjoy your meal. Call me if you need anything.”

After she drank the soup, she could feel a surge in appetite and finally felt hungry.

As she was halfway eating, she looked up and saw Aidan staring at her; his black eyes were quiet and

deep.

This made her skin prickle. Finally, she put her spoon down and asked, “Is there anything wrong,

President Pearson?”

Immediately he withdrew his gaze. “Nothing. Eat your food.”

Leanna felt that since he had called her down for dinner today, she would show some concern out of

courtesy. “Do you always come back this late?”

“Can you not sleep if I’m not home?”

She was caught off guard by what she heard.

She immediately choked on air, and it took her a while to calm herself down and answered, “You’re

funny, President Pearson.”

“Then, why do you care what time I come home?” Aidan snapped.

At this moment, Leanna felt that she had solid reasons to suspect that the real reason Aidan told her to

move back was to piss her off. And once she had passed on due to anger, he would’ve gotten what he

wanted.

After a while, he spoke again in a calm manner, “Didn’t anyone tell you not to talk when you eat?”

“The only thing that people told me was that if you’re too rude, you will get your tongue cut off when

you go to hell.

Aidan was rendered mute by her sharp retort.
