I'm Sorry My Love Novel

was just about to take her words back when she heard Aidan’s emotionless voice. “So what if that’s

true?”

“What?” Leanna was shocked. What’s going on?

“You know what I mean, Leanna,” he uttered in a thick voice. She was silent for a moment before she

replied. “Liking someone doesn’t prove anything. Didn’t you say this in the past, President Pearson?”

“That’s true. However, I can give you the spot as Mrs. Pearson. No one can take that away from you,”

he uttered. “Even if that’s the case, I still can’t have the public know about my child, right?” Aidan

wasn’t done, but Leanna already had a clear answer in her mind. He claims to like me, but he wants

things to go back to how they were before we divorced. My guess is correct—he’s just used to having

me by his side. He’s used to me pampering him, and he’s used to having someone waiting for him

when he returns to the Castor Villa every day. Habits are such a scary thing.

“Well, can you answer this, President Pearson? What are you planning to do with the child in my

stomach? Will it survive? Can you be clear about this?” she asked.

He hesitated for a few moments before answering her question. “You can have the child, but you’ll

have to send it away.” She hadn’t expected this answer, so she froze for a moment before responding

to him. “That’s on condition that the Pearsons never find out about my pregnancy, right?”

“Yes.”

Leanna was quiet for a long while after that. “I know I might not be in a position to say such a thing,

Aidan, but…” Her voice was shaky as she spoke. “This isn’t just my child. Haven’t you ever considered

allowing the child to be peacefully born into this world?” she asked. His expression remained cold as

ever. “I told you about this. I don’t plan on having children for the next two years.” He had assumed that

she wouldn’t get pregnant as long as they took the necessary precautionary measures. However, he

hadn’t expected such an accident to occur. He didn’t want the child to end up like a rag doll that they

threw around after birth, so he figured that the best solution was to counter the root of the issue.

Leanna knew that there was no point in attempting to change Aidan’s mind after he had made a

decision. She sniffed before gazing at him with her bloodshot eyes. “Will… I get to see the baby after

sending it away?”

“No.”

“But…” she protested.

“You know you should’ve told me about your pregnancy the moment you found out about it, Leanna.

You shouldn’t have waited for me to find out about it on my own. Furthermore, you’re the one who

insists on having the child, so you’ll have to bear the responsibilities regardless of the outcome of this

matter,” he spoke in a bone-chilling tone. He voiced this matter as if it were just another unimportant

task he had to deal with.

He might show some occasional care toward her, but deep down, he was still heartless as ever. No one

could change that about him. He continued speaking when Leanna was silent for a short while. “I

promised that I would try my best to keep this a secret from the Pearsons. Also, Leanna, you should

remember that I’m your husband, not your enemy or some crazy beast. So, you need to stop having

your guard up against me,” he uttered.

“Ex-husband.” She corrected him. “You still think of me as your enemy, huh,” he said with a scoff. “Both

of us will suffer in that case,” he said. It was hard for her to fight back when he sounded like he was on

her side after putting the blame all on her. I don’t have the strength to argue anymore. He can say

whatever he wants to, she thought.

“Well, if that’s all you have to say, then I’ll go to bed now,” she said with a mirthless smile.

Then, without waiting for his response, she turned and entered her room. Her tummy no longer felt

bloated after their argument, so she went back to lie on her bed. Yet, her eyes were wide open—she

couldn’t sleep at all. She rested her palm on her belly as she could feel the little one moving around. It

seems like the commotion earlier woke it up. It’s flipping around in my belly.

Sometimes, Leanna could feel the baby’s arms fumbling in her belly. If she couldn’t find a way to leave

before the child was born, then Aidan would end up sending the child away, and she would never be

able to see her baby again. It wasn’t that Leanna was trying to go against Aidan after understanding his

side of the story. On the contrary, she was very concerned about this whole matter—that was why she

didn’t want the child to be associated with Aidan or anyone in the family.

She didn’t care about the feuds and grudges held between people in the Pearson Family, and she

couldn’t bring herself to fulfill all of Aidan’s wishes. She was just a regular mother who wanted her child

to come to this world safely. Nevertheless, it seemed like they’d gotten to a point where she had no

other choice.

What disappointed Leanna the most wasn’t the consequences she had to face after the Pearsons

found out about the child—what disappointed her the most was that b*stard’s callous attitude. Aidan

had never thought about the baby from the very start. It was almost as if he didn’t care about the baby’s

life. He was like an observer on the sidelines who made a few sarcastic remarks every now and then.
