I'm Sorry My Love Novel

head. "No. It's just that something came up." "Where are you heading to? I will drop you off." "It is fine.

There's no need to trouble yourself. I can go there myself. You should go back into the hall." He let out

a smile at that. "It just so happens that I feel a little stuffy being in there, and I want to come out for a

stroll. Let me walk you to the exit." Leanna couldn't refuse anymore after hearing his words, so the two

walked outside together. Elijah spoke again after a while. "Leanna, if you're free tomorrow night, can I

invite you to dinner?" She thought about it, and feeling somewhat embarrassed to abruptly leave like

this today, she suggested, "I do have time, but let me buy you dinner instead. I am really sorry about

today." "Don't worry about it. You really don't have to take it to heart." "Alright, I will let Zoe know when I

get home. We will see you tomorrow." Leanna smiled at him. However, Elijah suddenly murmured,

"Leanna, I want it to be just the two of us tomorrow. Don't ask Zoe to come along." Upon hearing that,

Leanna was slightly startled and she froze. Meanwhile, Elijah observed her reaction and asked

tentatively, "Is that okay?" Just as she was unable to come up with a response, a cold male voice came

from behind them. "No." Hearing this, Elijah turned around, only to call out in surprise, "President

Pearson?" Aidan walked to Leanna and stood beside her, his eyes shifting to Elijah as he spoke. "She

has plans for tomorrow." "What plans do I have?" Leanna was the one who questioned. Seemingly

dissatisfied with her not going along with him, Aidan immediately pursed his lips and peered at her from

the corner of his eye. "Just know that you do because I said so," he muttered. She let out a forced

laugh at that. She then smiled at Elijah and said, "Sure. Let's do it." Elijah seemed surprised at first, but

he soon nodded. "I will come pick you up tomorrow, then." With a smile, she bid him farewell. "I am off.

I'll see you tomorrow." Leanna then turned around and started to march away after saying that. Aidan

was about to go after her when someone grabbed him by the arm. Upon being stopped, he sneered,

"Let go." "Can I ask what are you doing now, President Pearson?" Elijah asked. "It has got nothing to

do with you." "Why do you think so? I believe that you can tell I am pursuing Leanna. I can compete

fairly with you if you are also pursuing her, but please stop acting so overbearingly. I hope you show

her some respect, President Pearson." When Aidan heard that, he looked back at Elijah and chuckled

coldly. "Who told you that I am pursuing her?" "If you are not, can you give a good explanation for your

behavior?" Elijah asked in return. "Sure." Aidan then said slowly, "Let me remind you too that Leanna is

my wife, President Parker. Please stay away from her." A small voice interrupted them right at this

moment. "Ex-wife, you mean." When Aidan wordlessly looked over, Zoe immediately turned away and

looked at everything but him as she pretended that nothing happened. There was no way anyone could

break up the couple she had paired together! "So that is how it is." Elijah let out a chuckle, which

prompted Aidan to look at him again. "Will you still continue sticking around now that you know what

our relationship is, President Parker?" Elijah only commented, "I've heard that you have a wife whom

you don't treat like one. Could it be that you are regretting it after the divorce? In my opinion, the

person who is relentlessly sticking around is you, President Pearson." Aidan's expression gradually

started to darken as he looked at Elijah coldly. Elijah then continued, "I am truly grateful that you are

telling me this. I finally know what Leanna has had to go through in the past. In the future, I will treat her

way better than you did to make up for the grief she suffered in the past." After he finished speaking,

Elijah nodded slightly to Aidan, and turned to leave. Seeing this, Zoe hurried after the man. She was

worried she would be exterminated by Aidan if she continued to stay there. Jonathan soon came in

after the two of them left. "President Pearson," he reported. "Mrs. Pearson is heading that way." Aidan,

however, asked in a casual tone, "Do you also think that Leanna did nothing but suffer in the three

years she was married to me?" "Um..." Jonathan had a feeling that this was a question that didn't have

a right answer. But he knew that he might have to pay with his life if he somehow answered wrongly.

After he weighed it over the next few seconds, he gingerly answered, "President Pearson, I do think

you have some misunderstanding about Mrs. Pearson, but... it is not like you never cared for her."

"What are some examples of me showing her I care?" Jonathan kept quiet when nothing came to mind.

Aidan was never someone who uttered pleasant words. He might have improved a lot now, but

Jonathan had witnessed firsthand how many hurtful things had come out of Aidan's mouth in the past

three years. Not to mention what Aidan would say to Leanna when they were alone, the words

Jonathan had heard from Aidan would have been enough to warrant curses all the way back to his

ancestors. Noticing how quiet Jonathan had become after his question, Aidan clenched his jaw and

walked out of the place.
