Chapter 185 Way Too Temperamental Zoe was having a conversation with herself in her head about Aiden’s
attitude. All of a sudden,the door of the neighboring unit opened. Noticing this, she closed the door behind her
as fast as possible without even thinking.
Then, she looked at Daniel with a smile. He took a glance at the closed door, then looked at her again.
"I kinda heard a conversation going on at your unit earlier. Do you have a visitor?" Zoe tried to play dumb
about it.
"No. Maybe it was from the TV show Nana was watching. You must have mistaken it as a conversation." She
did not know if Daniel bought it or not.
When he was about to go back to his unit, he paused and looked at her again.
"Why are you standing here, then? Why don't you get in?"
"Ah..." she hurriedly answered, "Didn't you invite me to havethose soon-to-be expired canned foods with you?
I'm feeling kind of hungry right now. So, I'm hoping that I could still take up that offer now."
Daniel remained silent for a few seconds.
Zoe felt that she wasa total genius because she couldn't find anything wrong with this excuse. Before Daniel
could react, she was already standing right in front of him.
"I've never eaten canned foods before.
I believe that they must be really delicious for you to be so obsessed with them.
So, I'm very excited to try them out." Daniel put his hand on his mouth and coughed.
"Well..come in then." In the kitchen, he was standing in front of the refrigerator with its door opened.
He looked inside the fridge and felt a little panicked.
He thought to himself.
What a lousy excuse. After seeing him standing still over there for quite a long time, Zoe asked with concern,
"What's the matter? Do you needmy help?" Daniel then closed the refrigerator.
"I just finished the canned foods. Let's order takeout instead."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZoe blinked.
"Okay." Seeing her answer without hesitation, he picked up the phone.
"What do you want to eat?" "I'm fine with anything." Zoe was totally fine with being considered as
shameless by Daniel.
Since she could not really go back to Leanna's house now, she would rather stay at Daniel's than
waiting on thecold floor outside the house. After ordering takeout, Daniel passed Zoe a glass of water.
"Would you like to invite your friend over?" Zoe then answered, "She’s on diet now.
So, she won't be eating at night.
Let's just eat without her." He smiled gently and sat beside her without speaking.
Zoe was holding the glass andshe stared at him a couple of times.
Since Daniel and Elijah were friends to each other, she felt the need to prevent Daniel from finding out
that Aiden was here withLeanna now.
No matter what, she had to prevent that.
Otherwise, even if nothing really happened between Leanna and Aiden, Elijah might still have the
wrong idea about that.
Aware of her gaze, Daniel raised his head.
"What's wrong?" "N-Nothing." Zoe dropped her gaze and drank water from the glass slowly.
If she acted naturally, nothing would happen.
Indeed, after a while, Danielexcused himself and went to his study room.... In the living room of
Leanna's house.
Leanna was watching Aiden eating the take-out that he brought here with his typical poker face.
In her head, she was trying to figure out what her chance of success was if she triedto drag him out of
the house by herself. Well, it was almost impossible at all. After all, it was an undeniable fact that men
tend to have much stronger physical strength than women. To make it worse, the man she was facing
was a shameless b*stard. So, she had to give up on that thought. Leanna could not bear to stay there
for any longer as she felt suffocated by the vibe there. As she was about to get up to return to her
bedroom, a spoon reached her lips.
She instinctively leaned back and looked at Aiden with vigilance.
"What are you doing?" Aiden looked at the spoon and said briefly, "Eat it."
"I do not—"
"I'll leaveif you eat it." It was such a tempting and irresistible offer. After Leanna weighed the pros and
cons, she decided to compromise.
However, when she was about to reach for the spoon, Aiden said, "Open your mouth."
She refused firmly, "I can do it myself!"
Aiden didn't answer but stared at her with hisblack eyes. Leanna stayed silent. She turned her head
away from him.
"Fine, the deal's off. I don't want to eat anymore."
She thought to herself.
"Don't you try to threaten me." Aiden licked his thin lips.
"Do you want me to feed you with my mouth instead?"
Leanna frowned as she was disgusted by what Aiden justsaid.
"Are you crazy?" "Then, eat it now." Leanna looked at him unhappily while pursing her lips and
clenching herfists. Aiden stared at her with his deep black eyes for a few seconds, then suddenly
leaned forward. She felt panicked and hurriedly ate the food from the spoon. Seeing this, Aiden grinned
and continued to pick up the rest of the food from the container. Leanna gritted her teeth and could only
eat them one spoon after another. Throughout the entire process, they did not speak. The vibe was
getting weirder. However, Leanna's fury was somehow easily eased.
Then, she just stared at him in silence, which made it difficult for anyone to tell what she thought. After they
finished the food, Aiden pulled apiece of tissue from the box and wiped her mouth. His slender fingers lightly
stroked her lips with a touch of warmth. She was stunned.
When she looked up and tried to say something to stop him, her eyes merely met his pitch-black and calm
gaze instead.

She couldn't deny that he was actually hot,especially when he was being so gentle. This kind of tenderness
was what Leanna used to dream of having from him. However, at that point in time, he had always been so
mean to her. Leanna thought in her head.
Sometimes, the world just liked to mess with us.
The more you wish to get something, the harder it will be for you to get it.
But the moment you give up on that something, you'll just get it effortlessly and itwould be hard to get rid of it
even if you tried real hard. Aiden raised his brows slightly.
"Are you stunned by my appearance?" Hearing that, Leanna quickly retracted her thoughts, slapped away the
hand before her, and said coldly, "Can youplease leave now?" Aiden chuckled.
"You're so temperamental." Leanna stayed silent at that remark. He did not take her words seriously.
It could even be said that he didn't care about them at all.
Then, he slowly asked, "What do youwant to eat tomorrow? I will bring it for you." Staring at him, Leanna
asked thoughtfully, "May I know what you have been up to lately?" Aiden countered, "Is it not obvious
enough?" "Please make it clear, President Pearson." "After some thought, I decided to give you one last
chance." Leanna was speechless. She thought to herself in a sarcastic way.
Yeah, yeah.
I must really thank God for that chance. Leanna asked, "Didn't you say I have no more chances?" Aiden gave
a hum.
"So, it’s a rare opportunity.
You should cherish it." Leanna tried to lose herself, but she had had enough and could not stand itanymore.
When she was about to yell at him, he continued, "However, Oscar said that actions speaklouder than words.
So, I have to do something to prove that I'm giving you another chance."
Leanna twitched her lips and thought to herself.
"Oscar, right? I will remember him." "President Pearson, you know what? I think you really shouldn't be
listeningto others on this kind of matter.
You must follow your heart.
