I'm Sorry My Love Novel

saw two words on the bottle—folic acid. “Why is she eating this?” He pondered. “It is said that eating

this during pregnancy can effectively prevent neural tube defects in the fetus,” Jonathan replied

cautiously. At that moment, Aidan’s face sank as he clutched the bottle in his palm, shuddering.

Pregnant? Have she and Zayn made such progress already??

After three years, Leanna intends to marry into the Barnett Family using the same method! … Along

the way home, Leanna was feeling depressed. She pushed open the door when she arrived home.

“Baby, you’re back! Surprise!” Confetti was launched into the air as a man was holding a bouquet of

roses in front of her. Speechless she was when she saw that it was Anthony Lester. Similarly, he stared

back at her in silence. They were both looking at each other embarrassingly. “I’m sorry, I thought you

were Zoe.” He laughed awkwardly as he slowly put the roses in his hand away. “The magazine has

been quite busy recently,” Leanna said before adding, “So Zoe may not be able to return until later.”

“Ah… It’s my fault. I wanted to surprise her.” “It’s alright, I won’t tell her. She will be overjoyed to see the

surprise you have planned for her. I should get out of your way then.” “I think I’ll just forget it. If Zoe

knew about it, she will give me a lecture,” Anthony utter quietly.

“I just happen to have something to do. Please let Zoe know that I won’t be back tonight.” Leanna

chuckled. “Then, let me send you off.” “It’s alright. I’ll just hail a cab.” She left wisely after finishing their

brief talk. Anthony was Zoe’s boyfriend whom she had been dating since university. The couple had

always gotten along well. He was sent abroad by his company last year with the intention of staying for

at least two years, so it appeared that he had returned earlier than scheduled. There must be so much

to say and so much to do after not seeing each other for ages. It would be embarrassing for Leanna to

be their third wheel. Therefore, she found a nearby cafe and began browsing the rental listings.

Gradually, the sky had become darker. She stretched her neck and went in search of a restaurant.

When she was halfway through her meal, she received a call from Zoe.

“Nana, where are you?” “I’m eating out. Have you returned?” “Yes… That jerk, Anthony took me by

surprise. He nearly scared me to death! My fists were clenched tight because I thought a thief broke

in.” Although she complained, it was clear that her tone was pleasant. “Don’t give him a hard time. Let’s

celebrate tonight since he’s back,” Leanna proposed as she chuckled. “We’ve been dating for about

four or five years. We’re like an elderly couple. What is there to rejoice about? Nana, you should come

home and spend the night. I’ll send him to the hotel.” “Don’t worry, I’ll just stay out tonight.

Your girl doesn’t wanna be a third-wheel here…” “What are you talking about… Then you have to be

careful when you’re staying out by yourself. Send me the address of your hotel later,” Zoe said a little

shyly. “Okay. Go get busy.” After Zoe hung up, Anthony wrapped his arms around her waist and

worriedly asked, “She won’t come back, will she?” “Why didn’t you tell me when you came back? It’s so

embarrassing now,” she mumbled angrily while patting his arm. “I had no idea she lived with us at the

time. I wanted to give you a surprise. I would not have done it if I had known beforehand. Well, it’s all

my fault, baby. Don’t be mad.” She turned around and hugged him. “I don’t blame you, but I’m worried

about her staying outside alone.” “She’s a grown-up. There’s nothing to be concerned about. Now,

enough about her. You haven’t seen me in a long time. Don’t you miss me?” He started fiddling around

her body. “I was about to ask you. You mentioned that you will only return in at least two years.

Why are you back in less than a year?” A slight change of expression flashed across his face as he

tried to gloss it over with a laugh. “It’s because I miss you! I requested it several times to the company

before they finally agreed for me to return. You don’t know how much I suffered there alone.” It was

difficult for Zoe to notice the difference in his expression as the light in the living room was switched off

to produce a candle-lit scene. “Alright alright, I know you’ve suffered a lot. I will take good care of you in

the future,” she gently soothed. “Not the future. Do it now,” Anthony said eagerly as he kissed her lips.

All that remained in the living room was the flickering candlelight. … Leanna took a bath and lay on the

bed after checking in late at the hotel. She took a look at her balance and transferred Aidan every cent

she had excluding the money she saved for her rent and daily expenses.\

She also deleted all her Tweets about Aidan which were only visible to Daphne. What’s the point of

insulting him when I am played by him again after all? She then drank a cup of hot water before going

to bed. She wanted to take some folic acid but could not seem to find it anywhere in her bag.

Sitting on the bed with her bare strength, she felt her nerves twitching and hurting. After dropping by

several locations today, she had no idea where her medicine had gone. More importantly, Aidan’s office

was one of them. As such, she decided to try calling him after calming down for a while. After

unearthing Aidan’s phone number from the blacklist, she dialed it from the hotel’s landline but it took a

long while to connect. “President Pearson… It’s me.”
