I'm Sorry My Love Novel

A shy Zoe nodded. “I’ve been looking at wedding dresses and venues today, and I’m just waiting for his

proposal.” After saying that, it suddenly struck her that she seemed to have said something

inappropriate. Back when Leanna married that jerk, they only signed the registration papers without

any other formalities;there was not even an exchange of wedding rings. However, Leanna didn’t have

much reaction to that and merely chuckled as she said, “At that time when you’re getting married, I’ll

design all your jewelry for you.

” Throwing herself at her, Zoe hugged her tightly. “My dear Nana, I love you so much!” “Alright, alright.

Go home quickly, or Anthony will be worried if he can’t find you at home.” “Okay, you take care, then.

Don’t forget to lock the doors properly before going to bed at night.” “Alright, be safe on your way

home.” After getting out of the hotel, Zoe received a text from Anthony just a few seconds after she got

into the car. ‘I’m sorry, baby, but I can’t be home tonight to accompany you because of a business

dinner. Rest early for the night, alright?’ ‘Okay. Don’t drink too much.’ As Anthony had just returned

from abroad, there were many things at work that he needed to catch up on, and he also needed to

build up a lot of connections. Without giving it any more thoughts, Zoe set her cell phone aside and

drove home.

Even though she told him to drink less, she reckoned that it would be hard to control the intake over the

dinner table. So, she had to return home to prepare some hangover cure for him when he came home,

otherwise she could have stayed behind with Leanna tonight. … After Zoe was gone, Leanna went to

the pharmacy to buy folic acid and then some snacks from the grocery. On the way back to the hotel,

she passed by a street stall selling some snacks, and she bought some, too. When she arrived at the

hotel, she noticed a black Rolls-Royce parked outside the front door. It was that jerk’s car!

What was he doing here? She felt her goosebumps because he didn’t come all the way to ask her to

repay the money, right? Surely, she thought, they had already agreed for her to return the money via

installment! Furious, she marched forward and gave the back of the car a hard kick before running

away in a hurry. Meanwhile, Aidan, who was in the car, was speechless as his hand was halfway ready

to open the car door. Literally fleeing back to her own room, Leanna then locked the door carefully and

spent ten minutes to calm herself. When she was sure that Aidan didn’t give chase, only then did she

open up her snacks from the street stall. Who would have thought that the doorbell would ring after she

had taken a bite and greeted by the sound of a girl speaking, “Miss McKinney, someone has claimed

that he picked up something belonging to you and I would want to check with you.” Leanna observed

the hotel staff waiting outside her door through the peephole and debated whether or not to open it.

When the hotel staff didn’t hear a reply, she became worried that there could be an accident and

pressed the doorbell again.

“Miss McKinney, are you inside?” Letting out a sigh, Leanna pulled the door open. “I’m here.” Forget it,

I can’t hide even if I try, she thought. If Aidan was really here to ask for the money back, she couldn’t

hide from him forever. Handing her a small bag, the hotel staff asked, “Miss McKinney, please check if

this belongs to you.” Leanna opened the bag and took out a bottle with the words ‘folic acid’ written

clearly on it. After a couple of seconds, she muttered rather reluctantly, “It’s mine.” My guess was

wrong, she thought. Aidan isn’t here for the money but he purposely came here with this to humiliate

me. “Didn’t you say that it’s gastric pills last night?”

A stoic voice belonging to a man echoed from the side, and Leanna turned her head stiffly to the

source only to see Aidan leaning against the wall next to them. His dark eyes were cold and deep as

they stared at her emotionlessly, and she chuckled dryly a couple of times. The hotel staff glanced

between both of them. “Miss McKinney…” “We know each other. Thank you so much.” “Okay, I’m

going, then. If you need anything, just give a call to the receptionist, Miss McKinney.” In reply, Leanna

gave her a nod, and her heart sank to the bottom of her stomach. Lonely and powerless, she wondered

if she should tell him the truth. However, even without saying it, she already knew what the outcome

would be.

As the father of the child in her womb, Aidan had the right to decide the fate of it, but she was really

incredibly reluctant. Just when she had slipped into a huge struggle, Aidan frowned, brushed past her

and went into her room. “Get me a glass of water.” Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath, and when

she was out with a glass of water, he was already seated on the couch, and looking exhausted. After

she placed the glass on the coffee table in front of him, she asked cautiously, “President Pearson,

please speak your mind if you have anything to say.” Aidan picked up the glass, raised his head and

drank the water. Running his slender finger around the rim of the glass absent-mindedly, he spoke in

such a cold voice that there wasn’t a single shard of emotion, “Isn’t Zayn Barnett with you tonight?” A

confused Leanna asked, “Why should he be with me?” He smirked. “That’s true. He’s busy with

another woman and doesn’t have the time to be bothered about you.”

“What exactly are you trying to say, President Pearson?” Looking at her, he asked, “Leanna McKinney,

people from the Barnett Family went to visit the Pearson Family today. Do you know why?” “I don’t

know.” “I’ll tell you, then.” Getting up, he paced toward her step by step. “The person whom Zayn

Barnett wants to marry is Anna. Even if you’re pregnant with his child as you wish, it will only be an

illegitimate child. Don’t you know that it only makes others feel disgusted if you use the same trick

twice?”
