Chapter 84 How Can These Two Argue So Much?

Leanna subconsciously stood in front of Aidan. “Nothing, Ms. Fletcher. It’s just a friend. I…”

However, in her desperation, she completely forgot that Aidan was much taller than her, and she

couldn’t block him from sight at all. Naomi’s gaze was turned to her direction, but she was not looking

at her and was looking at the person behind her instead.

After a few seconds of silence, Leanna suddenly heard Aidan’s voice that carried a hint of coldness.

“I’m leaving.”

“Huh?” She was stumped. He didn’t even leave after what I said earlier. What’s with the sudden

change?

As Aidan took a few long strides forward, Naomi spoke again. “Aidan…”

Aidan turned a deaf ear to her words and strode away, while Leanna remained frozen in place, unable

to figure out what was going on. She noticed that Naomi’s expression was odd, but she didn’t have

time to think too much about it, and followed Aidan out.

Jonathan, who was waiting outside the house, was also extremely confused. Aidan had been fine when

he went inside, but his expression was murderous when he came out. How could these two argue so

much every day?

As soon as Aidan walked to the front of the car, Leanna followed out and shouted, “President Pearson!”

Aidan didn’t react at all as he opened the car door and went inside.

Jonathan looked at Leanna with a confused expression, which she returned. Clearly, neither of them

knew what was going on.

However, Aidan had already gotten into the car, so Jonathan didn’t dare to linger around and quickly

went to the driver’s seat. Hence, Leanna could only stand and watch the black Maybach disappear into

the distance.

After some time, Naomi’s slightly tired voice came from the door. “Leanna.”

Leanna retracted her gaze and walked toward her. “Ms. Fletcher.”

Naomi glanced at the direction where Aidan had left. “Ai… Is he your friend?”

“…Not at all.” Leanna asked in a small voice, “Ms. Fletcher, do you know him?”

As if deep in thought, Naomi looked a little distracted, and it took a few seconds for her to come to her

senses before she forced a weak smile. “He’s the president of the Pearson Group. I’ve seen him in

newspapers.”

If she didn’t say that, Leanna might not have thought that much of it, but… Now, she finally understood

why Naomi read the business newspaper every day. She thought about Naomi’s son who had left with

his father twenty years ago, as well as the illegitimate child that Justin told her about.

Leanna fell silent for a few moments before she said, “Ms. Fletcher, his pictures have never been

published in newspapers.”

Naomi still looked a little out of it. “Is… Is that so?”

“Ms. Fletcher… Aidan is your son, isn’t he?”

Naomi didn’t answer and lowered her gaze.

Leanna didn’t know how to comfort her all of a sudden. After all, the way Aidan had acted earlier was

really hurtful.

She hesitated for a while before saying, “Ms. Fletcher, he isn’t my friend. He’s my… ex-husband.”

Naomi jolted in surprise. She looked at her, then suddenly looked down at her slightly bulging stomach.

“……”

The two fell into silence.

Never did Leanna expect that she would meet Aidan’s biological mother after escaping to this place

thousands of miles away from Highside. It was too much of a coincidence.

Finally, Naomi massaged her temple and said, “It’s getting late. Go and get some rest.”

Clearly, she needed time to digest this information as well.

Leanna lay on the bed, finding it difficult to fall asleep. She made a few calls to Aidan, but all of them

were rejected before he finally blocked her number.

She was speechless. This b*stard has such a bad temper.

Then, she secretly called Jonathan, who said that Aidan looked extremely angry when he returned to

the hotel, adding that he had never seen him so angry.

Leanna could only hum in reply without saying anything else. After all, Aidan had already blocked her

number, so there was nothing she could do.

…

Early the next morning, Wendy came over with a basket of vegetables to peel.

As she took a seat at the stone table, she asked Naomi quietly, “Did Leanna tell you yet?”

Naomi wasn’t quite herself as she peeled the vegetables in front of her absent-mindedly. “Tell me

what?”

“Gosh, I really couldn’t tell that Leanna was a stubborn person before. She almost quarreled with that

developer during dinner last night. If Harry hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have believed it. I told you that it

was right to let Leanna go. She helped Underwood Lane gain some pride, and she really managed to

look imposing.”

Naomi fell silent.

Wendy began to gossip again as she continued, “After this incident, I’m starting to feel that Leanna and

Harry are a good match more and more. Harry is an earnest and good man who can’t refuse when

others ask him to do something. If he has Leanna by his side, he won’t suffer anymore. What do you

think? Why don’t we persuade Leanna again and set them up?”

Naomi’s smile was a little stiff as she declined, “I don’t think we should. I think… They’re not really a

good match.”

“Heh, look at you. Didn’t you think that Harry was a good person? What’s with the sudden change?”

“Harry is a good person, but Leanna doesn’t like him.”

Thinking that her words made sense, Wendy sighed. “It seems that Leanna still can’t forget about her

ex-husband. I don’t know what’s good about him. I mean, even if they were divorced, he shouldn’t

leave his wife and son alone for so long. What an irresponsible and unreliable person. If I see him, I’ll

definitely give him a good beating!”

Naomi didn’t answer.

After peeling the vegetables, Wendy asked, “Naomi, what happened to you today? Your face is so pale.

Did you not get a good rest last night?”

“A little.”

“Then I won’t bother you. You can go back to sleep.” Wendy lifted the basket before she leaned over

and whispered, “You must remember what I told you about setting up Harry and Leanna.”

Her words made Naomi even more troubled.

Not long after Wendy left, Leanna came downstairs.

With a hand on her forehead, Naomi said, “Your breakfast is in the kitchen.”

Leanna hummed in response as she turned back inside to take her breakfast. Taking a seat next to

Naomi, she asked softly, “Ms. Fletcher, do you feel ill?”

Naomi waved a hand. “Just my usual migraine.”

“Why don’t you get a checkup at the hospital? I’ll go with you.”

“It’s fine, I’ll feel better after taking some medicine.” Naomi looked at her. “Are you going out?”

Leanna paused for a moment before saying, “I… don’t think so.”

“All right, I’ll go inside and rest.” Naomi had just taken a few steps before she turned around and asked,

“What do you want for lunch?”

Leanna took a small bite of her bread. “I want some fish stew.”

“What a coincidence. Wendy brought me some fish last night. I’ll cook some for you later.”

“Thank you, Ms. Fletcher.”

Naomi’s lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she just sighed silently and went

back to her room.

After Leanna finished her breakfast, she felt that she couldn’t just freeload food off of Naomi, and after

sitting for a while, she gave Jonathan a call.

Jonathan informed her that Aidan hadn’t left his room since he went back last night, let alone eat. After

Leanna replied that she understood, she hung up.
