Love's Change of Heart

This time, the main reason why she was complaining about the job's quality was that she

had found herself a much more powerful support in Aidan, therefore, she was now in

possession of better resources. However, if these words were to leak, then her reputation

in this industry would be tarnished. It would have a huge adverse impact on her.

"Leanna, you're wicked!" She clenched her teeth.

The smiling Leanna responded, "I thought that you've realized this before. Have I ever

come across as someone who's as kind as Mother Teresa?"

"I finally understand why President Pearson's so disgusted by you! Your actions of plotting

behind one's back are indeed extremely malicious. You deserve to be abandoned!"

Meanwhile, the other woman only responded calmly, "I've got to remind you that you're

the one who started to plot behind my back. I was just giving you a taste of your own

medicine. Here's another reminder, you better not cross my path again from now on. You

do realize that I'm capable of forcing Aidan into marrying me, so it would be a piece of

cake for me to deal with you."

After she finished those ruthless words, she was about to turn around and leave with

flourish when she saw a strapping figure standing silently by the door. The person had a

cold look on his expressionless face.

Leanna was rendered speechless at that point.

Aidan pulled his thin lips into a sneer as he voiced out coldly, "Miss McKinney, you're so

amazingly capable. Shall I give you a round of applause?"

She paused for a moment before responding, "Well… That's not necessary."

I must be so darn unlucky! Why am I always caught red-handed by him whenever I deliver

my sharp words?! She had finally managed to shrug off the stereotypical impression he

had of her by going through the divorce process but in a blink of an eye, her efforts had

gone down the drain. Whatever! It doesn't matter even if he misunderstands me. We’re

divorced, so why should I care about that?

"President Pearson." Mia instantly switched to an aggrieved expression and the tears

welled up in her eyes as she bit her lips. "I'm not sure why Miss McKinney approached me

in such a confronting manner. I don't quite know in what way have I ever offended her.

Miss McKinney, if you're displeased with me in any way at all, then just tell me and I…"

As Mia spoke, the tears streamed down her face and she sniffled.

Aidan glanced at her from the side of his eyes and there was an indifferent look on his

face.

Meanwhile, Leanna looked at the despicable couple in front of her and she felt

goosebumps on her arms. She was just about to leave when she heard Aidan say, "I

clearly remember warning you not to come up with stupid schemes that are more see-

through than a glass."

As soon as Mia heard that, she stopped sniffling instantly and the tears magically stopped

while remaining stuck around her eyelashes.

At that point, Leanna couldn't help it and burst out into laughter. It looks like Aidan's

indeed a cold and unfeeling person. This guy is hopeless.

She paused for a moment as she tried hard to stifle her laughter before striding off, not

batting an eyelash at them. I'll just leave them to their own performance.

However, as she walked past Aidan, he grabbed hold of Leanna's wrist and shot a look at

Mia before uttering, "Get out."

Mia bit hard on her lip and nearly drew blood. She did not even get the chance to collect

her belongings as she fled the dressing room.

The room descended into silence as soon as the door was shut from the outside.

Leanna remained silent for a moment before exhaling loudly. "I wasn't targeting you with

the words I said earlier. I just meant…" That the two of you are rubbish!!!

However, he interrupted her and asked coldly, "Did you block my number?"

At that point, she remained silent.

He frowned. "Answer my question."

Perplexed by his current behavior, she tried to laugh off the tension after a moment of

silence. "Haha. President Pearson, you must be trying to joke around with me, huh? We're

divorced, so why should we keep each other's contact details? Did you think we would

need that so that we can make a toast at each other's funerals?"

He was rendered speechless by her words.

"Besides, you've blocked me on WhatsApp too. So, isn't that a clear indication that you

wish to sever all ties with me?"

He pursed his thin lips and thought, Every single message that she sent back then was to

ask for a divorce, so of course, I was annoyed!

"That's not what I meant."

She relented quite quickly. "Okay. I've misunderstood you, but this isn't a deterrent for us

to block each other since we've actually gotten a divorce anyway. We should sever all ties

and proceed with our own lives happily."

The impatient Aidan annoyingly replied, "You've mentioned the word 'divorce' repeatedly.

Is that the only thing that you care about?"

She paused and reminded him gently, "President Pearson, have you forgotten that we just

signed the divorce papers this morning? I still have the divorce papers in my bag."

The frown on his face deepened and his slender fingers twitched slightly. Gradually, he

released his grip on her hands.

Leanna lowered her eyes and glanced at her reddened wrist due to his tight grip. This

b*stard! Does he think that he's grabbing hold of a criminal? He exerted so much force!

"President Pearson, if you're done here, then I'll leave now…"

Calmly, he responded, "If you've regretted your decision, I can consider giving you another

chance."
