Chapter 245

Leanna didn't know when she fell asleep. When she woke up, she realized the sky was pitch black.

She sat up and wanted to move her tight neck to hear the sounds of it popping. Crack. Crack

She massaged her neck as she opened her office door and went out. "Louis, help me get the first aid

kit out. There's some ointment inside. I think I sprained my—"

Before she finished her sentence, she saw the man sitting on the couch.

Suddenly, not only did her neck hurt, her head started to ache.

Aidan slowly looked up at her. "You're awake?"

She asked him, "Why are you here, President Pearson?"

He looked at the gift on the table. "I saw that you liked the pictures from last time. So, I got it

photocopied. I'll let you have the original pictures."

"Thanks, but no thanks."

Where did he see that she liked it?

Aidan got up and strolled over to her with his long legs. "I remembered someone once told me that if a

woman said she didn't want something, it means that she wanted it and that I should look for the

person who said those words."

Leanna snickered, "Could it be Mia or Georgina? I didn't say that."

He stopped in his tracks and looked at her gloomily.

She didn't want to entertain him and went to look for the ointment in the utility room.

However, she didn't expect the first aid kit to be placed on the highest rack. Now that she sprained her

neck, she couldn't reach it even when she tried to tip-toe.

She was about to grab a chair when a man's long arm was propped on the rack beside her while

another hand passed her head to easily retrieve the first aid kit.

Leanna turned around and backed into the rack.

B*stard, why you gotta get so close to grab it?

Aidan returned her stance with a raised eyebrow. "What are you scared of?"

"W-Who's scared?" Leanna stuttered, but did not want to argue with him further. She snatched the first

aid kit from his hands and returned to her office to lock the door in an attempt to prevent him from going

near her.

She took off the jacket and tilted her head before spraying some ointment with one hand pulling down

her collar. When she wanted to reach up and massage the area, she realized that she would tug on the

muscle when she moved her shoulders because of her sprained neck. So, massaging it didn't relieve

the pain and made it worse.

When she started to get frustrated, she heard something on the door. Knock. Knock. Then, Aidan's

voice came through the door. "Do you need help?"

"No!"

"If so, I'm leaving."

Will you leave already? Ugh.

After sulking alone for some time, Leanna placed the ointment back into the first aid kit and grabbed

her jacket with the thought of going to the hospital to check her neck.

However, she saw Aidan, who said he was going to leave, leaning against the wall and looking at her

when she opened the door.

She snapped at him. "Didn't you say you were leaving, President Pearson?"

He replied without missing a beat, "Didn't you ask me to stay?"

"When did I…." Leanna realized what he was hinting at. "So, you heard my inner thoughts again?"

"Yeah."

Aidan grabbed her wrist and led her into the office before he mentioned for her to sit. He took out the

ointment and sat at the edge of the table. "What else can you do besides scolding me? You can't even

handle a small thing like this."

She replied, "I'm the type that discovers my potential depending on the people I meet."

Scoffing, he tugged at the collar of her sweater, but she instinctively backed up.

He grabbed onto the chair's handle and easily pulled her in. "Don't be so dramatic. Keep your energy

for other things."

He remarked as he pulled on her collar again and sprayed the ointment on her neck after that.

The sudden cold made Leanna furrow her brow. When she wanted to say something, Aidan had

reached out his palm and gently rubbed her neck, leaving no questions to be asked.

After a while, he asked, "You went back today?"

Even though he didn't specify where it was, it was obvious what he was talking about.

Leanna pursed her lips, but didn't answer.

Then, Aidan continued softly, "I asked you before. If you really like the baby, we can secretly take it

away. But it's not possible now."

She didn't answer him.

"Well, there's one thing that we could do. I can work a little harder and give you another baby."

Leanna gritted her teeth. "Can you shut up?"

Aidan's hands stopped moving as his palm rested on her neck and he leaned in with his dark eyes. "I'm

serious. Why don't you consider it?"

"Haven't you said that you're not thinking of having a child for at least two years, President Pearson?"

she snickered. "You just want to sleep with me. You don't need to look for these high-sounding

excuses."

He licked his lips and backed up before spraying on more ointment and continuing to massage her

neck. "You're not letting me sleep with you anyways. There's no use for me to look for excuses."

Then, Leanna thought to herself. This b*stard finally admitted his dirty mind.

He told her in a low voice, "I just dealt with Anna. Now, the Pearson Family and the Zielinski Family are

looking for my weakness. Give me some time. I will give you a child."

After the talk about sleeping, Leanna just felt that he was saying anything to get to his aim.

It was just like what he told her before. He had said that he could give her a child two years later.

She impatiently slapped his hand away. "Even if I wanted a child, I don't need your charity."

As if he was the only man in the world.

As expected, his face hardened immediately. "Then, who are you going to have a baby with? Elijah?"

However, she was adamant about irking him. "As long as I don't need to wait for two years, anyone will

do."

Aidan narrowed his dark eyes as his hand on her neck unexpectedly moved down.

However, Leanna was quick to react as well as she backed up and hugged her chest before she yelled

at him, "You're a beast!"

Aidan snickered, "If I'm a beast, do you think you could still sit there and yell at me? You'll be on your

back crying now."

She felt that she would die from irritation if she said one more word to him.

Then, she picked up the jacket he threw to the side and stormed out, but took a deep breath after two

steps. "Are you leaving? I'm going to lock up."

He slowly stood up, placed the ointment in his hands down and strolled out of the office.

Looking down at his wristwatch, he told her, "I'm hungry. Let's go eat."

"I'm not hungry. You may help yourself, President Pearson."

However, her stomach grumbled as soon as she finished her sentence.

Then, she finally realized that she had not eaten anything since last night.
