Love's Change of Heart

Leanna looked up at him as if he were a pervert. "What are you doing?"

Raising his eyebrows, he took the empty glass from her hand and poured water into it. "Nothing. Do

you want some more?"

"No, I'm full now," she said.

With that, Aidan put down the glass water jug and finished the remaining water.

She ignored him and went to look for her clothes.

Aidan followed behind her. "Your clothes are washed, and they aren't dry yet. I've asked Jonathan to

prepare them. He will bring them over shortly."

Turning around, she then found her phone on the couch. She plugged it in and waited for it to turn on.

After a moment of contemplation, she looked at him and said, "Aidan, I have something to tell you."

He sat down next to her. "Hmm?"

However, she didn't know how to begin when the words were about to come out of her mouth.

The situation was too complicated, and she still couldn't sort it out.

After a while, Leanna finally spoke up. "About the child… I left him with Lachlan. They may have a way

to cure him. Lachlan told me that it wasn't him who was behind all that happened in Highside and that

someone was framing him. I… I don't know whether I should believe him or not, but the little guy did

show some improvement under their treatment."

As she spoke, she lowered her head. Her voice became muffled as she continued again, "I have no

other choice, so I can only…"

Seeing that, Aidan hugged her and gently rubbed her head as he said in a low voice, "I already know

everything. It's not your fault, so you don't have to blame yourself."

"When did you find out?" she asked.

"Last night."

After leaving Lachlan's private clubhouse, he received a call from Freddie Sutton.

He had also sent someone to investigate and found that there were similar cases in Jamesdon two

years ago, and the medical team responsible for the treatment was also under Lachlan's control.

When he sent Leanna to the hospital, he received the report and data on the nutrient injections found in

Sienna's room that were meant to be destroyed two years ago.

All of these indicated that someone intentionally brought him to Jamesdon and incidentally stirred up

his conflict with Lachlan.

"Did he say anything else?" Aidan asked.

Leanna fell silent for a moment before continuing, "He said that all of these are related to the events

from twenty years ago, but you have to investigate it yourself."

"Did he bully you?"

"No… but can you please stop touching me?"

Aidan was rendered speechless, not knowing what to reply.

After that, he slowly withdrew his hand that was placed on her thigh.

Getting out of his embrace, Leanna immediately took a pillow and covered her lap.

At this moment, the doorbell rang. It was Jonathan who had arrived.

"No, I'm full now," she said.

With that, Aidan put down the glass water jug and finished the remaining water.

As Aidan approached the door, he only left a small gap when he opened the door. After taking the

items from Jonathan, he asked, "Where are the clothes?"

"Clothes?" Jonathan looked confused. However, he quickly reacted upon seeing Aidan's emotionless

gaze. "Ah, right… The clothes. I've been occupied. They're not ready yet, but I'll get them for you now."

"Hurry up," Aidan urged. Then, he closed the door, brought the food box over, and placed it in front of

Leanna. "You have to wait for a while for the clothes. Let's eat first."

At first, Leanna didn't have much appetite to eat. However, after the food box was opened, the aroma

of the food wafted over. At once, she felt her stomach start to growl in hunger.

After taking the cutlery handed over by Aidan, she bent over to take the food box.

Aidan, who was sitting opposite, paused slightly as he caught a glimpse of the charming scenery

beneath her shirt collar.

Seeing that he stopped there without moving, Leanna looked up in confusion. When she realized

where he was looking, she quickly sat up, grabbed a pillow, and threw it at him.

Aidan effortlessly caught the pillow and said innocently, "Be reasonable, okay? It's not like I intended to

look anyway. And you're blaming me?"

"Pervert." She was irritated.

With a slight curve of his lips, he set the pillow aside and invited, "Let's eat."

When they had finished their lunch, it was already 2.30PM.

Looking at Aidan, Leanna asked, "What are your plans now?"

"Gain five pounds," he murmured as he met her gaze.

"Huh?" she replied with confusion.

"You've lost some weight recently, so let's feed you until you gain five pounds first," he explained

further.

At that, Leanna was completely speechless. What's wrong with him?

He continued again, "Seven or eight pounds are fine too. You have to eat more."

After hearing that, she couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Shut up!"

A smile appeared in Aidan's eyes. "The Woodleys' semi-annual family gathering will be held in a few

days. You're coming with me."

When she heard that, she frowned and asked, "It's their family gathering. Can we be there?"

"We won't know until we give it a shot," he replied calmly. "Since we are going to investigate what

happened twenty years ago, we must get into the Woodley Family. Otherwise, how can we find out?"

"Are you not going back to Highside?" she asked again.

"Why would I go back when all of you are here?" he retorted.

Since those people went through so much trouble to lure me here... Let's find out the truth.
