Chapter 665 Plans Can’t Keep Up With Changes

In the studio, Leanna sat at her desk, propping her chin up with one hand and gazing absentmindedly

at the bright sunlight outside.

She didn't know how Aidan was doing or if the board meeting was going smoothly. As time passed, the

sun rose higher in the sky and the heat enveloped the entire city.

Just as Leanna stood up to make herself a cup of coffee, she heard a commotion outside the studio.

People were gathering and engaged in a heated discussion.

The young women in the studio were also drawn to the commotion and craned their necks to see what

was happening.

Leanna absentmindedly put down her water glass and, for some reason, walked out slowly.

As she passed through the bustling crowd, she saw a man in a white dress shirt and black trousers

leaning against a black sedan, holding a bouquet of fiery red roses in one hand. The sun's rays

highlighted his lazy and carefree expression.

Leanna was stunned at the sight.

Aidan met her gaze, his eyebrows slightly raised. He walked towards her and handed her the flowers,

saying, "May I have the honor of inviting this beautiful lady to lunch?"

There was an instant uproar around them as people speculated who this domineering bigshot was and

why he was chasing after his woman.

Leanna's face turned visibly red. It was hard to tell whether it was from the sun or embarrassment. She

quickly took the flowers and pulled Aidan toward the studio.

Aidan smiled, holding her hand and leading her forward. The young women in the studio lowered their

heads, pretending they hadn't seen anything.

Outside, the onlookers dispersed when they saw the duo leave.

Once inside the office, Leanna put the flowers down and turned to close the door. Before she could say

anything, Aidan wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed her against the door, lightly caressing

her chin. "My dear, you haven't answered my question yet."

Leanna blushed and pushed him away. "Stop fooling around."

At that, Aidan purred, "Then I'll take it as you've accepted."

Leanna couldn't help but smile and she looked up at him. "Didn't you say you wouldn't be back until

tonight?"

"I need to correct you. You asked what I wanted to eat tonight," Aidan murmured.

Leanna was speechless upon hearing that.

The b*stard knows how to play with words.

After a few seconds of silence, she asked, "So, the board meeting is over?"

Aidan brushed a few strands of hair behind her ear and murmured, "Everything is over."

Leanna said nothing. She only put her arms around his waist, thereafter placing her face on his chest.

Aidan lowered his gaze and silently chuckled. "What are you doing? Although I like it when you take

the initiative like this…"

Leanna interrupted him, "Nothing. Don't spout nonsense."

Aidan's gaze gradually softened and he lifted his arms to embrace her.

After a while, he repeated, "Everything is over."

Leanna closed her eyes. "I know."

With everything now over, all they had to do was wait for their child's recovery, and then they could be

together forever without all the trouble.

At 12.00PM, they went out to eat and came back. Leanna was designing on her desk while Aidan read

a book beside her.

The atmosphere was pleasant and quiet.

At 3.00PM, someone knocked on the office door.

A young girl from the studio poked her head in and whispered, "Miss McKinney, someone is looking for

President Pearson."

Leanna raised her head and looked at Aidan.

Meanwhile, Aidan continued to flip through his book, not responding. In the end, he lightly answered,

"I'm not seeing anyone."

At that, Leanna chimed in, "Just say he's busy and doesn't have time."

The young girl nodded and left.

Leanna lowered her head and continued to sketch.

If her guess was correct, it was someone from the Pearson Group.

After a while, the young girl knocked on the door again, "Miss McKinney, someone else is looking for

—"

Aidan said the same thing. "Not seeing anyone."

Throughout the afternoon, people came in waves, but all left empty-handed.

Later, the news that Aidan had left the Pearson Group became a trending topic on the Internet.

Someone had mentioned that Aidan was in Leanna's studio, which was why more and more people

came.

In addition to people from the Pearson Group, many journalists from business newspapers wanted to

interview Aidan and get first-hand information about him stepping down as president of the Pearson

Group.

However, no one managed to actually see Aidan.

Seeing the situation, Leanna knew that work couldn't continue today, so she ended the workday early

and gave everyone the rest of the day off.

The people who came later didn't even enter the studio, let alone see Aidan.

On the way back, Aidan muttered, "I'm sorry. It's all because of me."

Leanna, who was driving, only replied, "It's okay. Everyone has been busy lately. I've wanted to give

them a break, but I haven't found a suitable opportunity."

Aidan suddenly leaned closer and lowered his voice when he asked, "So that means it didn't delay your

work?"

Leanna didn't expect him to have such awareness, so she reassured him, "No, I can sketch my designs

anywhere. I'll take the rest back—"

"Well, since that's the case, let's go now."

Leanna was momentarily confused. "Go where?"

"Didn't you pick out a place already? We're going to Siebenna."

They reached a red light. Leanna stopped the car and turned to him out of habit. "Didn't we say we

would go this weekend?"

At that, Aidan answered, "Plans can't keep up with changes."

"I haven't prepared anything yet—"

"Go back and pack our things. I'll take care of the rest."

"But—"

"Once we leave, those people won't come to the studio and disturb your business."

Leanna thought about it and agreed with him. "Okay."

After returning home, Leanna started packing her things. While sorting out her wardrobe, she suddenly

saw the blue and white striped shirt she had bought for Aidan when he was on a business trip to

Malaxy.

After their divorce, she thought Aidan had thrown away that shirt. Presently, she smiled and packed the

shirt into her suitcase.

A moment later, Aidan asked, "Are you done?"

"Almost," she replied. "We don't have much time left, right?"

"It's okay. Take your time. We have all the time in the world." Aidan walked over to her and took the

clothes from her hand. "Is there anything else you need to bring?"

Leanna remembered a few more things and ran into the bedroom.

After packing up and just as they were about to leave the house, Leanna called Zoe and Charlotte to

tell them that she was going away and would be back in about a week.
