Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 189

Chapter 189 Looks Like President Pearson and Mrs. Pearson Get Along Well Leanna looked at Aidan with utmost sincerity. “After accompanying you to the dinner, could you—" "No." Her brows creased tightly.

"But I haven't even finished my question." Aidan coldly glanced at her.

"Leanna, we are not negotiating." "Does this mean I don't have a choice?” He responded nonchalantly, “Did I have a choice when you had me retrieve your brother’s report card, then?" She paused for a moment before inquiring, "Can we call it even after the dinner?" After that, he lifted his brow.

“We’ll see.

It's not like you only owe me once." An expressionless Leanna questioned, “Do you mean that you’re not going to let me off the hook regardless?" Noticing the coldness in her tone, he turned to look at her with displeasure.

"Leanna McKinney, you're so happy when Elijah came looking for you and yet, this is how you’re going to act in front of me? Why is it considered a hassle when it comes to me?" "President Pearson, honestly speaking, do you think that you can do better than Elijah?" she added before Aidan snapped, "Will you ask for my opinion before threatening me into doing something I'm reluctant to do?" "No." It was a downright answer without a moment of hesitation since making up excuses was the only way for him to see her as she had been avoiding him. Meanwhile, she was rendered speechless by how shameless he was behaving. Aidan rose to his feet.

“We’re running out of time.

We still gotta pick out an outfit.

Hurry up.”

There was only Leanna in the store today.

She sprang to her feet and headed to the office to grab her stuff.

Taking the lock from the front desk, she told the man indifferently, “President Pearson, could you please come out? I have to lock the door." "I'll be waiting for you outside." He was not worried about the possibility of her escaping as there was nowhere else she could run to. While locking the door, Leanna gnawed her teeth as she tried to rein back the urge to slaughter him.

Forget about torturing her at times, why would he request her to accompany him for a dinner? I’ll go! I should show my 'appreciation' by causing a ruckus during the dinner. After locking the door, she saw the man's car by the roadside and prepared to sprint her way in the midst of snow when an umbrella appeared on top of her head. Realizing her gaze, Aidan looked at her from the corner of his eyes.

"What are you looking at?" "You don't have to act all nice.” She snorted before wearing the hoodie and running into the snow.

Watching her course of action, he pursed his lips and followed suit. The dinner was set at 7.00PM and the sky had darkened when they arrived at the hotel.

The car halted and an employee opened the door. Right when she was about to alight from the car, a beautifully-carved hand stretched before her, prompting her to raise her head to gaze at the tall stature and his surreal features that were enhanced by the snowflakes dancing in the air. It was similar to the scene where Aidan offered his hand to her at the ship.

The memory formed a ripple in her tranquil heart. Leanna hesitated momentarily before shoving his hand and lifted the hem of her dress to alight from the car. While Aidan did not utter anything, Jonathan, who was standing behind them with an umbrella, averted his gaze to act as if nothing had happened. She felt someone wrapping his hand around her waist after taking a few steps forward, which caused her to frown.

"President Pearson—" "Even if you're forced to come here, we should act decently,” interrupted Aidan. She pursed her lips into a thin line and decided to make the final struggle by grumbling, "But I can't walk properly like this." As he gradually released her, she did not expect it to work.

When she heaved a silent sigh of relief, he slightly raised his arm at her and ordered, “Hold onto me.” In the end, she linked arms with him with pouted lips upon figuring that it was better than having him hold her waist.
