Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 84

Chapter 84 How Can These Two Argue So Much?

Leanna subconsciously stood in front of Aidan. “Nothing, Ms. Fletcher. It’s just a friend. I…”

However, in her desperation, she completely forgot that Aidan was much taller than her, and she couldn’t block him from sight at all. Naomi’s gaze was turned to her direction, but she was not looking at her and was looking at the person behind her instead.

After a few seconds of silence, Leanna suddenly heard Aidan’s voice that carried a hint of coldness. “I’m leaving.”

“Huh?” She was stumped. He didn’t even leave after what I said earlier. What’s with the sudden change?

As Aidan took a few long strides forward, Naomi spoke again. “Aidan…”

Aidan turned a deaf ear to her words and strode away, while Leanna remained frozen in place, unable to figure out what was going on. She noticed that Naomi’s expression was odd, but she didn’t have time to think too much about it, and followed Aidan out.

Jonathan, who was waiting outside the house, was also extremely confused. Aidan had been fine when he went inside, but his expression was murderous when he came out. How could these two argue so much every day?

As soon as Aidan walked to the front of the car, Leanna followed out and shouted, “President Pearson!”

Aidan didn’t react at all as he opened the car door and went inside.

Jonathan looked at Leanna with a confused expression, which she returned. Clearly, neither of them knew what was going on.

However, Aidan had already gotten into the car, so Jonathan didn’t dare to linger around and quickly went to the driver’s seat. Hence, Leanna could only stand and watch the black Maybach disappear into the distance.

After some time, Naomi’s slightly tired voice came from the door. “Leanna.”

Leanna retracted her gaze and walked toward her. “Ms. Fletcher.”

Naomi glanced at the direction where Aidan had left. “Ai… Is he your friend?”

“…Not at all.” Leanna asked in a small voice, “Ms. Fletcher, do you know him?”

As if deep in thought, Naomi looked a little distracted, and it took a few seconds for her to come to her senses before she forced a weak smile. “He’s the president of the Pearson Group. I’ve seen him in newspapers.”

If she didn’t say that, Leanna might not have thought that much of it, but… Now, she finally understood why Naomi read the business newspaper every day. She thought about Naomi’s son who had left with his father twenty years ago, as well as the illegitimate child that Justin told her about.

Leanna fell silent for a few moments before she said, “Ms. Fletcher, his pictures have never been published in newspapers.”

Naomi still looked a little out of it. “Is… Is that so?”

“Ms. Fletcher… Aidan is your son, isn’t he?”

Naomi didn’t answer and lowered her gaze.

Leanna didn’t know how to comfort her all of a sudden. After all, the way Aidan had acted earlier was really hurtful.

She hesitated for a while before saying, “Ms. Fletcher, he isn’t my friend. He’s my… ex-husband.”

Naomi jolted in surprise. She looked at her, then suddenly looked down at her slightly bulging stomach.

“……”

The two fell into silence.

Never did Leanna expect that she would meet Aidan’s biological mother after escaping to this place thousands of miles away from Highside. It was too much of a coincidence.

Finally, Naomi massaged her temple and said, “It’s getting late. Go and get some rest.”

Clearly, she needed time to digest this information as well.

Leanna lay on the bed, finding it difficult to fall asleep. She made a few calls to Aidan, but all of them were rejected before he finally blocked her number.

She was speechless. This b*stard has such a bad temper.
