Chapter 610

Chapter 610 When Did You Treat Me Like a Person?

As Leanna was lost in thought, the man before her moved his eyelashes.

She attempted to retract her hand upon seeing this, only to have her wrist seized.

Aidan opened his eyes and fixed them on her with his pitch-black pupils. His voice was hoarse. "What

are you doing?"

She awkwardly averted her gaze. "Nothing. I'm getting up. You can keep talking."

As she spoke, she was pressed down by the man before she could even move.

"Aidan—"

Just as Leanna began to speak, Aidan lowered his head and bit her neck.

He didn't bite her hard, but he wasn't gentle, either.

A slight stinging sensation spread from her neck; it was somewhat itchy and numb.

Leanna's slender eyebrows furrowed, and she pounded his waist with her hand. "Are you a dog?"

Aidan's voice was hoarse. "You just found out today?"

His response rendered her speechless.

Taking advantage of her silence for a few seconds, the man had already slipped his hand into her

sleepwear, and his palm roamed upward.

Her body trembled wherever he touched her.



Leanna's breathing was uneven, and she was a little breathless. She pressed her hand against his

chest. "Stop…"

Honestly, given the current situation with Noah, she wasn't in the mood for this kind of thing with him.

Aidan knew what she was thinking, and he nibbled on her ear. "Do you think I can control myself in this

situation?"

"Then, endure it," she answered.

He pressed down and inched toward her. "You think I can endure it?"

Leanna's eyes were moist, and she grabbed his roaming hand. "Just stop touching!"

"I'm not the kind of man who can resist temptation," Aidan stated.

However, he didn't pursue the matter further and instead asked, "Honey, like yesterday?"

Leanna was stunned.

The man grabbed her hand and moved it downward, bit by bit, to take advantage of her.

Of course, Aidan was obviously just lying.

What he was doing now was far worse than yesterday, as it constantly tested the boundaries of danger.

By the time it was over, the sky had brightened; the sun had broken through the clouds.

Leanna felt some pain as she put on her underwear in the bathroom. Looking down at the bite marks

on her body, she was frustrated.

Looking unusually serious and composed, Aidan spoke before her, "You bit me yesterday, so it's even."




As she was about to say something, she was flustered, turning red and hot. "Are you even human?"

How can he say something so shameless with such a straight face? she thought.

"Since when did you treat me like a person?"

At that, Leanna had a headache.

This was a fact she couldn't refute.

After Aidan fastened the buttons of her underwear from behind, he rubbed her head. "I'll wait for you

outside."

"Get out!"

Just as Aidan stepped out of the bathroom, he received a call from Jonathan.

Jonathan spoke fearfully over the phone, "President Pearson, our people went to the villa to check.

Madam Fletcher… She's gone missing."

Aidan's face turned slightly cold as he held his phone, seemingly unsurprised.

Jonathan continued, "People stationed nearby said they saw no strangers coming in or out."

Obviously, it wasn't a stranger. It was the place where Oscar had sent Naomi before, and no one knew

the surrounding geography better than him.

"President Pearson, should we send people to look for her?" Jonathan inquired.

Aidan replied, "No need."

He wanted to see what they were planning to do.



Jonathan said, "By the way, President Pearson, I took the doctor to the child's house yesterday and

confirmed the information we received earlier."

Aidan responded with a faint grunt. "What about the laboratory?"

"Outsiders are not permitted in the laboratory due to strict access control. We can only wait outside. We

haven't found an opportunity because Waylen didn't leave the laboratory all day yesterday."

"I see."

After hanging up the phone, Aidan looked at the distant scenery. His facial features were stern; it was

unclear what he was thinking.

…

Two days later, Leanna sat on the balcony in a lounge chair, drawing a design plan.

Meanwhile, Aidan was sitting on the couch behind her, dealing with the documents sent from Highside.

Fortunately, the Pearsons could no longer afford to stir up trouble now, and Justin had taken Gordon to

Vinland for treatment.

Otherwise, Highside would probably be in turmoil by now.

Leanna looked at the distant sunset and stopped her hand movements as she felt slightly absent-

minded.

She had been calling Waylen these past two days to ask about Noah's condition.

However, Waylen had been too busy to talk, so she only exchanged a few brief words before hanging

up.



Despite her desire to see the little guy, Waylen forbade her.

She wondered when this kind of day would come to an end.

How can he say something so shameless with such a straight face? she thought.

Leanna sighed silently and lowered her head listlessly.

"What's wrong?"

Aidan's voice came from behind.

She regained her thoughts. "Nothing."

He sat next to her. "Do you want to go back to Highside?"

Leanna shook her head. "I'm just thinking about when Noah will get better."

"He'll be better today than yesterday."

Stunned, Leanna turned to look at him.

Aidan continued, "He'll be better tomorrow than he is today. And each day will be better than the last."

The woman looked at him without saying a word.

Holding her chin, he raised his eyebrows. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I just didn't expect to hear those words from you. It's quite surprising."

He was rendered speechless upon hearing her answer.



Smiling, Leanna lowered her head to continue drawing her design plan.

After a while, Aidan's phone rang.

Jonathan reported, "President Pearson, we've caught up with Waylen."

Aidan said, "I'm coming over now."

After hanging up, he told Leanna, "I'm going out. The hotel will deliver the dinner to you. So, don't go

out."

She nodded lightly. "Okay."

As Aidan left, the sunset outside also gradually disappeared.

The sky soon darkened.

Rubbing her sore eyes, Leanna put down her sketchbook and sat on the couch.

When she opened her phone, she discovered a missed call from Zoe.

Leanna called back. "Is there something wrong, Zoe?"

Zoe said, "Isn't it Saturday today? Louis came over, and I told him you and Aidan took the kid out to

play. But I think he doesn't believe it. Maybe you should give him a call."

"Okay, I got it."

Zoe added, "Nana, when are you guys coming back?"

Leanna sighed. "I don't know."



"It's okay, no rush. Anyway, Daniel is helping out at the studio these days. So, there isn't much going

on. You can take your time with things over there."

Leanna responded, "Zoe, I drew some new designs these past two days. I'll send them to you later."

"Okay. With the ones from before, there are already several styles. I'll arrange them for the new

collection tomorrow, and we've also found the models we need."

"Great. Thank you for your hard work."

Zoe was eating an orange and exclaimed, "There is no need to be courteous. I'm getting paid for this.

It's what I should do."

Leanna chuckled. "Okay. Rest well. I'll give Louis a call."
