Chapter 226

He met her gaze, cocked his eyebrow, and smiled. “Did you regret it?”

She looked away nervously. “R-Regret what?” she stammered.

“Refusing me.”

“No. You’re reading too much into it.”

He looked ahead again. “The look in your eyes tells me otherwise,” he said calmly.

Huh. She coughed and stopped talking. Don’t wanna say anything wrong. But I’m confused. “Why?
Why do you do this? I thought you ran out of patience with me.”

“And you believed that?”

Goddammit, what a pain. He’s more brazen than I thought. She pursed her lips and said, “I’m grateful
for what you did. I have to admit that I’m surprised and…” I’m moved. She didn’t say that out loud. A
pause later, she continued, “But it’s been six months since we got divorced, so—”

He interrupted, “Leanna, don’t you see it? I’m trying to woo you.”

I must be hearing things. “I beg your pardon?”

He turned around and leaned against the guardrail, his eyes on her. “I’ll make it up for the rest of the
lost anniversaries too.”

Leanna froze. She had no idea what to say at first, but a moment later, she answered, “President
Pearson, whatever you’re doing means nothing to me. You’re disturbing my quiet life.”



“Your quiet life? You mean dating Elijah?” He said, “He’s not as simple as he looks. Do you think he
could have founded Constellation in a few years all by himself?”

“None of my business. I don’t care.”

Aidan asked slowly, “Do you know why you don’t care about it?”

She took a deep breath. “It’s his private affair. I don’t have any reason to—”

“Because you don’t like him, so you won’t care no matter what he does.”

Leanna pursed her lips silently.

He continued, “There’s no quiet life if you be with someone you don’t like.”

“Wrong. My quiet life doesn’t involve him.” She looked at him in silence. “My quiet life involves you not
showing up.”

Aidan smiled. “Ask what you really want before saying anything.”

Dammit. He just keeps throwing out random stuff. Somewhere, somehow, it was no longer hard for him
to see through her. He could expose her lies every single time. “I made it clear to you, Presdient
Pearson. The problem isn’t about love or affection. It’s—”

“Not as complicated as you think. You say you were unhappy with the marriage, so I’m making it up to
you. Once you calm down and forgive me, then it’s all water under the bridge.”

She laughed. “Do you think it’s actually that simple?”

No, no it’s not. He whispered, “I’ll settle everything you’re worried about.”



“I know. I know you can get rid of Anna and even Sienna, but so what if you do? There are some things
you can never change.”

“And how would you know that?”

She refused to argue with him. “Elijah is still waiting for me. I need to go back.”

She turned around, and he held her wrist. “I’ll take you there.”

“No, thanks. Someone else can do—”

“I sent him on his merry way.”

Leanna clenched her fists. Damn it! He has no shame! “Still don’t want your help.” She flung his hand
away and headed into the darkness, but Leanna regretted her decision a moment later.

The path leading downhill was dark. There were no lights on the way, and her flashlight was too weak
to shine through the darkness. She could hear the rustle of leaves in the shadow. In normal times, it
would have been relaxing, but the rustle was terrifying in the dark.

She pulled her coat closer around her and hastened her pace while cursing Aidan silently. Damn him. I
should never have come here. Me and my stupid plan to expose him. Look what that has gotten me
into.

Fury welled up within her, and her pace quickened. Suddenly, the bush beside her rustled, and
something leaped into the air. She let out a gasp and took one step back only to fall into someone’s
embrace.

Aidan wrapped his arm around her waist and patted her back. He chuckled. “That was just a stray cat.
Nothing to be scared about.”



Leanna was already mad enough, and Aidan’s mockery made her snap. She stomped on his foot. “You
b*stard!”

He grunted but didn’t let her go. “What is it with you and stomping on my feet?”

“I would have punched you in the face if I could.” She shoved him away. “Now let me go.”

“Hey, you’re the one who came to me. That wasn’t my fault.”

She gnashed her teeth. “You tailed me just for this very moment.”

“This is the only path downhill. I wasn’t following you.”

“That would sound more convincing if you weren’t holding me.”

“I’m not a saint. I don’t reject a good gift.”

That’s it. She pinched his waist. They were married for three years, and she knew all his sensitive
spots.

He tightened his hold on her and growled dangerously, “I’ll do you right here, right now. Try me.”

“Oh, I know you’d do that. You’re an animal, after all.”

He pursed his lips for a moment and let her go in the end.

She sneered at him and kept on going downhill. A few minutes later, she ran into a few boulders
blocking out the only path downhill. These weren’t here when I came. She turned around. “Is this what
you did?”
