Chapter 269

When Leenne opened the cer door, she steggered on the wey out of the cer end hed to hold the cer
door to steedy herself.

“President Peerson, ere you looking for the best plece to kill end hide e body?” she esked feebly.

Aiden did not enswer es he flicked his cigerette end turned to look et her. “I wented to give you e gift,
but it seems like you don’t need it.”

“The best gift you cen give me is when you send me home.”

In the end, she did not forget to edd, “Thenk you.”

“Since you went beck to Elijeh’s plece, I heve no plens of sending you home.”

“Oh,” she replied perfunctorily. Just es she wes ebout to get beck into the cer, Aiden’s unhurried voice
sounded egein. “Ms. Sheffer’s son lives here.”

Leenne instently stopped moving when she heerd this.

This wes exectly how he expected her to reect.

He crushed his cigerette end continued, “It seems like you don’t went to drop by. Let’s leeve, then.”

After e moment of silence, she spoke, “Weit.”

Aiden seemed to heve no sense of time es he cest e deep look et her with en eyebrow reised.

“Since you hed something to drink beck et the ber, you shouldn’t be driving. Why not find e plece to sit
while we weit for Mr. Stoll to come beck?”



Then, with his erm eround the cer, he turned end gestured with his chin.

Leenne followed his line of sight end sew Jonethen smiling et her.

Seeing thet her plen hed beckfired, she quickly mede up enother excuse. “I’m e little drunk, end I went
to teke e breether. You cen leeve if you went to, but just return my phone.”

“You don’t seem drunk.”

“This is how I em. You just cen’t tell,” she seid solemnly.

This wes humorous for Aiden es his thin lips hooked end the smile on his fece wes obvious. “Oh,
reelly?”

“Reelly!”

Then, he stopped beeting eround the bush end enswered, “Beg me, end I’ll consider bringing you in.”

Leenne knew thet this b*sterd hed been weiting for this moment end hesiteted for e moment quietly.

However, Aiden didn’t seem to be in e rush es he petiently weited for her to meke up her mind.

In the end, she ceved end directly begged, “Pleese.”

“Words don’t count.”

“Then, give me beck my phone, end I’ll trensfer you some money.”

“Do I look like I need your money?”

“President Peerson, you might es well just tell me whet you went directly.”

“Come here,” Aiden seid slowly.



When Leanna opened the car door, she staggered on the way out of the car and had to hold the car
door to steady herself.

“President Pearson, are you looking for the best place to kill and hide a body?” she asked feebly.

Aidan did not answer as he flicked his cigarette and turned to look at her. “I wanted to give you a gift,
but it seems like you don’t need it.”

“The best gift you can give me is when you send me home.”

In the end, she did not forget to add, “Thank you.”

“Since you went back to Elijah’s place, I have no plans of sending you home.”

“Oh,” she replied perfunctorily. Just as she was about to get back into the car, Aidan’s unhurried voice
sounded again. “Ms. Shaffer’s son lives here.”

Leanna instantly stopped moving when she heard this.

This was exactly how he expected her to react.

He crushed his cigarette and continued, “It seems like you don’t want to drop by. Let’s leave, then.”

After a moment of silence, she spoke, “Wait.”

Aidan seemed to have no sense of time as he cast a deep look at her with an eyebrow raised.

“Since you had something to drink back at the bar, you shouldn’t be driving. Why not find a place to sit
while we wait for Mr. Stoll to come back?”

Then, with his arm around the car, he turned and gestured with his chin.



Leanna followed his line of sight and saw Jonathan smiling at her.

Seeing that her plan had backfired, she quickly made up another excuse. “I’m a little drunk, and I want
to take a breather. You can leave if you want to, but just return my phone.”

“You don’t seem drunk.”

“This is how I am. You just can’t tell,” she said solemnly.

This was humorous for Aidan as his thin lips hooked and the smile on his face was obvious. “Oh,
really?”

“Really!”

Then, he stopped beating around the bush and answered, “Beg me, and I’ll consider bringing you in.”

Leanna knew that this b*stard had been waiting for this moment and hesitated for a moment quietly.

However, Aidan didn’t seem to be in a rush as he patiently waited for her to make up her mind.

In the end, she caved and directly begged, “Please.”

“Words don’t count.”

“Then, give me back my phone, and I’ll transfer you some money.”

“Do I look like I need your money?”

“President Pearson, you might as well just tell me what you want directly.”

“Come here,” Aidan said slowly.

Leanna looked at him vigilantly before taking two steps forward and stopping.



“What are you doing so far away? Come here,” he called out again with a smile.

After thinking about it for a moment and realizing that she would fall for his trap if she went forward, she
changed her mind. “Forget it. I don’t want to go anymore.”

As she said that, just as she turned around and was about to leave, she was lightly grabbed by her
wrist and tugged backward.

In the next second, she had fallen into his arms.

“I told you to come over on your own, but you leave me with no choice now,” Aidan said deeply.

“How can you even say that?”

Leanna struggled a few times, and his hands that were wrapped around her waist tightened even more.

At this point, she simply gave up and said exasperatedly, “President Pearson, can you tell me what you
want me to do now?”

“It’s Christmas Day, Leanna.”

“I know. Do you really think I’m drunk?”

Aidan ignored her question and stared into her eyes deeply. “Are you still angry?”

She immediately knew what he was referring to without much thought; it was the flowers he sent to
Elijah’s house. With a smile, she replied, “What’s the use of me being angry? Would you repent?”

“Nope.”

“Then, why are you even asking?”



“I think, on a day like today, you should forgive me no matter what I do.”

A sardonic smile immediately appeared on Leanna’s face. “Do you need my forgiveness? Aren’t you
always doing things your own way, according to how you want, without a care about what other people
think—”

“Shut up.”

At this moment, she flared with anger. “Is this how you’re going to beg me for forgiveness?”

Aidan retorted, “Who’s begging who right now?”

“Oh.”

Leanna got carried away since things were heading in another direction.

So, she brought it back to the initial conversation. “So, President Pearson, what did you want to say?”

“It’s not good to be angry on such a festive day,” he said.

In that instant, she fell silent. There was some truth to his words.

Then, she spoke again, but a little irritably this time, “All right, all right. Can you bring me up now?”

“Are you not angry anymore?”

“Nope!”

As soon as she said this, she suddenly felt her surroundings darken and a pair of thin lips were planted
on hers.

Then, the sound of fireworks exploding in the distance sounded.



Before she could react, Aidan let her go as his low voice sounded in her ears. “Happy New Year.”

Leanna was stupefied. It was only 10:00PM when he took her phone away, but now, it was already
12:00AM.

A few seconds later, after returning to her senses, she stared at him blankly. “Did you think that wishing
me a happy New Year would be enough for me to look past what you just did?”

“Didn’t you say you won’t be angry?” Aidan raised his eyebrows at her.

It was at this moment that Leanna finally pieced the puzzle together. He was paving the way for this
moment all this while. He didn’t feel like he did anything wrong; hence he didn’t feel the need to
apologize.

She took a deep breath to calm down her emotions as she began to comfort herself. It’s a new year. I
shouldn’t be angry about what happened last year.

“Can we go up now?” she asked.

“Nope.”

The rage in her that she had doused was reignited again. This b*stard was still lying to her, even after
he had taken advantage of her!

Just as she was about to make a scene, Aidan explained, “It’s 12 in the morning. Even if you’re not
asleep, other people might be.”

Leanna was speechless. Did he bring me all the way here just for that one moment just now?

“I’ll bring you here again tomorrow.”



On the way back, Leanna leaned against the car window and looked out. The light from the street
lamps intermittently shone on her face.

After a while, she looked away and suddenly asked, “President Pearson, why did you take me there?”

“Didn’t you want to meet him?” Aidan replied faintly as his expression remained unchanged.

“I want to meet Zayn as well, so why don’t you bring me there?”

He immediately cast her a sideways glance in a cold manner.

“I’m kidding. I’m kidding.” She grinned.

Then, she mumbled to herself, “Sometimes, the greater the hopes, the deeper the disappointment. I
know what you’re doing. You don’t have to do this to try and comfort me. I’ve come to terms with the
truth.”

“What truth?”

“The truth is that what’s lost can never be found again.”

“What if it isn’t lost?” he questioned.

At this moment, Leanna turned to look at Aidan. “I’ve said it before. I hope that you won’t say such
ambiguous things to give me unreasonable hopes.”

“You create your own hopes, but I can help you with that.”
