A frown appeared on Elijah’s face when he heard Leanna’s words. “Should we go to the hospital?” he
asked.
“No, no. It is just an old sickness. I will be fine after a short rest.”
“Are you sure you are alright?” He still couldn’t help being concerned even after she said that.
“Yes, I really am,” she replied with a big nod.
“Alright, then.” Elijah pursed his lips. “You have to tell me if you still feel unwell, though. We will make a
trip to the hospital.”
“Okay.”
He didn’t seem to have noticed anything odd due to the dim lighting at the audience’s seats.
Leanna only turned to look at Aidan with blazing eyes after Elijah looked away from her. She then
mouthed, “Let go!”
Aidan only pretended to not hear her as he looked at the stage.
Seeing this, she took a deep breath, raised her leg and, with all her might, stomped on his foot.
He finally had a taste of her wrath when her high-heeled shoe stepped on him.
Sure enough, she heard a low groan from the man beside her.
Even so, he continued to hold her hand without letting go.
Leanna suddenly felt enraged to see him being so shameless for the first time.
Just as she was about to bring her foot up a second time, Aidan quickly released her hand from his
grip.
Serves you right! she thought while scoffing.
She was no longer in the mood to watch the performance anymore after this absurd incident. She took
the chance when Daniel had gotten off the stage for an outfit change to turn her head and whisper, “I’m
sorry, Elijah. I have to leave now.”
Leanna swiftly stood up after saying that.
Seeing this, Elijah quickly stood up and went after her while offering, “Let me give you a ride.”
However, as he was passing by her seat, he unexpectedly noticed Aidan sitting in the seat that
originally belonged to Zoe. Aidan looked indifferent, and he had no expression whatsoever on his face.
Out of courtesy, Elijah gave him a greeting.
Aidan’s tongue darted out to lick his thin lower lip as he watched them leave one after another. He then
lowered his gaze to look at his palm that still had Leanna’s lingering warmth before he also got up.
Zoe was still sitting in her seat when her eyes flickered between the exit and the stage, and she finally
had no choice but to stomp outside to follow after them
“Are you still not feeling well, Leanna?” Elijah called out to Leanna to stop her when they were in the
corridor.
Her steps came to a stop before she turned around and shook her head. “No. It’s just that something
came up.”
“Where are you heading to? I will drop you off.”
“It is fine. There’s no need to trouble yourself. I can go there myself. You should go back into the hall.”
A frown appaarad on Elijah’s faca whan ha haard Laanna’s words. “Should wa go to tha hospital?” ha
askad.
“No, no. It is just an old sicknass. I will ba fina aftar a short rast.”
“Ara you sura you ara alright?” Ha still couldn’t halp baing concarnad avan aftar sha said that.
“Yas, I raally am,” sha rapliad with a big nod.
“Alright, than.” Elijah pursad his lips. “You hava to tall ma if you still faal unwall, though. Wa will maka a
trip to tha hospital.”
“Okay.”
Ha didn’t saam to hava noticad anything odd dua to tha dim lighting at tha audianca’s saats.
Laanna only turnad to look at Aidan with blazing ayas aftar Elijah lookad away from har. Sha than
mouthad, “Lat go!”
Aidan only pratandad to not haar har as ha lookad at tha staga.
Saaing this, sha took a daap braath, raisad har lag and, with all har might, stompad on his foot.
Ha finally had a tasta of har wrath whan har high-haalad shoa stappad on him.
Sura anough, sha haard a low groan from tha man basida har.
Evan so, ha continuad to hold har hand without latting go.
Laanna suddanly falt anragad to saa him baing so shamalass for tha first tima.
Just as sha was about to bring har foot up a sacond tima, Aidan quickly ralaasad har hand from his
grip.
Sarvas you right! sha thought whila scoffing.
Sha was no longar in tha mood to watch tha parformanca anymora aftar this absurd incidant. Sha took
tha chanca whan Danial had gottan off tha staga for an outfit changa to turn har haad and whispar, “I’m
sorry, Elijah. I hava to laava now.”
Laanna swiftly stood up aftar saying that.
Saaing this, Elijah quickly stood up and want aftar har whila offaring, “Lat ma giva you a rida.”
Howavar, as ha was passing by har saat, ha unaxpactadly noticad Aidan sitting in tha saat that
originally balongad to Zoa. Aidan lookad indiffarant, and ha had no axprassion whatsoavar on his faca.
Out of courtasy, Elijah gava him a graating.
Aidan’s tongua dartad out to lick his thin lowar lip as ha watchad tham laava ona aftar anothar. Ha than
lowarad his gaza to look at his palm that still had Laanna’s lingaring warmth bafora ha also got up.
Zoa was still sitting in har saat whan har ayas flickarad batwaan tha axit and tha staga, and sha finally
had no choica but to stomp outsida to follow aftar tham
“Ara you still not faaling wall, Laanna?” Elijah callad out to Laanna to stop har whan thay wara in tha
corridor.
Har staps cama to a stop bafora sha turnad around and shook har haad. “No. It’s just that somathing
cama up.”
“Whara ara you haading to? I will drop you off.”
“It is fina. Thara’s no naad to troubla yoursalf. I can go thara mysalf. You should go back into tha hall.”
He let out a smile at that. “It just so happens that I feel a little stuffy being in there, and I want to come
out for a stroll. Let me walk you to the exit.”
Leanna couldn’t refuse anymore after hearing his words, so the two walked outside together.
Elijah spoke again after a while. “Leanna, if you’re free tomorrow night, can I invite you to dinner?”
She thought about it, and feeling somewhat embarrassed to abruptly leave like this today, she
suggested, “I do have time, but let me buy you dinner instead. I am really sorry about today.”
“Don’t worry about it. You really don’t have to take it to heart.”
“Alright, I will let Zoe know when I get home. We will see you tomorrow.” Leanna smiled at him.
However, Elijah suddenly murmured, “Leanna, I want it to be just the two of us tomorrow. Don’t ask Zoe
to come along.”
Upon hearing that, Leanna was slightly startled and she froze.
Meanwhile, Elijah observed her reaction and asked tentatively, “Is that okay?”
Just as she was unable to come up with a response, a cold male voice came from behind them. “No.”
Hearing this, Elijah turned around, only to call out in surprise, “President Pearson?”
Aidan walked to Leanna and stood beside her, his eyes shifting to Elijah as he spoke. “She has plans
for tomorrow.”
“What plans do I have?” Leanna was the one who questioned.
Seemingly dissatisfied with her not going along with him, Aidan immediately pursed his lips and peered
at her from the corner of his eye. “Just know that you do because I said so,” he muttered.
She let out a forced laugh at that. She then smiled at Elijah and said, “Sure. Let’s do it.”
Elijah seemed surprised at first, but he soon nodded. “I will come pick you up tomorrow, then.”
With a smile, she bid him farewell. “I am off. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Leanna then turned around and started to march away after saying that.
Aidan was about to go after her when someone grabbed him by the arm. Upon being stopped, he
sneered, “Let go.”
“Can I ask what are you doing now, President Pearson?” Elijah asked.
“It has got nothing to do with you.”
“Why do you think so? I believe that you can tell I am pursuing Leanna. I can compete fairly with you if
you are also pursuing her, but please stop acting so overbearingly. I hope you show her some respect,
President Pearson.”
When Aidan heard that, he looked back at Elijah and chuckled coldly. “Who told you that I am pursuing
her?”
“If you are not, can you give a good explanation for your behavior?” Elijah asked in return.
“Sure.” Aidan then said slowly, “Let me remind you too that Leanna is my wife, President Parker.
Please stay away from her.”
A small voice interrupted them right at this moment. “Ex-wife, you mean.”
When Aidan wordlessly looked over, Zoe immediately turned away and looked at everything but him as
she pretended that nothing happened.
There was no way anyone could break up the couple she had paired together!
“So that is how it is.” Elijah let out a chuckle, which prompted Aidan to look at him again.
“Will you still continue sticking around now that you know what our relationship is, President Parker?”
Elijah only commented, “I’ve heard that you have a wife whom you don’t treat like one. Could it be that
you are regretting it after the divorce? In my opinion, the person who is relentlessly sticking around is
you, President Pearson.”
Aidan’s expression gradually started to darken as he looked at Elijah coldly.
Elijah then continued, “I am truly grateful that you are telling me this. I finally know what Leanna has
had to go through in the past. In the future, I will treat her way better than you did to make up for the
grief she suffered in the past.”
After he finished speaking, Elijah nodded slightly to Aidan, and turned to leave.
Seeing this, Zoe hurried after the man.
She was worried she would be exterminated by Aidan if she continued to stay there.
Jonathan soon came in after the two of them left. “President Pearson,” he reported. “Mrs. Pearson is
heading that way.”
Aidan, however, asked in a casual tone, “Do you also think that Leanna did nothing but suffer in the
three years she was married to me?”
“Um…”
Jonathan had a feeling that this was a question that didn’t have a right answer.
But he knew that he might have to pay with his life if he somehow answered wrongly.
After he weighed it over the next few seconds, he gingerly answered, “President Pearson, I do think
you have some misunderstanding about Mrs. Pearson, but… it is not like you never cared for her.”
“What are some examples of me showing her I care?”
Jonathan kept quiet when nothing came to mind.
Aidan was never someone who uttered pleasant words.
He might have improved a lot now, but Jonathan had witnessed firsthand how many hurtful things had
come out of Aidan’s mouth in the past three years.
Not to mention what Aidan would say to Leanna when they were alone, the words Jonathan had heard
from Aidan would have been enough to warrant curses all the way back to his ancestors.
Noticing how quiet Jonathan had become after his question, Aidan clenched his jaw and walked out of
the place.
