After Aidan closed the door behind him, Leanna shifted her gaze back to Elijah. She pursed her lips for
a moment and said, “I’ve been thinking, and I thought we should start by getting along with each other,
but I’m sorry.”
“And we’re just starting to get along. You don’t have to reject me right away.”
Leanna shook her head. She couldn’t try to date Elijah while she still had ties with Aidan. It would be
unfair to him.
Elijah said, “I know what you’re thinking. But you and he are two different people.”
“No, that’s not what I meant.” She thought about her answer for a moment. “I used to think I know what
I want, and I never looked back after the divorce, but now…”
“Now you’re wavering.”
Leanna couldn’t answer for a moment. She was wavering.
For a while in the past, she thought Aidan liked her less than the files in his office, but now she realized
he might not just be fooling around. It was tonight that she saw the real him, when before he was
hidden beneath layers of veil.
Her silence was affirmation. Elijah paused for a moment, then he said, “You guys were married for
three years. It’s normal that you have lingering feelings for him. I can wait, Leanna. Until you’ve
forgotten all about him. Until you can start anew.”
Start anew. That’s what I always tell myself. She thought she could forget the past if she started a new
life, but now she realized things didn’t work that way.
There were no fresh starts. Starting a new life didn’t mean the past would be deleted from memory.
For example, her marriage with Aidan. She knew he despised her, but after living with him for years,
Leanna slowly fell for him. Even though she kept calling him names, some part of her would always fall
for him. I wish things were so easy.
Elijah said, “It’s late. Get some sleep. We’ll talk later.”
Leanna was indeed tired, so she nodded. “You too.”
She went back into her room and lay on the bed. There was nothing to do but stare at the ceiling. Half
an hour later, someone rang the doorbell. She went over and opened the door only to be met by a staff
member.
He handed her a gift box and a phone. “You left these in the villa.”
She looked at the phone, and realization struck her. Oh, I left these on the sofa. The box was the gift
that the staff member said was for her. Judging from the situation, this is from Aidan. She took the
items from the staff member. “Thank you.”
The staff member bowed to her and left.
Leanna closed the door. The wound on her leg was reopening, so she hopped and skipped inside until
she got to her bed. First, she took the charger out of her bag and plugged it into her phone before
turning around to look at the gift box on the bed.
She stared at the box for a while, wondering if she should open it. Hey, it’s already here, so I might as
well take a look, right? Throwing this out is gonna be a waste. She wanted to sate her curiosity.
Leanna unraveled the ribbon and took the lid off.
The box contained the chocolate she had been craving ever since she finished the one Aidan brought
back from his trip to Gerland, back when they were still married. There was also a necklace and a card
inside.
Leanna opened the card. A line that read, ‘Third Anniversary’ was written on it.
The font was powerful, and the content was simple.
It’s his handwriting, and it looks like something he would come up with. She stared at the card for a
while, and then an idea popped into her mind. Wait. Is this the gift he wanted to give me on the
anniversary?
That’s probably it. No reason to write ‘Third Anniversary’ otherwise. Man, he’s stingy. He said the
fireworks were to make up for the lost first anniversary, but this gift is meant for the third anniversary.
A smile curled her lips. She unwrapped a piece of chocolate and popped as I remember it.
At this moment, her phone vibrated. Okay. My phone’s charged. She took it and saw a lot of missed
calls from Elijah. Zoe had texted her a ton as well. She looked at the time. It’s not too late. She’s still
awake, I guess. Leanna called her.
The call went through easily. Zoe said, “Are you alright, Nana? Elijah said you went to see Aidan, and
he couldn’t get through to you. What happened?”
“It’s a long story.”
“And I can’t sleep. Tell me all about it.”
Man. She coughed and changed the subject, “How did your date go?”
That successfully shifted Zoe’s attention. Her date didn’t go well, and she grumbled, “I should have
helped the college students. Daniel’s an idiot.”
“What happened?”
“He asked Louis and I out for dinner. Before we left, Louis said he had something to do, so I had to go
alone. I thought it was awkward, but at least I was given an opening. But guess what Daniel said when
I got to the restaurant?”
Leanna asked, “His canned foods are almost expired?”
Zoe sneered. “Worse than that. So all the food was served, and he told me his religion tells him he
can’t have meat on certain days. Today is one of those days. He got up and left, leaving me alone. That
guy is wack. Why did he even ask me out if he didn’t want to have dinner with me? And that excuse is
stupid. He’s the weirdest guy I’ve ever met.”
Huh? But Daniel seems like a normal guy. Never thought he’d be this unreliable.
Zoe still didn’t forget about her friend’s predicament even though her date went sourly. “But that’s
nothing compared to your problem. So what did that *sshole do to you this time?”
