After a pause, Leanna uttered, “Just like what you said, those are young women. Perhaps the one he’s
in love with is—”
“A man?”
Leanna was speechless for a moment before saying, “No, he’s straight.”
Daphne replied with a smile, “I know. I’m just pulling your leg. Anyway, your brother is truly handsome
and intelligent, not to mention he’s studying at a top university. Any woman would fall in love with him,
so you don’t have to worry about it.”
Since it was Louis’ personal affair, Leanna didn’t think she had the right to break it to Daphne. As such,
she only nodded gently. A moment later, she said, “Do you have any work arrangements?”
Daphne replied, “There’s nothing much to do. I’ll probably appear in some variety shows, and I’ll be
shooting a movie in two months.”
With Daphne around, Leanna wasn’t bored. The entire afternoon went by quickly as the ladies had a
joyful conversation. Upon Aidan’s arrival, Daphne tactfully left the place. Aidan entered the ward and
asked, “What did you two talk about?”
“Nothing much. It was just casual talk,” Leanna replied. “When will I be leaving the hospital tomorrow?”
“I’ll pick you up in the afternoon; I have a meeting to attend in the morning.”
Leanna said, “It’s fine. I can leave the hospital on my own.”
Naturally, Aidan wouldn’t agree to it. “You’re not going anywhere until I arrive.”
Leanna couldn’t help but murmur, “Will you stop being domineering for once?”
With a milder expression, Aidan said, “I’ll ask your brother to come over and help get you discharged,
then.”
Leanna picked up a pillow and hurled it at him. “Stop being ridiculous!”
The man took it with ease as a smile played on his lips. “I have a piece of good news and a piece of
bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?”
“Neither.”
“Forget it, then.”
Leanna was silent for a moment before turning to him. “Hey, tell me.”
“Didn’t you say you didn’t want to know?”
Hearing that, Leanna hurled another pillow at him. Aidan looked smilingly at her as he decided to stop
teasing her. “We found out that Jimmy has been transferring a lot of his assets to several overseas
accounts.”
“Is that good news or bad news?”
“Bad news,” Aidan explained. “It means that Jimmy is ready to run away. Once he leaves Highside, the
Crossley Group will have to take responsibility for the problems he’s created.”
Leanna frowned and asked, “What about the good news?”
“The good news is that Jimmy is involved in a murder case, so he’s been barred from leaving the
country.”
Leanna was startled upon hearing that. “A murder case?”
Aidan asked calmly, “Do you remember Elliot?”
“Yes, but he…”
“We haven’t found the murderer in that case, so it has been aptly used to keep Jimmy grounded in the
country.”
A smile appeared on Leanna’s face. “Did you do it?”
Aidan arched his brow. “Although I love how you look at me with has nothing to do with me.”
Leanna ignored him. A moment later, Aidan went on to say,
Leanna pressed her lips together. “Probably not. I don’t have a reason to be there.”
“It’s easy to find a reason,” Aidan said slowly. “As a business partner, it’s only natural that I’ll be seeing
him off. Meanwhile, as my wife, you have every reason to come with me.”
“Thank you very much,” Leanna said scornfully.
“You’re welcome. As your husband, that’s the least I can do.”
Leanna snuck under the quilt. “I don’t know. Let me think about it and don’t say anything else!”
The instant she finished speaking, she realized it was indeed quiet outside the quilt. Feeling stuffy a
moment later, she stuck out her head, only to see Aidan going through some documents on the couch.
She said, “Give one of the pillows back to me.”
Aidan looked up without saying a word. Then, he lifted his chin and motioned for her to take it herself.
Left with no choice, Leanna got out of bed and walked over. The moment she picked up a pillow, she
felt a grab on her wrist. The next second, she fell into the man’s warm embrace. Before she could say
anything, darkness descended on her as the man clenched the back of her head and locked lips with
hers.
After the kiss ended, Leanna found it hard to breathe while feeling light-headed. She pressed her
hands against the man’s chest and snapped, “How… How could you do such a thing to me all of a
sudden?”
Aidan then wrapped his arm around the woman’s waist. “You told me not to say anything.”
“Was that how you interpreted it?”
“How should I have done it, then?”
Leanna patted his hand. “Release me. I need to get some sleep.”
“Can you even fall asleep at this hour?”
An unfazed Leanna said, “I’ll doze off as soon as I close my eyes.”
Aidan snorted. “Don’t get any sleep yet. There’s something you have to do.”
“Don’t forget that we’re in the hospital! You…”
Aidan found it amusing. “So what if we’re in the hospital?”
“A hospital is a sacred place, so you shouldn’t do anything indecent here. You’ll be arrested.”
Aidan was speechless for a moment before saying, “I’m starting to doubt the nature of your work now.”
Leanna didn’t understand him. Then, Aidan fished out a piece of blank paper from a document and
passed it to her. “Don’t you remember what you owe me?”
“Just like what you said, I owe you a lot of things. How am I supposed to know which one you’re talking
about?”
“I’m glad you know you owe me many things.”
When Leanna saw him holding out a pen, she knew what he was up to. She turned him down by
saying, “I don’t think it’s a good idea. Moreover, I’m a patient now. Such mentally taxing work will have
to wait until…”
Just as Leanna tried running toward the bed, Aidan pulled her back. He said, “I’m right in front of you.
Why would it be mentally taxing?”
Leanna cried, “Wait a minute. I’m starting to feel dizzy as we speak. Please call for a doctor.”
Nonetheless, Aidan only glanced at her expressionlessly. Leanna was speechless. After struggling
internally for several moments, she conceded and took the pen from his hand.
When she sketched Aidan secretly back then, it was usually because she wanted to do so. Now that he
was seated right in front of the woman and staring at her, she felt so pressured that she couldn’t draw
anything. She said, “Let go of me first. I’ll go over there. I can’t draw like this.”
Only then did Aidan release her. Leanna stood up straight and sat down on the bed with the piece of
paper and the pen. While sitting across from him, she found it hard to even start drawing. Then, she
started biting the tip of the pen.
Seeing that, Aidan furrowed his brows. “That’s dirty.”
Leanna coughed and adjusted her posture. “Don’t move. I’ll start drawing now. Don’t say anything
either, or else it’ll disrupt me. Once disrupted, inspiration will be gone for good.”
“Alright.”
After the man agreed to it, Leanna subconsciously curled up her lips. Then, she began sketching on
the piece of paper. Barely five minutes later, she put down the pen. “I’m done.”
Aidan didn’t believe her. “That was quick. Are you being perfunctory?”
“I’m sleepy. Goodnight.” As Leanna spoke, she placed the drawing under her pillow and closed her
eyes.
