Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 14

A cold and indifferent voice that was devoid of emotion engulfed from behind.

Leanna sighed and closed her eyes. This is going to be a bloodbath.

At the sight of Aidan, Anna's act of restraint only lasted a second before she added fuel to the fire, thinking that her cousin would back her up. "Aidan, look at Leanna! She is so shameless."

With that, he gave Leanna a cold look.

On the other hand, Zayn stood in front of Leanna the moment Aidan cast a glance on her.

Seeing this, Aidan questioned with a chuckle, "What are you doing, Mr. Barnett?"

Stunned and speechless, poor Zayn had not even recovered from the fact that Leanna and Aidan were married.

Leanna then reached out her hand and gently pushed Zayn to the side before letting out a dry chuckle. "Nothing, he's just a friend. We're just greeting each other. If there are no other issues, I'll be the first to leave."

She had only taken a few steps when her wrist was grabbed.

She reacted quickly by retching out loud.

The hand was withdrawn within a second.

Just like that, Leanna fled the scene like a flash.

Zoe was resting her eyes and listening to music in the car when she noticed the car door suddenly opened. "You're done so soon? I expected you two to talk a little longer."

"Don't mention it. Anna knew Zayn, then Aidan came. Fortunately, I ran quickly or else I might be dead on the spot." Leanna sighed.

"Anna? The girl…" Zoe frowned and asked.

Before she finished her words, Leanna understood what she was trying to say and nodded lightly.

"Didn't she flee the country immediately after the accident? She does have the guts to return, doesn't she? Is she really not afraid of karma?"

At that moment, Leanna suddenly vomited again, so she quickly took out a peppermint candy from her bag and stuffed it into her mouth. "Zoe, let's go to the hospital," she said.


"Have you… thought about it?"

…

"Everything is normal. The reason for your severe morning sickness this time is also due to your body. The reaction will be relatively relieved if you eat lightly and go for more walks," the doctor explained after Leanna's checkup.

"There is no problem with the rest. Please return after twelve weeks for a pregnancy checkup," the doctor concluded and she nodded lightly.

"I see, thank you."

When Zoe saw Leanna exiting the doctor's office, she ran over and asked, "Nana, how did it go?"

"Everything is fine, according to the doctor."

After hearing that, Zoe breathed a sigh of relief. She suddenly remembered that this was not what she wanted to ask. However, after seeing Leanna's face, she did not ask any further. "Then, let's go back."

On their way back, Zoe received a call from the magazine stating that the total sales volume had surpassed one million. Lany mentioned that Leanna was the star of tonight's celebration banquet and inquired as to where she had gone.

"She's not feeling well, so I took her home. Please notify Mr. Mancini that we will not be attending the afterparty," Zoe told the editor-in-chief.

She then turned to face Leanna after hanging up the phone. "Nana, are you okay?"

The pregnant woman leaned her head against the car window in deep thoughts. It took her a while to come back to her senses after hearing Zoe's words. "I want to keep this child," she uttered.

Earlier on, she was lying in the hospital bed when she noticed a small dot with the size of a soybean on the monitor; it was then when a strange feeling arose in her heart.

It was as if her child from three years ago had returned to her side.

I can't possibly kill my baby again.

"Okay, I'll raise the child with you and when you get remarried in the future; let that b*stard's child calls another man 'daddy' to piss him off!" Zoe said in a relaxed manner.

"Yeah, thinking about that face of his makes me feel good," Leanna said as a smile plastered on her pale face.

Upon the decision of keeping the child, her first thought was to keep it a secret from Aidan.

At least not right now.

Despite the fact that their marriage was disgraceful, she hoped the divorce would at least be pleasant.

Leanna's phone rang as soon as the car stopped downstairs. "Hello, who is it?" she asked as she picked up the phone while looking at the string of unfamiliar numbers.

"Hey, Leanna. It's me."

She remained silent while holding the phone despite hearing the familiar voice.

"I was in a hurry just now and I didn't have time to say anything," Zayn added.

"Zayn," she called out his name. "What Anna said is true. I'm married and I wormed my way into the Pearson Family."

"Leanna, I know that's not who you are. I don't believe Anna and it doesn't matter to me why you married Aidan. I'm just curious about what happened three years ago and why you decided to turn down the chance for Aeras. I thought we promised."

"What's past is past. It's time we move on," she responded.

"Then… have you moved on from us too?"

"I'm married."

"I know there's no love between you and Aidan. I can wait for you."

At this moment, Leanna suddenly felt the phone becoming hot. Her eyelashes fluttered nervously and she finally said, "Don't. I'm not worth your wait."
