Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 74

Leanna cleared her throat and shifted her eyes away unnaturally. Something like this which is clear to everyone should be left unsaid, she thought. It's so awkward to say it out loud.

Fixing his cold eyes on her, Aidan didn't have a single shard of emotion on his handsome face.

A few seconds later, she lifted the blanket and said, "Sorry to trouble you today, President Pearson. I'm going home now…"

Standing in front of the bed, he had his hands in his pockets and a stoic face.

As she was dizzy and weak to begin with, she had almost exhausted all her energy trying to force herself out of the bed, and the second her foot landed on the floor, her vision turned black. Subconsciously, she held on to something to stop herself from passing out.

When she had recovered a little, her eyes traced along her arm and she saw the thing she had grabbed onto—Aidan's shirt.

An awkward chuckle escaped her lips and she withdrew her hand, but after she lost her support, she couldn't help but fall backward. Raising his arm, Aidan held her around her waist, but the great inertia toppled both of them onto the bed.

Leanna blinked, her cheeks blushing brightly as her eyes teared up.

Supporting himself with both hands, he looked into her eyes and asked in a husky voice, "What do you mean with those eyes?"

Looking away, she asked herself, What eyes? I just feel my body burning, and I can't help but want to… get closer to him.

Holding her chin, he forced her to look into his eyes. "Tell me, what would you like to do?" he said lazily.

However, Leanna didn't answer him and merely thought that even though they were so close, she couldn't seem to tell what was on his mind.

At the office today, Aidan was like a block of ice which could never be melted—cold and feelingless. However, in a blink of an eye, he rushed over to save her and appeared in a place where he shouldn't be.

In an attempt to intensify his revenge against her, he had done all that was possible, and just a small ploy from him could make her bear tens of millions in debt. Despite that, he never mentioned that Jethro had asked him for money.

Three years of marriage and Leanna thought that she more or less knew Aidan a little, but she realized now that she never knew the man.

Seeing that she was in a daze, Aidan knitted his brows in annoyance. "Say something."

Slowly, she uttered, "Nothing. I just suddenly feel that you're quite good-looking, President Pearson."

Aidan was speechless, and she suddenly raised her arms, circled them around his neck and lifted her head a little as she placed her lips on his.

She had stretched out her arms and hugged him around his neck to kiss him as his dark eyes gradually dimmed. It had been four months since she filed for divorce, and he hadn't touched her for a very long time.

Everything proceeded naturally and at the last step, Leanna held his hands in reflex. "You… Be gentle."

As he gazed into her teary eyes, his heart softened without a reason, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Okay."

Since she was a little terrified and nervous, she couldn't help but moan softly when he approached her.

An expressionless Aidan peered at her. "Aren't you overreacting a little?"

"I'm not… It hurts."

"You didn't seem to hurt this much when it was your first time."

"That's different…"

At that time, she was drugged and had lost consciousness. So, how could she have felt the pain?

"Should I get you something to make things more thrilling for you?" he asked.

Leanna was quiet while thinking, This jerk is so demanding.

Kissing her forehead, Aidan softened his voice as he said, "Bear with it a little, okay?"

In reply, she whimpered from her throat and clenched his arms tightly.

…

When it was over, she was completely knocked out from exhaustion, and even when he carried her for a wash in the bathroom, she didn't look like she was going to wake up at all.

Pulling over the bath towel, he then dried her and placed her on the bed. Without the clothes as cover, the small bump on her belly was now more obvious.

Lowering his eyes, he went on one knee next to the bed and placed his hand softly on it.

Even though Leanna was fast asleep, she lifted her hand subconsciously because she could sense someone drawing close.

Slap!

The crisp, clear sound of a slap echoed in the room and stunned Aidan. Immediately, he looked up with eyes so cold that it could turn one into ice. However, Leanna didn't notice it at all. After murmuring a little, she rolled over and curled up her body in a protective position.
