Love's Change of Heart
Chapter 83
Hearing that, Harry let out a sigh of relief and said with a dry smile, "So that was the case. I thought for a second there you knew President Pearson well."
Leanna was about to answer when a cold male voice sounded from behind. "I also think that Miss McKinney knows me quite well."
She fell silent.
Harry hurriedly said, "President Pearson, Leanna didn't mean it that way..."
"Leanna?" Aidan scoffed coldly. "From the way you're calling each other by your first names, it seems that you two are very close."
His words made Harry extremely flustered. "I... Leanna and I..."
Leanna looked at Aidan calmly and said, "President Pearson, if you have anything to say about me, you can just say it. Don't always take it out on others."
He slowly looked toward her, his gaze turning frosty.
At the sight of their tense conversation, although Harry wanted to speak up several times, the words faded into nothing whenever he tried to open his mouth.
After a few seconds, Aidan said coldly, "Miss McKinney, you must think of yourself as someone very important."
"If that's the case, I'll be taking my leave first," Leanna replied with a slight nod at him. Then, she turned and left.
"Leanna…" Harry hurriedly called out before he turned back and said to Aidan, "I'm really sorry, President Pearson. I'll come back after I escort Leanna to the car."
She had already walked to the entrance and was waiting for the car. When she saw Harry following after her, she said, "I can go back alone. You don't have to send me back."
Harry replied, "It's fine; I'll wait until you get into the car."
Just by standing next to her, Harry could feel anger emanating all over her body and he hesitated for a while before asking, "Leanna, do you and President Pearson know each other?"
Leanna was taken aback and didn't know what to say all of a sudden.
He continued, "Both of you are from Highside. Did you two have any kind of misunderstanding in the past?"
As a matter of fact, it wasn't a tough guess either. The reason for their animosity toward each other had to be that they had a grudge or they just didn't get along, but an extremely powerful and busy man like Aidan wouldn't constantly be finding fault with a girl he had met for the first time and causing trouble for her.
On the other hand, during the two weeks since Leanna moved to Underwood Lane, she was always sweet, good-tempered, and full of smiles toward everyone, and Harry had never seen her talking to anyone in this tone.
Leanna didn't know how to explain things to him either. Then, a cab arrived and she said, "Let's continue this tomorrow. I'll be leaving first."
Harry nodded. "Then, send me a text when you get home."
"All right."
After watching the cab drive away, Harry slowly retracted his gaze. When he returned to the private room, the leader asked unhappily, "Harry, where have you been?"
"I…"
"It's fine, you don't have to explain. President Pearson has left, so let's end things here today."
…
When Leanna got home, Naomi was already asleep, and her surroundings were quiet, with only the occasional chirps of insects ringing in her ears. She sat in the yard, holding her head and looking above her. In the distant sky, the moon slowly showed itself before it was quickly covered by the clouds.
Falling into deep thought, she sighed silently. When she retracted her hand, she found that her left ear was empty, and her earring had fallen off without her realizing. She had really brought her misfortune home. Every time she bumped into Aidan, no good came out of it.
Just as she was about to return to her room with a tired expression, there was a knock on the door, causing her to pause and look over subconsciously. It was already late, and her neighbors were all asleep, so it couldn't be them.
Leanna asked softly, "Who is it?"
However, the person outside the door did not answer. She was about to ignore them, but as soon as she took two steps into the house, a knock sounded again.
Soon after, she heard Jonathan's voice. "Miss McKinney, it's me."
Speechless, she opened the door and was met with Jonathan's polite smile. Next to him, a slender and tall figure with his hands in his pockets faced her sideways, looking at the night scenery in the distance.
Leanna suppressed her temper. "It's late. Do you need anything?"
Jonathan coughed. "Miss McKinney, didn't you have something to speak to President Pearson about in the morning? He has time now."
"Oh, it's nothing now."
With that, she took a step back and was about to close the door when Aidan looked back at her with an unhappy expression. "Leanna, don't push your luck."
Leanna answered calmly, "President Pearson, what are you talking about? I always know my place. Pushing my luck is something that doesn't exist to me."
