Chapter 140

Just as Sienna was about to continue, Gordon interrupted unhappily, “Alright now, is this farce over? Can’t we even eat in peace?”

Those at the table finally quietened down.

After dinner, Sienna and Gordon left while Leanna stood up as she wanted to return to her room when Georgina blocked her path.

Standing in front of her, Georgina smiled subtly. “Miss McKinney, how are you considering my proposal from this afternoon?”

Leanna replied, “Thank you for your gesture, Miss Crossley, but I think I won’t be going.”

“Are you worried that Mr Pearson won’t let you go? Or are you worried about Anna? I—”

“Miss Crossley,” Leanna cut her off. “A wedding is a very important event with a lot of things that need preparation. If I go, I might just be wasting your time.”

Georgina paused before showing an apologetic expression. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to say those words during the meal. It’s just because—”

“You don’t need to apologize to me, Miss Crossley. I don’t think you did anything wrong to me.” While saying this, Leanna suddenly felt tired and at a loss for words, so she softly stated, “I only want to rest now. Again, it should be me who should be apologizing to you for ruining your mood, Miss Crossley.”

Then, she nodded apologetically toward Georgina and went upstairs.

Leanna stood at the window for a while after returning to her room, only to sit down with a sigh of relief after seeing the black sedan slowly drive away.

Then, someone knocked on her door after some time.

She composed herself before walking toward the door.

Opening the door, she saw Aidan standing in front of it with his hands in his pockets and a cold gaze.

Leanna was a bit shocked at this.

Yet, she still shut the door without a shred of hesitation.

The moment she did that, Aidan reached out and blocked the door, looking at her with a dissatisfied gaze.

She could only ask him politely, “Is there anything, President Pearson?”

Retracting his hand back into his pocket, he replied, “I saw that you weren’t eating much, so I had the chefs whip up some more food. They’ll send it up later.”

“Oh, thank you, President Pearson,” said Leanna and closed the door again.

Aidan looked coldly at her without speaking. Then, he asked, “Is this how you’re going to act?”
