Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 153

Leanna was long gone when Zoe woke up, much to her horror. She shot up and searched the room, but her friend was nowhere to be seen. She barged out of the room and was about to ask the nurses if they saw Leanna, but Aidan was the first thing she saw. She cursed him silently, but this was not the time to argue with him. “Nana’s gone, Mr. Pearson!” she quickly said.

Aidan stopped in his tracks, and his face fell. He turned to the nurse behind him. “I need to see the security footage.”

The nurse took them to the surveillance room, but the cameras only saw Leanna coming out of her room and wobbling into the emergency exit. After that, it was like she vanished.

Zoe frowned. She muttered, “She can’t have gone far. Look at her. She’s wobbling. I hope she’s not passed out somewhere.”

Jonathan said, “Our men have been keeping a close eye on the exit, but they didn’t see the madam.”

In other words, Leanna must still be in the hospital.

Aidan pursed his lips and took two steps back, then left the room. Zoe called out to him, but when she poked her head out the door, he was already gone.

He went to the rooftop, and as expected, Leanna was there. She was holding the guardrail, though she was still wobbling from the wind. It was like she would fall the very next moment. Aidan approached her slowly. “What are you doing, Leanna?”

Leanna looked ahead. “What brings you here, Mr. Pearson?” She did not even look back, and the wind distorted her voice.

“I’m asking the questions here.”

Leanna chuckled and answered, “What do you think I was going to do? Jump down from the rooftop? You worry too much. I wouldn’t have come this far if I’m that weak.” She looked up. “I was just trying to get some fresh air.”
