Chapter 214

Maybe it was Aidan’s unrelenting pressure that pushed Leanna toward Elijah.

Thus, he had to change his game plan.

Oscar snickered. “Then… good luck.”

Aidan glanced at him in displeasure. “Is that how you look like when you’re wishing someone good luck?”

Oscar wanted to roll his eyes.

“I think your new method doesn’t work either, Aidan. And it boils down to you not knowing how a woman thinks.”

“But I know what Leanna is thinking,” Aidan replied.

Well, he does have a point, Oscar thought.

Leanna came out of the stall and got some tissues to wipe her hand. She was just about to leave the washroom when someone brushed past her.

Then, she heard a woman’s voice calling out behind her, “Leanna McKinney?”

She stopped in her track and turned around.

Maya was startled at first, but she soon crossed her arms and eyed Leanna imperiously. “What are you doing here? Did you come with Elijah Parker?”

“No.”

“How odd then. This is an expensive place. Don’t tell me you’re here with friends.”

Maya’s derisive tone made it clear that she turned her nose up at Leanna.

“It has nothing to do with you,” Leanna responded calmly.

Maya didn’t expect her to respond like that. Her expression shifted, and she scoffed, “I was just reminding you out of the kindness of my heart. Perhaps you didn’t know, but the alcohol here starts at four figures. I’m worried that all your hard-earned money would be wasted in one night. After all, people in the service industry like you have a hard time making money.”

“So, after saying all that, what you mean is you’ll treat me to a drink tonight?”

Maya gulped. She couldn’t think of anything to say in response.

Her husband had a gathering with his friends here tonight. She had to plead with him for ages before he relented and allowed her to come along with him.
