Chapter 215

Aidan’s eyes darkened. His Adam’s apple bobbed a little. “That’s not enough.”

Leanna cocked her head to the side as if she was trying to think what would convey enough sincerity.

At the very next second, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. This time, she carefully stuck her tongue out to lick his lips.

All at once, Aidan’s hands tightened around her waist. He reached up one hand to cup her head before deepening the kiss.

She was a little uncomfortable at first. Her lips stung in pain, but since it was their wedding anniversary and she hadn’t prepared a gift, she figured that he was upset.

Slowly, she began to respond to his kiss.

She sensed that Aidan was a little different today. He was a lot gentler than usual.

It was the kind of gentleness that intoxicated her.

Just then, someone opened the door to the private room.

Elijah was stunned to see the sight in front of him. His fists clenched.

After a pause, he turned around and left at once.

When Leanna heard the door closing, she immediately pushed Aidan away. Her face was bright red as she stammered, “T-There’s someone…”

“Ignore them.”

He pulled her head near and kissed her once more.

It was much, much later when he finally released her.

Leanna was nestled in his arms and gasped a little. Her fingers gripped his shirt as she asked dazedly, “Aren’t we going home?”

Aidan stared at her glistening eyes and asked hoarsely, “What do you want to do when we get home, hm?”

His stare made her feel a little embarrassed. She looked away. Her heart was about to leap out of her chest.

He smirked and caressed her head. “We can’t today.”

This was enough. If he took advantage of her now, once she sobered up, anger would be a gross understatement of what her reaction would be.

He carried her in his arms and murmured, “I’ll take you home.”
