Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 227

Aidan answered slowly and calmly, “No. I didn’t do this.”

Leanna chortled. She didn’t believe him at all. She approached the boulders and shone her flashlight around to look for a way out.

At the same time, Aidan said, “We’re on a mountain path. It’s normal that boulders roll around and block the way. Someone will clean them up in the morning.”

She ignored him. Leanna took her heels off and tried to climb over the boulders.

As Aidan watched her climb, he poked his teeth with his tongue and pinched his nose before going ahead.

There were a lot of stones around the boulder. Not only did Leanna fail to climb across, but her feet were also injured as well. She was going for another attempt, but someone suddenly picked her up and took her down from the boulders.

She snarkily retorted, “And I have no idea how you can do something like this without feeling any shame.”

Aidan put her down on the ground. “I didn’t do this.”

“Your words mean nothing to me.”

He put a hand on his shoulders and stared down at her. “Suit yourself.” He licked his lips. A few moments later, Aidan added, “There’s no way out tonight, but there’s a place to stay on the mountain. Wanna come?”

Without hesitation, she answered, “No.”
