Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 229

After Aidan closed the door behind him, Leanna shifted her gaze back to Elijah. She pursed her lips for a moment and said, “I’ve been thinking, and I thought we should start by getting along with each other, but I’m sorry.”

“And we’re just starting to get along. You don’t have to reject me right away.”

Leanna shook her head. She couldn’t try to date Elijah while she still had ties with Aidan. It would be unfair to him.

“No, that’s not what I meant.” She thought about her answer for a moment. “I used to think I know what I want, and I never looked back after the divorce, but now…”

“Now you’re wavering.”

Start anew. That’s what I always tell myself. She thought she could forget the past if she started a new life, but now she realized things didn’t work that way.
