Chapter 240

Aidan’s dark eyes glinted as he looked at her. Then, he said without warning, “They’re gone now. If you still want it, I can line up with you.”

“It’s okay. I was just kidding.”

She just wanted to piss the b*stard off on purpose so that he would get mad and leave the love lock alone.

However, she did not expect him to behave so unusually and she felt rather awkward about it now.

Aidan’s thin lips curved ever so slightly as he held her hand again before walking forward slowly.

When he secured the lock on the bridge, Leanna was scanning her surroundings, trying to hide the nervousness and remorse she felt inside her.

After the lock was attached, Leanna said, “It’s getting late now. I should leave. You can stay behind on your own if you want to, President Pearson.”

With that, she hurriedly strode away.

Leaving the love lock bridge, Leanna felt that even the air was fresher now that the crowd had thinned. She let out a long breath, then took her phone to hail a ride back when someone grasped her wrist. “Here.”

Leanna pouted. She had been running so fast, but the b*stard still managed to catch up to her.

After the extended delay at the love lock bridge, it was 10.00PM by the time they went back to Underwood Lane.

In the past, Naomi would have been asleep at that hour.

Yet today, the lights in the yard were shining brightly as a baby’s cries could be heard in the house.

Hearing that, Leanna hastily ran in.

In the yard, Naomi was holding the baby in her arms as she coaxed him.

“Ms. Fletcher, what happened to him?” asked Leanna.

Naomi answered, “It’s okay, all babies are like this at night. They’ll make a fuss, so you just have to put them to sleep.”
