Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 291

Lizzy continued to chat with Leanna for some time before finally getting to the main point. “Leanna, I came over here today mainly to ask on behalf of Eli whether there is any chance between the two of you?”

Pursing her lips, Leanna paused for a few seconds before replying, “Mrs. Parker, I’m friends with Elijah and we’ve already talked things through.”

“Is that so?” Lizzy heaved a sigh. “I am to be blamed for this. I came here without Eli’s knowledge, so please don’t take it to heart.”

“It’s fine, Mrs. Parker. You shouldn’t worry too much about this.”

The lady rose to her feet as she spoke, “Since that’s the case, then I won’t disrupt you from working. I’ll be on my way, then.”

As such, Leanna got up after her and sent her to the door.

Before Lizzy left, she clutched Leanna’s hand and was very reluctant to let go. It was evident that she adored Leanna very much.

After sending Lizzy to her car, Leanna finally retracted her gaze. She was just about to head back to the studio when she noticed Aidan’s presence upon turning around. She was unsure when he had come out, but he was currently standing in front of the conference room with one hand in his pocket, staring down at her without a single word.

For some inexplicable reason, she somehow felt guilty under his watchful eyes.

She reached out to stroke her nose and took a few steps forward. “President Pearson, you haven’t had lunch, have you? I haven’t eaten either. Would you like to join me for lunch?”

Yet, Aidan merely snorted through his nostrils as he strode forward in his long legs.

He walked ahead as he replied, “It looks like not only do men love you but the elderlies as well.”

As soon as Leanna heard that, she conveniently replied, “Of course! I’m so pretty, smart, and capable. Everyone would love me, of course. They’d be blind not to!”

Aidan paused in his tracks and turned to look at her. Is she attacking me with innuendo?

Revealing a wide smile, Leanna looked rather innocent at the moment.

As they shared their meals together, Leanna brought up. “By the way, how’s Ms. Fletcher doing recently? I should be free at the end of the month, so I plan to head back and visit her. President Pearson, would you like to come as well?”
