Chapter 350

Forty minutes later, the car stopped in front of a residential building. Leanna sat in the car, looked left and right, and realized she was parked in the same spot where Aidan had brought her previously. Then, she opened the door and got out of the car. The community was very large, and there were many people, so she had no clue where to start. Thus, she found a place with a good view, sat on the bench, and waited, which was the most straightforward but inefficient method.

She couldn’t ask Aidan, as he would definitely not tell her. Moreover, he would take precautions against her, which would be ineffective. She might as well try her luck like she was doing now, just in case it worked.

Hence, she just sat motionless, staring at everyone who came in and out of the community. Time passed minute by minute, and soon, the sky gradually darkened. She took out her phone and looked at it, then sighed silently; it seemed she still had no good luck. She put her bag on her back and turned around, but she had just taken a few steps when she saw a figure walking toward her.

Leanna stopped to take a better look, and sure enough, it was the young woman Aidan had taken her to see at the mall last time. Noticing her stare, Celia looked over and was surprised for a moment, but she was actually more baffled instead. “Miss McKinney?”

Leanna approached and nodded at her. “Hello.”

Celia said, “Miss McKinney, why—”

Leanna interrupted, “I happened to be doing something nearby and passed by here. I remembered that Aidan brought me here last time and said that you lived here, so I stopped by to have a look. I didn’t expect to meet you by chance.”

She glanced at what Celia was holding in her hand. “Did you just buy the groceries? Are you going back?”

Celia reacted and replied, “Yes… I just came back from buying groceries.”

Leanna smiled. “Your bags look quite heavy. Let me help you. I bought something for the little boy too. I would like to go up and see him.”
