Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 397

It was impossible to say that Aidan was completely unaffected by this incident. It was just that he had managed to minimize the impact in the span of one night, even going so far as to reverse the situation entirely. Moreover, Gordon could no longer suppress him by using The Designer Competition as leverage.

Nevertheless, the stigma would persist forever if the truth did not come to light.

After Leanna departed from the law firm, she went straight to the Pearson Group.

She arrived just as Aidan came out from a meeting. The atmosphere in the entire building was heavy and lifeless. The employees didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly.

As she was unable to locate Jonathan, she walked over to the president’s office and reached out to knock gently on the door.

Aidan was sitting in front of his desk and reading some documents inside his office. There was no saying whether he had heard the knock on the door earlier.

She softened the sound of her footsteps and walked over. She cleared her throat lightly to announce her presence before she continued solemnly, “President Pearson, should I brew you a cup of coffee?”

Aidan answered coldly without even lifting his head. “Do you even need to ask?”

“Then, should I prepare dinner for you?”

When he heard that, he paused for a moment and slowly looked up. When he caught a glimpse of her, the chill in his black eyes gradually melted away, replaced by warmth. “When did you arrive?”

“I just arrived.” Leanna sat down across from him and probed, “So, do you only plan to drink coffee and not eat?”

Aidan lowered his head, swiftly signed his name on the document, and grunted in reply, “Eating alone is boring.”

She looked at him and couldn’t resist asking another question, “Why didn’t you recognize my voice when I asked you whether you wanted coffee but realized my identity when I asked about dinner?”

He casually replied, “Assistants with such high salaries generally do not practice the foolish behavior of asking so many questions in quick succession.”

She was rendered speechless by his words. Eat sh*t, you b*stard!

He added, “Give me a few minutes.”

“Okay.”
