Chapter 428

Leanna went home with Aidan. The first thing she saw was the painting, and then the multitude of clothes Jonathan’s men had sent to the house. Her closet was close to bursting with clothes, and she turned around in disbelief. “I’m just going to be here for a few days. This is overkill.”

“Really?” Aidan looked at her. “I think you need more.”

Are you stupid?

Aidan sat down and slowly said, “Are you just going to stay for a few days and never come back?”

The question caught her by surprise. After a short pause, she said, “Um… no?”

“There you have it.”

Leanna pouted. You win. She went into the kitchen and filled the fridge with the things she bought. A moment later, the empty fridge was filled with food. Feels like home. The moment that thought flared in her head, she froze, but a smile tugged at her lips. It’s not too bad.

Aidan came into the kitchen and hugged her from behind, his chin resting on her shoulder. “Why don’t you stay here and don’t go back to the Crossleys?”

Leanna opened her mouth. “But I…” Still haven’t found anything.

“You’ve done enough. You’re the biggest reason Crossley Group is in this predicament.”

“Really?” I don’t believe you.

Aidan cocked his eyebrow. “Of course. Not like I would gain anything from lying to you.”

“Look into your heart, then look into my eyes. Now say that again, word for word,” Leanna said.

Um…

It’s almost Crossley Group’s anniversary. I have a feeling something big is going to happen. Now that she had gotten a part of the company, her mission was basically done. As for Lloyd’s study, she wouldn’t be able to enter it. It used to be locked, and now Georgina was keeping an eye on her just to get any possible dirt on her. Since I can’t get into the study, I probably won’t find anything useful. Staying would be pointless. A moment later, she said, “I have one last thing to settle. After that, I’ll move out.”

A frown furrowed Aidan’s brows. “And what’s that?”

Oh, I’m suffocating. Leanna pried his arms away. “Lloyd promised he’d make Georgina apologize to Louis. She won’t do it when he’s not around, so I have to wait until he’s back.”
