Chapter 543

After a pause, Leanna uttered, “Just like what you said, those are young women. Perhaps the one he’s in love with is—”

“A man?”

Leanna was speechless for a moment before saying, “No, he’s straight.”

Daphne replied with a smile, “I know. I’m just pulling your leg. Anyway, your brother is truly handsome and intelligent, not to mention he’s studying at a top university. Any woman would fall in love with him, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Since it was Louis’ personal affair, Leanna didn’t think she had the right to break it to Daphne. As such, she only nodded gently. A moment later, she said, “Do you have any work arrangements?”

Daphne replied, “There’s nothing much to do. I’ll probably appear in some variety shows, and I’ll be shooting a movie in two months.”

With Daphne around, Leanna wasn’t bored. The entire afternoon went by quickly as the ladies had a joyful conversation. Upon Aidan’s arrival, Daphne tactfully left the place. Aidan entered the ward and asked, “What did you two talk about?”

“Nothing much. It was just casual talk,” Leanna replied. “When will I be leaving the hospital tomorrow?”

“I’ll pick you up in the afternoon; I have a meeting to attend in the morning.”

Leanna said, “It’s fine. I can leave the hospital on my own.”

Naturally, Aidan wouldn’t agree to it. “You’re not going anywhere until I arrive.”

Leanna couldn’t help but murmur, “Will you stop being domineering for once?”

With a milder expression, Aidan said, “I’ll ask your brother to come over and help get you discharged, then.”

Leanna picked up a pillow and hurled it at him. “Stop being ridiculous!”

The man took it with ease as a smile played on his lips. “I have a piece of good news and a piece of bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?”

“Neither.”
