Chapter 544

Aidan looked at the woman on the bed and licked his lips. Several moments later, he lowered his head and continued with his work. As time passed, Leanna was soon heard breathing stably. Aidan got to his feet and turned off the lights, leaving only the bedside lamp on.

While standing beside the bed, he gazed at Leanna for a moment before he gently lifted one side of the pillow and pulled out the drawing. When he saw a tortoise drawn on the piece of paper, he was speechless.

Annoyed, he bent his back and pinched Leanna’s nose, and it wasn’t until she found it hard to breathe that he released her. He whispered, “You’re such a heartless woman.”

Leanna rubbed her nose. Perhaps feeling a sense of discomfort, she turned over and continued sleeping. Aidan stuffed the piece of paper back under the pillow and entered the bathroom.

When Leanna woke up the next morning, the sky was still pretty dark. As she looked at the man while he got changed, she rubbed her eyes and sat up. “Are you going to work so early?”

Aidan replied, “I’ll only be able to pick you up in the afternoon when I finish my work early.”

“I told you I can—”

Aidan stuffed a tie into her hands. “Since you’re awake, do something for me.”

Leanna pursed her lips and moved a little. Refusing to leave the bed, she kneeled on it and wrapped the tie around the man’s neck. Then, she pulled him closer to herself and muttered, “I’m only staying in the hospital for several days, but you’ve moved so many of your things here.”

Aidan smiled and draped his arms around the woman’s waist. “I’m glad you’re aware of it. If I fall ill in the future, I want you to stay by my side all the time as well.”

“What nonsense are you spouting? I’ve never seen anyone hoping they’d fall ill.” When Leanna was done tying the tie for him, she sat back down on the bed. “If you’re busy with work in the afternoon, I…”

After pondering for a moment, she decided to make a concession. “You can ask Jonathan to pick me up.”

Aidan lowered his figure and landed a kiss between her brows. “Don’t worry. I’ll be coming. Just wait for me here.”
