Chapter 557

When Leanna arrived at the Pearson Group, Aidan was in the middle of a meeting, and Jonathan was nowhere to be found. Thus, she waited in Aidan’s office.

She received a message from Zoe and Daphne at 7:00PM informing her that they had arrived while Louis was still stuck in traffic and would be there soon.

After reading the message, she was about to walk out to inquire when Aidan’s meeting would be over when the office door was suddenly pushed open.

“Have you been waiting a long time?” Aidan inquired as he entered the room on his long, slender leg.

“Not at all,” Leanna replied with a grin as she put away her phone. “Is there anything else you need to do today?”

“Nope.”

“Well, how about I bring you somewhere?”

Aidan raised his eyebrows and asked, “Did you come for a date?”

“You can think of it that way,” she said, grabbing his hand and leading him out. “Hurry up. Stop dawdling.”

The elevator doors opened, and she was about to step inside when a man said, “President Pearson, the culprit has been brought back. We—”

When Keaton caught sight of Leanna, he abruptly paused mid-sentence, stepped aside, and straightened up.

However, Aidan acknowledged him with a quiet hum but said nothing.

They entered the elevator, and when the doors closed, Leanna asked softly, “What happened?”

As he held her hand, he casually replied, “Nothing much. The company lost a document. He was in charge of finding the employee who did it.”

“Is it serious? Maybe we shouldn’t go.”

“It’s not that serious. They’ll handle it.”

“Okay.”

When they exited the building, it was still raining. Once Leanna had directed the driver to their destination, she pulled out her phone and started browsing for something special for Aidan. However, after a lengthy search, she found nothing of interest. Given that he is a picky man, what will make him happy?

She was engrossed in her search when he gently rapped her head with his knuckles. “What are you looking at? You’ve been at it for quite a while.”
