Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 789 It's Your Fault

Leanna didn't know if she had lost weight recently, but due to the traditional medicine she had been taking and all the things she had on her plate, she didn't feel like eating much lately.

A few seconds later, she came up with an excuse. "I'm on a diet. It seems like I've made some progress. Haha..."

As she spoke, Leanna met Aidan's gaze again. His expression seemed cold, and his thin lips slightly pursed, showing no response to her joke.

It was quite scary.

Leanna poked his chest with her finger and whispered, "What's wrong? Aren't you hungry?"

After a while, Aidan spoke up. "You said you were hiding something from me. Tell me about it."

While hesitantly withdrawing her hand, she said, "But you also—"

"I've told you everything, so now it's your turn."

Leanna had forgotten about that.

She turned around to get a plate. "It's nothing important, and it's not shocking or terrifying either. Let's just... I don't want to talk about it right now."

But Aidan grabbed her wrist. "Why aren't you participating in Fashion Week?"

Leanna paused for two seconds, then turned to look at him. "A lot has happened recently, and I'm too busy. I don't want to tire myself out..."

"Do you think I would believe that?"

Leanna sighed and retorted, "There's nothing I can do if you don't believe me."

Aidan clearly had no intention of joking with her. His expression was serious. "Speak properly."

It had been a long time since Leanna had seen him behave this way. She knew he wouldn't act out solely because she wasn't participating in Fashion Week.

After giving it a thought, Leanna suddenly realized something. "Did you bump into Zoe? What did she tell you?"

Aidan rebuked, "Don't worry about her and just tell me."

It might be because she was suffering from the pain of taking medicine and getting injections recently that had lost her appetite. Also, she had been suppressing a vague anxiousness and unknown anger inside her.

When she noticed how bad his tone and attitude were, her temper instantly flared up, and she threw away the things in her hand. "Forget it, I won't serve you anymore."

With that, she shook off Aidan's hand and went straight back to the bedroom.

Aidan watched her walk away and felt his temple twitch. Just as he was about to follow her, he saw the ice residue inside the trash and remembered the box that Leanna had blocked from his view not long ago.

He furrowed his brows and went to open the refrigerator.

Besides some fresh fruits and vegetables, there was a white foam box in the corner.

...

After returning to the bedroom, Leanna lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

She felt a surge of emotions overwhelming her.

It felt like there was a fire burning inside her.

She was annoyed.

So, she pulled the blanket over her head and fell asleep.

Leanna didn't know how long she had been half asleep, but she felt someone hugging her from behind.

Though half asleep, she didn't forget that she was angry, so she kicked him and moved away from him.

Soon, the person behind her hugged her again. He held her tighter than before and used his long legs to trap her in his embrace, rendering her unable to move.

That woke Leanna.

She said unhappily, "Let go."

Aidan whispered, "I'm sorry. It's my fault."

Leanna retorted, "When did you have such a realization?"

"I'm sorry for my bad attitude just now. Don't be angry, Honey. Okay?"

But Leanna still refused to talk to him.

Aidan coaxed her, "Let's get up and eat."

"I'm not hungry."

"But I am."

"What does that have to do with me?"

Without replying, Aidan scooped her up in his arms.

Leanna felt weightless for a moment and yelled in shock, then glared at him, "What are you doing?"

Aidan carried her out of the bedroom and brought her to the dining table, where there were all kinds of her favorite food.

Although she had no appetite recently, seeing these dishes made her drool.

After placing her on the chair, he coaxed her, "Eat, or it'll get cold."

Leanna pouted. "Did you invite Jonathan over again?"

Aidan sat opposite her and said lightly, "I bought them."

Hearing that, Leanna paused with her utensils in hand.

Did he buy these?

After glancing at the food on the table, she realized they were all greasy and spicy foods typically sold in small restaurants.

It was hard to imagine that he, a neat freak and picky eater, would go to several places just to buy these for her.

Many of them were dishes he had forbidden her to eat before.
