"Whatever," Leanna eventually responded.

"Please give me a secure room," she added. "If anyone sneaks into my room in the middle of the night,I will call the police."

The manager stared back at her, speechless.

He snuck a glance at Aidan to seek his opinion before swiftly replying to Leanna, "Very well, Miss. I willlead you to your room."

She smiled. "It is fine. There is someone else standing right here who can lead the way, right?"

She then walked toward the elevator.

Aidan shoved his hands into his pockets and slowly walked behind her.

He strode into the lift and pressed the button for the top floor.

Jonathan did not follow them into the elevator, so it was only the two of them inside.

She silently stood there with her eyes darting around to study the elevator.

Aidan glanced at her and took a step closer to her. Just as his lips parted to speak, she dashed back tocling to the elevator wall. "Do not try it again, President Pearson," she declared, crossing her arms

before her chest. "Cameras are watching."

He grabbed her hood and dragged her closer to him. "Do you think that is enough to keep me away if Itruly wanted to do something to you?"

"Please mind your words. Do not speak of the law with such disdain. Every word you speak is currentlybeing recorded."

He chuckled. "It is such a shame you did not study law, Leanna."

"That only proves that someone will shine in whatever industry they want to when they are thattalented."

"You would surely come out of a talk show as a winner."

Leanna was rendered speechless by that.

Well, that was not a bad suggestion.

"What are you doing here?" Aidan calmly asked, letting go of her hood.

"There is no rule that states only you may come or that I cannot."

"I have some business to attend to," he stated.

"I..." She was here for a vacation.

She cleared her throat and rubbed her nose, leaving her previous sentence unfinished.

Just then, the elevator doors opened.

She walked out of the lift with her eyes glued to the floor.

She had only taken a few steps when she heard him say, "It is this way."

She paused and took a few deep breaths before swiftly marching in the correct direction.

When she eventually found the room labeled on her key card, she hurriedly unlocked the door, dashedin, then slammed the door shut behind her.

Her actions were done so swiftly that it felt like she was afraid a certain someone would force their wayin.

As he stood before her door, he licked his lips once more.

Soon, Jonathan and the hotel manager appeared to unlock the door next to Leanna's.

He entered the room and said to Jonathan, "Leanna is likely here because she wants to head toUnderwood Lane. Take care of the issues."

"Well, Madam is here now," Jonathan tentatively said. "Do you still not plan on telling her the truth, sir?"

"There is no benefit in letting her know at this time," Aidan replied. "After all, women are such

emotional, troublesome beings."

The moment Leanna knew about the child, she would be overwhelmed by the urge to visit him once ina while.

Too many trips to Weavside would lead to the Pearsons getting suspicious.

"Yes, sir."

Aidan's only wish was for karma to be slower to get back to him.

After Jonathan left the room, Aidan moved to stand before the floor-to-ceiling windows and calledNaomi.

When Naomi heard the order to send the child away, she sighed. "Aidan, let Leanna see him. Nomatter what, he is her son. Don't worry. I will handle everything."

He thought for a moment before responding, "Okay."

He then hung up and threw the phone onto the couch while walking over to the bathroom.

When he stepped out of the shower, his doorbell began to ring.

He flung away the towel he had been holding and calmly walked over to the door. He opened it to replaceLeanna standing on the other side of the doorway.

As for Leanna, she was stunned to see him in such a state.

She did not expect him to be done with his shower so soon and already dressed in a bathrobe soloosely tied that it looked as if it would fall open at any moment.

Suddenly, she felt a twitch in her eyelid. By instinct, she had turned to look away.

He keenly observed every minute detail of her reaction. He smirked, crossed his arms before his chest,and leaned against the door frame. "I did not disturb you with any loud noises, did I?" he askedsolemnly.

She shot a glare at him. "That sounds like some thief who is shifting the blame to someone else just tocause chaos."

"Even if I am a thief, I am a thief who steals hearts."

She was rendered speechless by that.

In fact, his response was so revolting that Leanna nearly puked out last night's dinner.

Did he not replace it embarrassing at all?

Before she could muster a response, Aidan grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her into his room.

"Aidan..."

"Did you come knocking just for a reunion at the doorway?" he asked, interrupting her.

Then, he walked over to the alcohol cabinet to pull out a bottle of whiskey and two cups. He broughtthem over to the couch.

She hesitated for a second before sitting down beside him. "I apologize for my rude behavior just now,President Pearson," she said sincerely.

He crossed his legs and slowly asked, "Just now?"

After she inhaled, she calmly elaborated, "Back in the toilets, I should not have hit you so hard."

"However, you were the one who dragged me into the men's toilets," she continued under her breath.

Aidan stretched his arm out across the back of the couch and chuckled. "Did I have any other choiceback then?"

"The women's toilets were nearby. Why did you not drag me in there?"

He pinched his nose and took a moment to calm down. "Leanna, if I had brought you into the women'stoilets, I would have been an actual pervert."

"Well, you are one anyway."

He shot her a look. "Are you here because the slap was not enough for you? Do you need to vent moreanger out on me?"

Well, that was not really why she was here.

"Here," Leanna said, handing him the ice pack she had been hiding behind her back. "I got this fromthe hotel."

He stared at it. "What?"

"Put it on your cheek and it will be fine in the morning," she replied.

In her mind, she did not hit him that hard. In fact, the slap was just a warning to stop him from goingoverboard. She did not think it would leave a mark on his face.

When Aidan realized what Leanna meant, he leaned backward and stated, "I take responsibility for myown actions."

…

Give this b*stard an inch, and he would run a mile.

Leanna threw the ice pack onto Aidan's lap. "Do as you wish."

She stood up with the intention to leave, but then he grabbed her wrist and tugged her closer.

Caught off-guard, she fell straight into his lap.

At that moment, she felt a sense of deja vu from the way the scene played out.

Before she could ponder further, he placed the ice pack in her hands. "See it to the end. How can yoube so half-hearted?"

She smacked the arm he had curled around her waist. "Let go!"

Aidan raised an eyebrow and lifted his hands in the air to show he would keep his hands to himself.
