Leanna picked up the cup and took a sip of water, huffing angrily, "You're not embarrassed at all."
Aidan did not raise his head as he asked, "When did you move?"
Leanna was defeated once again. That b*stard's mouth never spared anyone.
After Aidan was done ordering, he handed the menu to the waiter and turned his head to look at her."Are you sober now?"
Leanna felt that his question was somewhat insulting. "I just had a drink and felt dizzy. It's not like I'mdown and out."
Then, Aidan said, "If your alcohol tolerance is so low, don't drink with others when I'm not aroundanymore."
Leanna was about to part her lips to refute, but she suddenly realized Zoe, sitting across from them,was staring at them with relish.
After Zoe noticed Leanna had stopped talking, she quickly retracted her gaze. "Just pretend I don'texist and don't worry about my feelings at all! I'm just here to eat, and I can't see or hear anything else."
Leanna was speechless once again.
Soon, the dishes were served, which temporarily eased the awkward situation. The meat they ordered
was marinated in a hot and spicy sauce since they wanted it to be spicy. While they happily ate thefood, Aidan sat on the side, drinking water without eating.
After glancing at him, Leanna teased him, "Are you not eating, President Pearson?"
Aidan said indifferently, "Eat your food. Don't worry about me."
"OK."
Withdrawing her gaze, Leanna no longer bothered him.
After a while, the waiter came over with a cart and brought them several snacks on the table. Zoe andLeanna were too stunned to speak. This was the first time they had seen a barbecue restaurantpreparing additional dishes. Money undoubtedly made everything possible.
Aidan raised his head and scanned her before quoting Leanna, "Take it if you want to. I'm not as stingyas you."
Leanna pouted. She didn't even want to eat his food!
What an amazing b*stard he was. He went to a barbecue restaurant and ordered home-cooked food.There must be something wrong with his brain.
After having an additional two pieces of meat, Leanna couldn't speak anymore because of the spice.Seeing that her glass of water was empty, she intended to order another glass of water when Aidansuddenly shoved a glass of milk in front of her. Overwhelmed by the spice, Leanna grabbed the glass
and finished half of it in one go. Sitting across from Leanna, Zoe took a sip of her water in completesilence. She had the impression that she was not here to eat but rather to observe the couple in front ofher display affection in public. Putting aside everything else, that b*stard was still quite attentive to her.It was no wonder that Leanna couldn't accept any other man that came into her heart.
After the barbecue, Leanna felt relaxed and relieved. It had been a long time since she felt this way. Asexpected, the only way to vent one's stress was to have spicy food.
When they left, Zoe secretly glanced at the phone and said, "Nana, my friend just texted me and saidthat something came up, so I'll be leaving now..." After speaking, she waved at Aidan and added,"President Pearson, please send Nana home."
Before anyone could reply to her, she had already run away.
Leanna felt her temples throb, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Turning her head around, Leanna met Aidan's gaze. He then tilted his head slightly and smirked. "Let'sgo."
Sitting in the passenger's seat, she buckled her seatbelt and inquired, "Didn't Mr. Stoll come today?"
"He's on leave."
Leanna muttered, "I thought he didn't have an off day."
Placing his hand on a steering wheel, he glanced sideways and asked, "Do I seem so inhumane toyou?"
"You shouldn't ask me that. Don't you know how others talk behind you?"
"I don't care what they think."
After that, Leanna remained silent. She was afraid that another trap would be set up for her if shecontinued the conversation. Fortunately, Aidan didn't plan to continue embarrassing her but smiled anddrove ahead. After a while, Leanna realized that he wasn't driving in the direction of her home. Soon,the car stopped in front of a mall.
Aidan ordered, "Let's get off."
She looked around but still unfastened her seat belt.
Leanna followed Aidan and asked, "What are we doing here?"
He answered, "Didn't you say that you want to see Zayn? I brought you to see him."
She was speechless. This b*stard was out of his mind!
A few minutes later, they stopped at a children's playground.
Aidan halted in his steps and pointed his chin at Leanna, saying, "Over there."
Following his sight, she looked over. She first saw a group of five to six-year-old children, and then hergaze fell on a baby stroller outside the play area. The stroller looked exactly the same as that in Ms.Fletcher's house. Seeing that, Leanna was a little dazed, and the person lying inside should be the little
guy.
Aidan looked at her and asked, "Aren't you going to go over?"
It took a while for her to recover her thoughts and smile bitterly. "His parents are there. Why would I goover?"
"I can tell them to leave temporarily."
Seeing that the b*stard was about to take action, she quickly grabbed his arm. "Hey, what are youdoing? Don't."
Aidan raised his brows. "Don't want to see him?"
Leanna lowered his head. "Forget it."
There was no point in seeing him anyway. If Leanna and Aidan passed by like that, others might thinkthey were human traffickers.
Then, he said, "He's right in front of you. Don't you feel pity to leave like this?"
Leanna was already struggling in her heart, but she continued talking, slightly annoyed. "Can you stoptalking?"
At this time, a young woman not far away carried the little guy from the stroller. The little guy then layon her shoulders, mumbling. He seemed to have seen Leanna from afar, so he instantly fidgeted alittle. Even the smile on his face widened. When the young lady saw him, she turned around.
Leanna felt a little embarrassed and intended to leave. Still, the young woman walked over with thechild in her arms and immediately inquired, "President Pearson, is this Miss McKinney?"
Leanna was a little surprised when she heard the words, so she looked at the young woman, "Do youknow me?"
The young woman smiled and responded, "President Pearson mentioned you before."
Leanna then looked at Aidan again, her face filled with doubts.
"President Pearson has visited the baby twice and often mentions how much you adore him." Theyoung woman added, "By the way, when the baby was with my mother, it was thanks to you who tookgood care of him."
Leanna smiled lightly. "You're welcome, but I wasn't of much help anyway."
The young woman handed the little guy to Leanna, asking, "Would you like to hold him, MissMcKinney?"
Looking at the child in front of her, she smiled wider and took him in her hands.
