Chapter 274

The young woman looked at Aidan, who glanced to the side. She quickly excused herself. "MissMcKinney, I happen to have something to do right now. Could you help me take care of the child? I willbe back soon."

Leanna immediately nodded. "Sure."

The young woman pushed the stroller over and added, "Everything is in here. Sorry for troubling you."

With a smile, Leanna replied, "Don't worry about it."

After the young woman left, Aidan said, "There's an empty bench over there."

Leanna followed his line of sight and saw a resting area next to the children's playground.

She walked over with the child in her arms, sat down, and held a toy for the little guy. "When did youvisit their house, President Pearson?"

Aidan replied indifferently, "When you and Elijah were dating."

She was speechless. Couldn't he talk properly? What a weird person.

Leanna ignored Aidan and entertained the little guy in her arms with the toy. Compared to the last time,the little guy seemed heavier while his little face appeared rounder, looking more lively. After a while,the little guy began to squirm in Leanna's arms, and he seemed hungry.

After grabbing an insulated bottle in the stroller, she struggled to open it, so she handed it to Aidan andsaid, "Help me unscrew it."

He took it, took the bottle of milk powder from the stroller, and directly mixed the milk powder in thebottle. Watching his skilled and natural movements, Leanna was a little lost. Undeniably, he might be…a good father.

After shaking the bottle lightly, he met her gaze and his brows rose. "Do you want to have some too?"

Leanna took a deep breath and didn't even want to say a word to him. She took the bottle from hishand and gave it to the little guy.

An old lady sat opposite them with her grandson and smiled when she saw them. "You're a lovelycouple. It's such a rare sight for young couples to bring their children out to play together."

The old lady next to her, who was also bringing her granddaughter out to play, chimed in, "Exactly.Most couples leave their kids to their grandparents!"

"This child has a stunning appearance. Indeed, the genes of the parents are really important."

Leanna was slightly embarrassed by their praises and explained, "This isn't my child. His mother justleft for a while, so I'm helping her to take care of him."

The old lady who spoke at the beginning exclaimed unexpectedly, "That's not your child? But his noseand eyes look like you, though, so I thought—"

Aidan then uttered lightly, "Good-looking people are all alike."

The madam chuckled, "That makes sense."

The old lady with the granddaughter then urged, "Hurry up and have a child with your husband. Youcan't waste such good genes."

"He isn't—"

"I'll do my best."

Hearing that, Leanna turned to glare at him. This b*stard was babbling nonsense again.

As Aidan smirked, his dark orbs lit up.

Not far away, Raymond watched the scene, and his eyes narrowed while he was deep in thought. Justthen, someone tugged at his hands, and a girl's voice sounded, "Dad, Eric wants to go home."

Raymond crouched down without retracting his gaze as he softly said, "Tell Mrs. Moore to bring youhome later. I'm busy."

"But…"

Raymond glanced at her, shutting the little girl up.

After about half an hour, the young woman returned.

She panted and said, "I'm so sorry for coming late. I've been occupied with something urgent."

Leanna smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry about it. We're not busy anyway."

After exchanging brief conversations, the young woman left with the little guy. Leanna stood on the spotand looked at their backs, unable to recover for a long time.

Aidan stood beside her as he shoved one hand in his pant pocket, glancing sideways. "Why are you sosad? I can take you to see him when you want to next time."

Leanna sighed silently, "No, thanks."

"Hmm?"

Leanna looked at Aidan. "No matter what, he's just someone else's child. It's fine that I visit him once ortwice, but how could I come so often?"

Aidan replied, "You're simply overthinking too much. That's why you make yourself so tired."

"You're right. I overthink. You will never know how annoying it is to interrupt someone's peaceful life."

He was at a loss for words.

With that, she picked up her bag and left without looking back.

He walked behind her and said, "I'm not the one interrupting your life. Your life has never been peaceful

all this while. Without me, it will only become worse."

This time, Leanna fell silent. Aidan was speaking the truth, so she couldn't refute his statement. Shemight have been in hell long ago if she hadn't met him at Patheon Club more than three years ago.

He suddenly pulled her wrist. "The elevator is over there."

"Can't I go shopping?"

Aidan laughed but didn't let go of her hand. "Of course, you can."

She struggled a few times but could not break free of his grasp.

Just when Leanna was complaining inwardly, Aidan uttered without warning, "Leanna, this is thesecond gift I'm giving you."

She was taken aback as she asked subconsciously, "Second gift?"

"For our second wedding anniversary."

She parted her lips, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Aidan stated, "When I give your third gift, should you forgive me by then?"

Leanna didn't answer him. It was the first time she heard someone asking for forgiveness, like it was agiven.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, he added, "Or it can be brought forward."

Pursing her lips, she looked at him. "Are you expecting me to forgive you?"

"No. I'm very nervous, but you can't tell."

"Perhaps you're too confident in yourself."

He then questioned, "So, what is your answer?"

All of a sudden, Leanna felt Aidan's overbearing gaze. She dared not look him in the eye anymore.

Avoiding Aidan's gaze, Leanna uttered after a while, "I-I don't know."

Aidan's dark orbs were fixed on her as he emphasized word by word, "Don't know what?"

Leanna felt like there was an answer eager to escape her mouth. Nonetheless, her remainingrationality struggled to keep it from slipping out. She admitted her heart was in disarray for a long time.However, she had mustered a lot of courage to leave her previous unfortunate marriage. Leanna neverexpected to go in circles and end up back where she had begun. This was the main reason she couldnot convince herself to start over with Aidan.

In a serious tone, Leanna responded, "I don't know what you're thinking."
