I Will Take Good Care of You in the Future Intended to save money for her future child, Leanna wassuddenly saddled with a massive debt. For this, she could not tell if the b*stard was generous or stingy.Say he’s generous… But he even made sure to guard before my hospital bed until I had repaid thedebt!! Say if he’s stingy… But he did pay nearly ten million in exchange for my freedom as a designer…
As much as the situation looked favorable on the surface, the debt still returned to her, henceconcluding that Aidan was both generous and stingy. … After Leanna was gone for a long time, Aidanrealized that he had been deceived by her once again. She was such a cunning and calculated woman.There’s no way she would give up her hands. This is all just a ruse. Then, he made an internal phonecall to summon Jonathan. “What’s the deal about Mia?” he asked coldly. Jonathan sensed impendingdisaster as soon as Aidan raised the inevitable question. At last, he finally explained the entiresituation. When it came to the end, Jonathan added earnestly, “I was going to tell you last time, but Ididn’t have time. You mentioned that our collaboration with Lux Jewelry was history and that I shouldn’tbring them up…”
At that, Aidan raised his cold eyes. Taken aback by his stare, Jonathan quickly proposed a solution.“President Pearson, I will head to Lux Jewelry right now to clarify.” “There is no need for that.” Now thatLeanna was outrightly cursing at him, she might turn self-righteous all of sudden after knowing aboutthe truth. At least that was what Aidan assumed. Although everything he did was for the sake of LuxJewelry, she would get carried away thinking that this was all for her! Perhaps one day she would bedaring enough to walk over him and do whatever she wanted. Aidan was about to rise to his feet whenhe noticed a medicine bottle left on the couch where Leanna was sitting. Reaching out to retrieve it, he
saw two words on the bottle—folic acid. “Why is she eating this?” He pondered. “It is said that eatingthis during pregnancy can effectively prevent neural tube defects in the fetus,” Jonathan repliedcautiously. At that moment, Aidan’s face sank as he clutched the bottle in his palm, shuddering.Pregnant? Have she and Zayn made such progress already??
After three years, Leanna intends to marry into the Barnett Family using the same method! … Alongthe way home, Leanna was feeling depressed. She pushed open the door when she arrived home.“Baby, you’re back! Surprise!” Confetti was launched into the air as a man was holding a bouquet ofroses in front of her. Speechless she was when she saw that it was Anthony Lester. Similarly, he staredback at her in silence. They were both looking at each other embarrassingly. “I’m sorry, I thought youwere Zoe.” He laughed awkwardly as he slowly put the roses in his hand away. “The magazine hasbeen quite busy recently,” Leanna said before adding, “So Zoe may not be able to return until later.”“Ah… It’s my fault. I wanted to surprise her.” “It’s alright, I won’t tell her. She will be overjoyed to see thesurprise you have planned for her. I should get out of your way then.” “I think I’ll just forget it. If Zoeknew about it, she will give me a lecture,” Anthony utter quietly.
“I just happen to have something to do. Please let Zoe know that I won’t be back tonight.” Leannachuckled. “Then, let me send you off.” “It’s alright. I’ll just hail a cab.” She left wisely after finishing theirbrief talk. Anthony was Zoe’s boyfriend whom she had been dating since university. The couple hadalways gotten along well. He was sent abroad by his company last year with the intention of staying forat least two years, so it appeared that he had returned earlier than scheduled. There must be so muchto say and so much to do after not seeing each other for ages. It would be embarrassing for Leanna tobe their third wheel. Therefore, she found a nearby cafe and began browsing the rental listings.Gradually, the sky had become darker. She stretched her neck and went in search of a restaurant.When she was halfway through her meal, she received a call from Zoe.
“Nana, where are you?” “I’m eating out. Have you returned?” “Yes… That jerk, Anthony took me bysurprise. He nearly scared me to death! My fists were clenched tight because I thought a thief brokein.” Although she complained, it was clear that her tone was pleasant. “Don’t give him a hard time. Let’scelebrate tonight since he’s back,” Leanna proposed as she chuckled. “We’ve been dating for aboutfour or five years. We’re like an elderly couple. What is there to rejoice about? Nana, you should comehome and spend the night. I’ll send him to the hotel.” “Don’t worry, I’ll just stay out tonight.
Your girl doesn’t wanna be a third-wheel here…” “What are you talking about… Then you have to becareful when you’re staying out by yourself. Send me the address of your hotel later,” Zoe said a littleshyly. “Okay. Go get busy.” After Zoe hung up, Anthony wrapped his arms around her waist andworriedly asked, “She won’t come back, will she?” “Why didn’t you tell me when you came back? It’s soembarrassing now,” she mumbled angrily while patting his arm. “I had no idea she lived with us at thetime. I wanted to give you a surprise. I would not have done it if I had known beforehand. Well, it’s allmy fault, baby. Don’t be mad.” She turned around and hugged him. “I don’t blame you, but I’m worriedabout her staying outside alone.” “She’s a grown-up. There’s nothing to be concerned about. Now,enough about her. You haven’t seen me in a long time. Don’t you miss me?” He started fiddling aroundher body. “I was about to ask you. You mentioned that you will only return in at least two years.
Why are you back in less than a year?” A slight change of expression flashed across his face as hetried to gloss it over with a laugh. “It’s because I miss you! I requested it several times to the companybefore they finally agreed for me to return. You don’t know how much I suffered there alone.” It wasdifficult for Zoe to notice the difference in his expression as the light in the living room was switched offto produce a candle-lit scene. “Alright alright, I know you’ve suffered a lot. I will take good care of you inthe future,” she gently soothed. “Not the future. Do it now,” Anthony said eagerly as he kissed her lips.
All that remained in the living room was the flickering candlelight. … Leanna took a bath and lay on thebed after checking in late at the hotel. She took a look at her balance and transferred Aidan every centshe had excluding the money she saved for her rent and daily expenses.\
She also deleted all her Tweets about Aidan which were only visible to Daphne. What’s the point ofinsulting him when I am played by him again after all? She then drank a cup of hot water before goingto bed. She wanted to take some folic acid but could not seem to replace it anywhere in her bag.
Sitting on the bed with her bare strength, she felt her nerves twitching and hurting. After dropping byseveral locations today, she had no idea where her medicine had gone. More importantly, Aidan’s officewas one of them. As such, she decided to try calling him after calming down for a while. Afterunearthing Aidan’s phone number from the blacklist, she dialed it from the hotel’s landline but it took along while to connect. “President Pearson… It’s me.”
