Chapter 153 Easily Misunderstood

Leanna was long gone when Zoe woke up, much to her horror. She shot up and searched the room,

but her friend was nowhere to be seen. She barged out of the room and was about to ask the nurses if

they saw Leanna, but Aidan was the first thing she saw. She cursed him silently, but this was not the

time to argue with him. “Nana’s gone, Mr. Pearson!” she quickly said.

Aidan stopped in his tracks, and his face fell. He turned to the nurse behind him. “I need to see the

security footage.”

The nurse took them to the surveillance room, but the cameras only saw Leanna coming out of her

room and wobbling into the emergency exit. After that, it was like she vanished.

Zoe frowned. She muttered, “She can’t have gone far. Look at her. She’s wobbling. I hope she’s not

passed out somewhere.”

Jonathan said, “Our men have been keeping a close eye on the exit, but they didn’t see the madam.”

In other words, Leanna must still be in the hospital.

Aidan pursed his lips and took two steps back, then left the room. Zoe called out to him, but when she

poked her head out the door, he was already gone.

He went to the rooftop, and as expected, Leanna was there. She was holding the guardrail, though she

was still wobbling from the wind. It was like she would fall the very next moment. Aidan approached her

slowly. “What are you doing, Leanna?”

Leanna looked ahead. “What brings you here, Mr. Pearson?” She did not even look back, and the wind

distorted her voice.

“I’m asking the questions here.”

Leanna chuckled and answered, “What do you think I was going to do? Jump down from the rooftop?

You worry too much. I wouldn’t have come this far if I’m that weak.” She looked up. “I was just trying to

get some fresh air.”

“Do you have any idea how serious your condition is?”

“Yeah. I’m an inch away from death.”

Aidan stood behind her and took his suit off. He draped it over her and purred, “That’s enough, Leanna.

Get back to your room.”

Leanna turned around and smirked at him. “Hey, what if someone saw that, Mr. Pearson? They might

take it the wrong way. That’d be bad, don’t you think?”

Aidan was not even fazed. He stared straight back at her. “Take what the wrong way?”

“I dunno. They might think that you actually like me.”

“I never said I didn’t like you.”

Leanna laughed. Yeah, but your love is worthless to me.

Aidan said, “I told you I can marry you if you want.”

“And stuff me back into that cage? You don’t like me, Aidan. You’re just used to my servitude. You’re

used to my submission. You’re used to—”

Aidan held her hand and stopped her from talking. “Have a heart, Leanna. I’m not that evil.”

“Wrong again, Mr. Pearson. I don’t have a heart.”

Aidan pursed his lips for a long while. “What do you want?”

“What do I want?” Leanna muttered under her breath, and her eyes glossed over. What do I want? So

what if I do have something I want? It’s not like I can pick and choose anyway.

Aidan said, “The baby’s gone, and you can’t change that. How much longer do you want to dwell on

that?”

Leanna heard that, and she refocused herself. She stared at him in silence for a long time, and she

finally smiled. Ah, I see. He doesn’t care about this. He wanted this. He doesn’t understand. He will

never understand me. She shook his hand away and leaned against the guardrail. “You can’t give me

what I want, Mr. Pearson. If you have so much time, spend it with your fiancée, not me.”

Aidan looked at her, his face deadpan. She forced herself to take two steps, but her body was at its

limit. She felt everything turn black, and she fainted. Aidan caught her and carried her in his arms, then

ran down the stairs.

Zoe was the only one around her when Leanna woke up, and she was in tears. When she saw Leanna

opening her eyes, she held her hand. “Don’t run off on me like that anymore, Nana. The doctor said

you’re in no state to move. If anything happens to you, you might…”

Leanna said, “Don’t worry. I was just trying to clear my head, and now it’s squeaky clean.”

Zoe nodded, though she was sobbing. She almost had a heart attack when Aidan came back with a

bloodstained Leanna.

Leanna looked outside the window. “How long was I out?”

“Three days.” Zoe said, “And Ron’s awake. He’s in a regular ward now. I asked the nurses, and they

told me nobody came to see him.”

Leanna said, “That’s none of our business now.” Leanna was slowly healing up over the week. She

was looking a lot more energetic, though she was still pale. However, a guest came uninvited today.

Georgina stood outside the ward, smiling. “May I come in, Miss McKinney?”

Leanna was not surprised she came. She nodded.

Georgina placed the flowers on the nightstand. She said, “I talked with the doctors. They said you’re

healing well. You’ll be out in no time.” She continued, “I’m sorry I took so long to visit you, Miss

McKinney. It’s not easy getting into this hospital.”

Leanna smiled. She did not engage with her about that. She was not interested in why everyone was

finding it hard to get into this hospital, nor was she keen on finding out what Georgina was implying.

Georgina looked at Zoe, who was on high alert. “We’ve met before, haven’t we? At Lux.”

Zoe nodded. “I’m a photographer there,” she said, uncaring and cold.

“I see. I’m trying to get some photos done lately—” She realized she should not bring that up around

Leanna and reorganized her words. “I’d like you to take the photos if it’s fine.”

Zoe said, “No, it’s not fine. I’m quitting my job. You’ll have to get another photographer for that, Miss

Crossley.”

“I see.” Georgina looked a little disappointed. She looked at Leanna. “I need to talk with Miss McKinney

alone. Can you leave us for a moment?”

Zoe did not budge. She was about to say no, but Leanna said, “Go ahead, Zoe.”

“I—”

“Get me some fruits, will you?”
