Chapter 426

Leanna woke up to the sun glaring down at her. She turned around and rummaged around for her

phone. The moment she looked at the time, she shot up. Eleven? Why didn't my alarm go off?

She hurried out of bed and left the room only to run into Aidan approaching her with a bag in hand. "Ah,

you're awake."

Leanna grumbled, "And you woke up earlier than I did. Why didn't you wake me up?"

"You were sound asleep, so I let you sleep in."

"But I'm running late!"

Aidan asked, "I thought it was your day off?"

Oh. Leanna calmed down. Yeah, it is. It's Sunday. She had been working too much lately, going to her

shop almost every day. She had almost forgotten she had a day off. Leanna yawned and returned to

her room. "I'll catch some z's then."

Aidan wrapped his arms around her. "Nope. It's not every day you get a day off. Wanna go on a date?"

Leanna turned around. "Where? The movies again?"

Um…

A smile tugged at Leanna's lips. Her mood was buoyant, and her sleepiness was gone. She took the

bag of clothes from Aidan and entered her room, but just when she was about to change, Aidan came

in. Leanna quickly covered her chest with her clothes, complaining, "You should have knocked."

"If you think it's unfair, I can let you see me naked." He started unbuttoning his shirt.

Dammit. "Alright, stop!" She turned her back toward him and tried her best to get changed, but her bra

clasp just wouldn't work with her. I can't get it to align.

Just then, Aidan whispered, "Need any help?"

She gave up. Blushing, she said, "Make it quick!"

Aidan cocked his eyebrow and easily clasped her bra up.

Before he could do anything, Leanna scurried off and changed into her clothes. When she was done

changing, she asked, "So where are we going?"

"To the art exhibit."

"What time does it start?"

Aidan looked at the time. "We can have lunch and still have time to get there."

Leonno woke up to the sun gloring down ot her. She turned oround ond rummoged oround for her

"To the ort exhibit."

"Whot time does it stort?"

Aidon looked ot the time. "We con hove lunch ond still hove time to get there."

While Leanna was in the bathroom, someone called Aidan. He picked his phone up from the couch and

exited the room. "Speak."

"Sir, the chairman is confronting Queenie, but she denied ever doing anything and pushed all the

blame on Ron, Georgina, and Violet."

Aidan chortled. He wasn't surprised this happened.

The man said, "The chairman was about to get rid of Queenie, but…"

"But what?"

"Master Justin stopped him."

Aidan grunted. "I see."

"Should we keep an eye on Queenie still, sir?"

"No," answered Aidan. "She sold out Georgina and Violet. They'll handle her."

Now that Queenie dragged those two into this mess, Gordon's going to kill them. He's going to go after

Georgina and Violet. As for Queenie, Elliot will handle her.

Leanna emerged from the bathroom the moment he tucked his phone away. "Did something happen?"

I thought I heard familiar names.

"It's nothing," Aidan said. "Done?"

"Done."

Since it was the weekend, there were a lot of people at the art exhibit. A place that was supposed to be

peaceful and quiet was filled with the noise of people. Not long after they entered the exhibit, Leanna

pointed at one painting in surprise. "Oh, I saw that the last time I was here. It's been years. I didn't think

I'd see it again."

Aidan looked at her. "You've been here before?"

Leanna blinked and looked away nervously. "Y-Yeah."

"When?"

"Back in college."

"With Zayn?" he asked.

Leanna smiled but didn't elaborate. Instead, she went deeper into the exhibit.

Aidan licked his teeth and followed her, commenting calmly, "You had a lot of free time in college, I

see."

Oh, someone's jealous. She grinned. "Nah, but even if I was busy, I still made time for dates with my

crush."

Aidan sneered and kept to himself.

A while later, Leanna saw a familiar figure not far away—it was Zoe. Zoe had seen her as well.

Zoe trotted over to her. "Nana? Gosh, I'd have asked you to come with me if I had known you would be

here. I thought you'd be staying home."

Leanna laughed dryly. "I decided to come on a whim. Did you come with Daniel?"

Zoe looked behind and pouted. "Yeah, but he ran off as soon as we came. He could have said no if he

was busy, but he just had to come and run off on me." A pause later, she said, "Hey, remember that

time when we skipped class in junior year for the exhibit? I saw that painting you loved back then."

Someone blurted, "You ditched class?"

Zoe swiveled around. "Mr. Pearson?"

Leanna coughed and tried to pull her friend away, but Zoe failed to get her message. She curled up a

little. "That was a few years ago. I'm not going to be punished for that, am I?"

Aidan smiled. "I was just asking. Was anyone else with you?"

"What? Who'd ditch class en masse? That's like begging to be found," Zoe said, but she trailed off. She

rubbed her neck and whispered, "What's wrong with him? He's scary."

Leanna wanted to hide in a hole. All she wanted was to tease Aidan, but Zoe came along and exposed

her lies unwittingly.

Aidan said, "I need to go out for a bit. Give me a minute."

Once he was gone, Zoe clicked her tongue. "Men. All we want is some time with them, but they always

manage to find an excuse to leave."

Leanna sighed silently. I should have stayed home and slept in.

Zoe turned her attention to Leanna. "So, that Elliot guy called me this morning."

"He called you?" A frown furrowed Leanna's brows.

"Yeah. He wanted to talk about some sort of partnership. I hung up since he sounded nutty."

Leanna pursed her lips. "He probably came to you because I ignored him."

Zoe said, "Why isn't he going after Queenie? I'm still waiting for the sequel to their feud."
