I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Leanna was dumbfounded. Is he gonna stay here for long?

“Mm-hm,” Aidan mumbled. “Put it there.”

Jonathan nodded slightly. After nodding to Leanna in greeting, he turned around and left. As a result,

Leanna choked on her saliva. It took a long time before she finally caught her breath and asked,

“President Pearson… aren’t you going back to Highside?” “What’s the hurry? Do you think the

acquisition of this place and the construction of the resort hotel can be finished in a day or two?”

Leanna shut up. Just pretend that I’ve never asked the question. Naomi didn’t come back throughout

the morning. Aidan was dealing with his work in the yard, whereas Leanna had wanted to return to her

room to draw some designs. However, as soon as she moved her butt, Aidan asked her to pour him a

glass of water. After this happened several times, Leanna got somewhat angry. “President Pearson, I’m

not your servant!” Aidan didn’t even look up. “Is this how you’re thanking me?”

Leanna fell silent for a moment. Then, she replied, “Please wait a minute, President Pearson. I’ll get it

for you right away.” It’s true that there’s no such thing as a free lunch. When it was almost noon,

Leanna finally got a call from Naomi, who told her that after the gathering last night, Wendy had

organized a trip and dragged a bunch of middle-aged and elderly people to a tourist attraction nearby

to have fun. They wouldn’t come back until two days later, so Naomi said, “Leanna, just eat out for the

next few days, and don’t quarrel with Aidan.” Leanna fell silent for a long time. “Ms. Fletcher… have

you guys cleared up the misunderstandings between you two?” “Yeah, they’re almost cleared. Aidan is

just stubborn and yet soft-hearted. You and him… Never mind, let’s talk about it when I come back.”

After hanging up the phone, Leanna looked up at the sky and blinked her eyes, but no tears came out.

If I have sinned, please let me be punished according to law instead of letting me stay alone with Aidan

for two days. After returning to the yard, she said weakly, “President Pearson, let’s eat out. Ms. Fletcher

won’t be back until tomorrow afternoon.” Aidan asked, “Can’t you cook?”

Leanna was rendered speechless for a moment. “The smell of cooking oil makes me want to throw up.”

Upon hearing that, Aidan stopped tapping on his keyboard. The next instant, he closed his laptop,

stood up, and entered the kitchen.

When Leanna followed him inside, she saw him grabbing a fish and taking it out of the bucket. After

washing it in the kitchen sink, he picked up the cleaver nearby and was about to chop it. After

swallowing a bit of saliva, she couldn’t help but ask, “President Pearson, do you know how to kill a

fish?”

“It’s none of your business. Get out.”

“Wait a minute. I think I heard it screaming—”

Aidan was displeased. “Why would you think it’s screaming? It’s not like this fish is a human being.”

Leanna asked tentatively, “How about we eat out?” During their three years of marriage, she had never

seen him enter the kitchen even once. It would be a wiser choice to ask him to kill her than to ask him

to kill a fish.

Aidan looked at her expressionlessly.

Upon seeing this, Leanna gave him an OK sign and left the kitchen. However, shortly after that, she

saw billows of black smoke rising to the kitchen ceiling. Those who had no idea what was actually

going on would think that Aidan was cooking using firewood.

After about 20 minutes, Aidan emerged from the kitchen with a livid face and many black stains of

unknown origins on his expensive white shirt.

As a result, Leanna had to bite her lip with all her might to prevent herself from laughing.

Aidan gave her a frosty look. “Sit there and don’t move,” he said. Then, he turned around and strode

back to his room.

However, Leanna really couldn’t contain her amusement anymore, and she snorted with laughter. It

was her first time seeing Aidan looking so embarrassed over such a long time.

When Aidan came out about ten minutes later, he had changed his clothes. His dark hair was half-

dried; it was obvious that he had just taken a shower.

At the same time, there was another knock on the door. Jonathan had brought the hotel’s head chef

over.

Leanna was at a loss for words. As expected, the rich can do whatever they want. How inhumane.

It was already 1:30 PM when they finally ate lunch. Luckily, they had a late breakfast, so Leanna wasn’t

very hungry either, but she felt somewhat sleepy while waiting for food to be served.

Just when she could hardly keep her eyes open, Aidan said impassively, “Just go to sleep if you’re

sleepy. I’ll wake you up when our meal is ready.”

Upon hearing this, Leanna came round right away. She shook her head with a hollow laugh, saying,

“It’s not necessary. I don’t feel sleepy anymore.”

Aidan let out a sneer and ignored her.

Knowing what to do in such situations, the head chef left after the meal was ready.

After they had lunch, Leanna sensibly went to wash the dishes. However, as soon as she got up, Aidan

said, “Leave it there. I’ll… let Jonathan wash them in a while.”

Finding his behavior shameless, Leanna said, “I’ll do it. Let’s not bother Mr. Stoll for something so

trivial.”

Seeing that she didn’t appreciate his kindness, Aidan replied with a snort, “Whatever.”

Leanna curled her lips and entered the kitchen. She had always had a habit of taking a nap after lunch,

so when she finished washing the dishes and saw Aidan talking to someone over the phone, she went

upstairs right away without telling him about it. She had just accidentally wet her clothes while washing

the dishes just now. As a result, she took a nightgown from the cupboard, but just as she undressed

and was about to change into the nightgown, the bedroom door suddenly opened.

Aidan said, “Lean—”

Leanna was rendered speechless. Becoming angry with embarrassment, she grabbed the pillow on her

bed and hurled it at him.

Finally, Aidan closed the door.

Leanna quickly slipped on her nightgown and dashed out of her room. “President Pearson, could you

please knock on the door before entering someone else’s bedroom?!”

Leaning against the wall next to the door, Aidan looked at her with his head tilted to one side. “I never

enter someone else’s bedroom.”
