Chapter 298

The next night, Daniel gave Leanna an invitation to the bidder conference.

Leanna sat in the room while putting the invitation next to the pocket watch as she pursed her lips

gently.

Rather than a bidder conference, it is more like a business alliance for Crossley Group. The Crossleys

are probably going to use the conference to consolidate their position, similar to when the Pearsons

were using the Barnetts to enlist their connections. So, all the invitees are probably bigwigs. If I appear

in the bidder conference, I will catch Lloyd and Georgina off guard. However, this approach is too risky,

and I'm still thinking if I should do it.

After a while, Leanna took out her cell phone to call Aidan.

Soon, his low, husky voice came from the other end of the line. "Miss me already?"

Leanna was unamused upon hearing that.

Before she said anything, Aidan continued, "I've told you to move in with me. It would have been so

much more convenient."

Only after a while did Leanna say, "Since you are sleeping, forget it."

"I'm awake. What's the matter?"

Leanna said, "I…"

The words came to her lips, but she didn't know how to say them.

Hearing her hesitation, Aidan said, "Say no more. I'll come to you."

"What? There's no need…"

Before Leanna could finish her words, she could only hear a beep.

Why is this b*stard so smart?

After hanging up the phone, Leanna stood on the balcony. For some reason, her anxiety lessened and

she gradually calmed down.

After half an hour, Aidan called and said, "Come down."

Leanna rubbed her nose and trotted out the door.

As soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw Aidan coming over.

Leanna asked, "Why did you come in?"

Aidan answered upon hearing that, "It's cold outside."

Leanna could not answer him.

After she hesitated for a moment, she said, "S-Still, you can't go up either. Zoe is sleeping."

Aidan curled his lips. "I see. I won't go up, then."

Then, he took Leanna's hand and sat on the chair in the hall.

Leanna subconsciously looked around and was relieved that no one else was there.

When he saw her reaction, he put his arm on the chair behind her and said with amusement, "What are

you nervous about?"

"I…"

Leanna couldn't answer for a moment. Maybe I subconsciously do not want to be seen with him, so no

one would gossip about us. However, that lowlife will be angry if I tell him the truth.

She couldn't figure out how to respond to Aidan's question even after thinking about it for a long time.

Forget it.

Hence, she answered, "Nothing."

Aidan asked again, "What did you want to tell me on the phone?"

When the topic came up, Leanna lowered her eyes as her expression became serious.

He was not in a hurry and waited patiently.

After several minutes, Leanna said slowly, "I think… My birth father might have a great connection with

the Crossley Family. I want to investigate the truth."

"What are you going to do about it?"

"I… I'm going to the Crossley Residence."

He frowned. "How are you going to get there?"

Leanna answered, "Actually, I found a useful clue in the warehouse yesterday. That might be my key to

entering the Crossley Residence."

At that, Aidan pursed his lips slightly. "Have you ever thought that Lloyd would use the same chance to

stop you?"

"Yes. So, I must seize the most advantageous moment to strike first."

"Are you sure?"

She nodded lightly. "I've thought about it clearly."

He said, "Fine, go ahead and do it. I'll accompany you."

"No, you don't have to," Leanna said. "You should leave this matter alone for now. Although Georgina

has been targeting me, she doesn't know we have gotten together. This situation benefits me more;

otherwise, they will try to involve you."

Aidan licked his teeth with his tongue, and only after a moment did he say, "I'm not comfortable with

you going to such a dangerous place by yourself."

Leanna smiled at his response. "I have a way of ensuring that they will think twice before hurting me."

"What is it?"

"You'll see in time."

After she said everything she wanted to say, Leanna got up and wanted to leave. However, before she

could take a step, she was pulled back again by Aidan.

He whispered, "I came running over here in the middle of the night, and you're just going to leave?"

Leanna rolled her eyes. "Oh… Indeed, it's quite late. You should hurry back and rest."

Aidan looked at her without saying a word.

She knew what was going through his head, so she preempted him by saying, "Stop dreaming. There's

no way I'll let you go up there."

"We can leave together."

"No."

"Why?"

Leanna pulled her gaze away and said vaguely, "Nothing. I'm not running around at night."

I don't want to go back to Castor Villa. At least, not now.

Aidan said, "Then, we'll stay at a hotel."

His tone was firm and domineering, giving her absolutely no room for refusal.

Before she could say anything, he pulled her away.

It was already 2.00AM when they arrived at the hotel, and Leanna was so sleepy that she could barely

keep her eyes open. So, she folded her jacket and headed for the sofa. "I'm going to sleep. Good night,

President Pearson."

Aidan looked at her as his temples throbbed. "Go sleep on the bed."

However, Leanna refused without hesitation. "No."

It's obvious what he is thinking about. I might as well have wrapped myself up as a gift for him if I sleep

on the bed.

This time, he didn't ask and directly picked her up from the sofa before heading for the bed.

Aidan said, "You just can't stop doubting me, huh? I've told you many times that I would have done it a

long time ago if I really wanted to."

She retorted, "You're just afraid that I'll call the police."

He stayed silent.

Then, he threw her onto the bed and unbuttoned his collar with one hand before leaning down and

putting his hands on both sides of her. Narrowing his eyes, he said, "You can try. Let's see if I'm afraid."

After being silent for a few seconds, Leanna decided to give in. "I'm sorry. Please pretend I never said

that."

However, Aidan said, "It's too late."

Leanna pouted. I knew the b*stard would take advantage of the situation. Filthy man!

When she was about to get out of his arms, he grabbed her fingers. "That's enough. I won't do

anything. So, let's sleep."

However, she didn't quite believe it. "Really?"

Aidan stared at her with dark eyes. "Of course not."

Leanna stayed silent.

He released her and slowly unbuttoned his shirt before her.

Her ears turned red, and her mouth became dry as she watched him. She hurriedly turned around and

wrapped herself in her blanket without taking off her jacket. "I'm going to sleep."
