I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 478

Leanna shook her head. "Since he knew about it before I did but chose to keep quiet, he must have had his

reasons."

"Are you saying that you've forgiven him?"

"He didn't do anything that hurt me, so there's nothing for me to forgive him about."

She was also relieved that they hadn't revealed the secret all along. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to imagine

how things would turn out if Louis knew about it.

If that happened, it might put everyone in an awkward situation.

Aidan probably saw through her thoughts, so he frowned slightly and said, "You just need to know what you want to

do. You don't have to consider everybody's feelings."

Leanna patiently repeated, "Louis is my brother, and he's also my only—"

"Leanna, it doesn't matter if he's the only one or one of the many. You need to know that you need to prioritize

yourself; the others come after. There's nothing wrong with living for yourself just once."

At this moment, she parted her lips, seemingly wanting to rebuke him, but before she could say anything, he

continued, "Do you know why you are under so much pressure? It's because you always care about others' feelings,

and that causes you to overthink things. That's why you're living a tiring life."

"I don't always care about others' feelings. I just don't want to let Louis…"

"He's already 20. He's an adult. If he can't even accept and digest this little matter, do you think everything you've

done for him is worth it?"

After some time, she said softly, "But that's what I want to do. No one is more important to me than Louis. If I need

to choose one person in my life, I'll only choose him."

"Not even me?" He lifted his brows.

Hearing that, she looked him in the eyes and said softly, "Why must you invite humiliation upon yourself?"

Aidan had no comeback for that. After he turned off the light, he said, "It's time to sleep."

Leanna blinked in the dark. "Are you mad again?"

"No." His emotions at that moment couldn't be discerned from his voice.

"Why did you ask such a question when you already know the answer? Also, didn't you ask me to prioritize myself?

I'm just following my heart."

Right then, he scoffed. "Huh."

When she saw him like that, a smile tugged on her lips, and it was evident that she was in a better mood. She no

longer rejected the idea of Alice following her anymore and even said, "I want to go shopping tomorrow. What time

will Alice be here?"

"She'll be here when you wake up."

"Oh." This b*stard talks like there's dynamite in his mouth.

That night, she couldn't sleep at all, unsure if it was because she had slept too much these two days or because her

mood had suddenly improved. And with that powder keg, which was about to explode at any time, sleeping right

next to her, she couldn't help teasing him.

"President Pearson," she said softly.

Yet, Aidan ignored her.

Seeing that, Leanna moved into his arms and raised her hand to poke his waist. "Are you asleep?"

The man beside her did not react.

"Never mind, then," she said.

Suddenly, someone grabbed her hand in mid-air, and a man's voice could be heard. "What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing, it's just that I can't seem to fall asleep. I want to talk to you, but you look tired. You should sleep. Good…"

Before she could finish her sentence, her lips were blocked.

The man who lay beside her a moment ago was on top of her all of a sudden. Even in the dark, danger could be

sensed from his gaze.

He said, "Don't sleep if you can't."

…

Leanna was slightly regretting her actions; she knew that Aidan was a vengeful man, but she still gave herself up to

let him get his revenge after provoking him. Indeed, she had shot herself in the foot.

It was already noon by the time she woke up the next day, and Aidan had already left for work.

When Leanna went shower, she looked at the marks Aidan had left on her body and couldn't help clicking her

tongue. I need to change into something that can cover my neck.

As soon as she left the bedroom, she could smell a delicious aroma.

Meanwhile, when Alice heard the noise, she came out of the kitchen with a smile. "Hi, Madam. Lunch will be ready

soon. Please wait for a little while."

"Okay." Leanna smiled.

She walked to the dining table and poured herself a glass of warm water. Then, with her hand propped on the table,

she sat on the chair slowly. That b*stard is such a monster.

While Alice was busy preparing her meal in the kitchen, Leanna texted Zoe.

'Zoe, are you at the studio?'

Zoe's reply came within seconds. 'Yeah. What's up?'

Leanna responded, 'Let's go shopping if you're free in the afternoon.'

The studio was not hectic these days, and Zoe didn't have much to do. She didn't want to just stay in the studio

either, so she agreed to it at once.

Just as Leanna finished texting Zoe, Alice came out of the kitchen with a tray in her hands. "Sorry to keep you

waiting, Madam. It's already noon. You must be starving. Quick, dig in," she said while pouring Leanna a bowl of

stew.

After that, Leanna used both her hands to take the bowl. "Thank you for coming all the way here."

"Don't say that, Madam. The Castor Villa is under renovation these days. Master has let me rest for such a long

time, but he still pays me as usual. I feel bad about that. I've been bored from staying at home, so it's my pleasure

to come to take care of you," Alice replied.

After Leanna finished half of the stew, she asked, "Is Castor Villa… being renovated right now?"

"Yes. I went there yesterday, and it looks completely different than before. There are many plants in the garden,

and the house's color palette is so much warmer." As Alice spoke, she tried probing, "Madam, you'll move in with

Master after the villa is renovated, right?"

"Maybe." Leanna had a faint smile on.

When Alice noticed that Leanna didn't want to talk about this, she didn't continue asking and went to clean the

kitchen.

After Leanna finished her lunch, she lay on the couch again for a while. When she felt that she had regained her

energy a little, she texted Zoe and got ready to leave.

Just as she reached the underground garage, Aidan's driver walked over to her. "Madam, President Pearson has

assigned me to drive you around for these few days."

Hearing that, she didn't say much since Aidan had already sent the driver over, which meant that he had planned

everything. It wouldn't matter even if she complained.

When the car gradually left the underground garage, the sun slowly appeared in front of their eyes. The weather is

quite nice today.

As soon as the car arrived at the mall, Leanna could see Zoe standing at the entrance from afar. As such, she

turned around and said, "Alice, my friend is already here. You can find a place to sit downstairs. I'll call you when

I'm done."

"Okay, no problem." Alice nodded.

Aidan had instructed Alice to keep Leanna company and take care of her so that she wouldn't be alone. Now that

Leanna had a friend with her, she didn't need to follow along.
