Chapter 582 Don’t You Have to Change My Pants?
Leanna walked over and touched his forehead. She realized it was burning hot and frowned when she
saw his hair and pillow wet. Did he sleep without drying his hair? she thought. Then, she opened the
window to let the fresh air in. "Aidan? Wake up. I'm sending you to the hospital." She attempted to
wake the man up.
However, Aidan didn't respond and only grabbed her hand. Leanna tried to get her hand out but to no
avail. How does he have such a firm grip when he is sick? Speaking of which, I don't think I can get him
to the hospital.
Thinking about it, she used her other hand to take her phone and dialed Jonathan's number. "Aidan
has a fever. If you are done with the meeting, I need you to come over and send him to the hospital. I
can't do this alone."
"The meeting might extend till late at night," Jonathan said in a low voice. "I'll call President Pearson's
private doctor over. Please take care of him, Miss McKinney." Before Leanna could refuse, Jonathan
immediately hung up the phone.
When did I promise that I would take care of him? Leanna was lost for words.
She sighed and looked at Aidan, who ran a temperature, while pursing her lips. Then, she put away her
phone, grabbed a tissue packet from her purse, and wiped his sweat. "Serves you right for getting a
cold. After all, who sleeps without drying their hair?" she muttered.
After that, she reached under the blankets and was not surprised that the bed sheets and his clothes
were soaked. "Can you get up, Aidan? Go and sleep on the couch while I change the sheets for you,"
she said.
At that moment, Aidan's eyelashes fluttered. After some time, he opened his eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Did you hear me?" Leanna waved her hand in front of him.
Looking at her, Aidan opened his mouth and said hoarsely, "Why are you here?"
"I was just passing by," Leanna said calmly, using his usual excuse. Then, she paused momentarily
before saying, "The doctor will be here any minute. Go and lie on the couch…"
Before she could finish her words, Aidan closed his eyes. "I don't have the strength to do it."
"That's why I'm helping you. Hurry up. Stop lying here." As Leanna spoke, she pulled him with both her
arms. Is he usually this heavy? she thought as she struggled.
Just as she was about to pull him up with all her might, Aidan suddenly retrieved his hand. At that
moment, Leanna was unprepared. Her body went forward due to the momentum, and she lay on top of
him. Before she could get up, Aidan wrapped his arm around her waist tightly.
"I thought you didn't have the strength to do anything." Leanna gritted her teeth.
"I don't need any strength to do this. You fell on your own."
"Let go of me," said Leanna.
"You're ruthless. How can you do this when I'm this miserable?"
"You know it too, right? So, stop fooling around."
Aidan slowly opened his eyes and locked eyes with her. "I'm scared you will leave as soon as I let you
go."
Well… You don't have to put it that way… Leanna sighed. "I promise I won't go. I'm just going to
change the sheets. If you want to lie there, so be it. I'll let Jonathan…" Before she finished her words,
she felt Aidan removing his hand from her waist.
Then, she got up. After such an event, she was hot and tired.
Slowly, Aidan sat up and curled his legs. "My head is spinning," he said in a low voice.
"Let it spin, then," replied Leanna.
Just as she headed to the closet to look for clean sheets, Aidan grabbed her. "I thought you said you
weren't leaving."
"I…" Forget it. I'm sure he will forget it again. Thinking about it, Leanna looked at him and asked, "Can
you walk?"
"No."
Hearing his words, she reached out and pulled him up. "I'll help you to the couch."
Aidan grabbed her hand and stood up. Just as Leanna breathed a sigh of relief, Aidan grabbed her
shoulder and fully leaned against her. Before she could say anything, Aidan spoke up. "Sorry. I can't
stop my head from spinning."
Leanna didn't know what to say.
After some time, she finally took Aidan to the couch. After that, she returned to the room and took off
the sheets. She turned around and looked at him, who was lying on the couch while covering his eyes
with an arm. "Take some rest and change your clothes," she said while giving him a set of clean
clothes.
Aidan hummed in response but didn't budge.
When Leanna saw no extra sheets in his closet, she went to her house to take the sheets. She entered
the room and saw Aidan sitting on the couch shirtless. He was zoning out as he stared into the void.
"What are you doing?" Leanna could feel herself losing patience.
When Aidan heard her voice, he looked at her and said hoarsely, "I thought you left me."
Leanna took a deep breath and calmed herself. "I was just getting the bedsheets. Hurry up and change
your clothes."
"I'm dirty." Aidan frowned.
Hearing his words, Leanna recalled that he was a clean freak. If he got changed without showering,
Leanna felt he might choose to die.
Before she could say something, she saw spots of blood on the bandage wrapped around his right

it on the table, wrung the cloth, and gave it to him.
Aidan glanced at it but didn't take it. Instead, he closed his eyes.
"I thought you said you were dirty. Wipe yourself and wear your clothes. Are you trying to make yourself
even more miserable?" she said.
"I can't raise my hand. I don't have any strength in me," he replied. "It's fine. Just go back to work and
leave me alone. If I'm lucky enough, someone might send me to the hospital. If not, I might as well die.
After all, I'm an unlucky man. My wife and son don't care about me."
When Leanna heard his words, she felt the urge to throw the towel at him. He didn't do anything right,
yet he thinks he is being mistreated.
"Don't move, and shut up," Leanna warned as she walked over and helped him.
During the process, Aidan said nothing and sat still. Leanna avoided his injuries and briefly wiped him.
After tiring herself out, she put down the towel. "Done. Now, wear your clothes."
"It's done already?" Aidan opened his eyes.
"What else do you want?"
"Don't you have to change my pants?"
Hearing his words, Leanna turned and looked him dead in the eye. She felt that he was pushing his
luck.
Looking at her reaction, Aidan knew he had to stop. "I can do the rest on my own."
Leanna ignored him and went to change the bed sheets. After she was done, Aidan also changed into
a new set of clothes.
At this moment, the doorbell rang. Leanna put the sheets in the washing machine and said, "It must be
the doctor. Lie down while I open the door."
As Aidan watched her get to the door, he raised his eyebrow and smiled.
