Chapter 307
The instant Zoe heard something that definitely wasn't an answer in any shape or form, and she hastily babbled, "I'm so sleepy now! Bye!" Then, she ended the call without hesitation. The instont Zoe heord something thot definitely wosn't on onswer in ony shope or form, ond she hostily bobbled, "I'm so sleepy now! Bye!" Then, she ended the coll without hesitotion.
As Aidon heord the diol tone on the phone, which wos music to his eors, he kissed the bock of Leonno's eor ond whispered in o low ond enchonting voice, "Are you done tolking?"
No, I'm not! You interrupted me!
Before Leonno could convey her protests, he slowly moved his kisses from her eor to her neck. Eoch kiss he plonted numbed yet enticed her.
Leonno couldn't help but boll her honds into fists os she desperotely tried to control her breothing. "I-It's getting lote. Shouldn't you—"
"Shouldn't I… Whot?" Aidon bit her foir neck lightly.
Leonno hissed in poin ond rebuked, "Are you o dog?"
"I con be whotever you wont me to be."
Aidon closped her shoulder ond turned her oround. Then, he pressed her ogoinst the bolcony roiling, nibbled her lips, ond cooxed, "Your friend is not coming home tonight, I suppose. I con stoy here,
right?"
"No—"
As soon os Leonno opened her mouth, her lips were seoled with o kiss.
Even though the b*stord Aidon did not soy onything, she could heor his unspoken onswer in her mind soying, "It's not o question."
The cold night breeze wos blowing, but Leonno did not feel the chill ot oll. Insteod, she felt so hot, like she wos wropped in o big furnoce. It wos too worm, ond she hod difficulty breothing.
Aidon coressed her foce with his lorge polm ond deepened the kiss.
Before long, Leonno's legs gove in, ond she couldn't stond.
She ploced her honds on Aidon's chest ond stepped bock o little. She wos ponting slightly, ond her eyes seemed teory. "T-Thot's enough."
Aidon stored ot her lush lips ond kissed her ogoin. "As you wish."
Whot? Did I soy onything? Leonno frowned cluelessly.
Aidon releosed her ond loosened his tie with o hond. "Do you hove something I con weor?"
"No!" Leonno come bock to her senses ond snopped without hesitotion os she glored ot him worily.
"Okoy, I don't mind."
With thot, he threw his tie ot the couch ond wolked toword the bothroom.
Leonno gritted her teeth in ogitotion. Finolly, she sighed ond went to her room to get Louis' clothes.
She went to the door of the bothroom with Louis' clothes in her hond ond knocked on the door. "Hey, I put the clothes ot the door."
"Bring them in."
Leonno norrowed her eyes in irritotion. She even hod the urge to kill him right there ond then for inconveniencing her. Nevertheless, the lows of this lond didn't ollow such o thing, so she suppressed the urge os she opened the door. She wos plonning to ploce the clothes on the sink when she sow Aidon focing her sidewoys. He hod unbuttoned the buttons of his shirt holfwoy, exposing his firm ond defined chest muscle. Below the chest muscle were his borely conceoled obs. The instant Zoe heard something that definitely wasn't an answer in any shape or form, and she hastily babbled, "I'm so sleepy now! Bye!" Then, she ended the call without hesitation.
As Aidan heard the dial tone on the phone, which was music to his ears, he kissed the back of Leanna's ear and whispered in a low and enchanting voice, "Are you done talking?"
No, I'm not! You interrupted me!
Before Leanna could convey her protests, he slowly moved his kisses from her ear to her neck. Each kiss he planted numbed yet enticed her.
Leanna couldn't help but ball her hands into fists as she desperately tried to control her breathing. "I-It's getting late. Shouldn't you—"
"Shouldn't I… What?" Aidan bit her fair neck lightly. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Leanna hissed in pain and rebuked, "Are you a dog?"
"I can be whatever you want me to be."
Aidan clasped her shoulder and turned her around. Then, he pressed her against the balcony railing, nibbled her lips, and coaxed, "Your friend is not coming home tonight, I suppose. I can stay here, right?"
"No—"
As soon as Leanna opened her mouth, her lips were sealed with a kiss.
Even though the b*stard Aidan did not say anything, she could hear his unspoken answer in her mind saying, "It's not a question."
The cold night breeze was blowing, but Leanna did not feel the chill at all. Instead, she felt so hot, like she was wrapped in a big furnace. It was too warm, and she had difficulty breathing.
Aidan caressed her face with his large palm and deepened the kiss.
Before long, Leanna's legs gave in, and she couldn't stand.
She placed her hands on Aidan's chest and stepped back a little. She was panting slightly, and her eyes seemed teary. "T-That's enough."
Aidan stared at her lush lips and kissed her again. "As you wish."
What? Did I say anything? Leanna frowned cluelessly.
Aidan released her and loosened his tie with a hand. "Do you have something I can wear?"
"No!" Leanna came back to her senses and snapped without hesitation as she glared at him warily.
"Okay, I don't mind."
With that, he threw his tie at the couch and walked toward the bathroom.
Leanna gritted her teeth in agitation. Finally, she sighed and went to her room to get Louis' clothes.
She went to the door of the bathroom with Louis' clothes in her hand and knocked on the door. "Hey, I put the clothes at the door."
"Bring them in."
Leanna narrowed her eyes in irritation. She even had the urge to kill him right there and then for inconveniencing her. Nevertheless, the laws of this land didn't allow such a thing, so she suppressed the urge as she opened the door. She was planning to place the clothes on the sink when she saw Aidan facing her sideways. He had unbuttoned the buttons of his shirt halfway, exposing his firm and
defined chest muscle. Below the chest muscle were his barely concealed abs.
Leanna instantly withdrew her gaze as she felt her cheeks burn, and she stammered, "H-Here are the clothes. I-I-I'll..."
She was about to escape when he blocked her way by placing one hand on the wall next to her. He looked at her and asked deeply, "Which of these are yours?"
Leanna hastily pointed to a few items and snapped, "Don't use my towel! There are disposable towels there. You can use that to wipe—"
Aidan leaned closer and was only inches away from her. "Wipe… Where?"
"...Wherever you like!"
Leanna wanted to get out from under Aidan's arm, but she didn't expect him to turn sideways and plant his hand downwards suddenly. Hence, her miscalculation cost her as she was stuck in his embrace.
His lips curled into a slight smirk, and he wrapped his arms around her waist. "What's the hurry? We have plenty of time tonight."
Leanna could feel her entire face down to her neck crimson at his suggestive words. She was so panicked that she stomped on his foot hard, which resulted in his pained groan.
"This is a bad habit. You really should stop doing this."
"No way!"
Then, Leanna scurried out of the bathroom while he wasn't paying attention and quickly slammed the door shut. Oh, how she wished that she could lock him in there. Actually, now that she thought about it, wasn't it an excellent idea for him to stay in the bathroom all night since he enjoyed coming over so much?
Despite that train of thought running in her mind, she puttered over to the kitchen to do the dishes. She figured that Aidan was genuinely hungry since he had finished the plate of pasta.
She did not know why he wanted to come to her house so spontaneously. Did he want to see people's reactions when they were caught up in an awkward situation?
After the dishes were all cleaned and placed on the rack, she sat on the couch in the living room and turned on the TV to cover up the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
After a while, her phone rang. When she checked her screen, she saw Elijah's caller ID flashing.
As soon as Leanna answered the call, she could hear Elijah's voice from the other end of the line, "I'm sorry for leaving so abruptly just now without saying goodbye."
"It's okay." After a pause, Leanna asked, "You have something to tell me, don't you?"
At the other end of the line, Elijah was silent but swallowed all the words he wanted to say to her. Finally, he chuckled. "Nothing. I have been busy the past few days, so when I was free, I went to meet you, that's all."
Leanna pursed her lips lightly. She knew that something was up when she saw Elijah's solemn face
today, but since he didn't want to tell her, she wouldn't press on the matter.
"Leanna."
"Yeah?"
Elijah inhaled before saying, "Are you and Mr. Pearson—"
"Yes," Leanna said. "We are together."
Elijah had already guessed the answer, but he insisted on hearing the answer from her lips. Even though he was sad, he was also relieved. It was time for him to let go. "I wish you guys happiness," he said with a faint smile.
"Thank you."
Leanna didn't know what else to say apart from these two words.
Before she ended the call, he advised, "No matter what, you must be wary of Lloyd and Georgina."
Not long after the call ended, the bathroom door opened.
Aidan walked out with wet hair. "Where's the hairdryer? I didn't see it."
Leanna withdrew her thoughts, placed her phone down, went into the bathroom, and took the hairdryer from the drawer under the sink. As she handed the hairdryer to him, she regarded him skeptically. "Did you really search for it?"
"Of course."
Aidan took the hairdryer and plugged it in.
The water droplets on the tip of his hair slid down smoothly to his jaw, his protruding Adam's apple, and finally down his chest behind the collar.
Leanna instinctively licked her lips and felt her throat dry at the scene before her.
The low roar of the hairdryer sounded before she could come up with an excuse to leave. Aidan casually combed through his wet hair, and a few water droplets were splashed on Leanna's face.
She looked up and was about to complain when he smiled beguilingly. "You can't take your eyes off me, can you?"
Aidan's voice was deep and enchanting, as always. He looked a few years younger now that he wore Louis' clothes. Nevertheless, there was a hint of youthful purity in his usual cold black eyes, and even his prominent and solemn facial features softened.
She was used to seeing him in a suit, so when he changed his fashion style, it seemed to have a more significant impact. His body exuded a dashing yet captivating aura even when he was merely standing there.
