I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 308

Leanna's eyes flickered as she looked away, cleared her throat, and calmly remarked, "I just didn't expect Louis' clothes to fit quite well on you." Leonno's eyes flickered os she looked owoy, cleored her throot, ond colmly remorked, "I just didn't expect Louis' clothes to fit quite well on you."

"Reolly? But I feel they ore o little tight."

Aidon's remork intrigued Leonno into giving him o once over, especiolly oround his shoulders. "Where is it tight? I think it fits just right."

"The ponts," Aidon quipped noncholontly.

Leonno glored ot him. Whot the hell?!

Leonno went to her room with o sniff ond returned with pojomos. Since Aidon's hoir wos olmost dry, she didn't hesitote to kick him out of the bothroom ond locked the door. Then, when she wos obsolutely certoin thot he couldn't get in, did she finolly toke o shower.

Aidon stood ot the bothroom door for o while until he heord the sound of woter storting. He coughed with one hond ogoinst his lips, went to the kitchen to pour o gloss of woter, ond dronk it in one gulp.

At this moment, there were onother series of knocks on the door.

Aidon's expression groduolly become solemn becouse he hod o good guess os to who wos behind thot

door. Finolly, he ploced the gloss down with o clink ond wolked to the door.

Doniel, who wos stonding outside the door with the bottle of olive oil, donned o stiff yet polite smile on his foce. "Oh, hello, Mr. Peorson. You hoven't left."

Aidon leoned ogoinst the door ond sneered. "Yes. Is my presence bothering you?"

"No, of course not. I meon well. After oll, Miss McKinney is my neighbor. I'm just keeping on eye on her sofety, thot's oll."

Aidon huffed impotiently. "If you hove something to soy, just soy it."

"I—" Doniel looked ot the bottle of olive oil in his hond ond honded it to Aidon. "I'm here to return this."

When Aidon reoched out to toke it, Doniel suddenly retrocted the bottle ond soid, "Where is Miss McKinney? Since I borrowed it from her, I think it's better to return it to her in person."

"She's busy." Aidon looked ot him expressionlessly, his goze cleor ond cold.

Doniel loughed owkwordly. "Oh! In thot cose, I'll come bock tomorrow to return it."

"You don't hove to. Just keep it."

"No, I con't keep it," Doniel refused solemnly. "Since I borrowed it, I should return it. I'm not o greedy person."

"First, Elijoh. Now, you. If he cored so much obout her, why didn't he come himself?"

"He?" Doniel feigned ignoronce. "Who ore you referring to?" Leanna's eyes flickered as she looked away, cleared her throat, and calmly remarked, "I just didn't expect Louis' clothes to fit quite well on you."

"Really? But I feel they are a little tight."

Aidan's remark intrigued Leanna into giving him a once over, especially around his shoulders. "Where is it tight? I think it fits just right."

"The pants," Aidan quipped nonchalantly.

Leanna glared at him. What the hell?!

Leanna went to her room with a sniff and returned with pajamas. Since Aidan's hair was almost dry, she didn't hesitate to kick him out of the bathroom and locked the door. Then, when she was absolutely certain that he couldn't get in, did she finally take a shower.

Aidan stood at the bathroom door for a while until he heard the sound of water starting. He coughed with one hand against his lips, went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, and drank it in one gulp.

At this moment, there were another series of knocks on the door.

Aidan's expression gradually became solemn because he had a good guess as to who was behind that door. Finally, he placed the glass down with a clink and walked to the door.

Daniel, who was standing outside the door with the bottle of olive oil, donned a stiff yet polite smile on his face. "Oh, hello, Mr. Pearson. You haven't left."

Aidan leaned against the door and sneered. "Yes. Is my presence bothering you?"

"No, of course not. I mean well. After all, Miss McKinney is my neighbor. I'm just keeping an eye on her safety, that's all."

Aidan huffed impatiently. "If you have something to say, just say it."

"I—" Daniel looked at the bottle of olive oil in his hand and handed it to Aidan. "I'm here to return this."

When Aidan reached out to take it, Daniel suddenly retracted the bottle and said, "Where is Miss McKinney? Since I borrowed it from her, I think it's better to return it to her in person."

"She's busy." Aidan looked at him expressionlessly, his gaze clear and cold.

Daniel laughed awkwardly. "Oh! In that case, I'll come back tomorrow to return it."

"You don't have to. Just keep it."

"No, I can't keep it," Daniel refused solemnly. "Since I borrowed it, I should return it. I'm not a greedy person."

"First, Elijah. Now, you. If he cared so much about her, why didn't he come himself?"

"He?" Daniel feigned ignorance. "Who are you referring to?"

Aidan's dark eyes narrowed a little as he stared down Daniel but said nothing.

Daniel continued, "This may sound a little awkward. You should know that Elijah likes her, so he often comes to see her. As for me, I'm her neighbor, so I always come to chat with her and whatnot—"

"Stop. I don't want to listen to this nonsense," Aidan interjected mercilessly. “Tell him that the Crossleys won't dare to harm Leanna as long as I'm here with her. I don't care what he wants to do, but Lloyd's men are watching his every move, so he'd better sort out his matters before thinking about anything else."

"Haha! You're so funny. I—"

Aidan shut the door in his face before he could finish his sentence.

The smiley curve on Daniel's lips gradually flattened. It seemed that they weren't able to ask Leanna more questions, yet he could make some speculations based on Aidan's implication.

But from the looks of it, Aidan didn't intend to tell Leanna about the things he discovered.

Daniel scratched his nose and returned to his apartment with the bottle of olive oil.

Leanna poked her head out of the bathroom. "Who were you talking to at the door?"

Aidan sat on the couch and crossed his legs. "A salesman."

"What was he selling?"

"Olive oil."

Huh? Leanna tilted her head curiously and shrugged. Then, she closed the door and continued blowing her hair.

If she was not mistaken, it should be Daniel by the door.

It was Daniel who got her the invitation to the bidding session, so it was not surprising that he was curious about what happened today and wanted to ask her about it.

As Leanna blew her hair, an idea crossed her mind, and she suddenly froze. The purpose behind Elijah's visit was probably because of the bidding session too.

A few minutes later, she left the bathroom squeaky clean. She quietly gazed at Aidan, who was sitting on the couch watching the financial news, and asked, "When do you want to sleep?"

It was as if Aidan had been waiting for this question. He swiftly aimed the remote control at the TV, turned it off, and got up. "Which is your room?"

"That one." Leanna pointed at one of the rooms.

Aidan walked to the door of the room that she pointed to but scratched his eyebrows when he noticed that Leanna had entered another room.

When Leanna was about to shut the door, she spotted Aidan, who suddenly followed her, appeared behind her, and immediately blocked the doorway. "What do you think you're doing?"

"Didn't you say that was your room?"

"Yes." Leanna said frankly, "You can sleep in my room, and I'll sleep in Zoe's room."

Aidan's brow furrowed at her answer. Then, he bent down and hooked his arms around her waist. His movements were swift as he carried her and headed for her room without warning.

Leanna struggled with all her might to no avail. Then, in the next second, he threw her onto the bed. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

He leaned down and pinned her against the bed with his muscular body to prevent her from escaping.

The room was unlit. She couldn't see his expression but could feel his breath fanning against her skin. She could also feel her annoying hormones making a nuisance of themselves.

Aidan asked in a husky voice, "Don't you want to sleep with me?"

Leanna felt that there was a hidden meaning behind his words.

She could feel his burning gaze even through the dark. She shifted her gaze sheepishly and blurted, "The bed is too small for two adults. I—"

"Is it smaller than a couch? Is it smaller than a bathtub? Is it—"

Leanna couldn't understand what he meant at first. When she finally figured it out, she blushed, ashamed and embarrassed, and covered his mouth. "Shut up!"

Aidan pursed his thin lips and kissed her palm lightly.

Leanna reflexively withdrew her hand, but he grabbed her hands, raised them above her head, and kissed her again.

The sound of clothes rustling echoed across the dark room. The cold night breeze blew in through the open window.

When they were at third base, she suddenly came to her senses and shrieked, "No! Stop!"

Aidan frowned and glared at her.

She felt as if her face was in flames based on how hot her cheeks felt. She whispered in agitation, "I-I don't have condoms... N-Next time, okay? We'll do it next time." With that, she wanted to escape.

Aidan pulled her back and pressed her down. Then, a box appeared out of nowhere and landed on her hand. He urged, "Open it."

"W-When did you buy this?"

This b*stard has come prepared! D*mn it! I shouldn't have let him in! D*mn!

Aidan smiled. "I want to nip your avoidance in the bud."

An utterly outmaneuvered Leanna decided to play mute in protest.
