I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 849 Life-threatening Matters
Leanna was miles away on her way back. Even after arriving at the studio, she couldn't focus during a discussion regarding the
renovation with Zoe.
Zoe noticed her distraction and stopped the discussion. "Nana, Nana?"
After calling her name twice, Leanna finally snapped back to reality. "What's wrong?"
"Did Chloe tell you something?" Zoe continued her bold guess, "Is she Freddie's half-sister? Is this forbidden love affair going to
unfold?"
Leanna found it hilarious. "No... It's not about them, it's about something else."
Zoe noticed that Leanna didn't want to continue the topic. "I'll take care of the renovation. I'll show you the design when it's
ready."
Leanna nodded. "Thank you."
Zoe patted her shoulder. "Don't worry about it. Go home and rest up. I'll take care of things here."
Leanna nodded again. "I'll get going now. I have something to do."
She wanted to go to Crossley Group. She arrived at the office when Aidan was attending a meeting. The assistant poured her a
glass of water and left.
Leanna found it hard to just sit there and do nothing, so she got up and looked around. She saw a data analysis report on his
desk. It was about the New Coast project.
She flipped through a few pages, but she failed to understand a thing. In the end, she gave up. Just as she put it down, she
noticed a photo frame next to it.

It was a photo of them taken at the love lock bridge.
She had seen it before in Aidan's office at Pearson Group. She didn't expect him to bring it here. Next to it was another picture. It
wasn't there when she visited last time.
It was a photo of Leanna holding Noah with a smile. Obviously. it was taken by Aidan.
She couldn't remember where it was taken. Judging from the background, it seemed to be at the villa in Jamesdon.
Leanna's gaze fixated on the child, unable to shift her gaze from him. She remained in that position until Aidan entered the office.
He hugged her from behind, asking, "When did you come?"
Jonathan read the room and silently left to give them some space.
Leanna turned her head to look at him. "Not long ago. Are you done with the meeting? Do you still have work to do? Would you
like something to eat?"
Aidan replied, "I still have a few documents to handle. I'll talk to you later. Did you sign the contract?"
Freddie must've told him.
She nodded gently. "Yes, I signed it and I contacted a renovation company."
Leanna placed the photo frame down. "Go ahead with your work. I'll wait for you to go home together."
He kissed her ear and said, "No rush, tell me why you came to find me first."
She hesitated for a moment. "What are your plans for the New Coast project?"
He probably didn't expect her to suddenly bring this up because his eyebrows raised slightly. "Hmm?"

She added, "I heard that there are many problems with this project. I know that Justin did that on purpose and that you should
have a way to deal with it. I shouldn't have asked, but..."
As she had told Chloe, it was too dangerous. Even Aidan couldn't easily walk away unscathed.
Furthermore, she had a feeling that Justin wasn't afraid of him joining this project. He seemed to be satisfied with the outcome.
This meant that there was a trap ahead of Aidan.
No matter what the trap was, once any problem arose with this project, it would be absolutely life-threatening.
Aidan knew what she was thinking and gently placed his hand on the back of her neck. "Don't worry, don't you trust me?"
Leanna stared at him in the eyes. "But Justin doesn't give a fig about anything now. I'm afraid—"
"Rest assured, that won't happen." His voice was soft and low, completely different from before.
Her heart sank to the pit of her stomach, for Aidan himself didn't know what the future held either.
He never did anything without certainty. In the past, he wouldn't care about issues like this as long as it didn't harm his interests.
However, this time, he had to do it.
He pulled her into his arms and cooed, "As long as you're all safe, I'll be fine."
Leanna wrapped her arms around his waist. All she could do now was not to cause him trouble.
After a while, there was a knock on the door. It was Jonathan. "President Pearson, there are two documents to..."
Speechless, she immediately got out of Aidan's embrace and regained her composure, saying, "You should head on with your
work. I can wait."
If it wasn't for the urgent documents, Jonathan wouldn't have interrupted the moment.

Aidan smiled. "Alright."
While he was dealing with the documents, Leanna sat on the sofa, flipping through the photos of Noah that Waylen had sent her
on her phone. Noah seemed taller every time she proceed to the next picture.
Just as she was lost in thought, Freddie sent her a message. '?'
Leanna replied, '?'
'How did it go? I'm thinking about whether to bring a bodyguard home tonight.'
She was at a loss for words as she wrote, 'I asked her, but it's not something really related to you.'
'I don't understand.'
'Have you met Chloe before?'
'What do you mean?' He was confused.
She explained, 'I feel like she trusts you a lot. This trust is based on something solid, not blind admiration.'
'Don't you know that good-looking people possess this kind of affinity, People seem to trust us easily.
'Thanks, I am disgusted.'
Freddie replied with a smiling emoji. She was bored, so ended up playing a game of sending emojis with him. She had quite a
few silly emojis from Zoe.
A few minutes later, Leanna put her phone down, feeling a bit tired.
Aidan's voice resounded. "Feeling sleepy?"

She was about to deny it, but then she yawned.
He walked over and took off his suit jacket to drape it on her. "If you're sleepy, take a nap. I'll wake you up when it's time to
leave."
She nodded and lay down on the sofa. He rubbed her head before leaving the office with the documents.
Jonathan took them. "President Pearson."
Aidan requested, "Bring the quarterly reports from each department to my office."
Jonathan responded and was about to leave when Aidan suddenly blurted, "Forget it, I'll wait for you here. Go ahead."
