Chapter 184 Mental Problem When the car stopped at the apartment, Leanna let out her breath. "Elijah, I’mso
sorry about what happened earlier." Elijah smiled and gently shook his head.
"I've heard about Aidan’s behavior before.
I just didn't expect him to do such a thing." "Yeah, he's too arrogant.
That's ridiculous." She then opened the car door.
"Thank you so much for today. See you." "Leanna," Elijah stopped her while looking a little nervous.
He hesitated for a moment before asking.
"Are we still friends?" Leanna was slightly taken aback by the question.
Then, she nodded.
"Of course. What's wrong?"
A smile reappeared on his face.
"Nothing. I'll see you around then." "Alright, please be careful on your way back. Text me when you get home."
"Okay." Elijah decided to take it step by step and not to rush it.
There was at least still a little hope for him so long as she did not reject him rightaway. After Elijah's black car
had left, Leanna withdrew her gaze from the car and went upstairs. When she opened the door, she saw Zoe
lying on the couch and having some snacks over there. Leanna changed her shoes.
She then walked over and asked, "Zoe, aren't you supposed to be having dinner with Daniel now?" Hearing
this, Zoe let out a longsigh.
"Yeah, that was the plan. Elijah mentioned that Daniel does not have any food allergies, right? So, I was going
to take Daniel to enjoy theHighside specialties," Zoe was getting angrier as she continued.
"But just when we were right in front of the restaurant, he told me that there weresome canned foods in his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfridge which will be expired after tonight and he had to finish them before they expired!" Leanna was left
speechless. After a while, she asked, "So, you come back just like that?" "Yep, that's right." Zoe rested again
on the couch and said indifferently, "He even invited me to his house to have those canned foods with him, but
I refused." Leanna couldn't help laughing. Zoe let out another long sigh.
"I think he was either making an excuse to avoid having dinner with me, or he must have a mental
problem."
Leanna said, "Foreigners sometimesdo have some strange cultures. So, just get over it."
"No, seriously. If it wasn't for his good-looking face, I would definitely take him to a psychiatrist from that
restaurant right away." Zoe sat up on the couch with herlegs crossed and said thoughtfully, "Nana, do
all hot guys always act this weird?" "Well, I don't think it has much to do with looks." "Why not? I do
think that Aidan is a weirdo.
Now, there's finally another guy who can compete with him." Leanna remained silent.
Zoe continued, "Forget it. Let's not talk about such an annoying subject. How is your date with Elijah?
Any progress?" Leanna corrected, "It’s not a date. It's just a meal between friends."
"Right. Then, has anything which is beyond the scope of friendship happened between you two during
the meal?"
Leanna was silentfor a while before saying, "No.” Seeing the dejected look on her face, Zoe knew
something was off. Usually, when Leanna had such an expression, it must be something related to that
guy. Zoe was immediately energized.
"Did Aiden come to interrupt your meal? Look, what did I just tell you? He hasa mental problem.
It's true!" Leanna laughed a little and did not really know what to say.
She did not understand what that b*stard was thinking about.
Zoe hurriedlyasked, "What happened then?" "Nothing much. Elijah and I left directly." Zoe said with
emotion, "Now, I get what that b*stard is thinking.
He does not know how to cherish when he had you and only regrets it now thathe has lost you.
However, he forgets that the world is not revolving around him and nothing would wait for him forever."
As soon as she finished speaking, they heard thedoorbell ring. When Leanna was about to open the
door, Zoe immediately stood up.
"Hey, I’ll go get the door. It must be Daniel. He must have felt embarrassed about his behavior earlier,
and wants to apologize about it." "Alright."
Before running to open the door, Zoe hurriedly tidied up her hair and put on herlipstick.
Then, she took a deep breath, showed a pleasing smile, and opened the door.
"Hi... A-A-Ai—Aiden?"
Zoe was stunned.
Then, she thought to herself.
"Why is this b*stard always showing up in a different way when I'm talking behind him?”
Aiden looked at Zoe with a poker face and tilted his head alittle as a gesture to ask her to get out of his
way. His attitude was like a robber who asked the owner to open the door for him. Zoe hesitated for a
few seconds as she felt her feet were too heavy to be moved. She tried to block his way into the house.
But as Aiden took one step forward, she immediately stepped aside and let him in.
Just as Leanna thought it was strange to not hear a conversation on the otherside of the door for a long
time, she looked up and saw Aiden appearing in the living room. Leanna was silent for a while.
Then, she took a deep breath.
"Don't you know it is illegal to trespass on private property?"
Aiden glanced.
"She let me in."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZoe guiltily glanced over.
She then thought to herself.
He is really a b*stard. Before Leanna was able to say anything else, Aiden put the food he ordered from the
restaurantbefore her.
"Eat it while it’s still warm." She couldn’t help frowning and said rudely, "What do you want from me?" He
answered, "Aren't you going to be hungryif you don't have supper? Plus, I don't think you have really eaten
anything at dinner earlier." She thought it was funny as it was simply outrageous. She said coldly, "President
Pearson, I used to have the habit of having supper because I was pregnant at that point in time.
Pregnant women would normally consume more food than usual, but now—" "You can still have supper now.
No one is stopping those who are not pregnant from having supper."
Leanna was stunned as Aiden interrupted her just like that while she was talking.
So, sheraised her voice.
"I don't want it!" As if he didn't hear it, Aiden sat on the couch, unpacked the bag, and took outthe food.
"If you don't eat, I will." Leanna took a deep breath and felt that she was about to lose her temper. She felt
thatshe would be driven crazy by him sooner or later.
Aiden opened up the container of the take-out and put it in front of her.
"Are you sure you don't want it?" She looked at him without saying a word as if she was about to splash the
soup on his face.
Zoe could notwrap her head around how Aiden was still able to act as if nothing had happened when Leanna
was being hostile to him.
He even tried to have a meal there. However, apart from anything else, one could really learn a thing or two
from his calm attitude and his ability toignore others' feelings while immersed in his own world. Zoe now
realized that this might be the reason why the Pearson Group could grow and be developed at such an
incredible speed by him and why the other Pearsons were afraid of him. It was because he was unbelievably
shameless.
