Chapter 192 What Will She Give Me "Yes," uttered Leanna. "Okay. I'll pack it up for you now." When Leanna
came out.Zoe had already placed all the jewelry in a box. Leanna had changed into a pair of sweater pants
and a parka.
She then picked up the box and said, "Thanks.
I'll be going down now." Zoe snorted and hurriedly ran to the study, leaning against the window and looking
down.
Sure enough,she saw the familiar Rolls-Royce. Inside the car, Aidan tapped his knees lightly with his fingers
and inquired leisurely, "What do you think she will give me?" Jonathan didn't know what to reply.
The question was a fatal one, so he tentatively responded, "Could it be that Mrs.Pearson is ready with the
custom-made necklace?" Aidan frowned in displeasure, seemingly dissatisfied with the answer.
"Do you think she works that fast?" he questioned. Jonathan immediately agreed, "Probably not. Maybe, it's
something else." This time, Aidan kept quiet and waited patiently. Ten minutes later, Leanna ran overwith a
cardboard box.
She reached out and tapped on the glass window. He lowered the car window, but before he had time to
speak, the cardboard box was already inhis arms. Leanna apologized, "Sorry to keep you waiting for so long,
President Pearson.
You may go back now." Aidan lowered his head to glance at it before asking, "What is this?" She showedhim a
polite smile and waved at him before turning to leave. When he opened the box and took a look inside, his
face changed slightly, after which he immediately raised his head and shouted, "Leanna Mckinney!" Leanna

boiling within him. Jonathan sat in the front trying to stifle a laugh, so his face turned red instantly.... As soon
as Leanna opened the door to her house, she saw Zoe leaning against the shoe cabinet with a gossipy look.
She asked unnaturally, "Why are you looking at me like that?" "Did you go on a date with that bast—Aidan
tonight?" Leanna immediately retorted, "No way?!" "Then, why did he drop you home? Also, why would you
dress as such?" Her face slightly flushed as she was interrogated, so she stammered. Zoe inched closer and
observed her friend.
"Did you guys do something intimate?" "No!" "Really? I don't believe you." Leanna was rendered speechless.
She was indeed guilty, but in order to prevent Zoe from asking any more questions, she hurriedly made an
excuse.
"I'm going to take a shower." Finishing her sentence, she hurried into the bathroom.
After taking a shower, Leanna opened the shutters of thebathroom and noticed that it started snowing
again outside at some point, and a thin layer of snow had accumulated on the branches of the trees.
The whole world was quiet, save for the sounds of snow falling. After drying her hair, Leanna went out
to find Zoe sitting on the couch waiting for her. Thus, Leanna's plan to slip back into the bedroom failed.
She sat on the couch and coughed, "Zoe, it's not what you think.
I—" Zoe suddenly leaned closer to her, "Nana, let me ask you a question." Leanna asked, "What?"
"Is there any chance for you and Aiden to reconcile?" Leanna was takenaback by that question.
"Why do you ask?" "I noticed he's been looking for you quite often recently like he's bound to win you
back," explained Zoe.
Grabbing a pillow and hugging it in her arms, she said earnestly, "I don't really mind who you will be
with for the rest of your life as longas you're happy, but..." Leanna knew what she was worried about,
so she smiled softly.
"Aidan and I are impossible." There were too many problems between them.
It could not be summed up with asimple divorce and another marriage. Moreover, the also had a
grudge against her. Leanna continued, "I don't know what's been going on with him recently, but I'm
sure he'll wear off over a period." Hearing that, Zoe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good. I'm worried that you will fall into the trap again and return to that cage."
Although Aidanseemed to be more humane these days, especially to Leanna, the evil characteristics of
a b*stard were difficult to change.
Besides, the Pearson household was outrageously chaotic. Leanna patted her lap, got up, and
reassured, "Don't worry.
I know my limits." Just as Leanna was about to return to her room, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Shewalked slowly to the door, and after having learned the lesson from the last time, she looked
through the peephole before opening the door. "Mr.Daniel, it's pretty late now. What’s the matter?"
Daniel lifted the cake in his hand and raised his eyebrows.
"I bought this on the way back.
I remember your friend likes it." Leanna turned her head and looked at Zoe, who had already stood up

Then, Leanna stepped asideand gestured.
"Please, come in." "Thanks." She closed the door, a little puzzled by Daniel's sudden visit. After placing
the cake on the coffee table, hetook a seat on the single couch.
"I'm really sorry to disturb you at such late hours, but the owner of the cake shop said this should be eaten
fresh.
It won't be as good tomorrow, and it's too much for myself, so I decided to share with youtwo." Hearing that,
Zoe offered him a beaming smile.
"Don't worry about it! Neighbors are supposed to look after each other.
I won't reject your kindness!" Daniel smiled.
"I'm glad to hear that." Leanna poured a glass of water from the kitchen and placed it in front of him.
After he thanked her, he asked, "Judging from whatMiss Crossley said today, are you her friend, Miss
Mckinney?" "She's not really a friend, but I had the honor to design a necklace for her before." "I see." Zoe
didn't understand their conversation, so she inquired, "Miss Crossley? Did you meet Georgina today?" Leanna
nodded.
"I met her during dinner." Zoe could not help but frown.
"Did she act pretentious in front of you again?" "Not really.
She has a new boyfriend." "I hope this isn't rude, but may I know what's your relationship with President
Pearson?" inquired Daniel.
For a moment, Leannaand Zoe did not answer him. Raising his brows, Daniel apologized, "It seems that I
asked an inappropriate question.
