Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103 I’m Begging You

That evening, when Leanna was packing in her room, there was a soft knock on the door. “Leanna, are you asleep?”

So, she got up and opened the door. “Ms. Fletcher.”

When Naomi noticed the luggage in the room, she asked, “I heard Aidan say that he is going back tomorrow. Are you going back with him?”

Leanna nodded and said, “I have some things to settle in Highside.”

Naomi handed the bag in her hand once she heard this. “These are some things that I’ve recently knitted here. You can bring them with you. Maybe you’ll need it in the future.”

“Thank you, Ms. Fletcher.” Leanna took the bag from Naomi. “Will you not go back to Highside in the future?”

Naomi smiled lightly. “I won’t. There’s nothing for me to miss in that place.”

“What about Aidan…”

“That’s up to him. If he has time, he will come back to visit me. It’s okay if he doesn’t. After all, I have never fulfilled my duty as his mother.”

Leanna did not know what to say in response, so she could only stay silent and nod respectfully.

After a few seconds, Naomi spoke again, “Leanna, I don’t know what happened between you and Aidan, and I don’t have the right to comment, but…Aidan has a bad temper. He has always had problems expressing himself, but he is a soft-hearted man. I could tell from being around you two these few days. He actually cares about you. He just doesn’t know how to express it.”

Even if she did not say this, Leanna knew that b*stard Aidan was only terrible because of the way he spoke. Although he was a good man, everything changed when he opened his mouth.

Moreover, growing up in a household like the Pearsons, where everyone was always scheming against each other, he had long been accustomed to seeing the nasty side of others first and weighed his pros and cons with each interaction.

Because of this, Leanna wanted to keep a distance from him as much as possible. She did not want to be involved in the conflict between him and the Pearsons.

It was just that…

She looked down at her belly; maybe this was why Aidan didn’t want this child to be born.

But as a mother, adding to the fact that she had a miscarriage before, it was a rare blessing from God for her to be pregnant again. She would not deprive this child of the opportunity to come into this world.

After a long time, Leanna replied, “Ms. Fletcher, Aidan, and I are not compatible in every way. The reason why we got married in the first place was that—”

Halfway through her words, she let out a laugh. “Whatever the case, the problem lies with me, and I should bear the consequences.”

Naomi sighed but didn’t say anything else upon hearing Leanna’s words. Instead, she told Leanna to take care of herself when she was back and to call Naomi if anything happened before leaving.

Leanna was about to close the door when she noticed Aidan standing nearby, looking at her coldly.

She kept quiet for a moment.

Then, the corners of her mouth twitched. “President Pearson.”

Aidan had one hand in his pocket, and his tone was indifferent when he spoke, “Tell me, what consequences did you bear?”

Isn’t the consequence of my suffering as your wife for three whole years, taking on your cynicism, sarcasm, and brutality?

Nevertheless, she answered sincerely, “The divorce is the consequence I should bear.”

“Leanna, if you think that with a divorce, everything is settled, then you’re being too simple-minded.”

“I know that it can’t change the past and that I still have ulterior motives in your eyes, but this is the only thing I can do.”

“If you really plan to bear the consequences, you might as well think it through. For example, how would the Pearsons react when they find out about your pregnancy?”

After he dropped such a bombshell, he turned and returned to his room.
