Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 569

Chapter 569

At the same time, Aidan woke up at 7.30PM in the hospital and looked around. He saw Naomi and Jonathan but not Leanna.

Jonathan stepped forward and asked in concern, "President Pearson, how are you feeling?"

Aidan replied lightly with a slightly hoarse voice, "I'm fine."

Then, after Jonathan elevated the bed, he uttered, "I'll get the doctor."

Naomi walked over and sat on the couch beside him after Jonathan left. "Leanna left with the child."

Aidan was not surprised, and he sighed in response.

She gave a soft sigh and inquired, "Well, what are you going to do next?"

"I'll see how it goes." I'm still at the hospital, so I can't do anything. After a pause, he continued, "Are… Are they hurt?"

"The baby is scared but fine. However, Leanna… I think her trauma is probably greater. Jonathan told me that the baby would have been suffocated to death by that nanny if she wasn't there."

Aidan closed his eyes wearily as he mumbled, "It's my fault." I know why Dad left the kid alone, so I never expected anyone would do anything to the kid. They did it before me, no less. Sienna might have decided to kill herself then, so she was fearless.

Naomi interrupted him and stated, "Of course, the baby should be fine. As for the rest… Since you're being hospitalized, you might as well use this period to give Leanna some time."

He muttered dejectedly, "She probably won't forgive me." I remember what she said very well, and I'm clear about her temper. I thought of taking the kid away from Pearson Family Estate before I finally came clean. Then, I can at least gain a chance to defend myself from facing the gallows. However, everything spiraled out of control.

She replied, "I can't help you either. You've got to resolve it on your own."

Jonathan soon returned with the doctor.

After a check-up, the doctor couldn't help himself as he reprimanded, "I have to say, you're far too daring for your own good. You were shot, but you waited for such a long time before receiving treatment. If you were rushed here just a minute later, you might lose this hand of yours."

Aidan uttered, "So, I was lucky."

"Well, that's true."

Naomi chimed in, "I'll get you breakfast."

After the doctor and Naomi left, Aidan asked, "How's it going out there?"

Jonathan replied, "Old Mr. Pearson is awake, but he isn't very well and can only move his eyes. The doctor claimed that his agitation caused a cerebral ischemic stroke. As a result, he can only spend the rest of his life in bed."

































However, Aidan didn't even bat an eye and changed the topic, "How about the Pearsons?"

"It rained the whole night yesterday. Mrs. Pearson's corpse is only being carried away this morning." Jonathan continued, "We suppressed last night's incident, and not even a whisper was spoken about it."

"Get some people to keep an eye on them. Sienna's death isn't a last-ditch effort but well thought out," he said icily. "There's a greater conspiracy behind this since she went to such lengths. Be vigilant toward all the servants, drivers, and bodyguards in Pearson Family Estate. Look into it right away if any stranger gets in touch with them."

"Okay." However, Jonathan piped up once more, "Well… How about Young Master Justin?"

Aidan pursed his thin lips before finally responding, "Get someone to stalk him too. He can't go anywhere with ease. If he faces trouble, give him a hand, but don't let him know that it's us."

"All right." Before he left, he suddenly recalled something, so he stated, "By the way, President Pearson, Leanna was here before."

Aidan was slightly stupefied. "When?"

"Around 2.00PM to 3.00PM, but she left without staying for long."

Aidan slowly clenched his fists on his blanket. "What did she say?"

"She mocked me," Jonathan said. "Miss McKinney claimed that I can't even save myself, so I'd better not meddle in your affairs."

Aidan was struck speechless.

Jonathan whispered, "President Pearson, she holds a grudge against me now. I'm afraid you…"

Aidan immediately shot him a cold glare before Jonathan ran for the hills.

Oscar came soon after Jonathan had left. He looked at Aidan and clicked his tongue. "What a hero. You nearly lost your arm."

Aidan closed his eyes and decided to ignore him.

Oscar didn't mind it at all as he soldiered on, "We've got it all figured out. Celia ran away from Pearson Family Estate that day but bumped into Raymond halfway. Old Mr. Pearson didn't trust Raymond, so he asked Raymond to do the deed. Unexpectedly, Celia's corpse was found under the bridge at dawn the next day after she died. The police officers soon found that Raymond had something to do with it. If my guess is right, it was Raymond who told Leanna that her kid was at Pearson Family Estate."



After a while, Aidan opened his eyes. "Where's Raymond?"

"Celia bit him before she died, and his skin tissues remained in her teeth. The evidence is conclusive, so it won't be long before the trial commences."

Aidan raised a query. "Don't you find it weird?"

Oscar nodded. "Yes, it's pretty odd. If Old Mr. Pearson asked Raymond to kill Celia out of distrust in him, Raymond did go through with that in the end. So, he revealed his stand for the time being. At least he'll never come to you and tell on others. Even if Old Mr. Pearson wants to break his promises, he won't do it at this crucial time because Raymond was caught. Raymond will surely implicate Old Mr. Pearson to protect himself, so he won't bother with such things."

Aidan interrupted him and explained, "It wasn't because of him that the corpse was found."

Oscar furrowed his brows. "So, you're saying that there's another person adding fuel to the fire secretly?"

"I can't help but be vigilant toward Sienna because of her death. Although we eliminated everyone on her side, we still don't know who is secretly helping her."

"Umm… Could she do this kind of thing without Old Mr. Pearson's knowledge, even if someone helped her? It wouldn't do her any good if someone exposed Celia's murder to Old Mr. Pearson before we went to Pearson Family Estate."

"This is what's amazing about this scheme since every part of it is linked and timed just right." Aidan continued, "What's more, Sienna was ready to die last night. She tried to infuriate me to kill her, but she didn't expect that I wouldn't play into her hand, so she chose to kill herself."

Oscar felt his blood run cold at that piece of information. "What the hell did she want?"

Aidan snorted. "She wanted Justin and I to hate each other. As long as she died, both of us would hold a grudge against each other forever."

"She even plotted against Justin, but wasn't she afraid that you might get rid of Justin to spare any further trouble if she did that?"

"Well, she knew me more than you do in this aspect."

Oscar came to an epiphany after being struck dumb for a moment. Sienna made the right choice. Aidan won't kill Justin no matter what happens, so she fearlessly sets up such a scheme.
