Aidan hummed in response and concurred, "Yes, it's my business."
After sniffling several times, Leanna suggested, "So let's do what we can, okay?"
But Aidan held her in his arms without saying a word.
He finally agreed after a long while, "Okay."
He knew that even if he didn't agree, Leanna wouldn't give up.
That was because she even gave up the opportunity to participate in Fashion Week just for this matter.
Therefore, she would continue to take medicine and injections behind his back.
Instead of that happening, he would rather bear these pressures with her.
Waylen said that Leanna's bad mood and loss of appetite were all side effects of taking medicine and injections.
There was no other way to deal with it other than letting her bear through it.
As the treatment progressed, her mood swings would only get worse.
Therefore, she did not need someone to tell her what she should do but someone who could help her release her emotions.
If it weren't for his recent busy schedule that caused him to come home late every day, he wouldn't have neglected her changes to this extent.
She was the person who slept beside him every night, yet he needed Zoe to remind him of her condition.
Leanna felt relieved when she saw that he finally understood her.
She looked up, her eyes still red and moist from crying.
Aidan's eyebrows twitched imperceptibly.
No one in the world understood the changes in his body better than Leanna.
She grabbed his tie and pulled him down slightly.
Their gazes met, and Aidan asked, "What are you doing?"
Leanna cooed, "Stop pretending."
There seemed to be a hint of happiness in Aidan's dark eyes. He said nothing and lowered his head for a kiss, then effortlessly picked her up and brought her back to the bedroom.
Leanna untied his tie and casually threw it on the ground.
The next second, she was pressed onto the bed.
When Aidan raised his eyes, his gaze fell on her arm.
There were a few more red dots than before.
Back then, she lied, saying that they were insect bites.
Thinking of this, he bit her neck.
Leanna let out a muffled groan, but to avoid ruining the atmosphere, she didn't curse at him.
However, she could not let this slide.
So, she untied his shirt and the metal buckle of his belt before moving her fingers along the obvious muscles on his waist and abdomen.
Aidan suddenly tensed up.
This was something that he had spent several nights coaxing and deceiving Leanna into doing.
But it was the first time she did it on her own.
Before Aidan could say anything, Leanna had already moved at her own pace.
Her delicate fingers felt very soft on his skin.
Aidan's Adam's apple bobbed up and down as a bead of sweat fell from his forehead and landed on her shoulder.
He pressed his thin lips against her earlobe and whispered, "Faster, honey."
But Leanna refused, "No, I won't."
Instead, she deliberately slowed her movements as if retaliating against what he had done today.
Aidan fell silent.
Unable to bear it any longer, he leaned down and bit her lips again, this time a little harder, while using his hand to touch the sensitive areas on her body.
