At dinner time, they went to a hotpot restaurant recommended by Lennon.
Leona seemed to be very dissatisfied with the restaurant. There was an impatient look on her face.
She ate a little and then stopped.
Aleigha, however, enjoyed it. She knew that Lennon did this for her, but she still refused to talk to him.
After dinner, Aleigha left and took a taxi back to the Xiao Residence.
Adrian had been waiting anxiously at home. Just as he was about to go out and look for Aleigha, she came back.
Aleigha smiled awkwardly and said, "What, are you afraid I was hitting on young guys?"
"How dare you!"
Adrian chuckled and took her into his arms. "Aleigha, if you dare to do so, I promise I'm gonna imprison you.
"In my bed."
"Pervert! Hey, look. I bought this for you. I was hoping you would like it."
Adrian took the shopping bag from her and put it on the table. Then, he whispered in her ear.
"I like everything you bought for me, but now I feel like we should do something more important. Aleigha, I've been working so hard.
"When can I be a dad?"
Aleigha blushed. She quickly covered her face and said, "Adrian, you rascal! Can you stop talking about this? I'm too young to be a mom."
"It's driving me crazy! You know, my parents loved each other even more after they had children. I want my child."
His parents were on a trip again. It was as if their time together would never end.
"Humph. I'm going to take a shower."
Aleigha pushed him away and trotted upstairs.
The next day, Aleigha took Adrian's car to the office. When she arrived, she saw Leona pacing back and forth down her office.
"That is Leona Woods?" Adrian parked the car nearby, rolled down the window and lit up a cigarette.
"Yes. I don't know why she's here again. I want to know what she's up to, so I didn't turn her down."
"Be careful. Meet a client with me at noon."
Aleigha got off the car. Adrian didn't leave until he saw Aleigha and Leona come into the company.
"Aleigha, I'd like to invite you to lunch."
"Lunch? I'm sorry, Adrian asked me to meet a client at noon."
Leona was slightly stunned and suddenly grabbed Aleigha's arm. Then, she began to act like a spoiled child.
"Aleigha, take me with you, please. I'm alone and bored. I don't have any friends except you."
"I promise I won't make any trouble, okay?"
Aleigha felt uneasy. "I'm gonna give Adrian a call and see if he's okay with it."
"Go ahead." Leona urged her.
Aleigha took out her phone and called Adrian.
"Adrian, here's the thing..."
"Hello, Adrian. I'm Leona. Can I have lunch with you and Aleigha?"
Before Aleigha could finish her sentence, Leona grabbed her phone.
"I only talk to Aleigha."
Adrian's voice was ice- cold, and there was an undoubted disgust in his tone.
Feeling a little wronged, Leona returned the phone to Aleigha.
