Chapter 33

Leanna froze. He knows everything…

Leanna froze. He knows everything…

Peering at her, Aidan lowered his cold and solemn, "In order to marry me, you used every trick possible in the book; when it comes to our divorce, you did the very same. Leanna McKinney, do you feel a sense of accomplishment whenever I fall for your trap… over and over?"

"I'm sorry. I never thought of it like that. I just…" She lowered her head in response.

"Just want to be with Zayn now that he's back?"

"What?"

He crossed his legs and continued, "I think you're dreaming, Leanna. Did you really think that the Barnetts would approve of him marrying a divorced woman?"

Before she could even think of a reply for his last question, she sneered at his verbal attacks, "I don't really get what you mean, President Pearson. So what if a woman is divorced? Does that mean she should be looked down upon? If so, how can a divorced man be so shameless as to cheat his wife even before they were divorced?"

"I dare you to repeat that," Aidan answered.

Not foolish enough to argue with him, Leanna only blinked innocently. "Of course, I'm not talking about you, President Pearson. That was just a mere example."

He pursed his lips while trying to suppress his anger.

"Did you want to ask me about this, President Pearson?" she asked.

"What else do you think I wanted to ask?" he questioned.

"Then… Can you leave after your question? I'm a bit sleepy now."

Why is this b*stard asking so many weird questions? We've already divorced for so long now. Does he want to frame me for something else?

He's acting so weird.

After Leanna finished, she was taken aback at his emotionless expression. Just as she was about to direct her gaze elsewhere, he held her chin and warned her, "Leanna McKinney, quit thinking so highly of yourself. You should be grateful that I'm not bringing up your past deeds. If you really want to play me for a fool, you're welcome to try."
