I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 42

Chapter 42 Do My Words Make You Sick? Sensing danger approaching, Leanna couldn’t help but step backward until she had no more room to retreat and the cold wall was pressed against her back. The word ‘disgusted’ snapped her back to her senses completely, and her voice was calm as she spoke, “You’ve got it wrong.

There’s nothing going on between me and Zayn.” Clearly unconvinced, Aidan held her chin and narrowed his eyes as he said coldly, “Why are you taking folic acid, then? Aren’t you preparing for pregnancy?” Speechless, Leanna finally understood why he had such a reaction when he saw her taking folic acid. A few times, she wanted to refute him by telling him that nobody had set the rule saying that folic acid was only meant for pregnancy preparation. However, she thought that it wasn’t bad if that was what he thought. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

At least, he wouldn’t suspect that the baby was his. Seeing that she was silent, he squeezed her chin tightly. “At which stage are you with Zayn Barnett now? Or should I ask, how many times have you done it with him already?” Never before had Leanna felt this offended, and she was annoyed and frustrated as she snapped, “Do you think everyone acts like an animal in heat like you? There’s nothing going on between me and Zayn. No… It’s all thanks to you. If it wasn’t because of you, I would have been with him a long time ago, and maybe, our children would be running around now!” “So, you’re really missing him,” Aidan said sarcastically. “Should I be missing you instead, then?

Don’t you forget this, President Pearson. We’re already divorced, so even if I meet up with Zayn and do whatever, it’s none of your business. I—Uh!” Lowering his head, he covered her lips completely with his, pushing back all the words she wanted to say. Leanna lifted her hands and wanted to push him

away, but he pinned her against the wall instead. Tightening his grip on her chin, he forced her mouth open and the tip of his tongue pried her lips apart easily.

Instantly, her eyes turned red. Forget the fact that this jerk gave her a hard time when they were married, now that they were divorced, he was still acting so brazenly, and she had really had enough! Struggling with all her might, she then tasted the taste of iron that was spreading between their mouths. Slowly, Aidan got away from her, but his hands were still in control of her as he spoke in a husky voice, “Is it not pleasurable how I’m serving you? Why are you biting me so hard?’ Controlling herself from shaking, Leanna said emotionlessly, “President Pearson, I think you should look for someone to let off your steam if you’re doing something so inhumane because you’ve been abstinent for too long and your energy is building up.”

“I’m here to look for you, aren’t I?” he answered. It had been almost three months since she brought up the divorce, and he hadn’t touched her for a long time, so of course he had the urge. Meanwhile, she took a deep breath and thought, This jerk really sounds so justified! While she was on the edge of passing out from fury, she said, “President Pearson, I hope you can keep your beastly behavior under control. We’re already divorced, and I have no obligations to you as your wife. If you continue this, I’ll sue you for sexual abuse.” Aidan grimaced glumly, “Don’t mention the word ‘divorce’ to me.”

“We’ve already terminated the legal relationship established by the equalities and volitionality between a man and a woman.” Using his thumb, he wiped off the blood that was smudged on the corner of his lips. “Why didn’t I realize before this that you have such a sharp tongue?” “That’s because you didn’t understand me in the past.” “Marrying me obstructed you from developing?” Silently, Leanna thought,

Is there a problem with this jerk? Just a second ago, he was fierce and mean to me, and now, he’s telling me a stupid joke which isn’t funny at all. Before she could say anything, Aidan added, “Leanna McKinney, someone said that I like you.” He paused and asked, “Do you believe this?” While she remained speechless, he said, “I don’t even believe this myself. Or perhaps, do you think this is possible?” Look for the person who said something so ridiculous! she thought furiously.

Why are you here acting so sarcastic with me? Unable to tolerate him anymore, she was about to lash out at him when she smelled the faint scent of tobacco and alcohol on him. During their three years of marriage, she could count the times when he smoked on one hand, unless he encountered something frustrating. However, this had nothing to do with her, and just because he was in a foul mood, it didn’t mean that he could humiliate her brazenly. Not hearing an answer from her for a long while, Aidan released her hand. “I’ll give you a chance to explain the folic acid.” Leanna pursed her lips; she should really thank the heavens that he was giving her this chance, and he said again, “Leanna McKinney, I’ll believe you if you answer me this time.

So, you better think carefully before giving me an answer.” Thinking of her debt of ten million, she conceded in the end and lied with a straight face, “That’s not mine; it’s Zoe’s. She’s going to get married to her boyfriend soon, and they’re preparing for a baby.” “Why is her stuff in your bag?” “I’m living with her and we’re working at the same place together. She forgot to bring it when she left the house in a hurry. Is there a problem if I bring it to her?” Aidan was quiet, and Leanna didn’t know whether he believed it or not. After a couple of seconds, he asked, “Aren’t you living with her? Why are you in a hotel now?”

Annoyed, she snapped, “Can’t you think with your brains? Do you think it’s appropriate for me to live there when she’s preparing to have a baby with her boyfriend?” Her answer got him speechless, and she continued, “If there’s nothing else, President Pearson, may you just leave now? People will gossip if a single man and woman share a room… I don’t want someone to label me as disgusting for no reason again.” “As long as people have mouths, gossip can be spread no matter how.” And isn’t this all your f*cking fault?! she thought furiously. He stated casually, “If you don’t want others to gossip about us, I’m willing to put up with some annoyance and agree to have our marriage again.

Nobody has the right to criticize as long as we are in an equal and legal relationship.” After the words left his lips, Leanna couldn’t help but retch. Immediately, Aidan’s face turned sour and he tightened his jaw as he growled, “Leanna McKinney!” With little time to waste, she pushed him aside, ran to the bathroom, and puked furiously while grasping the toilet. She emerged from the bathroom after a long time to find him still standing in the same location, his gorgeous features buried by a coating of icy mist.

“Why? Do my words make you sick?” he asked with a stony face. “I’m just feeling a little unwell, but if that’s what you think, I have nothing to —” A loud sound of the door closing reverberated before she finished her sentence. Sniggering sheepishly, Leanna then returned to the couch, but the food in front of her had already turned cold, and she lost her appetite. Sighing, she cleared up the things simply and went to bed. This had been an exhausting evening for her. Feeling her the edge of her lips which was chafed, she suddenly felt mad.

That jerk must be acting out because he had too much to drink tonight, and she blocked him on all possible contact methods. The further she stayed away from Aidan, the better it was for her, but she

was still unable to avoid him venting out his frustration on her. Just what kind of person have I offended? she wondered to herself, tossing around with her hand on her abdomen. Fortunately, he had believed the story about the folic acid, at least. Even if he didn’t, it didn’t even occur to him that she was taking it because she was pregnant.
