Chapter 415

After the movie ended, it was already 11.30PM.

Leanna was the first to speak. "I wanna go home now."

Aidan hummed and replied in a subdued voice, "I'll send you home."

"Okay."

Along the way, Aidan did not talk a lot. It seemed that the movie earlier had a big impact on him. Leanna lowered the car window, feeling the cold breeze, and smiled.

After a while, the car arrived at the entrance of Crossley Residence. Leanna unbuckled her seat belt and reached out to pull the car door. When she touched the handle, she suddenly turned around and said, "I'm leaving now."

Aidan replied, "If you want me to send you in, I can do that."

Leanna stayed silent for a moment before saying, "Forget it." With that, she opened the door and got out of the car.

After walking a few steps, she halted in her tracks again and turned her head, only to see his car still parked at the spot as if he had no intention of leaving.

If she wasn't hallucinating, she seemed to hear the sound of a lighter when she got out of the car

earlier. After pondering for a moment, Leanna walked from the back of the vehicle to the driver's seat. Sure enough, Aidan was smoking.

Noticing her sudden presence, Aidan waved his hand to brush away the smoke in front of him while staring at her. "Why did you come back?"

Leanna placed her hands on the car window and looked at him without blinking.

Aidan looked at her with a puzzled expression.

It might be due to the movie earlier, but he felt her gaze was somehow meaningful. He felt uncomfortable by her stare, so he attempted to look away. At that moment, she suddenly asked, "Are you guilty?"

"Guilty of what?" Aidan licked his teeth discreetly.

Leanna then uttered seriously, "I read a test on the Internet. It said that if couples look at each other for 15 seconds, they usually can't help kissing each other, but you are avoiding my sight. Are you guilty or something?"

"Are you giving me a hint?"

"I…"

Before Leanna could speak, an arm hooked around her neck. Instantly, the man's thin lips that carried the smell of cigarettes sealed her lips. When the cigarette butt was about to be extinguished, Aidan let

go of her, his voice was low and hoarse. "Why don't you come with me so we can kiss all we want?"

She pushed him away. "In your dreams!"

Aidan chuckled at that. "Weren't you the one who asked for it?"

"I just…" Unbothered to bicker with him, she landed her gaze on the cigarette box beside him. "I'm the one who should be sad. Why did you get emotional?"

Aidan held her hand and said, "I just feel sad for you."

Leanna pouted. "It's just a movie. Why are you so serious about it?"

Aidan replied lightly, "It's nothing. I just feel sorry for you sometimes."

"Sometimes?" Shouldn't it be all the time?

When Aidan looked at her, she immediately shut up.

After a while, she pulled her hand out. "That's enough. Let's not waste time here. I'm going in."

Aidan stared at her intensely, pulled her head down without warning, kissed her for a while, and urged, "Go on in."

Just as Leanna was about to leave, she seemed to remember something. "Stop smoking."

"Got it." He smiled.

Leanna was still worried, so she reached out to him. "Give it to me."

Grabbing the cigarette box and lighter, he placed them in her palm.

Seeing that, Leanna smiled. "I'm going in now. Drive home safely."

Aidan rarely smoked unless he was in an extremely bad mood, but she couldn't fathom why he would be emotionally affected by a movie.

"Okay."

Leanna shoved his cigarette pack and lighter into her bag before entering Crossley Residence.

However, she didn't drive home today, so she had to walk a distance before reaching the house. After taking two steps, the streetlights on both sides suddenly went dark following a loud snap. Thereafter, her surroundings turned pitch black without even a small glimmer of light.

Leanna stood on the spot for a moment, and just as she was about to take out her phone to turn on the flashlight, a dazzling light suddenly lit up behind her. She squinted her eyes and turned her head to see the bright lights emitted by a car. The smile on her face grew wider at the sight.

Turning back, she no longer fished for her phone as she walked on the road. The distance from the headlights was far enough for her to cover the entire road. Moreover, walking on the road alone didn't make her feel lonely at all.

Once Leanna entered the garden, there were lights around her, so she took out her phone and sent a

message to Aidan, saying that she had arrived. After the message was sent, the car lights in the distance faded in a few seconds.

She then put away her phone, and when she went upstairs, she caught a glimpse of Lloyd's study door, which was open. She didn't know if it was his habit or to guard against her deliberately, but since she moved to Crossley Residence, Lloyd's study room was always locked except when he was around.

Leanna looked around, raised her brows indistinctly, and looked back. She then went back to her room, locked the door behind her, and took a shower.

After she entered the bedroom, a maid came out from the corner, walked to Georgina's room, and knocked lightly on the door.

"Come in," Georgina said coldly.

The maid hurriedly opened the door and greeted her, "Miss Crossley."

Georgina was sitting on the couch, flipping through the magazine in front of her. "Is Leanna back?"

"Yes. She just went back to her room."

Georgina then questioned, "Didn't I tell you to turn off the lights? Why did she come back so soon?"

The maid hesitated, not knowing what to say. "Well…"

Georgina frowned, knowing that it was not what she wanted to hear. So, she raised another question. "Did you leave the study open?"

"Y-Yes, I did. Miss McKinney even took a glance at the study when she came back. I think she noticed that the door was left ajar."

Georgina snorted coldly and continued flipping through her magazine. "Okay, keep an eye on her from now on and inform me as soon as she enters the study."

The maid then expressed her worries. "But Mr. Crossley isn't at home these days. If he finds out what we did, will he—"

"What's there to worry about when I'm here?"

Hearing that, the maid quickly lowered her head, not daring to speak again.

Georgina then instructed, "Leave if there's nothing else you want to say. Leanna isn't dumb. She will pick a time when no one is around, so don't go to sleep tonight and stay outside the study."

"Yes, miss," replied the maid.

"You may leave now."

Once the maid left, Georgina shut the magazine and tossed it on the table in annoyance.

She used to have something on Leanna, but she suffered a huge loss because of it, so she couldn't just let it go. Moreover, she already made someone install a surveillance camera in the study in advance. As long as Leanna sneaked in alone, she would have a reason to drive her out of Crossley Residence, leaving her no chance of finding any clues.
