I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 24



Chapter 24 Forgotten About Their Divorce Typically, Jonathan was able to come up with various reasons; it was usually either a
standard gift from their company that everyone received or he claimed that it was a gift from the company they collaborated with.
Inside the Rolls-Royce, the atmosphere suddenly became eerily silent. Aidan opened his eyes and they were full of coldness. It
had been more than a month, but he kept forgetting about their divorce. There were some habits that were deeply entrenched in
him, so it was pretty much impossible to change within this timeframe. However, Leanna was the exact opposite as she was able
to move on swiftly. Jonathan spoke, “President Pearson, Lux Jewelry is organizing a show next week. Since we have previously
collaborated with them, should we send them gifts to express our congratulations? We don’t have to send gifts to the entire
company. We can just focus on the editors, the photographers, and... perhaps their designer as well?” Aidan remained silent for
several seconds before suddenly mentioning, “There are some artists from Pearson Group involved in the show, so we should
actually send them gifts.” Finally, Jonathan heaved a sigh of relief and started preparing gifts for everyone else. As such, three
days later, the staff from the personal assistant office of Pearson Group arrived at Lux Jewelry and started to distribute gifts.
Harvey was confused to receive the gift and he was momentarily stunned. What’s going on here? Why did Aidan suddenly turn
into such a friendly guy? Some of the photographers that received the gifts were shocked as well. This is unexpected! Leanna,
the only contracted designer of Lux Jewelry, was the only person who kept her cool and maintained a composed look upon
seeing the present, which had gone through so many hurdles to arrive in her hands. The pantry was located next to Leanna’s
desk and there were a few staff furiously gossiping about the matter at the moment. “Look! I was right indeed! Pearson Group
has been giving our company preferential treatment lately. It must be because they’re attempting to pave the way for Mia.
President Pearson’s done so much just to win over a woman and his actions are one of a kind!” “It’s no wonder then... I recently
heard that Mr. Mancini had the notion of changing the ambassador for the First Love series. Mia has found Pearson Group to
back her and they’re a well-established company, so it’s no wonder that Mia was able to defeat so many other impressive models
and be selected for the show.” “I heard that President Pearson’s wife is quite pretty and her looks are comparable to Mia’s. He
doesn’t even need to...” “Well, you’re too naive here. Even if one has a stunning wife at home, one would still prefer the woman
outside. Mia may appear to be a clueless bimbo, but she’s actually really good at winning men’s affections.” “I’ve got another
gossip to share and it’s a juicy one. President Pearson and his wife have gotten a divorce, so Mia might actually succeed in
becoming his wife!” “Oh my gosh. It then makes sense how she’s got such great resources. She seems ready to marry into a
wealthy family. But then, the Pearson family is such a reputable family, would they be able to accept her?” “That’s no big deal. I
recently got word that President Pearson’s ex-wife was sold into service at Patheon Club. She was allowed to marry into the
family, so surely Mia would be allowed to as well.” Zoe heard the last sentence upon walking into the pantry and instantly raged
at them, “Why are you guys gossiping nonsense right now during your working hours? If you guys don’t wish to work, then just
hand over your resignation letters!” The others had never seen Zoe lose her temper like this. The gossipers quickly turned
awkward and disbanded to their respective seats. After they left, Zoe walked to stand in front of Leanna and comforted, “Nana,
they’re just spouting nonsense, so don’t take it personally.” Leanna came back to her senses with a smile. “It’s fine. Did you

receive a gift too?” Naturally, Zoe, a relatively reputable photographer, received an exquisite gift too. She continued to hurl insults
at the despicable couple furiously for ten minutes before finally calming down and asked, “The fashion show is starting next
week. How’s the preparation work going?” “It’s great. Everything is going well.” After Leanna left Lux Jewelry, she headed off to
the hospital as it was the day of her pregnancy check-up. The doctor mentioned that the child she was carrying was developing
well and had already grown from the size of a little bean to a pea. After her checkup, she had just walked out of the room when
she heard a male voice ring out from behind, “Leanna?” She instantly froze and gradually turned her head. At that moment, Zayn
was striding toward her and grabbed her wrist. “It’s you indeed... Leanna, I would like to have a proper chat with you. Can you
spare me some time, please?” She extricated her hand from his and came up with a reply after quite some time, “Okay.” They
sat across from each other inside the cafe right next to the hospital and neither of them spoke a word for quite some time.
Finally, time went by and he finally pursed his lips to voice out, “Leanna, three years ago—” “I’m very sorry for what happened
three years ago. If you’re mainly here for a reason why, then I can reveal it to you right now,” she mentioned briefly, “During the
day that I won the award, I received news that my dad had owed one million to the loan sharks. I wanted to trade the opportunity
to go to Aeras for cash, but my request was rejected. Subsequently, you must have also heard about everything else that
happened from Anna.” Zayn maintained a deep furrowed look on his face and was shocked to hear the reason to be out of his
expectation. “Why didn’t you tell me the truth directly? I could have helped...” Leanna interjected, “How could you have helped?
By giving me money to pay off the debt? Zayn, we aren’t related to each other, so how could I possibly get you to help me pay off
the debt?” “Leanna, you should know how I feel about you. We were so close to getting together with each other. It wasn’t a
huge sum, so you could have just asked me directly for it.” She smiled and shook her head. “I’m thankful that we didn’t end up
getting together back then. At least we retained that pure relationship we had. I didn’t want you to see the type of environment I
grew up in. I didn’t want you to know that I had such a horrible father either. You’re right; perhaps you wouldn’t mind at all giving
me money to pay off his debts once or twice, but if this went on over time, are you sure that you wouldn’t get frustrated?” “Am I
actually that unreliable in your eyes?” “This isn’t a matter of reliability. Most of the time, I can’t even take this myself. I wanted to
run off to somewhere where no one knows me, but then there are some things that I’ll never ever be able to get away from.”
Zayn replied, “What about right now? I know that you’re divorced from Aidan. You could at least turn around and take a look. I’m
honestly—” However, Leanna spoke in a soft voice, “You’ve seen where I just came out from, right?” At that point, he slowly
clenched the hand he placed on the table and formed a fist. Of course, he saw that. However, he tried to come up with all sorts
of excuses in his mind to convince himself. Perhaps she’s just there to keep her friend company? Or she could be there just to
visit someone? However, with the truth placed in front of him right now, there was no way he could continue to deny it. Zayn was
slightly resigned. “Does Aidan know about this?” “I don’t plan to let him know, so could you keep this a secret for me?” “Of
course.” After Leanna left, Zayn walked out of the cafe and he was seen significantly dejected. He thought, If only I made a move
back then to enter into a relationship with Leanna before the competition and didn’t insist on fulfilling the promise in Aeras, then
things might have been different right now. She wouldn’t have married Aidan and we wouldn’t have let so much get past us.

“Zayn, why did you leave to come here?” Carly Barnett called out his name and reached out her hand to wave in front of him
upon noticing his daze. “What’s going on in your mind?” Zayn came back to his senses, “Carly.” Meanwhile, his sister huffed,
“Hey! You promised to come with me to the pregnancy checkup, but then you disappeared in a blink of an eye. If Georgina hadn’t
come along today, it would be so dangerous for me to walk about in such a heavily pregnant state. What if something happened
to me?” Next to Carly was Georgina who helped her around before letting out a smile. “Carly, don’t say that. The doctor
mentioned that the baby is growing well inside, so nothing will happen to you.” “See, Gina’s the best. It would be great if only
you’d be willing to marry Zayn. It’s too bad that the two of you have never seen eye to eye since you were kids. Gosh. This kid
here is getting older by the day, but he has never brought a girlfriend home with him. My parents are worried sick.” Georgina
responded, “Carly, I heard that the pretty lady from the Pearson Family seems to be pursuing Zayn lately.”
