I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 659 As Dreamy as Always

Although Leanna refused Aidan's offer to "unveil the mystery in advance" if she "paid" him, she had a vague idea of

what was going on as she lay in bed.

Just like what Daphne said, Theodore wouldn't have come up with an apology letter out of nowhere.

But Aidan did not order Jonathan to do anything about an apology letter. Not only that, Aidan seemed to be hinting

at something by mentioning Louis right at this moment.

If I'm right, Louis probably went to confront Theodore.

However, she had to wait until tomorrow to ask how Louis managed to make Theodore so willingly write an apology

letter.

Just as Leanna was deep in her thoughts, she was suddenly pulled against someone's chest from behind.

"You're still awake?" Aidan asked.

"I'm about to—"

She hadn't even finished her words when the man sealed her lips. After the kiss, he growled in a raspy voice, "Let's

not sleep if you can't fall asleep, hmm?"

And who told you I can't fall asleep? she quietly fumed.

The temperature in the bedroom slowly began to increase.

Leanna, who suddenly thought of something, gasped for air as she asked, "Will you be back for dinner tomorrow?"

"Not tomorrow. The three of you should go ahead without me."

"But you said… it's going to end soon."

"Mhm." He kissed her fingers. "The board meeting… is in three days."

Instead of asking more questions, she proceeded to encircle her arms around his neck.

There was a sudden shower in the middle of the night that lasted until the next morning. Because of that, the sky

was foggy as sparse raindrops fell.

Tina was already waiting at the recording site when Daphne arrived. Compared to before, she was surprisingly

quiet today. She even immediately looked away and looked down at her phone after sneaking a glance at Daphne.

Daphne's assistant told Daphne in a hushed voice, "Tina must be scared out of her wits now. That scumbag and his

ex-wife have both come out to clarify and apologize. Tina the sh*t-stirrer, on the other hand, only ended up stinking

all over without getting any benefits."

"At least this will keep her quiet for some time," Daphne echoed as she looked around, only to not find Louis

anywhere.

As she looked away and took out her phone, her assistant asked, "Daph, are you looking for Louis?"

"I…" Daphne froze.

Her words felt like they were stuck in her throat.

"When I came in, I heard some staff members talking about how the director brought him to the makeup artists to

see if they could conceal the injuries on his face."

Daphne unknowingly frowned upon hearing that. "How did he get hurt?"

"No clue, he—"

As soon as the assistant began to speak, Louis and the director walked over.

The makeup could hide the bruise on his face, but the injuries on the corner of his lips and nose bridge were visible

as could be.

The director and a few camera operators had a quick discussion about how they should film.

Louis had become the kingpin of the whole team after filming all the seasons.

He came here today to tell the director about his situation and request a one-week leave.

It wasn't like he must be here for the filming, but the director thought that Louis' wounds weren't so severe that he

needed one week off.

After the director and a few members of the crew had a discussion, they decided to take some photos and post

them later when the time was right. They would come up with a plan to handle it if the public reacted fervidly to the

photos.

Filming started soon enough.

Daphne, for a few times now, began to zone out when she looked at Louis.

The film crew thought that she was still affected by what happened yesterday, and they chose not to say anything.

They only took a short break for a few minutes so that the celebrities could take a rest.

Daphne stepped aside and exhaled as she took a cup of water.

Seeing this, her assistant asked softly, "Daph, do you feel unwell?"

Daphne massaged the bridge of her nose. "I'm alright."

The assistant took the cup from her when she finished her water. "I'll get you some warm water," the assistant

offered.

Louis came over right when the assistant left. Standing in front of Daphne, he had his thin lips pursed as if he had

something to say.

"What's the matter?" Daphne asked when she met his eyes.

He only answered her after a long minute. "Leanna wanted me to tell you to have dinner at her place tonight."

"Sure." She nodded. "Got it."

Louis didn't say anything else, but when he turned to leave, Daphne suddenly called out to him.

"What's with… the injuries on your face? Did you get in a fight?"

He turned to her. "It's nothing. I came across two thugs when I was on my way home yesterday."

"That sounds so dangerous! Remember to call the cops first thing if you ever encounter something like that again."

"Okay."

The crew resumed filming after a few minutes.

…

Leanna, Zoe, and Charlotte went to the supermarket to buy some cooking ingredients in the afternoon.

Charlotte walked in front as she pushed a shopping cart. The other women could tell she was oozing with happiness

from her back.

However, Leanna noticed that Zoe was distracted. "What's wrong?" she asked.

Hearing her voice, Zoe let out a deep sigh and shook her head. "Nothing much."

"Did something happen to Daniel again?"

"It's not that. It's just… I think it's my problem. My mind is everywhere. It has been a few days since I last got in

contact with him."

"Did you talk to Elijah about this?"

Zoe explained, "I didn't. What if something is keeping Daniel busy? And it doesn't feel right to bother Elijah with

something so trivial."

"Give it some time, then. I'm sure nothing bad happened."

Zoe let out another sigh. "Let's not talk about this. Aren't you and President Presgrave going on a trip? Have you

chosen a place?"

"Yup, it's an islet near Siebenna."

"Sounds nice. You get to watch the ocean and enjoy the sea breeze. And it's not as crowded there compared to

here. It must be peaceful. So, when are you leaving?"

"Probably next weekend."

Aidan said that there was a board meeting in three days. They could leave after he was done with work and they

packed up a little.

"Have the time of your life, then. Just leave everything here to me."

Leanna chuckled upon hearing that. "There's tons of work left to do. We'll be back after a few days of fun."

After they were done shopping, they started leaving for Leanna's place. That was when Leanna received a photo

from Waylen.

Noah, who was in the photo, had grown up a lot. He was smilingly crawling around on the climbing mat with a pile

of toys sitting in front of him.

That put a smile on Leanna's face. After replying to Waylen's message, she proceeded to lower the car window and

watch the passing scenery.

The setting sun had dyed half the sky far away.

Her days recently had all felt like this. It was as though her days ahead were filled with hope and light.

At 8.00PM, Daphne and Louis came into the house with one person ahead of the other.

Zoe's eyes stayed on Louis' face for a few seconds when she suddenly jumped out of her seat and demanded,

"What happened? Did you get into a fight? Who did this to you?!"

Louis turned his head in another direction. "I'm alright. The injuries aren't that serious."

"You call that 'not serious'? You're disfigured! Your lady fans are going to have their hearts broken if they see you.

Gosh…"

Leanna came out of the kitchen then. "It's okay. He's not badly hurt."

Charlotte nodded in agreement. As she hugged a pillow, she solemnly commented, "He is as dreamy as always."

Everyone in the house immediately whipped their heads in her direction the moment she uttered those words.

Charlotte's face had gone red in an instant. She stammered, "I-I mean, he looks even hotter with those injuries— N-

No! What I'm trying to say is that, those wounds don't affect his looks…"
