Chapter 519
Meanwhile, in Lachstein, Dellshore, the meeting was suspended for the third time. When the person in
charge of the other party left, Jonathan whispered, "President Pearson."
Aidan leaned back into the chair with one hand placed on the office table, his fingertips tapping against
the table lightly. He murmured lightly, "They're trying to buy time."
"Buy time?" Jonathan looked puzzled. "But we're already here. Why are they trying to buy time?"
Aidan narrowed his eyes and glanced at his phone, which was switched off. "Leave now and contact
Highside to see if anything has happened."
Jonathan nodded. "Okay."
Due to the importance of this meeting, the mobile phones of both parties participating in the discussion
had to be turned off. Besides, there was no signal in the vicinity.
Not long after Jonathan's departure, the person in charge of the other party returned. There was no
sign of dignity and gravity from before. Instead, he was smiling like the spring breeze. "I'm very sorry
for making you wait so long, President Pearson."
Aidan looked at the other party indifferently without saying a word.
John took a document from his assistant and placed the file in front of Aidan. "I've instructed for the
contract to be reprinted. Please have a look, President Pearson. If there are no issues with the
contract, you can go ahead and sign the document."
Aidan glanced at the document and snorted coldly. He closed the file with a snap and threw it at the
other party. His tone was indifferent as he said, "Why don't you just ask me to give you the Pearson

Group directly?"
"What are you saying, President Pearson? We are businessmen. It's only natural for us to do business.
Besides, I can't afford to accept the gift even if you gave me the Pearson Group, President Pearson."
"The conditions you've asked clearly show that you don't think of yourself as a person."
When John heard the statement, he did not lose his temper and simply smiled genially. "President
Pearson, we not only need to look at the final profit but also the chips in our hands when discussing
business."
Aidan's black eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice became considerably colder. "How many chips do

you have?"
John replied calmly, "Well…"
At this moment, the door to the conference room opened. Jonathan hurried into the room and
whispered a few words to Aidan.
Aidan's expression sank in an instant. His stern and glacial facial features seemed covered in a layer of
frost. The aura he exuded also seemed to have made the private room considerably cooler.
Jonathan stood behind him quietly.
Only then did John finish the sentence he left trailing earlier. "President Pearson, do you think that the
value of the chip in my hand is enough for you to sign the contract?"
Aidan glared at John coldly. "You are very brave to dare to threaten me."
"You are flattering me, President Pearson. But isn't this always the case for doing business? The
greater the risk, the greater the rewards. If we don't gamble, how will we know what results we might

obtain?"
John glanced at the contract that Aidan had thrown back at him earlier and pushed the documents
back toward Aidan. The smile he wore never once left his face. "But now that I've met you, President
Pearson… I have the feeling that you are very different from what I had imagined. I used to admire you
in the past, thinking that you were the kind of person who could take action without being influenced by
factors like family and feelings. How else could you have achieved your current status at such a young
age? But I never imagined… I never imagined that you would make such a huge sacrifice for the sake
of a single woman."
Aidan said nothing and picked up the pen in front of him.
Jonathan was shocked by the sight and blurted out, "President Pearson…"
Before he could finish his sentence, Aidan had already signed his name on the contract.
John clapped slowly. "You did not hesitate in the slightest, President Pearson. That's truly admirable."
Aidan finished signing his name and placed down the pen. His voice was flat and unwavering yet
carried a trace of frigidness that seemed to penetrate one's bone. "You better pray that she is safe and
sound. Otherwise, you and the Pearson Family will vanish from the world."
Afterward, he left the conference room.
The smile gradually vanished from the corners of John's mouth. He snatched the document from the
table.
I did not expect Aidan to be so straightforward. Should I say he is foolish beyond hope? Or… does he

have another plan? In any case, my duty has been completed.
After Jonathan got into the car, he immediately asked, "President Pearson, what do we do now?"

Aidan answered coldly, "We return."
"Are we going to leave things here just like that? The contents of the contract are equivalent to giving
away three-fifths of the Pearson Group's shares. If the contract falls into the hands of the chairman, the
Pearson Group…"
Aidan said, "That is… if he has the ability to get the contract."
Once Jonathan saw the expression on Aidan's face, he instantly knew that he had other plans at play.
Thus, he quickly drove the car away without saying anything.
…
In the Pearson Family Estate, Justin spoke slowly under Leanna's gaze. "You're right. The Pearson
Family is indeed behind the incident in Lachstein."
Leanna frowned. "Have you always known?"
He shook his head. "I only learned about this not too long ago. They finished making their
arrangements before they informed me about everything."
"What are they trying to do? Aidan is currently in Lachstein…"
"Don't worry. As long as you're here, then Aidan will be safe."
She did not understand. "What do you mean?"
He glanced at the scenery outside and fell silent for some time before he answered, "They have two
plans in motion. Their first plan was to lure you to the Pearson Family Estate and then use you to
threaten Aidan into willingly handing over the shares of the Pearson Group."

Her frown deepened when Justin's words registered in her mind. Her presence here meant that their
plan had probably succeeded.

Leanna took a deep breath, restraining her temper as she tried to remain rational and calm. "What
about the second plan?"
Justin replied, "They had been planning this Lachstein plan for a long time. If that plan failed, they
would never allow Aidan to return."
"Never allow him to return… What do you mean?"
"Aside from luring you here, they had another purpose when they planned the reception tonight. If
something had really happened to Aidan abroad, then their next logical step was to make me the heir
of the Pearson Group."
She parted her mouth to speak, but it took a long time for her to finally make a sound. "The people you
mentioned… Do they include Old Master Pearson?"
Justin retracted his gaze and turned to her. "Yes."
Leanna exclaimed incredulously, "He wants to eliminate Aidan?"
He nodded lightly. "So, I had no other choice. I can only ask that you stay here for two days."
She was so shocked that she was at a loss for words.
When she packed Aidan's luggage the other night, she naively thought that he was only going on a
regular business trip. She never imagined that this trip to Lachstein would nearly cost him his life.
With that thought in mind, she quickly inquired, "Then, is he…"

"Don't worry. As long as they achieve their plans today, they will not make a move against Aidan. That
plan is nothing more than a last resort. Aidan is the president of the Pearson Group. If something
happened to him in Lachstein, it would cause a huge disturbance worldwide."
Leanna pursed her lips. "Thank you."
Since they were going to such lengths, then they were definitely forced into a desperate situation where
they could no longer afford to care about the consequences.
Therefore, if their plan tonight had failed, they would have truly gotten rid of Aidan.
Thank goodness…
Justin laughed bitterly, and there was no concealing the dejection on his face. "As long as you don't
hate me."
