"I know you have suspicion that I'm up to something, but as I've mentioned previously, I'm willing to
write a covenant. You can even hire a lawyer and cameraman to witness and record the entire process
when we sign the divorce paper. That will be enough to prove that I'm the one who's asking for it
without demanding a single penny from you."
Leanna's determined stance quelled Aidan as he pursed his lips into a thin line.
"Or… are you afraid that I'll bring up the divorce to ruin your family's name? You can put your worries to
a rest because I, Leanna McKinney, promise that I will never take advantage of you on this matter. I'll
be damned if I break my promise."
A couple of minutes later, he finally responded, "How am I supposed to believe in you?"
A vexed Leanna huffed, "What do you want me to do then? Is it your wish to see your wife and mistress
on good terms? Aidan Pearson, I'm telling you, I'd rather die than raise someone else's child."
Aidan merely snorted at that. Without words, she knew well that he communicated contempt as he was
certain that she was no less different from Mia, deeming her to be in no position to comment about
others.
When she was about to give her last-ditch effort, he piped up, "I'm going on a business trip tomorrow.
Let's talk after I'm back."
Leanna smiled instantly. "That's not a problem. I'll wait no matter how long it takes. Just inform me once
you're back."
As her attitude did a one-eighty, his face dimmed before heading upstairs. What a shameless woman!
Time flew as Leanna sent the designs to Harvey just as when the one-week deadline was approaching.
On the night of that very same day, he sent her a text that his boss had approved of it and she was
required to come over tomorrow to sign the contract.
While reading his message, she heaved a sigh of relief as she was afraid that her work would not meet
their standard.
This project of Lux Jewelry had been going on for a while now. Ever since they had decided to release
their first collection, a designer was all that they needed.
Now that Leanna would be coming onboard, they wished to see some advances in its progress
because the company's anniversary was just one month ahead. In conjunction with the celebratory
occasion, the magazine intended to hold a press conference to announce their brand to the press.
Aside from Leanna's necklace, the other mainstay products included the bracelet and ring. Once the
drafts were approved by the magazine, they could proceed with the refinement prior to the production.
Therefore, it would be hectic to finish everything within a month; they were left with not much time.
In order to not ruin the press conference, Leanna was always on her toes as she had been sketching at
home besides choosing the materials for the jewelry.
She needed to make the final product herself before sending it to the factory for mass production after
the press conference. Thus, she was so busy that she had forgotten about the divorce, let alone
knowing of Aidan's return. Regardless of the circumstances, he did not contact her this whole time.
Deciding to take some rest, Leanna set down the pencil when her phone atop the table vibrated. Her
brows knitted tightly the moment she realized that it was Jethro. She picked up the phone when he
called for the second time.
"Leanna, Louis is going to sit for the SAT next year. We need some money for his tuition fees."
"How much is it?"
"Let me recall the amount… The tuition fees are very expensive. Why don't you give me thirty
thousand? I'll save the balance for his next semester."
Leanna remained calm. "First of all, Louis will be taking the exam this year; secondly, he's the top
scholar in town, so he doesn't need tuition; lastly, I've never heard of any tuition center that charges
that much."
As his schemes were seen through like a glass, Jethro was livid. "Enough of the excuses. Can't you
just give me the money?"
"I'm broke."
"But you got your rich husband. Thirty thousand means nothing to him."
"There's no free lunch in this world. No matter how rich he is, it has nothing to do with me. Besides,
we've signed the divorce papers, so I have no reason to ask him for money."
"What?!" He flipped out. "Who said that you're allowed to divorce? Have you even discussed it with
me? Even if you have divorced, he will give you half of his assets. There's no way that you have
nothing! Leanna McKinney, are you going to let your father rot to death?! Transfer me the money right
this instant! Otherwise, you'll never get away with it!"
"I have nothing. Not even a cent." Having said that, she ended the call right away.
Soon, Louis rang her. "Did Jethro ask you for money? Don't give it to him matter what he says. He went
to gamble again lately and ended up owing a few thousands. He's hiding somewhere at the moment."
"I know. I'm not planning to give him anything."
On the day Leanna paid off Jethro's hundreds of thousands worth of debt, she had mentioned that she
would not give a fig about his matters anymore even if he was dead.
Still, not everyone turned over a new leaf that easily; he had been trying to deceive her all these years
by lying that he needed surgery for his broken leg or to settle a fight involving Louis.
Jethro knew her character well; even though she would ignore him, she would never ignore the issue
when it came to Louis. Consequently, the siblings had fallen for his ruse twice. Now that they had
learned their lessons the hard way, they would not feel a thing in the face of his whining and tantrums.
"Have you thought of which university you want to go to?" inquired Leanna.
"Yeah."
She paused a moment before adding, "Louis, do you wanna study abroad? I still have enough money
to pay for the tuition fees. You can also apply for scholarships—"
She wished she could send Louis away from their toxic father, so that Louis would not be stuck in the
gutter like she was.
"No, I'm going to stay in the country. I'm not going anywhere," interrupted Louis.
Knowing his temper, she let out a silent sigh. "You can pick wherever you want. Tell me when you need
money."
"Save the money for yourself. I can earn it on my own." Louis suddenly asked, "Has he been nice to
you?"
The conversation went silent for a while when Aidan was brought into the topic. "Hmm. Yeah. Louis, I'm
going to file a divorce." Leanna smiled.
Louis held his tongue for a moment as though the announcement was not a surprise to him. "Okay. I'll
take care of you in the future."
She grinned. "Why do I need that when I have hands and legs to fend for myself? Just focus on your
studies."
After hanging up the call, Leanna went out of her room to see a pale Zoe slumping on the couch
wearily. "Zoe, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"
Zoe shook her head while wheezing, "I'm on my menstruation. I'll be fine after taking some rest."
Leanna poured Zoe a glass of warm water. "That won't do. I'll buy a hot water bottle and some
painkillers downstairs. Would you like to have something to eat?"
At the mention of food, Zoe regained her energy and ordered something for herself. "Leanna, you're
the best. That b*stard must be blind for not loving you."
