In the car, Georgina took the jewelry box that was handed out to her. Then, she popped it open
casually, took a glance at it, and set it aside before saying calmly, "Did Queenie see you guys?"
"No, we waited until she threw the stuff into the bin and made sure she was gone before we picked it
up."
A smirk spread across her face. "This trick of hers is not bad, but too bad. It seems like she doesn't
know Leanna McKinney's true identity. Otherwise, all her efforts wouldn't have gone to waste."
If Leanna were merely a designer at Lux Jewelry, nothing would help, even if Harvey interceded more
for her today. All that awaited her would be a disgrace, and she would be forced out of the industry.
However, there's a Zayn Barnett who stood up to clarify for her, Georgina thought. Furthermore…
The look in her eyes turned a few notches colder. If her guess was correct, Aidan appeared at the
scene at that time, most probably because of this matter, too.
Soon, the black sedan slowly pulled into her home.
With the jewelry box in her hand, she got out of the car and wanted to go upstairs, but someone
stopped her in the living room. "Gina."
Turning back, she saw the middle-aged man standing not far off. "Dad, you're still awake?"
Lloyd Crossley nodded. "Come here. I have something to ask you."
Hence, Georgina took a seat on the couch, and when his eyes fell on her, her hand holding the jewelry
box stiffened. Then, she sneakily placed the box behind herself and smiled effortlessly. "What's up,
Dad?"
"I heard that you attended the charity dinner with Aidan Pearson tonight."
"Yes," she admitted.
Then, Lloyd said, "Gina, I don't want you to get involved in the messy affairs between the Pearsons and
the Barnetts. Aidan Pearson is an unfathomable man, and you—"
"Dad," she interjected. "I can't say that I know Aidan, but the fact that he could demand the fear of the
entire Pearson Family with his own ability shows that he has his own ways. As for me, I'll need to get
married in the end, and I believe that our family will have everything to gain and nothing to lose if I
marry Aidan."
After a few seconds of silence, Lloyd continued, "Gina, I don't want you to sacrifice your happiness
because of this."
"Dad, I like Aidan, and I'm willing to marry him," she said. "Actually, I've liked him for a very long time.
Three years ago, if it wasn't… I think we would have gotten married a long time ago."
"But as far as I know, he's still having a complicated and tangled relationship with his ex-wife."
Nevertheless, she answered nonchalantly, "That woman married him because of money, so she
wouldn't leave so easily. Don't worry, Dad. I'll take care of this well."
He didn't comment more but merely said, "A few days later, I'll visit the Pearsons to discuss this. Have
an early rest." Then, he stood up and couldn't help but cough a few times violently.
She immediately rushed over and rubbed his back soothingly as she asked, "Dad, should I call the
doctor?"
"It's alright. It's just an old ailment. The weather turned cold recently, and it's acting up again. No
problem."
When Georgina wanted to interject, she instead saw the burn marks on his neck.
Lloyd pulled up his collar and hid the burns when he noticed her stare. "I'm fine. Go to bed."
After she went upstairs, Lloyd was about to go as well when the jewelry box on the couch caught his
eye. He picked it up and wanted to bring it to Georgina, but he accidentally opened the box, and a
necklace slid out.
He caught the necklace, and when he saw the pendant, he couldn't help but stare at it in a daze.
In the meantime, Georgina only remembered that the necklace was still downstairs when she was back
in her room, and when she returned to retrieve it, she happened to see this scene.
Softly, she said, "Dad?"
Jerking back to his senses, he asked, "Did you just buy this?"
An inexplicable anxiety swam around inside her as she nodded. "I got a designer to have this specially
designed. Is there a problem, Dad?"
Lloyd smiled. "No, there isn't. I just think that the designer is good because they are actually able to
integrate the elements of a pocket watch into a necklace, which is quite talented."
Then, he placed the necklace back into the jewelry box, passed it to Georgina, and returned to his
bedroom.
Meanwhile, she watched his back and breathed a sigh of relief.
…
At Castor Villa, Leanna immediately regretted it when she held onto Aidan's shirt. Just a second ago,
the air was tense as they were in an argument, but she lost all her momentum with this.
When she wanted to retreat, Aidan placed his arm around her waist and raised his brows at her as
though telling her that she was the one who threw herself at him.
Leanna inhaled sharply as she composed herself. "President Pearson, let me remind you one last time
that you're not being fair to your fiancée, Miss Crossley, by doing this!"
"Do you believe her that much?"
"Well, you didn't deny it as well at that time, did you?"
"In your eyes, not denying is admittance?"
I really take my hat off this jerk's logic, she thought, gritting her teeth. "Yes!"
"Unfortunately, my opinions with you are the complete opposite," he said, which rendered her
speechless. "Leanna McKinney, I have my plans, and the world is not only in black and white as you
see it."
"You truly have a talent for sounding like a person on a high horse, President Pearson. Is this the
reason why you're a two-timer?"
He released her and replied composedly, "How am I a two-timer when you didn't remarry me?"
Leanna felt that she couldn't verbally outwit him as she thought furiously, This jerk won't even admit
that he has his hands all over me from time to time!
"No matter what, I'm thankful for your help during this period of time, but I'll figure a way out for myself
after this. Please don't worry about me," she said.
However, he merely looked at her and spoke calmly, "Leanna, do you really think that I'm negotiating
with you?"
At that moment, Leanna felt a shiver down her spine. That's right. He's not negotiating with me, she
realized.
Whether or not she could walk out this door wasn't up to her guts but to Aidan's approval. She was
staying here under the name of being protected when in fact, he held her in captivity.
At the end of the day, it was easy for people to get carried away. After a taste of honey, she thought she
had candy and not a firecracker with a candy wrapping.
She pursed her lips and said no more but turned upstairs and dragged her luggage back into the room.
Until he heard the sound of the door closing; only then did Aidan reach out his hand to rub his temples
before calling a number. "What are the results?"
"Yes, I did, President Pearson. The man in the surveillance is Ron Sedley. He…"
When Jonathan trailed off, Aidan urged impatiently, "Speak."
Then, hastily, Jonathan answered, "He's an illegal money lender, and Jethro borrowed most of the
money from him. Also… Three years ago, he was the one in cahoots with Jethro to send Madam to
Patheon Club."
"He doesn't have a reason to harm Leanna. Find him," Aidan instructed.
"He probably sensed that we're checking up on him, so he has already slipped away."
It would be difficult to find a thug like Ron, who was always hanging out in various dodgy places. Plus,
he was as slippery as an eel, so it would be difficult to catch him unless he came out of his own volition.
"Spread the word around. Put a bounty of one million for him."
