Jonathan could only bitterly inside. I think you should worry about yourself first! You are in much deeper
trouble than you think you are!
In actuality, he had already suppressed the incident concerning Leanna.
Aidan continued, “This woman wouldn’t even know what caused her downfall upon death if it wasn’t for
me.”
“President Pearson…”
“From the charity event last time up until today’s scandal, it looks like someone desperately wanted her
reputation to be ruined. Therefore, whoever we should be looking into now will be the person who
would benefit the most from Leanna’s departure from Lux.”
Pondering for a while, Jonathan knew what he was getting at. “What you mean… is the perpetrator
might be an employee of Lux?”
While leaning against his chair with a cold look, Aidan replied, “That sharp tongue of hers must’ve
pissed a lot of people off. Let’s start off with the ones that are the most suspicious.”
“Understood.” Jonathan almost left the office before he turned back. “Then… What about the other
matters?”
“There’s no point in worrying ourselves with things that we have no control over. She’ll naturally stop
when the desired outcome is achieved.”
Jonathan was rather shocked upon this statement. “President Pearson, you know who’s the
mastermind?”
In return, Aidan only lifted his gaze at him emotionlessly which made Jonathan reply, “I’ll get to
business on Madam’s affairs right now.”
After he left, the office descended into silence.
Standing up, Aidan arrived in front of the window with both hands in his pocket as he stared at the busy
street below while deep in thought.
It was moments later when the phone on the table rang.
Turning back, he noticed it was from Leanna yet chose not to move from the spot.
The phone rang until the ringtone ended and the screen faded to darkness.
Directing his gaze elsewhere, he stood for another few minutes before picking up his phone and dialing
back.
It was only a few seconds when Leanna’s voice came from the other side. “President Pearson, were
you busy just now?”
He grunted coldly. “I was.”
It sounded as if even uttering a word more was too much for him.
“I see. You should continue your work, then. I won’t hold you up any longer.”
Just as she wanted to hang up, she heard his voice in an upset tone. “Speak.”
She then replied carefully, “Miss Fletcher called me earlier. She’s very worried about you.”
“What’s there to worry about? It’s not like I’ll kill myself or whatever.”
Leanna was originally concerned about him, but after hearing how rude he was, she grew a bit
frustrated. “President Pearson, do you have to talk like this?”
Looking straight ahead, Aidan seemed to have recalled something when he saw his reflection from the
window.
It was then that he uttered, “I’m sorry about that. Could you repeat your question?”
Leanna did not.
“I’m fine. She doesn’t have to worry about anything,” he continued.
“Then… If you’re really fine, give her a call.”
“I got it.”
“Okay, that’s all. I’m hanging up.”
At that moment, Aidan suddenly called out to her. “Leanna.”
His tone made her heart skip a beat. “What?”
“I’m giving you one last chance.” He continued gently, “Do you want to get back together with me?”
After a long pause, she replied, “Why are you bringing this up now?”
“Just answer me.”
“Aren’t you going to marry Miss Crossley?”
Her continuous questions made Aidan respond, “Alright. Enough with your excuses. You wasted your
chance.”
The call ended abruptly.
Leanna was then left with the disconnect tone.
Looking outside the window, she felt a little melancholic.
What is that b*stard doing again? He keeps testing my patience out of nowhere.
It was then that someone knocked on the door.
Rubbing her eyes, she went to open it.
…
On the other hand, Queenie, who was watching the shift in attention on the internet, became restless
and fidgety.
She knew that the journalists would not dare to expose the Pearson Group; frankly, she only wanted to
use them to let the public know that Leanna was a kept woman and that she had an illegitimate child.
Yet, she never planned for things to spiral out of her control.
Obviously, someone has pointed out the location to be Pearson Family Estate before highlighting the
topic about the illegitimate child. In the end, they actually directed all the attention to Aidan Pearson!!!
Queenie knew that things were completely out of hand now. In her worst case scenario, she might even
be dragged into this mess.
In the midst of her helplessness, her phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was an unregistered phone
number, she quickly picked it up. “Hello, is this Ron?”
On the other end, Ron paused before speaking, “Queenie, I think they found me. So, this might be the
last time I can help you.”
“Where are you, Ron?” asked Queenie.
“You don’t have to worry, Queenie. I told you that no matter what happens, I will bear it all by myself. I
will not drag you down with me.”
Even though he said that, she was still worried. “But… But…”
“Live a good life, Queenie. Don’t be like me. Don’t live a life where you can only survive in the
shadows.”
As soon as he said that, sounds of quickened footsteps could be heard from Ron’s side. Queenie could
only hear him mumbling, “When?” before a splash of impact was heard.
It turned out that he had thrown the phone into the water.
To that, she breathed a sigh of relief. If that’s what I think happened, then I’m sure they won’t be able to
find me even if they track down the perpetrators.
Still holding onto her phone, she hesitated for a while before calling someone.
After the line connected, she said softly, “It’s me, Miss Crossley.”
Georgina smiled. “Hello, Miss Wojzicki. Is there anything I can help you with?”
“About the scandal online, I wanted to ask if that will affect Pearson Group in any way?”
“What do you mean by this, Miss Wojzicki?”
Queenie hastily explained, “Please don’t misunderstand, Miss Crossley. It’s because… It’s because…”
In a state of panic, she did not know what to say as she only uttered after a while, “I was once
sponsored by the company to go to Aeras for further studies. After I came back, the Pearson Group
also helped me out. Regardless of anything, it is true that I owe them a lot, so I wanted to clear up my
confusion concerning the sudden scandal.”
“Oh, I see.” Georgina continued in a gentle manner, “Actually, I’m not too sure about the entire situation
myself. How about this? I’ll ask around and inform you later. Is that okay with you?”
“Of course. Thank you for your help, Miss Crossley.”
“No worries. It’s just that since this happened so suddenly, Pearson Group’s stock price has been
affected quite severely by this.”
Her words had nearly made Queenie’s heart beat out of chest, but she did not dare to say much in fear
of exposing herself. Therefore, she could only say, “I’ll thank you in advance then, Miss Crossley.
Please tell me if there’s anything that I can do to help.”
“Thank you for your concern, Miss Wojzicki,” Georgina replied.
After hanging up, Queenie looked at the various news articles on her phone only to notice that the
comments had lessened. Looks like the people of Pearson Group have begun to make their move.
Yet, it was this exact turn of events that struck fear into her heart.
Once they clean up the scandal online, they will be sure to trace the roots back to me.
