When Leanna and Zoe returned to the room, everyone had almost finished their meal and was chatting
with one another.
When Maya saw this, she said even more cynically, “You two are indeed very busy. We’ve all been
waiting for you for a long time. Even Elijah, a businessman, isn’t as busy as you two.”
Before Zoe could respond, Elijah replied, “I’m not usually that busy. Those who work for me are the
ones who do the majority of the work.”
Not long ago, Maya was still bragging about her husband’s position as an executive for a large
corporation, which kept him so busy that he rarely returned home. But what about the executive level?
To put it bluntly, he was just an employee. Elijah responded well to this remark, and it was clear who he
meant.
Everyone else at the dining table had their corners of their mouths quirked up and secretly smiled.
Maya only attended today’s class reunion because she wanted to boast about marrying a wealthy man.
She did not anticipate that she would shoot herself in the foot, though. She was enraged, but she
couldn’t lash out at Elijah since he hadn’t expressly said that his reply was directed at her. As a result,
she could only grit her teeth and suppress her anger.
After the reunion, everyone departed one at a time. He glanced at Leanna and Zoe and said, “I have
nothing to do, so I’ll give you a ride home.”
Leanna smiled politely in response. “It is not necessary. We have a car, so let’s go.”
Zoe immediately said, “My car has broken down!”
Leanna was dumbfounded.
Zoe said with a straight face, “Nana, remember how my car was acting up on our way here? As soon
as we parked it in the basement, it stopped moving.”
“Why don’t I …”
“Of course you wouldn’t know that! You weren’t the one driving,” Zoe said as she dragged Leanna
toward Elijah’s car. Then, she thanked him.
Elijah smiled. “You’re welcome.”
Zoe opened the door on the passenger side and shoved Leanna into the seat. “Sit here. I’m feeling a
bit unwell, so I’m gonna sit alone in the back seat.”
Leanna couldn’t say anything. It was clear to her at this time what her intentions were. She couldn’t say
no directly in Elijah’s presence, so all she could do was glare at her quietly and fasten her seatbelt.
Zoe got into the back seat while humming a tune and pretending not to notice the expression in her
eyes.
Elijah asked, “Where do you stay?”
Zoe replied, “Ah… it doesn’t matter where we stay. If you’re free, just drive us around. We just ate
dinner, so it’s good to give the food some time to digest.”
Leanna couldn’t be bothered to blow her cover. Who can digest food while sitting in a car? “Sorry to
trouble you, but thanks for the ride,” she replied after giving him their address.
He was surprised to hear the address she gave him. “Are you two staying there?”
Zoe suddenly leaned toward them. “Don’t tell me you’re staying there as well. What a coincidence!”
What do they call this again? Well, fate had brought these two together!
He shook his head with a smile. “No, I do not. My friend recently returned from abroad and is currently
residing there.”
She was a little disappointed. “Oh, that’s too bad,” she said after a brief pause. Then she said, “I’d like
to know who your friend is. Is your friend someone you’re close to and can visit frequently? If you’re
free, then…”
Leanna covered Zoe’s mouth and said to him apologetically, “Let’s go.”
Soon after Elijah started driving, he received a phone call requesting him to return to the office to deal
with an unanticipated situation. “I’m sorry, but I may not be able to drive you two around today,” he
apologized to Zoe with a smile.
Having overheard his phone conversation, Zoe nodded repeatedly. “Sure, no problem! We’ll do it next
time, then,” she said while taking a business card out of her bag and handing it to him. “This is the
address of our studio. You are welcome to visit and have fun at any time.”
Leanna said, “Elijah, just drop us at the side of the road. We can go back by ourselves.”
He replied, “It’s okay. I’m not in a hurry, and besides, we’ll be there soon.”
Seeing that he had no intention to stop, Leanna said nothing else. She merely rolled down the car
window and looked out the window impassively.
Twenty minutes later, the black Porsche stopped downstairs in front of the apartment. Zoe said, “We
won’t invite you upstairs for a cup of tea since you have something important to attend to at your office.
See you next time.”
Elijah nodded with a smile before turning to look at Leanna. “See you next time.”
After he left, Zoe lamented with a sigh, “A nice guy like Elijah is really hard to find. You’ve got to hold
onto …”
“Let’s go.”
She turned around and caught up with Leanna. “Hey, Nana, I really mean it. You should think about it. I
think he has feelings for you, so perhaps you two can try and work out a relationship.”
Pressing the elevator button, Leanna asked with a smile, “How do you know that he’s got feelings for
me?”
“Didn’t you notice that he looked at you differently? Not only that, he was especially tender toward you.”
“No, I didn’t notice it.”
Zoe continued on her own, “This kind of thing is always clear to the outsiders but not to the parties
involved, so it’s normal that you didn’t notice it.”
Leanna was lost for words.
Zoe then said, “Didn’t we agree to forget about Aidan that b*stard and start all over again? Elijah is
simply brought to you on a silver platter by God himself!”
“But didn’t you say that we should date a womanizer so that we’ll cheat on each other? Elijah doesn’t
seem like a womanizer to me.”
For the very first time, she was floored by her own words. She said falteringly, “W-Well, I did say that
when I was drunk, but it can’t be taken seriously, right? Seriously, I think Elijah is pretty nice. If you start
going out with him, you’ll definitely be the happiest woman in the world.”
Just as they were talking, the elevator door suddenly opened, and a tall and big mixed-race man
stepped out from the inside.
Zoe paused instantly as her eyes widened.
After the man left, the two ladies entered the elevator. Zoe whispered, “Hey, Nana, did you see that?
That guy’s so handsome! Oh, we must have the devil’s luck to have seen so many handsome guys
today!”
Leanna asked thoughtlessly, “Handsome guys? How many of them?”
Zoe replied, “Ain’t I right? Well, there’s Elijah and the mixed-race guy just now, and there’s Ai …”
Toward the end of her sentence, however, she hemmed and bit back the last syllable. Well, Aidan is a
b*stard, but he’s got good looks. To be honest, Elijah has changed a lot, but he’s slightly inferior to
Aidan.
She pondered for a moment before suggesting, “Zoe, let’s hire another designer when our studio is on
the right track.”
Zoe didn’t come to her senses for a moment. “Huh? Why?”
Not knowing how to explain the situation, Leanna let out a breath. Judging from what Aidan had said
before leaving at the time, she felt that he had no intention of letting her off just yet. As she had no idea
what else that b*stard would do, she feared that she might get Zoe into trouble. Because of that, she
was entertaining the idea of leaving everything to Zoe and quitting after the studio was on the right
track.
