On the way back in her car, beside herself with anger, Anna called her mother and said in annoyance,
“Mom, I want you to tell Dad to stop collaborating with that Constellation Tech! They’re in cahoots with
that skank!”
Taken aback, Anna’s mother replied, “Anna, what are you talking about?”
Anna looked extremely irked. “Aren’t we collaborating with that sh*t of a company? We should tell them
off! Get them away from us, as far as possible!”
On the other end of the line, Anna’s father took over the call. “Anna, what did you just say? Which
company are you talking about?”
“Constellation Tech. That rubbish of a man is clinging onto us since he knows that he can’t climb the
ladder himself. I must teach that rubbish a lesson.” Anna sneered.
Anna’s father frowned as he knew his daughter’s temper. With a thump of his heart, he asked, “Anna,
what did you do? Who did you meet from Constellation Tech?”
“Eli… something? I don’t know myself. I just know that rubbish isn’t worth it for me to remember his
name.”
His frown grew deeper. “Elijah Parker?”
An unperturbed Anna replied, “Sounds like him. He looks like a decent man, but unfortunately, his eyes
are just decorations since he chose to defend that skank.”
At that, Anna’s father choked on his breath. “Anna Pearson! What have you done?! Quickly apologize
to President Parker! We might still be able to salvage our deal!”
Anna immediately raised her voice. “What for?! Why should I apologize to that nobody?! Why do you
have to care about some business deal? Dropping that company won’t have any effect on us, but he
would be filled with regret when he loses the Pearson Group as his backer.”
Anna’s father shouted in anger, “The Pearson Group is a different matter! What does it have to do with
you?!”
“I…” Just as she wanted to retort, Anna’s expression changed, as she remembered that the illegitimate
child was in charge of Pearson Group now. After a brief pause, she continued, “What about it? He’s just
an illegitimate child. Uncle Gordon will have him replaced, sooner or later.”
“Do you think that the Pearson Group will be yours when Aidan steps down? Anna, get this into your
head: you’re only part of the Pearsons because of how sorry they felt toward Sienna. In other words,
your standing in the Pearson Family amounts to nothing. In fact, you’re in an even worse position than
that illegitimate child!”
“You’re lying! Not only am I a member of the Pearsons, I’m also the precious daughter of the Pearsons!
My standing is a hundred times better than that b*stard child!”
“Anna, you’re going to follow me tomorrow to apologize to President Parker.”
“Never! Go by yourself if you care so much!” After Anna ended the call with her teeth clenched and her
eyes full of hatred, she threw her phone down the car interior and shouted, “You’re all the same kind of
trash! The same kind of trash!”
…
In a certain restaurant.
When the dishes were served, Zoe took a glance at her watch “I need to take a phone call. You guys
go ahead. Don’t wait for me.”
Leanna looked at Zoe with hints of suspicion in her eyes.
Immediately raising the phone in her hand, Zoe showed Leanna the caller’s number on her phone
screen. “I really need to take this.”
As Leanna couldn’t say anything to that, Zoe left the two and went outside.
After she left, Elijah grinned and turned his attention toward Leanna. “Looks like the two of you are
always busy with work.”
With a faint smile, Leanna replied, “I wouldn’t say so. It’s because there’s only me and Zoe right now.
It’ll be better after we hire two additional hands.”
It did not take long for Elijah to steer the conversation into a different topic with his interesting and polite
mannerisms. With the awkwardness between them gradually disappearing after Zoe had left them
alone, they enjoyed their conversation.
Just then, Oscar and his friends came out of the private room and noticed a familiar figure by the
window. Curious, he stopped in his tracks with his eyebrows raised before he took his phone out and
took a photo from a distance. Aidan might be in a pinch now. With how stubborn he is, he won’t get the
girl even if he took several lifespans, he thought. After he took the photo, he kept his phone and left the
restaurant satisfied.
After dawdling outside for around twenty minutes, Zoe returned to her table to find Elijah and Leanna
conversing well with one another. Upon such a sight, Zoe immediately felt that it was worth it for her to
have withstood the cold winds outside. I’m the greatest contributor if those two actually get together,
she thought.
After the meal, Elijah offered to send them home, but Leanna rejected him. “I’ve already caused you a
great deal of trouble today. Since our apartment is just around the corner, we can just walk back home.”
Silently nodding, Elijah pondered briefly before he said, “My friend is having a live music session this
weekend. Do the two of you have some free time this week? If you do…”
Without waiting for Leanna’s answer, Zoe immediately said, “Yes, we do! We’re so free this weekend! It
just so happens that we were thinking about where to go this weekend, right, Nana? It’ll be relaxing and
soothing to just chill and listen to music. Besides, how can we not show our support by attending
Elijah’s friend’s music live?”
Leanna remained silent.
Looking at the situation, Elijah smiled. “Then, it’s a date. I’ll pick you two up this weekend.”
“Alright, sounds good. See you this weekend,” Zoe replied.
After watching him leave, Leanna let out a sigh before she turned her attention toward Zoe. Zoe
immediately took two steps back and took the initiative here. “Hey, hey. Since we’ve already promised
Elijah, you can’t back out from it now.”
Leanna said bluntly, “I did not promise anything.”
“All the same. Since Elijah had already said he’d be picking us up this weekend, are you really
heartless enough to disappoint a man like that?”
Seeing that she said nothing to retort, Zoe hugged and shook her arm, acting like a spoiled child.
“Please, Nana, can’t we go? I really want to go. Right now, all I can think about is that live music
session. If I can’t go, I’m afraid I will lose sleep for days.”
A helpless Leanna replied after a brief moment of silence, “Fine, fine. I’ll go.”
At that, Zoe’s eyes lit up. However, before she could revel in the joy, Leanna continued, “But, I’m saying
this now, you are not allowed to find an excuse to leave me alone with Elijah. I know you’re trying to set
me up with him, but—”
Zoe nodded repeatedly and interrupted her mid-sentence. “Of course, don’t worry. I won’t do that
anymore. But, Nana, haven’t you thought about it? Elijah really is a good catch. If he likes you, why not
give him a chance?”
Leanna laughed. “That’s just too much of a stretch. You said it yourself, Elijah is young and talented.
I’m sure there are lots of women out there going after him. He wouldn’t go for someone like me.”
With a frown, Zoe replied, “You shouldn’t look down on yourself like that. It’s not like you’re worse than
the others. Plus, that b*stard’s already beside himself with regret with the divorce.”
Silently, Leanna thought, Just how did she come to such a horrible conclusion?
