Lizzy continued to chat with Leanna for some time before finally getting to the main point. “Leanna, I
came over here today mainly to ask on behalf of Eli whether there is any chance between the two of
you?”
Pursing her lips, Leanna paused for a few seconds before replying, “Mrs. Parker, I’m friends with Elijah
and we’ve already talked things through.”
“Is that so?” Lizzy heaved a sigh. “I am to be blamed for this. I came here without Eli’s knowledge, so
please don’t take it to heart.”
“It’s fine, Mrs. Parker. You shouldn’t worry too much about this.”
The lady rose to her feet as she spoke, “Since that’s the case, then I won’t disrupt you from working. I’ll
be on my way, then.”
As such, Leanna got up after her and sent her to the door.
Before Lizzy left, she clutched Leanna’s hand and was very reluctant to let go. It was evident that she
adored Leanna very much.
After sending Lizzy to her car, Leanna finally retracted her gaze. She was just about to head back to
the studio when she noticed Aidan’s presence upon turning around. She was unsure when he had
come out, but he was currently standing in front of the conference room with one hand in his pocket,
staring down at her without a single word.
For some inexplicable reason, she somehow felt guilty under his watchful eyes.
She reached out to stroke her nose and took a few steps forward. “President Pearson, you haven’t had
lunch, have you? I haven’t eaten either. Would you like to join me for lunch?”
Yet, Aidan merely snorted through his nostrils as he strode forward in his long legs.
He walked ahead as he replied, “It looks like not only do men love you but the elderlies as well.”
As soon as Leanna heard that, she conveniently replied, “Of course! I’m so pretty, smart, and capable.
Everyone would love me, of course. They’d be blind not to!”
Aidan paused in his tracks and turned to look at her. Is she attacking me with innuendo?
Revealing a wide smile, Leanna looked rather innocent at the moment.
As they shared their meals together, Leanna brought up. “By the way, how’s Ms. Fletcher doing
recently? I should be free at the end of the month, so I plan to head back and visit her. President
Pearson, would you like to come as well?”
For a moment there, Aidan paused while holding to his utensils and he responded calmly, “She’s fine
as usual. After all, she’s old, so I don’t think she’d be getting into a new relationship at this point.”
Speechless, Leanna could not quite come up with a reply. Look at what he’s saying! He’s not even fit to
be human! It’s fortunate that Ms. Fletcher isn’t here to hear all this because she would surely be
angered by his words!
Aidan noticed her silence and continued, “The eviction notice for Underwood Lane has been put out, so
she’s moved out.”
As soon as Leanna heard that, she was caught by surprise. “I thought that they were supposed to
demolish the place in May? Where has she moved to?”
“Well, she still has to find somewhere to stay before then.”
That makes sense too.
Aidan took a sip of water before continuing slowly, “She’s moved to bring you over to see her.”
She replied, “Okay.” It’s quite likely that this trip would be dependent on his mood again.
After lunch, Leanna had initially planned to return to her studio when Aidan stopped her. “Could you not
head back to work today?”
What nonsense.
She responded, “President Pearson, I’ve got work to do. Besides, you’ve got the entire Pearson Group
to run. Are you going to just leave it like that?”
He answered, “Pearson Group is perfectly fine even without me there. Don’t tell me that your tiny studio
can’t survive without you?”
Leanna inhaled a deep breath. “Yes. It can’t survive without me! The few of us inside my tiny studio
work hard to run the business, unlike Pearson Group. We’re neither influential or rich, so naturally,
there shouldn’t even be a comparison in the first place! You…”
At that, Aidan stretched out an arm and supported his head as he looked at her with a smirk. “That’s
enough. I merely mentioned a single sentence, and here you are, rambling on and on. I’ll send you
back to work.”
Still, the lady glared at him with annoyance. How dare the b*stard turn around and blame all the
mistakes onto me!
The place they had lunch was not too far from the studio, so they returned by foot just like how they
came earlier.
With just a few steps forward, Aidan naturally yet sneakily reached out to take her hand into his and
held it tightly against his palm.
Of course, Leanna instinctively tried to withdraw her hand. “What are you doing? There are a lot of
people around…”
Aidan lifted his brows questioningly. “What’s wrong with having people around? It’s not illegal to hold
my wife—my girlfriend’s hands.”
At that point, Leanna realized that she had underestimated how thick-skinned this lowlife was.
Fortunately, it was past peak lunch hour and there were no longer crowds along the streets. There
were also several couples hand-in-hand, so they did not appear to be significantly out of place.
As such, Leanna kept quiet and she slowly walked along his side.
Moments later, Aidan’s voice slowly rang out. “You don’t have to worry about Jethro. I’ll resolve things.”
Pausing in her tracks, she looked at him and asked, “Did Oscar tell you?”
“I don’t need him to tell me that.” Aidan replied, “I should have told you in advance about the fact that
he was still well and alive. If you were mentally prepared for this, then it wouldn’t have come as such a
surprise to you.”
“When did you find out?”
There was a deep look in Aidan’s eyes as he glanced at her. “You can’t hide anything from me.”
Leanna could not be bothered about this arrogant and egotistical man, so she maintained a moment of
silence before saying, “This is my personal matter, so I have my ways to deal with it. President
Pearson, you should be the one who stops worrying about this.”
“How do you plan to deal with it?”
Although Aidan intended for it to be a question, Leanna could sense his challenging tone, which
prompted her to snort in response. “Just you wait and see.”
…
Despite the lengthy period Ron had promised to Leanna in locating Jethro, he actually had managed to
track him down in merely three days.
Jethro could not change his old ways; even though his leg was broken, he refused to waste the money
to treat his injury at the hospital. Instead, he spent them all on the gambling table.
As such, he had merely gone to a quack doctor and had his broken leg bandaged haphazardly before
considering everything sorted.
Furthermore, he had the one-hundred thousand that he had extorted, so he felt that it would be such a
shame for his broken leg if he did not go on a gambling spree!
At the illegal casino, Jethro collected his money with a beaming face.
Then, someone next to him scolded, “Look at you winning loads. Hey. You playin’ dirty?”
Meanwhile, Jethro collected his money while saying, “I’m just lucky today. You guys just never saw how
badly I once lost. I even lost my daughter.”
A person flung the cards aside and left. “I don’t want to continue the game. I’m so unlucky tonight. I’ve
lost seven to eighty thousand! This is annoying.”
Jethro turned to gesture to the crowd by the side. “Don’t just stand there. We’re one player short. Hurry
up and fill the spot.”
Everyone refused to step forward after noticing that Jethro was on a winning streak tonight.
Just as he was about to go and get someone else to fill the spot, a figure dropped into the seat next to
him. Before he could even fully form his smile, it suddenly froze on his face.
Ron wore a devilish look in his eyes. “Let’s continue. You’re one player short, aren’t you? I’ll join you for
a few rounds.”
Jethro instantly kept his money. “I’ve had enough. It’s late now, so it’s time for me to go.”
He had just taken a step forward when Ron suddenly stretched out one leg in front of Jethro. “You
seem to have forgotten something, but I guess that’s normal since you’re so busy. You forgot
something important, didn’t you?”
Jethro was not completely dull; he knew that Ron was here for the money. After some hesitation, he
reached into his pocket and took out half of the money he had with him. “This is what I’ve won tonight.
This should cover the interest and I’ll pay off the rest in two more days.”
Ron asked, “How did you get so much money?”
