Although Leanna had agreed to go on a date with Aidan, she still needed to head to the studio.
When she woke up, the b*stard was still asleep.
Thinking that his work was quite tiresome, she did not wake him up. Instead, she wrote a note and
stuck it at the head of the bed before going out.
Standing at the elevator, she pressed the button and began her long wait.
At that moment, the door from the room next door opened. Daniel stuck out his head and looked
around to ensure Aidan was not present before he quickly came out.
Leanna greeted him, “Good morning.”
“Good… morning. Miss McKinney, you’re up so early. Are you heading to work?”
Nodding, she replied, “I have plans this afternoon, so I’m going there early.”
Then, he stood beside her and asked, “Speaking of which, I seemed to have never visited your studio. I
can take today’s opportunity and head over.”
Knowing that he had something to tell her, she smiled and agreed, “Sure.”
After they exited the residential area, Daniel turned around to make sure that Aidan was not tailing
them.
Leanna noticed his actions and asked, “What are you looking for?”
Laughing sheepishly, he replied, “Nothing. Oh, right. Has President Pearson been living here recently?”
At that, Leanna felt a little awkward and did not know how to answer.
Fortunately for her, Daniel did not ask any further questions and returned to the topic. “I have some
questions about the tender calling from the day before. Could you help me…”
While walking, Leanna explained, “A few months ago, Jethro McKinney died an accidental death while
escaping imprisonment. When Louis and I were tidying up his belongings, we found a box, which
contained things our mother left behind.”
Daniel asked, “What are the things… she left behind?”
“A few old pictures and a pocket watch. It was then that I discovered Jethro was not my biological
father. As for my real father, the man in the pictures, I guess Jethro was so jealous that he scratched
away my father’s face.”
“Does that pocket watch belong to Lloyd Crossley?”
Nodding, Leanna replied, “At first, I thought he knew my biological father, but I’ve never thought about
that possibility until I checked the list of customers who bought that pocket watch.”
Daniel frowned. “How did you find out that Lloyd Crossley might know your biological father?”
“Because Louis previously posted a missing person’s post in the newspaper and tried many other ways
to find that person, but Lloyd stopped the news from getting to us.”
“When was that?”
“About a month or two ago.”
The frown on his face deepened. “In other words, Lloyd knows that you’re looking for him, but doesn’t
want you to find out more. That’s why he stopped the news from getting to you. The truth is that he
knew who you were when you tried to look for him with the photo.”
After hearing that, she was silent for a moment before saying, “Maybe.”
“But, don’t you think it’s strange?”
Confused, she asked, “In which aspect?”
Daniel answered, “The Crossleys are such a powerful family. If he didn’t want you to find any clues,
how could you have found some of them?”
A long pause later, Leanna finally answered, “It was… a friend who helped me find the person in
charge of manufacturing the pocket watch. That person brought me to the warehouse where the
customer details are stored.”
“Miss McKinney, I don’t mean anything else, but the person who gave you the details is right. Lloyd did
buy that pocket watch and it also belonged to him. So, it was right to investigate in this direction, but
there might be a chance that someone is deliberately driving your investigation in that direction. Have
you ever thought about what might happen if you bring this pocket watch to him?”
He continued, “No matter what precautions you take, you’d still be in danger.”
Leanna understood what he meant. She did not think of this problem before and only realized that it
had been way too easy for her to discover these clues after Daniel mentioned it.
It would not matter to him if it was any other matter, but this matter was about Lloyd and he was
constantly avoiding her. Hence, it was nearly impossible for him to show any flaws.
As she thought of that, she took out her phone and called the manufacturer, but later found that it was a
fake number.
Then, she called the friend who helped her get ahold of the manufacturer, but they did not know the
specific details. At that time, it was the person in charge at the manufacturing warehouse who
contacted them and said that they produced such pocket watches.
Putting away her phone, Leanna pursed her lips.
It seemed like besides her, there were other people after Lloyd.
Suddenly lifting her head, she looked at Daniel.
When they met gazes, Daniel subconsciously retreated while asking, “What’s the matter, Miss
McKinney?”
She explained, “How did you know whether I was investigating in the right direction? I only mentioned
the pocket watch, but I didn’t tell you about my suspicions. Judging from the way you laid out your
advice, I believed you knew what I was thinking.”
Not expecting her to suddenly realize the situation and suspect him, he could only laugh dryly in
response. “About that, it was Georgina who told me.”
“Georgina told you what I was suspecting? She might not even know the real reason why I must enter
the Crossley Family, but you do.”
“H-How would I know? I was just saying.”
“No. You’ve already found out about this long ago and you kept reminding me to be careful of Georgina
and Lloyd. You know a lot; perhaps even more than me.”
With that, she stopped before quickly continuing, “You got close to Georgina to deal with Lloyd. Did
you…”
Hurriedly interrupting her, Daniel explained, “No, no. You’ve misunderstood me, Miss McKinney. You
said I got close to Georgina because I wanted to deal with Lloyd; you should know that in order to do
so, I’d have to know him like the back of my hand. Or else, we’ll be heading to our deaths.”
He was not expecting to lose his cool when he only intended to have a talk with Leanna to clear his
doubts. Undoubtedly, her train of thoughts were clear and concise. Luckily, he managed to come up
with a logical and reasonable response.
“Oh.” She withdrew her thoughts and walked two steps forward before turning around. “Are you going
to the studio?”
“Of course! That’s what I intend to do.” While scratching his head, Daniel quickened his steps to catch
up to her.
They had walked quite a distance before he stated, “Miss McKinney, I have something I’m curious
about that I wanna ask you.”
“Ask away.”
“Since your biological father might be someone else, does Louis…”
Hearing that, her footsteps came to a halt and she asked after a few seconds, “I have a favor to ask of
you.”
Daniel nodded. “Sure.”She said, “Don’t mention any of these in front of Louis.”
