Looking at the information before her, Leanna tensed her delicate brows. “Are there any other
appropriate material suppliers?”
“Not at the moment. I wasn’t in charge of this previously, but Mr. Ollander has fallen sick and was
hospitalized recently, so…”
Leanna replied, “Let me think about it.”
“Understood.” Raymond nodded and left.
Nonetheless, before Leanna could come up with a solution, Raymond came to her again in the
afternoon. “Miss McKinney, the problem earlier has been dealt with.”
“Already? How?” Leanna was stunned.
“Miss McKinney, do you still remember Complex Group?”
She was baffled. “Complex Group?”
“Yes, it is a foreign company that had worked with Pearson Group in the past. They were also the party
who auctioned off Crossley Group’s land on Youth Street.”
Upon realization, Leanna pursed her lips.
Raymond then added, “One of Complex Group’s people gave us a call one hour ago and claimed that
they can supply us with a new batch of materials. Richard went over to verify them and said that there
was no issue with them.”
Richard Lewis was Maya’s husband.
Upon Leanna’s wordlessness, Raymond assumed that she was concerned about the materials. “Miss
McKinney, would you like to see to it yourself?”
Leanna then shook her head. “No need. Have they named a price?”
In response, Raymond answered, “I was about to tell you about it. They have expressed that they are
not going to charge for the materials as our joint project with them is ongoing, so they decided to do us
the favor and asked for a higher share in return.”
“The joint project still ongoing?” Leanna asked.
“It was halted back when Crossley Group was in a pinch, but it was resumed recently. However, hear
me out. The project will not proceed according to the previous auctioned terms. Though, I’m not quite
certain about the details either…”
Given Crossley Group’s current situation, it could hardly sustain itself, so it had no means to interfere
with the approach. After all, the ones with wealth were the ones with power. Regardless, fortunately, a
contract was signed beforehand, so Complex Group could do whatever with the project as long as
Crossley Group was getting paid. Furthermore, Complex Group supplied the materials at quite a timely
moment.
“Never mind. We’ll leave it be,” Leanna replied.
Thereupon, Raymond left her as she held her pen in deep contemplation.
After a while, she gave Daniel a call. “Let’s meet.”
Half an hour later, in the cafe below Crossley Group, Leanna cut straight to the chase without beating
around the bush. “I’m sorry for what I have done.”
Dazed for a moment, Daniel eventually realized what matter she was referring to. He then chuckled
before answering, “Don’t worry about it. Besides, you’ve been doing well since you joined Crossley
Group. I just hope that you don’t blame me for having attempted to stop you.”
Holding a teaspoon, Leanna stirred the cup of coffee in front of her. “Please relay my apology to
William as well.”
Hearing that, Daniel let out another chuckle and replied, “To be honest, I’m not really that close with
William. The only reason we showed up in your office is that we bumped into each other at the
entrance.”
“So, you’re not close with him.”
Daniel took a gulp. “Not exactly ‘not close with him.’ We’re just not really that close.”
Chuckling, Leanna lifted her cup of coffee and took a sip. “You, Elijah, and William are very close to Mr.
Jackson, so I assumed that you knew one other.”
“That’s quite a stretch. Elijah only knew Mr. Jackson because his parents were once Mr. Jackson’s
students; William got to know Mr. Jackson overseas. As for me…”
At once, Leanna put down her cup and paid full attention. “What about you?”
Daniel remained silent as he had yet to come up with a story. Essentially, he couldn’t just disclose that
he knew Mr. Jackson from a concert. He could have tricked Georgina with some random excuse, but
not Leanna.
Luckily for him, Leanna did not pursue the matter. Instead, she asked, “Have you met with Zoe lately?”
Daniel furrowed his brows. “Isn’t she getting married soon? It doesn’t feel right for me to see her.”
Leanna grew silent, thinking that she shouldn’t have encouraged him so much back then.
After pondering for a while, she then said, “Frankly, dating is simply dating here. It doesn’t mean you
have to commit to it until marriage, as you should only consider it once you find the perfect match.”
“She seems happy with that guy.” Daniel gave the matter a thorough thought. Since he couldn’t
promise Zoe a marriage, and now that Zoe found a man to get married to, it was only right that he
refrained from interfering in her life.
“So, are you still merely infatuated with her, or are you actually in love?” Leanna asked.
With a frown, Daniel answered, “I can’t tell.” After all, he never really gave much thought to his prior
relationships, and every one of them ended as soon as they began.
Feeling perturbed, Leanna didn’t know how to respond to that.
Daniel then assured, “Don’t you worry. I’ll leave Highside before she gets married. I won’t cause her
any trouble.”
“Well, I don’t mean it that way…”
“Then what do you mean?”
Leanna was at a loss for words. After a moment of silence, she finally continued, “Anyway, if you
happen to be free these few days, you should go look for her once more. If you genuinely hope that
she’s able to find happiness, you should tell her what you think. Consider it a loose end tied.”
“I know.” Daniel nodded.
With that, Leanna got up from her seat. “I shall get back to work, then.” After a short pause, she added,
“Right. About the materials, please relay my gratitude as well.”
Before Daniel could respond, Leanna was already steps away. As he peered at her fading figure, a
thought subtly surged in his mind.
She knew. Not only did she know about my relationship with William, but also…
Daniel took a deep breath, clueless about what they were thinking. Both of them knew what was going
on, yet they were reluctant to communicate and even avoided each other.
After leaving the cafe, Daniel arrived at the studio entrance. He sat in his car for half the day, and it
wasn’t until he saw Zoe did he finally push open his car door.
Zoe just woke up from her afternoon nap, and as she was yawning while ordering takeout, an
unexpected guest came into the studio. Perhaps something was weighing on her mind, but the moment
she saw him, she was stupefied, and her phone slid out of her hand and fell to the ground.
Daniel walked up to her and picked up the phone for her. “Can we talk?”
“A-About what?”
“Anything.”
After remaining quiet for a while, Zoe grabbed the phone from his hand and walked out of the studio.
The piano room beside the studio had been rented to someone else. It was under renovation, so some
noises were to be expected.
Sitting in the boba shop across the street, Zoe asked, “What do you wanna talk about?”
“I…” When the words were almost out of his mouth, he hesitated. He couldn’t bring himself to give her
his blessing.
Zoe was puzzled. “What’s wrong?”
