Leanna chatted with Zoe for quite a while. Then, all of a sudden, several knocks came from the door
outside, cutting their conversation short.
Daniel asked, “Can I come in?”
Zoe gave a long sigh.
Leanna chuckled and turned toward the door. “Come on in.”
It didn’t take long before the bedroom door opened. Daniel walked over to the other side of the bed with
a tray in his hands and placed the tray on the bedside table. The aroma of food instantly permeated the
entire room.
He glanced toward Leanna. “Miss McKinney, please stay here for dinner. I’ve already prepared a
portion for you.”
Leanna turned down his offer. “There’s no need for that. I’m going to meet Aidan later.” Then, she stood
up and turned toward Zoe. “Have a good rest. Call me if there’s anything you need. I’ll be leaving now.”
Zoe nodded and reached out her hands toward Leanna with a reluctant expression.
Leanna leaned down and hugged Zoe. “I’ll come and visit you again tomorrow.”
“Forget it. President Pearson might get annoyed at me again. I’ll visit you when I’m better.”
She smiled. “He’s not that bad.”
Zoe released her grip on Leanna. “I won’t see you off. Be careful on the way home.”
“Okay.”
Just as Leanna turned around to leave, Daniel called out to her, “Miss McKinney.”
Leanna swiveled her head, facing him. “Is something the matter?”
Daniel didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he directed his words at Zoe, “Zoe, you can go ahead and
start eating. I’ll see Miss McKinney off.”
Zoe hurriedly waved him away. “Go on.”
When Daniel and Leanna entered the elevator, he said, “How is the situation with do? Miss McKinney,
please just let me know.”
Leanna thanked him. “Thank you, but I’ve almost dealt with everything. You should stay here and keep
Zoe company.”
He nodded but spoke again after a while, “But she doesn’t seem to want to meet me. I know I didn’t
give you a good impression in the past, but I really want to take care of her.”
There was a pause before she finally asked, “Do you want to take care of her for a few days? Or do
you plan to take care of her for the rest of the future?”
He frowned slightly at her words and said nothing for a while.
At that moment, the door to the elevator opened, and they walked out together.
Leanna continued, “Zoe once told me that you were thinking about it. This matter is related to your
entire life, so you should consider your options carefully. No matter the result of your decision, Zoe will
accept it. Nevertheless, my opinion does not change. If you don’t like her, you should keep a distance.
Don’t lead her on.”
After a long time, he finally admitted, “I don’t want to hurt her.”
“I know. It’s just that… When certain things are left unclear for too long… For her, that would be the
biggest harm.”
“Does she still… Like me?”
She halted in her tracks and told him earnestly, “That’s something you have to settle between
yourselves. It’s not appropriate for me to be involved.”
He raised his hand and touched his eyebrows as though he was in deep thought. Yet, there was no
knowing what he was thinking.
She took out her keys and unlocked the car doors. “Well, I’m leaving. Call me if something happens to
Zoe.”
“Okay.”
Daniel hesitated for a moment. The words were at the tip of his tongue, but he remained silent.
Leanna noticed his hesitation and decided to probe, “What’s wrong?”
He murmured, “Miss McKinney, do you… Already know?”
“Know what?”
After she said that, she immediately realized what he was talking about. The corners of her mouth lifted
into a smile, but she said nothing.
He answered, “I understand what you’re worried about. It’s like what you mentioned before… When
certain things are left unclear for too long, that will harm the other party the most. If Louis knows about
this, he will definitely be happy for you. So, you don’t need to…”
She interrupted him lightly, “To be honest, I’m not just doing this for Louis.”
“What?”
“Twenty years have passed since the incident. I don’t even remember what happened in the past, let
alone what he looks like. So, he is a stranger to me. I don’t even know how to communicate with him.
You might think that I should be happy, but I’ve never felt any form of joy from the beginning. I don’t
know why I have such a mentality. So, instead of putting both parties in an embarrassed and awkward
situation, it might be better to pretend that I never knew from the beginning.”
Although Daniel understood the meaning behind her words, he had never adopted by William.
Therefore, a family was not just an unfamiliar concept but also something he had no memory of.
It was only because he grew up with William that he knew how important William’s deceased wife and
daughter had been to William. He knew that their estranged situation was not a permanent solution and
wanted to ask Leanna for her opinion.
After some time, he finally said, “He might be returning to Dellshore in a few days.”
She was probably a little surprised by his statement. Therefore, she went silent for a while before she
finally replied, “Is Leroy… Isn’t he still missing?”
“We’ve been searching for Leroy for so long, but there has been no news about him. He is either dead
or hidden by somebody. Regardless, he will not be found soon. There are many backlogged affairs in
the company, so I can’t spend all my time and concentration on this matter.”
She nodded lightly. “I see.”
He added, “Not to mention, Elijah, Mr. Jackson, and I are here. If Leroy appears here, he will never
escape again.”
“Won’t you leave with him?”
He shook his head. “No.”
After a period of silence, she said, “I’m leaving. I’ll come and visit Zoe again in two days.”
“Okay.”
On the way to the Pearson Group, Leanna remained slightly absent-minded. She was utterly oblivious
to the car following behind her for a long time.
After she drove for a certain distance, she discovered a roadblock in the middle of the road. She
slammed her foot on the brakes. Alas, before she could turn the steering wheel, the car behind her
crashed into her vehicle.
The momentum forced her car forward dozens of meters. She endured the wave of severe dizziness
washing over her and slammed on the brakes. When the car came to a complete stop, she leaned
back into the driver’s seat. The scene before her felt blurry and unclear.
At this moment, somebody knocked on the car window. A man pressed his face against the glass.
“Miss, are you alright? I’m sorry. I didn’t notice when you slammed on the brakes so suddenly. Please
open the door. I’ll send you to the hospital…”
Her hand fumbled with the button to open the doors. Then, she abruptly remembered what Aidan had
told her in the past. If anything happened to her, she should stay inside the car and call him without
opening the door.
She struggled to pick up the phone beside her. Before she had the time to dial Aidan’s number, she felt
her consciousness slipping from her fingers.
The knocking sounds on the window became increasingly urgent. The rapid knocks echoed loudly in
her head, making her very uncomfortable.
Before she closed her eyes, she still managed to lock all the doors and windows.
The man outside asked urgently, “What should we do? She didn’t open the doors. Do we break the
glass of her windows?”
The man’s companion looked around their surroundings. “Are you stupid? Do you want everybody to
know that we deliberately crashed into her? There’s a car coming from behind. Hurry up and call the
police!”
