Chapter 159 Time to Rack His Brain

Leanna replied, “Oh, nothing. I just ran into a crazy person.”

Zoe frowned when she heard her friend’s answer. “What’s wrong with the security here? How could

they let someone like that into this place? What if something bad happened…” Before Zoe could finish

her words, she felt someone stepping on her toe under the table.

Daphne smiled and said casually, “By the way, we were talking about the opening of your studio. It’s

tomorrow, isn’t it? Well, I’m going to be your first customer, just like we agreed.”

Leanna curled her lips and nodded. “I look forward to our cooperation.”

After their meal, Leanna and Zoe left just as Daphne was about to call her driver. At that moment, she

suddenly sensed a cold and sinister presence behind her. Unnerved, she turned around in a rigid

manner and reacted with a brittle smile. “Mr. Pearson, you’re still here…”

Aidan gave her a cold stare and said, “I’m going to give you two choices. It’s either you start working

twenty-four seven from today on, or…”

“Alright, say no more, Mr. Pearson. I’m going to go with the second choice.”

He then adjusted his sleeves and calmly asked, “What were you ladies talking about?”

She was tongue-tied to hear the man’s question. At the same time, she was annoyed that she didn’t do

anything about it even though she had a feeling that Aidan was still around earlier. Nonetheless, she

went on to tell the man what he wanted to know in a concise manner while omitting the part that they

spoke ill of him. “Leanna and Zoe are opening a studio together. The opening is tomorrow, so would

you like to show your support by being there, Mr. Pearson?”

Aidan sniggered and replied, “I’m a busy man with important things to do, unlike you who are idle.”

Daphne pursed her lips, understanding what he meant behind his words. Fine, let’s see if you’re going

to regret it tomorrow. She then let out a sigh and answered, “Actually, they are starting a business by

themselves, and I can tell that it’s going to be quite challenging. So, I’ve been thinking of inviting some

friends to come with me and show some support, but at the same time… I’m also afraid that I won’t

have enough time to rest if I go there. So, I treated them to a meal instead.”

He glanced at her with a nonchalant look. “After all this time, your acting still sucks.”

While she was speechless, he took his eyes off her and said, “There is no way you’re going to have

any days off, but I can turn a blind eye to the mean things you just said about me.”

Once again, Daphne was helplessly speechless upon hearing the man’s words. What a petty guy! No

wonder he can’t win Leanna’s heart, no matter how hard he tries.

Moments later, Aidan was sitting in his black Rolls-Royce, rubbing the bridge of his nose while asking,

“Has Leanna left Lux Magazine?”

Jonathan nodded in response. “A little bird there told me that Mrs. Pearson intends to put the matter

with Queenie behind her and move on, so I told them to stop as well.”

Although he didn’t elaborate much, Aidan knew why Leanna did that. He then spoke with an

ambiguous tone, “She never ceases to surprise me with her strange ways of showing her

conscientiousness.”

“After all, if it weren’t for Ron, Mrs. Pearson would likely…” In their subsequent investigation, they

discovered that the pathway had been intentionally altered by someone. Therefore, even if Leanna

managed to fool the people whom Sienna had ordered to send her away by escaping through another

path, she was still bound to run into trouble. “Fine.” He paused and added, “Leanna’s studio is opening

tomorrow. So, deliver some flowers to her for me.” “Is… Is that all?” Jonathan probingly asked. “What

else are you thinking?”

He faked a cough and replied, “Well, Mr. Pearson, you have an annual general meeting tomorrow

morning, but after that, you should be free in the afternoon.”

Aidan responded with silence. He then took a deep breath and rolled down the car window, pausing for

a second before he said, “Well, since I have nothing else to do at that time, I’d like to do some

inspection around our stores.”

He understood his boss and said, “Sure, Mr. Pearson. I shall make the necessary arrangements then.”

In fact, Aidan had stayed in Weavside for more than a month, but when he returned, he was forced to

take care of the mess after ending his engagement with Georgina. In the blink of an eye, two months

had passed just as the moment had come for him to rack his brain and think of a way to get out of his

difficult position.

In the meantime, Louis left as soon as he took the ladies back to their apartment. Although he was in

the middle of his semester break, he still stayed in the dormitory in his school because it was more

convenient for him due to his job at a café nearby. When Zoe arrived home, she collapsed onto the

couch and said, “Finally! I can get some good night’s rest tonight.”

Leanna replied, “Rest early tonight. We need to wake up early tomorrow.” The next second, Zoe looked

at her, rolling her eyes as if she wanted to say something, only to swallow her words that were forming

at the tip of her tongue. At the same time, she sensed her strange reaction and asked with a smile,

“What’s wrong?” “N-Nothing…” Previously, Zoe didn’t catch on to what was going on during their dinner

until the kick from Daphne instantly gave her a hint of who Leanna ran into earlier that night. Thus, she

asked with a soft voice upon a brief hesitation. “Nana, did you run into that b*stard, Aidan, when we

were in the restaurant back then?” “Yeah.” She seemed emotionless and spoke in a calm voice.

“What did he say to you then?”

Leanna froze for a while and answered, “Nothing. He was just trying to mess with me.”

Zoe clicked her tongue twice and said, “What’s that b*stard thinking? When you both were together, he

didn’t cherish it, but now that it’s over between you two…”

“I’m going to take a shower now,” she interrupted her.

“Okay. Sure.”

Leanna blow-dried her hair after she finished showering and reflected on her previous interaction with

Aidan. In reality, she had spent the previous two months attempting not to think about the man and

what had just happened so that she could finally forget the past and move on. When she ran into him

earlier that day, she learned that it was easier said than done because she couldn’t forget anything.

When she realized she had been lying to herself the entire time, she couldn’t help but agree with one

thing he said. Even though he said he wasn’t to blame for her miscarriage, he believed it was her fault

since her innocence led her to trust Sienna’s words and underestimated human nature’s malice. As a

result, she was confronted by her conscience about why she put the blame for everything on him.

Halfway through drying her hair, Leanna left the bathroom and went to the study to look through the

files on the desk, which were about her car accident. She knew in her heart that she could do nothing

to Sienna since she was no match for the Pearson Family in terms of power and influence. She did,

however, feel that she would one day have enough evidence to seek justice for her unborn child.

The next morning, Leanna received flowers and gifts from many of her friends, including Harvey, Zayn,

and Daphne. When they were finally free, Zoe began to go through the flowers they received and was

bewildered, noticing a few of them to be anonymous.

When Leanna saw her friend’s reaction, she asked, “What’s wrong?”

She replied, “This is strange, Leanna. We have an extra six flower baskets that are anonymous. No

names on them…” She paused to think and added, “Could they be from Louis?”

“I don’t think so. I told him not to do that yesterday.”

Her answer made Zoe feel even more puzzled. After all, there were only a handful of them who knew

about their studio’s opening among both of their friends combined. Therefore, she believed the

anonymous flower baskets were from the same person. Soon, their studio was visited by a customer as

she decided to forget about it. “Fine, let’s not dwell on that now. We’ll see if there is anyone who comes

and claims them back later. If not, they will be ours.”
