Chapter 174

Anna felt her heart drop and her body tensed up when she heard Aidan's words. Stiffly, she turned

around to face him, tongue-tied, unable to utter a single word.

Just then, Sienna's voice came from upstairs. "It's been three years already. What use do you have to

talk about it now?"

Anna nodded desperately in agreement.

Taking a glance at Sienna, Aidan smiled coldly with his lips pursed. "I'm quite the vengeful person.

Even if it was something that had happened thirty years ago, I will remember every single detail about

it."

Sienna asked, "Then, do you have any evidence?"

Aidan laughed sarcastically for a brief moment before he replied, "Alright." He then turned around and

ordered his men, "From now on, the moment Anna takes a step out of this house, just go ahead and

break her legs. There is no need to report back to me before you do so since I don't care where her

destination is."

Anna widened her eyes in disbelief. She then tried to make a final struggle against Aidan's instruction.

"Aunt Sienna…"

Turning his attention back to Sienna, Aidan said, "I'll find you your evidence. I won't be letting anyone

who was involved off scot-free."

Although Sienna's expression remained the same, her grip on the railing gradually tightened.

Then, Aidan broke eye contact and left with long strides.

After Aidan left, Gordon took a seat on the couch before he asked, "Anna, tell me honestly, what is

going on?"

Inside the black Rolls-Royce.

Jonathan asked, "President Pearson, since the incident happened three years ago, we might not be

able to find evidence about it. Not to mention, Mrs. Pearson might have disposed of any evidence a

long time ago."

Unsurprised by Jonathan's remark, Aidan said, "If we can't find evidence three years ago, then we

should turn our attention to a much recent incident."

"President Pearson, are you referring to Madam's car accident?"

Although everyone knew that the accident was orchestrated by Sienna, they were troubled by the fact

that there was no evidence to pin Sienna as the mastermind.

Aidan instructed, "Keep searching for Sienna's men. They can't all be dead."

"Understood."

After a while, Aidan said, "Keep an eye on Anna. She may turn out to be crucial in taking down

Sienna."

Hesitantly, Jonathan asked, "Then, if Miss Anna does take a step out of the house, do we really…"

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

Jonathan immediately turned solemn. "Understood."

Aidan then lowered the car window before he said in annoyance, "Did Elijah and Leanna become

closer recently?"

"That's… I'll investigate it right now."

"No need," Aidan said. "Head to the studio."

Listening to Aidan, Jonathan became speechless briefly. Clearing his throat, he said, "President

Pearson, I'm sure the studio is closed right now."

Aidan frowned. "Then, to her house."

"If we go there right now, Madam would definitely be angry…"

With an extremely annoyed expression, Aidan asked, "Then what am I supposed to do?"

After pondering for a moment, a flash of inspiration came to Jonathan. "We can try asking Madam

whether the custom-made jewelry is done."

"She would be angrier if I did that."

Looks like that won't work, Jonathan thought before he tried to come up with another idea. After a short

moment, he said, "President Pearson, must you meet with Madam right at this instant?"

With his eyes widened slightly, Aidan looked at Jonathan indifferently.

Jonathan immediately explained, "What I mean is, with how late is it now, Madam might be fast asleep

already. How about we come up with a suitable reason tomorrow…"

Aidan remained silent.

Just when Jonathan thought that he could relax right now, Aidan said, "Give me your phone."

Elsewhere.

Leanna had just finished drawing up the design draft when her phone on her desk lit up, displaying an

unknown number. Rubbing her neck, she went outside the balcony to answer the phone as well as to

take in some fresh air. "Hello, who's this?"

"It's me."

Speechless upon hearing that man's voice, Leanna resisted the urge to immediately end the call and

started playing dumb. "I think you've called the wrong number. I don't know—"

"Leanna McKinney, just try ending the call now and see what happens after."

At that, Leanna gritted her teeth. "Oh, so it's President Pearson. But, I don't remember this being your

phone number."

"Since you've already blacklisted my number, I wouldn't be able to get through to you unless I changed

my number, no?"

"Oh," Leanna answered while thinking to herself that she would blacklist this number as well. Noticing

that the b*stard remained silent, she asked, "President Pearson, do you have something to say?"

On the other end of the line, Aidan said in displeasure, "Can't I call you even if I have nothing to say?"

Leanna became puzzled at Aidan's reply. Just where did this b*stard get his courage to order me

around? Not to mention, why does he think that I have to follow whatever he says? She then took a

deep breath to calm herself before she said, "I'm busy. If you have nothing to say, President Pearson,

then I'll—"

"Did you meet Anna today?"

"Yeah. Not only did I meet her, but I even gave her a slap. Are you calling to tell me off?"

Ignoring Leanna's gloomy tone, Aidan said indifferently, "She won't be appearing in front of you ever

again."

Slightly taken aback by Aidan's words, Leanna asked tentatively, "She's still alive, right?"

"Do you wish for her to be?"

Leanna immediately noticed Aidan's tone was devoid of emotion, and that his question did not seem to

be rhetorical, nor did he sound like he was joking. After a brief moment of silence, she said quietly, "I

only wish for her to get what she deserves."

"She will," Aidan said.

Silently, Leanna turned her gaze far into the horizon.

After a few seconds passed, Aidan spoke up again. "What else do you want to say?"

Speechless at how bold of Aidan to utter such a statement, as though she was the one harassing him

with this call, she was about to make a retort but was interrupted by Aidan. "Stay away from Elijah

Parker."

Listening to how commanding Aidan's tone was, Leanna immediately refused. "No! Why should I?!"

With his voice becoming gentler by a few levels, Aidan asked, "Why not?"

"Then, let me throw that back at you. Why should I stay away from him?"

"I don't like it."

"Oh, then that's your problem. It's got nothing to do with me in the slightest." After that, she ended the

call without waiting for Aidan to answer. Just what is wrong with this b*stard?

Back in the black Rolls-Royce, Jonathan could feel the temperature in the car had dropped to a

dangerous level of coldness. Although he had extended his hand to try and get the phone back from

Aidan, his survival instincts prevented him from doing so. If this goes just as I expected, Madam would

definitely blacklist this number as well, he thought. Fortunately, Jonathan was an outstanding assistant,

as he owned several dozens of phone numbers.

With a chilly expression, Aidan tossed the phone back to Jonathan and said, "Let's go back."

"Understood."

At Castor Villa.

Aidan switched on the lights in the cold guest room. That heartless woman really took everything with

her. When he returned to his room, he went to his cloakroom and took his tie off. It was then his eyes

fell on the row of untouched clothes and pieces of jewelry. A few seconds later, the man's thin lips

curled into a smile.
