Chapter 251

Aidan narrowed his dark eyes. If Lloyd was going to attend Mr. Jackson's birthday party, he would

definitely run into Leanna. At that time, any trick that Lloyd was trying to pull would come to light as

well.

"President Pearson, besides Lloyd and President Parker, Mr. Morris will also be attending," Jonathan

said.

"Do you think that it's a coincidence or a staged act that Daniel appeared next to Georgina?" Aidan

asked calmly.

"You mean…"

"Oscar recently found out that when Elijah's Constellation Tech was first established abroad, the first

funding was from a company named Herz Corp. This company reached a strategic agreement with

Complex Group soon afterward, and their owner has a close relationship with William."

Regardless of whether it was Daniel, Elijah, William, or even Mr. Jackson, they seemed to be

connected in numerous ways somehow. As he kept digging further into their matters, he could see the

deep connections between them, and it seemed like these people had gathered for a common goal.

It had been years since Mr. Jackson threw a birthday party, and things didn't look as simple as they

seemed based on this point. And Aidan was pretty sure that all of the missing puzzle pieces would

finally fall into place by tomorrow evening.

"Place more men around the hotel tomorrow," Aidan instructed. "Leanna has never been attentive on

these matters and will only walk into a trap set by others step by step."

Jonathan muttered, "President Parker probably won't make use of Madam, much less do something to

hurt her—" Before he could finish, he felt an icy stare in front of him and quickly stopped himself.

"Okay, I'll get to it right away."

As the office door closed behind Jonathan as he left, silence befell the room once more. Leaning into

the chair, Aidan stared at the framed picture as he pursed his lips lightly, deep in thought.

Minutes later, his phone rang, and it was a call from Oscar. "You guessed it right. Your whereabouts in

Weavside have been exposed, and Sienna is now looking for your mother."

The edges of Aidan's lips turned downward coldly. "She's pretty quick on her feet, huh?"

"It appears that she has someone else working for her other than the men from the Zielinski Family.

There are some which I can't even find out about their background."

"Soon enough, the powerful being behind her will take action," Aidan said composedly.

At the same time, Sienna had already walked into the trap he had set up, step by step.

At 6.00PM sharp, Elijah showed up at Leanna's workshop. "Are you ready, Leanna?"

Grabbing the gift on the counter, she flashed him a smile. "Yes. Let's go."

She didn't know what to get as a gift, but she recalled the tea set in Mr. Jackson's place, so she bought

some tea leaves for him.

In the car, Elijah said after a while, "Leanna, there's something I didn't tell you, actually."

"What is it?"

"Aidan will be attending the party tonight as well, and you certainly will run into each other at some

point. But it's okay, I'll stay by your side the whole time, and he won't dare to mess around during such

an occasion."

Nodding softly, she didn't say a thing—she didn't know how to respond to that, anyway. Twenty minutes

later, the car came to a stop at a hotel entrance.

As Mr. Jackson was a reputable person in Highside, the guests attending his birthday party were also

people of status and influence. Elijah and Leanna had run into a couple of them right after they entered.

At the sight of the pair, Georgina sniggered. "I didn't expect that you'll bring Miss McKinney here,

President Parker. I thought she would be attending with Aidan, but it looks like I still don't know Miss

McKinney very well."

Leanna was aware of Georgina's enmity but didn't bother to explain herself at all, not like she knew

how to anyway. Elijah then responded coolly, "Leanna is a guest Mr. Jackson had personally invited, so

I don't understand what you're saying, Miss Crossley."

Georgina didn't seem surprised at that, and she merely said with a smirk, "Looks like you are quite

reputable, Miss McKinney. You actually know Mr. Jackson, and he even invited you personally. I guess

it's just me being too offensive. My bad."

Just then, a deep voice sounded up right beside her. "Georgina."

Georgina twirled her head around. "Oh, right. Dad, let me introduce them to you. This is President

Parker from Constellation Tech and this is… Well, she's someone you know as well. She's Aidan's ex-

wife."

When the last word left her lips, Lloyd's gaze drifted over slowly before finally landing on Leanna's face,

and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I know Miss Crossley doesn't like me." Leanna began slowly. "But since she already started this, I

would like to add on something as well. My name is Leanna McKinney, and not 'Aidan's ex-wife.'"

Would you be happy if I called you the fiancée that Aidan had broken off the engagement with? Leanna

retorted in her mind. If it weren't for Lloyd's presence, she would have said it out loud in Georgina's

face.

No matter how Georgina deliberately tried to approach her back then and said that she wanted to be

friends with her, Leanna had always kept a distance from her just to avoid getting involved in situations

like this.

Yet, it still turned out the same in the end. Why do I have to bear the consequences of that b*stard's

actions? she wondered.

Snickering, Georgina was about to say something when Lloyd said, "You're not a regular person

indeed, Miss McKinney. It's no surprise that you would marry into the Pearson Family."

With the faintest smile on her face, Leanna kept her silence. No matter what he meant behind his

words, she couldn't be bothered to ponder over it.

"Mr. Jackson's birthday party is about to begin. We're going ahead first. Please make yourselves

comfortable," Elijah said and left with Leanna.

In the event hall, almost all the guests had arrived. Mr. Jackson was wearing a full tuxedo and holding a

walking stick while chatting with William when they approached him.

The moment he saw them, Mr. Jackson broke into a smile and said, "Oh, you're here, Eli and Miss

McKinney. It's rather cold outside, isn't it? Sorry that you have to make this trip."

"It's not that cold," Leanna said with a smile.

The few of them chatted for a while until someone came over and whispered something into Mr.

Jackson's ear. Then, he glanced at Elijah before turning to Leanna. After acknowledging it a few times,

he waved his hand and sent the man away.

"Eli, there are some snacks and hot drinks over there. Take Miss McKinney over to have a look," Mr.

Jackson said.

"Sure," Elijah replied.

As Leanna knew that Mr. Jackson wanted to draw her away on purpose, she nodded with a smile and

left with Elijah.

A few seconds later, Elijah's voice echoed from her side. "Leanna, don't take anything Georgina said to

heart. She's not doing that well in love now. That's why she's purposely picking on you."

His words struck her by surprise. "Isn't she dating Daniel? What happened?"

He smirked and grabbed a glass of champagne from the waiter's hand. "You're probably still unaware

that she's going to be engaged to Aidan's brother next month."

Widening her eyes in disbelief, she never imagined that this would be the answer. "But wasn't she

engaged to Aidan before?"
