Chapter 44 How Many Times Has She Hinted at Him? “McK, this is Mr. Justin Pearson.” After a simple introduction, Harvey then left the room because of other work. Justin was seated on the wheelchair, and he wore a polite and gentle smile. “Leanna, so you’re the famous designer of Lux Jewelry.” “Jus—” Tin, she finished in her head and paused. “Hello, Mr. Pearson.” “You don’t have to be so awkward and formal with me.

 

Like Aidan, just call me Justin,” he said. “I don’t think so because Aidan and I are already divorced.” He chuckled. “You’re right. But it’s just a way of addressing someone, and I’m only a year older than you, so it’s okay if you call me by my name.” The edges of Leanna’s lips turned up, and she didn’t continue to fuss over this issue with him anymore. “What type of jewelry would you like to custom design, Mr. Pearson?” “I almost forgot about this.” From the folder which he was always carrying with himself, Justin took out a few pieces of paper and placed them on the table. “My mother’s birthday is next week, and I would like to have a necklace specially designed for her. Previously, I planned to design it myself, but as you can see, none of these are presentable.”

 

Once again, Leanna felt that she couldn’t hold the smile on her face. Isn’t his mother also Aidan’s mother? That aloof and elegant woman, who exuded a regal air around her, was incredibly unapproachable. Seeing the odd look on her face, Justin apologized, “This is a little difficult for you, isn’t it? I only came here to give it a shot after my friend told me that the new designer Lux Jewelry had signed is very talented and smart. If it’s too much to ask for, then just forget it…” At the end of his sentence, there was an obvious trace of regret in his voice, and after a couple of seconds, Leanna said, “It’s not too difficult.

 

What kind of style would you prefer, Mr. Pearson?” Since Leanna was the one who pointed out that she was divorced from Aidan, it would seem as though she was still brooding over it if she turned Justin down because of this. Furthermore, this was work, and she shouldn’t include her personal feelings into it. After Justin had explained the style he wanted to her, he said again, “Next week is my mother’s birthday, so maybe you’ll have to come up with the draft within the next three days and the final product has to be finished before her birthday. The time is a little rushed, eh? It’s my fault for delaying too much time before this. Even though I know that I’m not capable, I insisted on giving it a try.”

 

design draft is ready, I’ll ask Mr. Mancini to contact you, Mr. Pearson.” “Actually, I’m not that familiar with Mr. Mancini. If it’s convenient for you, let’s leave our contact details with each other.” “Sure,” Leanna said. As this was work, this was a reasonable request from the client. After they had added each other on WhatsApp, Leanna kept the papers on the table back into the folder and returned it to Justin, saying, “I’ll see you out, Mr. Pearson.” “Thank you.” When they were outside of Lux, Justin’s driver came to greet them and took over the handles of Justin’s wheelchair from Leanna. “It’s alright; you can go. I won’t

 

who was kind to her from the Pearsons, then there was only Justin. A few years ago at that party when people kept ordering her around and were being mean to her, he was the only one who offered her a glass of water, saying gently, “Take a break for a while. You don’t have to be bothered by the things that they said. As long as Aidan regards you as his wife, then nothing

of them had such different personalities even though they were brothers. If Aidan was one-tenth as gentle as Justin, Leanna could even smile in her sleep. Back at Lux, Zoe trotted over and asked in a whisper, “I heard from Mr. Mancini that

at a party at the Pearson’s, and during both times, Sienna’s attitude toward her was aloof beyond words. Luckily, Leanna only had to submit the design draft because Justin would get others to find the materials and complete the final product. Presently, Zoe sighed. “That’s right, you don’t have to meet her, anyway. I heard from Mr. Mancini that he quoted a very
