Chapter 126 I Suppose Aidan Is Getting Married Soon
As early as the incident occurred, Zayn went to look for the staff of Lux. After confirming with them that there was no problem when Lux delivered the jewelry pieces, he headed straight to the hotel and retrieved the surveillance footage.
However, the other party was also well prepared. They knew that there were surveillance cameras in the hotel, so they disguised themselves as Barnett Group’s staff before entering the area with surveillance cameras. They made up a reason saying that they needed to confirm the inspection before letting the jewelry pieces enter the exhibition hall. Seeing that the jewelry had already arrived at the hotel, the staff from Lux’s side didn’t suspect anything.
It was during the journey that they secretly exchanged Leanna’s jewelry.
They thought they had done it flawlessly, yet they forgot that nothing was absolute. So, inevitably, they would overlook the potential flaws with the tampered jewelry.
Coincidentally, the surveillance caught a picture of a man giving a jewelry box to another person. Although the other person didn’t appear on the camera, it was evident that Leanna was framed.

In the end, Zayn said, “In addition, McK and I have been friends for so many years. I can assure you that she’s definitely not the kind of person as rumored. As for those who maliciously spread rumors, Barnett Group will pursue legal responsibility.”
Without a doubt, this took everyone by great surprise. They didn’t expect that there would be such a massive twist to the matter.
Also, none of them would have thought that a mere designer under Lux would be Zayn’s friend.
Meanwhile, Douglas’ facial expression was livid as he watched Zayn make that statement. Then, in a fit of anger, he left the banquet hall.
Finally, a farce came to an end after Zayn made a clarifying statement to prove Leanna’s innocence.
Zayn slowly strolled down from the exhibition platform and headed toward Leanna’s side. “I’ll send you home, Leanna.”
Leanna parted her lips and said, “Actually, you don’t need to do this.”
Nonetheless, Zayn still insisted. “I didn’t protect you before, and that’s why I lost you forever. Right now, I’m simply doing whatever is within my capability to help you.”
When she saw that he was being persistent, she didn’t know what to say anymore. Just then, she suddenly remembered something and looked around. “Where’s Anna?”
Logically speaking, it’s impossible for Anna to be so quiet after seeing Zayn help me clarify this matter. After all, she hates me deeply.

“I have my men watching her. Don’t worry. She won’t come looking for trouble with you again,” Zayn said, “Come, let’s go. I’ll see you off outside.”
She knew that she might not be able to walk out of the place alone in this situation, so she nodded and accepted his offer.
With that, she followed him and turned to leave, completely ignoring the calculative gaze behind them.
After they left, Georgina said to herself, “I didn’t expect McK to actually know Zayn, and I even asked her to design a wedding gift for Anna before. What a coincidence!”
At the sound of Georgina’s voice, Aidan put up an incomprehensible facial expression and gave her a sideways glance.
Still, Georgina simply smiled and met his gaze. “What’s the matter?”
“Your acting is better than I imagined.”

heard that as she knew he was referring to the incident that took place in the lounge earlier, then she said with a soft smile, “Well, if I want to make someone believe something untrue, I certainly need to make it as real as possible. Won’t it be oblivious to onlookers if it’s too fake?” Aidan merely sneered and said nothing after listening to her explanation. Georgina continued on when she saw that Aidan wasn’t interested in making a conversation, “Aidan—in truth, I wasn’t entirely acting. I’m serious about what I said. Why don’t you consider our marriage?” At this juncture, Aidan knew it was time for him to leave. Therefore, he tilted his head and drank the glass of champagne in his hand in one shot. After that,

the matter. Please wait

“No! I want to go out now! Do you guys hear me?! You guys will surely face an unthinkable consequence if my Aunt Sienna knows you guys are locking me up in here!”
At this moment, Georgina showed up at the door and said to the people guarding the entrance, “The matter has been settled and is over. Let her out.”
The two guarding the door looked at each other and didn’t respond for a moment when they heard her words.
Georgina noticed the doubtful looks between them and continued, adding, “Zayn has already left. You guys can call him and ask if you guys don’t believe me.”
When the two heard Georgina’s words, they no longer doubted her and quickly opened the door.
Once they unlocked the door, Anna rushed out. Just when she was about to lash out her anger, Georgina stopped her. “They simply obeyed orders. So what’s the use of taking your anger out on them?”
As she spoke, Georgina turned to look at the two men. “You guys may leave.”
With that, they replied to her in unison. “Thank you, Miss Crossley!” Then, the two left in a hurry, not wanting to taste Anna’s wrath.
Anna was utterly enraged when she saw that the two men who locked her up in the room had left just like that. “Are you saying that I should just let this slide?!”
Georgina regarded the raging Anna before responding, “No, I’m not asking you to let this matter slide. But you should know very well why Zayn locked you up here. So, aim accurately at your target, and don’t waste your time.”
“Target? What target?”

thought that Georgina would have an idea. Unfortunately, Georgina simply said calmly, “I don’t know either.
