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.”

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.”

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.”

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.
