I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 199 It’s Okay to Let off Some Steam Knowing that Elijah was leaving because of company affairs, Leanna took a silent sigh in relief. “Alright, I shouldn’t bother you any longer. I—” “Leanna,” he interrupted. “Yeah?” “Nothing. Get some rest. Good night.” He smiled faintly as he failed to ask the question he was curious about. After ending the call, she rested her head on the table again. She was not sure if she should straighten things out with him because it would be struck as self-conceited when he had not confessed his feelings yet. Knowing that she was not going to get any sleep tonight, Leanna flipped open her sketchbook. Drawing one stroke after another, she was depicting the b*stard’s silhouette unconsciously. When she finally pulled back her senses, the drawing was almost done. Her first thought was to tear off the paper, but her hands stopped in their tracks. Forget it. Let’s just leave one to remind myself not to be careless. She flipped to a new page before slapping her face lightly to wake herself up to make another sketch. At the same time, there was a subordinate in the study room of Crossley Residence. “Mr. Crossley, I’ve looked into the matter and the picture was submitted to the media by a boy.” Lloyd’s brows slightly creased.

“A boy? What boy?” “It’s Louis McKinney. He’s currently nineteen and is in his first-year at Southfork University.” “Have you found out how he had the picture?” The subordinate nodded lightly. “He has an older sister named Leanna McKinney.” “What?!” Lloyd jumped to his feet. “It is confirmed that she is Aidan Pearson’s ex-wife.” The frown on Lloyd’s face evidently deepened when he heard that. “Are you sure?” “Yes, I’m sure. I’ve confirmed it with the media. Louis gave them the picture to look for the missing person. He might’ve deemed it useless as he used social media to search for the person afterward, but we’ve deleted them.” After a moment of silence, Lloyd behested, “Do a background check on Louis and Leanna. Pry every detail from their birth and—” A knock resounded on the door and Georgina entered the room. “Dad, are you looking for me?” He sat on the chair before motioning his subordinate to leave.

It’s nothing. I’ve asked someone to handle it,” he slurred it over. She nodded. Lloyd paused for a while before questioning, “I heard that you’ve become close with a foreigner.” “He’s not totally a foreigner. He’s mixed.” Daniel had been inviting her for a hangout at times ever since the birthday party ended. She knew his intention and would have turned him down without a second thought if it happened in the past. Ever since Georgina’s engagement with Aidan was called off, no one talked about it to her face but she was aware that many of them were amused by her misfortune. Now that she had a pursuer, who was known worldwide, she would not turn him down that easily. Lloyd asked, “Have you checked his background?” “Yeah and everything looks fine. He’s come to Highside to organize a concert. Many of my friends know him.” “Gina,” he said sternly, “I don’t mind who you’re going to date, but you must know that your spouse can never be a musician.” “I know.” “It’s my fault for agreeing to an engagement between you and the Pearsons. I shouldn’t have done that after knowing what kind of person Aidan is.” Georgina shook her head. “Dad, please don’t say that. I was stubborn and insisted on marrying him. No matter what, Aidan was the best candidate to be my husband.” He sighed before inquiring, “Oh, right. How’s Aidan’s ex-wife doing?” She was baffled by

seems to be it.” “Does she have other family members?” “I think she has a younger brother. I’m not sure about others, though. Why are you suddenly asking about her, Dad?” Lloyd’s countenance darkened. “Nothing. I’m just curious what kind of girl won Aidan’s heart. That’s all.” Georgina’s complexion simmered too. “True. I underestimated her calculative side before this. Otherwise, things wouldn’t have turned out like this.” He tried to soothe her by offering comforting words, “Gina, Aidan is the one who’s at fault. If you feel that you’re wronged, it’s okay to let off some steam.” “You mean…” “No matter what you do, I’ll always have your back. I believe that the Pearson

a moment before smiling. “Dad, why do you ask?” “It just came into my mind. It’s nothing important. Get some rest.” Her reaction was enough to tell him the answer to the question. Returning to his room, Lloyd locked the door before opening a secret compartment in the wardrobe to take out a box from it. Lying in the box were a few yellowed documents with a burned pocket
