I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 203 Prevention They arrived at the dining room, but another servant came and whispered something to Mr. Jackson. Mr. Jackson nodded. “Let him in.” He looked at Elijah and Leanna. “We have another guest.” He smiled. “A minute, please.” One of the servants led the guest in, and Leanna was surprised to see him. “Mr. Morris?” William looked at her and nodded. “Miss McKinney.” Mr. Jackson asked, “You know each other?” Leanna wanted to say something, but she had no idea how to answer.

William smiled and stepped in to rescue her. “We’ve met before.” “I see. Fate works in magical ways.” Mr. Jackson introduced William and Elijah to each other. “Your reputation precedes you, Mr. Parker. As young and successful as I thought you’d be,” William said. Elijah shook his hand. “Hello, Mr. Morris,” he said. Mr. Jackson laughed. “Well, don’t just stand there. Sit.” Right after they took their seats, another servant hurried inside and whispered something to Mr. Jackson. This time, the old gentleman looked surprised. “Why is he here?” William said, “I invited him.” Mr. Jackson nodded and raised his hand, telling the servant to invite the new guest inside.

Aidan quipped, “I heard that the Zielinskies are harassing Mr. Parker lately. Even came to see Mr. Jackson for that. So, how’d it go?” Mr. Jackson’s face fell. So he’s starting to get to that conversation, huh? Elijah said, “It’s settled, but thanks for your concern.” Aidan sneered. “I see you put in a lot of effort to that end, Mr. Parker.” “Just doing my job.” Mr. Jackson coughed. “Yes, yes.

gone. But I still have no idea how to defuse this. Aidan replied, “No, you’re in more of a hurry. I don’t want you going after someone else’s wife.” Leanna choked on the last bit of water. Elijah noticed that and patted her back right away. “Are you alright, Leanna?” Leanna shook her head. She said, “I need to use the bathroom.” Elijah got up as well. “This is your first time here, so I’ll show you the way.” Just before they could leave, Aidan came with them.
