Chapter 218 That Can’t Be Love In the evening, Leanna received a call from Elijah. “Leanna, I heard from Daniel that Louis is living with him now. What’s going on on your side? My friend told me yesterday that Daphne’s PR team is already dealing with it, and the impact has been minimized.” “Thank you for calling. It’s all well on my end. Louis moved here because he was worried about me.” Today, Jonathan did not call her for any follow-up questions. It was probably because she was no longer needed. After a while, Elijah slowly said, ” Leanna, are you free this weekend? Our company is having our annual general meeting at a resort not far from Highside. I want to invite you to join us for the two-day, one-night trip.” Leanna pondered for a moment before nodding. “Sure.” He breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that she agreed, and his mood seemed elevated. “All right.

Then, I’ll pick you up on Saturday morning.” As soon as she hung up, Zoe immediately came over and asked excitedly, “How is it? How is it? Is Elijah asking you out on a date?” Hearing this, Louis, who was next to her, also turned to look over. Leanna was speechless. Do they need to have such a big reaction? “It’s not a date,” she answered. “It’s his company’s annual general meeting, and he invited me to attend it.” “What else can it be if it’s not a date?” Zoe retaliated as she chomped away on her chips. “You must be going to this event as his girlfriend. Even if you’re not his girlfriend yet, everyone will suspect that there is something going on and he’s just waiting for the right time to take things to the next level.” Hearing this, Leanna pursed her lips and said nothing. As for Louis, he retracted his gaze and continued to flip through the book in his hand. “I have no comment on this.” Zoe immediately followed suit and raised her hands in agreement. “I have no comment as well.” Leanna really didn’t know what to do with these two. “I’m still a little dizzy. I’m going to go to bed.”

to pull back anyway. Although it might be a difficult step to take, she had to do so if she wanted to start afresh. She let out a sigh before reaching out to her scribbling pad. She stared at a particular page for a long time before slowly tearing it off, folding it in half, and shredding it before she threw

was forced to do those things. Therefore, Leanna and Louis did not pursue her further. After hearing the result of the police’s investigation, Zoe speculated, “Something feels off to me. It is way too coincidental for Karen to be in a car accident. I really don’t believe her when she says there is no one else behind all these.” “The car that ran into her has been looked into, and there is nothing suspicious about it. The accident happened when she was crossing the road,” Leanna replied lightly. “Now that you said that, it is possible that it’s just an accident. Anyways, she is a hoodlum with no regard for the law. It wouldn’t be a surprise to me if she jaywalked. Maybe it’s karma.” “I feel like this isn’t the end

Zoe pushed Leanna into her room and began choosing some clothes. In the end, Zoe was still somewhat dissatisfied with her choices. “These aren’t sexy enough. Let’s go out and buy some more.” Leanna hastened to hold Zoe back. “Enough, enough. I think these are good enough. Besides, it’s too late now. The mall is already closed.” Hearing this, Zoe sighed. “Oh well, we have no other choices then. Thank God that you have a good body; you’ll even look good in a sack.” Leanna scratched her head. “I might not be back until the night after tomorrow. If you’re bored at home on the weekends, why don’t you come with me?” After thinking about it for the past two days, she was starting to feel a little embarrassed to go alone. However, she had already promised Elijah, and it wasn’t easy to go back on it. “Are you kidding me? I’m not going to be a third wheel. I’m going to a bar this weekend to see if there are any handsome guys. Don’t look down on me. I might not be back tomorrow night as well.” Leanna really didn’t
