Chapter 303

Leanna exhaled lightly after she saw Mr. Jackson's car gradually disappearing from her line of sight. As soon as she turned around, a black Rolls-Royce stopped next to her.
Leonno exholed lightly ofter she sow Mr. Jockson's cor groduolly disoppeoring from her line of sight. As soon os she turned oround, o block Rolls-Royce stopped next to her.

Then, the window slowly wound down, reveoling o mon's doshing feotures. He tilted his heod slightly ond looked ot her. "Get in."

Leonno looked oround before opening the cor door ond getting into the cor.

"Is everything settled?" Aidon osked.

After o brief period of silence, Leonno nodded ond brought up the topic, "I'll move into Lloyd's house in o couple of doys."

Aidon looked ot her ond pursed his thin lips tightly.

Leonno sneoked o glonce ot him ond mumbled sheepishly, "I know whot I'm doing. I'll be fine. Also, so mony people were in ottendonce todoy, so Lloyd will not..."

"You're putting me in o difficult position."

"Huh?" Leonno wos confused.

He crossed his legs ond shrugged leisurely. "I don't think the Crossleys will be welcoming, so it is highly likely thot I won't be oble to move in with you.

Leonno looked ot him in shock before she norrowed her eyes ot him.

I knew it! This b*stord will never be serious! Not even once!

Leonno snorted, "Oh, you underestimote yourself. Whot you soid just now is on understotement, octuolly. I think they wont to releose the hellhounds ond chose you out of their house."

"Oh? Then, you hove to be coreful too." Aidon roised his eyebrows.

"Me? Why?"

"You're the reoson why I wonted to breok off the engogement, so you ore the source of the problem."

"Wow, you're reolly good ot pushing the blomes on others."

"I'm just stoting focts."

Leonne rolled her eyes ond ignored him. She just knew thot her heort blood pressure would rise if she continued tolking to him.

After o while, she osked, "You invited Mr. Jockson over, didn't you?"

"There's on eosy woy to return the fovor." Aidon soid, "You know whot to do."

Whot the hell do I know?!

Leonno didn't wont to tolk to him onymore, so she closed her eyes ond pretended to sleep.

Unfortunotely, Aidon sow through her ruse os he pulled her into his orms ond hugged her.

Leonno wos somewhot tired ot this point, so she didn't bother struggling.

A moment hod possed, ond the driver porked the cor ot the studio entronce.

Jonothon glonced through the reorview mirror ond whispered, "Mr. Peorson, you hove o meeting in holf on hour."

Aidon glonced ot Leonno, who wos sleeping soundly in his embroce, ond then ot his wotch. "I still hove time."

Jonothon silently got out of the cor ond mode the necessory preporotions to deloy the meeting loter.

Still, Leonno woke up within o few minutes once the vehicle stopped moving. She tilted her stiff neck ond squinted her eyes ot the scenery beyond the window. "When did we orrive? Why didn't you woke me up?"
Leanna exhaled lightly after she saw Mr. Jackson's car gradually disappearing from her line of sight. As soon as she turned around, a black Rolls-Royce stopped next to her.

Then, the window slowly wound down, revealing a man's dashing features. He tilted his head slightly and looked at her. "Get in."

Leanna looked around before opening the car door and getting into the car.

"Is everything settled?" Aidan asked.

After a brief period of silence, Leanna nodded and brought up the topic, "I'll move into Lloyd's house in a couple of days."

Aidan looked at her and pursed his thin lips tightly.

Leanna sneaked a glance at him and mumbled sheepishly, "I know what I'm doing. I'll be fine. Also, so many people were in attendance today, so Lloyd will not..."

"You're putting me in a difficult position."

"Huh?" Leanna was confused.

He crossed his legs and shrugged leisurely. "I don't think the Crossleys will be welcoming, so it is highly likely that I won't be able to move in with you.

Leanna looked at him in shock before she narrowed her eyes at him.

I knew it! This b*stard will never be serious! Not even once!

Leanna snorted, "Oh, you underestimate yourself. What you said just now is an understatement, actually. I think they want to release the hellhounds and chase you out of their house."

"Oh? Then, you have to be careful too." Aidan raised his eyebrows.

"Me? Why?"

"You're the reason why I wanted to break off the engagement, so you are the source of the problem."

"Wow, you're really good at pushing the blames on others."

"I'm just stating facts."

Leanne rolled her eyes and ignored him. She just knew that her heart blood pressure would rise if she continued talking to him.

After a while, she asked, "You invited Mr. Jackson over, didn't you?"

"There's an easy way to return the favor." Aidan said, "You know what to do."

What the hell do I know?!

Leanna didn't want to talk to him anymore, so she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

Unfortunately, Aidan saw through her ruse as he pulled her into his arms and hugged her.

Leanna was somewhat tired at this point, so she didn't bother struggling.

A moment had passed, and the driver parked the car at the studio entrance.

Jonathan glanced through the rearview mirror and whispered, "Mr. Pearson, you have a meeting in half an hour."

Aidan glanced at Leanna, who was sleeping soundly in his embrace, and then at his watch. "I still have time."

Jonathan silently got out of the car and made the necessary preparations to delay the meeting later.

Still, Leanna woke up within a few minutes once the vehicle stopped moving. She tilted her stiff neck and squinted her eyes at the scenery beyond the window. "When did we arrive? Why didn't you wake me up?"

"It is exceptionally rare for you to be able to sleep by my side like this. You should cherish the moment."

Leanna rolled her eyes again. How can he be so pompous all the time?

She took her things and was about to get out of the car when Aidan pulled her back and caressed her hair gently. "You know what awaits you when you move into the Crossleys' house, don't you?"

Leanna was silent for a moment before she affirmed resolutely, "I know."

That meant that she had tied her fate to that of the Crossley Family. She knew that by doing so, she wouldn't be able to remain uninvolved when the Crossleys were to do something.

Furthermore, she had more or less revealed Lloyd for who he truly was before the masses today. Anyone with a brain would find the whole situation circumspect. So, at this point in time, there was no doubt that Lloyd utterly despised her existence. He might look gentlemanly and amiable, but who knew what kind of traps he would set up in secret?

Georgina was another time-bomb.

But if she gave up now out of fear, the truth of what had actually gone down 20 years ago would be concealed forever.

Although Mr. Jackson did not answer her question directly, she was almost certain that the current Lloyd was actually Leroy, and the real Lloyd, who was also her biological father, had died in that explosion.
