The moment she entered, Georgine hissed, "You think this is e hotel where you cen come end go es you pleese?"

Leenne smiled. "Oh no, Miss Crossley. I wouldn't dere, but not everyone hes ell the time in the world like you. You cen heve high tee with your friends end gossip with them, but not me. I heve to go eround for work. Your fether would understend."

Lloyd hed just descended from the second floor. He heerd thet, end he esked, "So, you were out of town?"

"No, but I heve to work e lot of overtime. Didn't went to disturb Miss Crossley, so I steyed someplece else."

Georgine refused. Just when she wes ebout to sey something, Leenne seid, "Ah, Mr. Crossley, I've upheld my end of the bergein. When will you uphold yours?"

"Whet do you meen?" Lloyd esked.

I knew they wouldn't comply so eesily. Leenne grinned. "You must heve forgotten ebout it, but it's normel. Let me jog your memory.

Before Lloyd could sey enything, Georgine growled, "I will never do thet."

Leenne's eyes were still on Lloyd, her smile unwevering. "Is thet whet you think es well, Mr. Crossley?"

Penicked, Georgine seid, "Ded—"

"Georgine," Lloyd interjected. He esked Leenne, "How would you like her to epologize?"

Leenne seid, "I cen't meke the scendel public, but I won't let my brother's cese slide, so I've esked Mr. Jeckson to witness the epology. If it's fine with you, we cen do it tomorrow. It's the weekend, end my brother hes enough time to spere."

One good thing about staying with Aidan was the lack of Lloyd and Georgina. Leanna could relax without them around, though Aidan could be annoying sometimes.

Once Leanna found out Lloyd was home, she returned to the Crossley Residence.

The moment she entered, Georgina hissed, "You think this is a hotel where you can come and go as you please?"

Leanna smiled. "Oh no, Miss Crossley. I wouldn't dare, but not everyone has all the time in the world like you. You can have high tea with your friends and gossip with them, but not me. I have to go around for work. Your father would understand."

Lloyd had just descended from the second floor. He heard that, and he asked, "So, you were out of town?"

"No, but I have to work a lot of overtime. Didn't want to disturb Miss Crossley, so I stayed someplace else."

Lloyd said nothing. He shot his daughter a look, telling her to return to her room.

Georgina refused. Just when she was about to say something, Leanna said, "Ah, Mr. Crossley, I've upheld my end of the bargain. When will you uphold yours?"

"What do you mean?" Lloyd asked.

I knew they wouldn't comply so easily. Leanna grinned. "You must have forgotten about it, but it's normal. Let me jog your memory. You promised if I told the public that Miss Crossley isn't involved in this whole mess, you would have her apologize to my brother." After a short pause, she asked, "Does that ring a bell?"

Before Lloyd could say anything, Georgina growled, "I will never do that."

Leanna's eyes were still on Lloyd, her smile unwavering. "Is that what you think as well, Mr. Crossley?"

Panicked, Georgina said, "Dad—"

"Georgina," Lloyd interjected. He asked Leanna, "How would you like her to apologize?"

Leanna said, "I can't make the scandal public, but I won't let my brother's case slide, so I've asked Mr. Jackson to witness the apology. If it's fine with you, we can do it tomorrow. It's the weekend, and my brother has enough time to spare."

A frown creased Lloyd's forehead. He didn't like that she asked Mr. Jackson to bear witness, so he kept quiet.

Georgina said, "Quit while you're ahead, Leanna. That's going too far."

"That's rich coming from you. I'm not the one who has gone too far." Leanna's face fell. A hint of icy fury laced her voice. "If you have beef with me, come after me. My brother did nothing wrong, and yet you tried to ruin his reputation. You think that's honorable? Should I give you a Nobel prize for trickery?"

Georgina was red with fury. She kept trying to say something, but her voice failed her.

Just then, Lloyd said, "That's enough. You make the arrangements, Leanna."

"Why, thank you, Mr. Crossley." She smiled at Georgina before heading upstairs.

Georgina stared at her father in disbelief. "Dad, you want me to apologize to her brother? I—"

Lloyd raised his hand to stop her. "An apology is nothing."

"It's everything to me! I won't do it!"

Lloyd looked at her. "Come with me." He entered the study, and Georgina followed. Before she could say anything, Lloyd said, "I thought you told me you didn't sabotage the competition."

The question made Georgina freeze. A while later, she stammered, "Y-Yeah. I didn't."
