I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 445

Chapter 445

After Zoe returned to the studio, she divided the food among the girls and took the rest to Leanna's office. As soon as she sat down, she sprawled on the table before letting out another long sigh.

Seeing this, Leanna asked, "What's wrong?"

"I met Anthony." Zoe immediately blew her top when she brought this up.

Leanna also let out a frown when she heard that. "How did you bump into him?" she asked quickly.

"I don't know," Zoe grumbled. "Probably because I forgot to check the almanac before I went out. That was why I stepped on sh*t."

"What did he do to you?"

"He didn't do anything other than beg for my forgiveness. I chewed him out, but…"

When Leanna heard the pause, she tilted her head and waited for her friend to finish her sentence.

Zoe suddenly pulled and tugged her hair as she muttered, "Forget it! Just thinking about it annoys me!"

As she spoke, she tore open a bag of snacks but just as she was about to stuff her face, she suddenly realized this was the snack that Daniel chose.

She looked at the bag again and felt she needed to be rescued for a moment there. What amazingly sh*t fate is this? she fumed. Why is everything I kept chosen by Daniel?

Dejected, she grumbled, "I'm not eating anymore."

Leanna couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Zoe's antics. "What do you want to eat?" She then picked up her phone. "I'll get something delivered."

"Pizza! Let's go after work."

"Sure."

…

The Crossley Group's anniversary ceremony finally came after a few peaceful days went by.

When Leanna went out late in the morning, Lloyd informed her, "The event is at 6.00PM. You can go there straight from work."


"Okay." Leanna smiled.

After she left, Lloyd turned his head to Georgina and asked, "Is everything prepared?"

Georgina nodded in response. "It's done," she replied, to which Lloyd added, "We will leave after everything has been put in the car."

He then stood up after he spoke, but Georgina quickly called out to him again. "Dad, are we really not coming back anymore?"

"Yes." That was all he uttered before he entered the study.

Now that she was left alone, Georgina pursed her lips and trudged out of the living room.

The subordinate, who was waiting off to one side, saw her and immediately went over to greet her. "Miss Crossley."

"Do as I say."

As soon as her subordinate heard that, he nodded and shuffled away.

Georgina continued to look into the distance when a laugh suddenly slipped. Let's see who else can save Leanna this time.

Lloyd, who was in the study, took out a few documents from the table and he sneered when he looked at the contract he had signed with Leanna.

He was going to give her everything including the Crossley Group if that was what she wanted.

Before leaving, he turned his head and glanced at the books in the room, his gaze growing sinister.

The things here were all arranged according to his preferences so that people wouldn't find anything odd and yet, he didn't need any of this anymore.

After today, he could finally tear off this disgusting mask and be himself again.

He went to the warehouse after leaving the Crossley Residence. "Bring him here," he ordered while sitting in the car.

His subordinates gave a short reply of acknowledgment before Jethro was promptly dragged out of the warehouse, yelling, "Where are you taking me? What about the money you promised me?!"

Lloyd swiftly lowered the car window and threw a check out, in which Jethro pulled away from the people that held him. He then picked up the check from the floor as though it was a treasure. "This is the first time I've ever seen so much money!" he said in a singsong voice.

As he spoke, he counted the profusion of zeroes on it.

"Are you done confirming the amount?" Lloyd threw out. "Come in if you're done."

At that, Jethro held the check and approached Lloyd. He still wasn't at ease as he stood right outside the car window. "This isn't a blank check, is it? What if I don't get the money?"

"It's under the Crossley Group," Lloyd said unhurriedly. "Do you think such a big company can't afford to pay the sum?"

"Fine, I'll believe y—no. I'll believe the Crossley Group one more time."

The Crossley Group's headquarters alone were dozens of stories tall. Furthermore, they couldn't lie their way around it since Lloyd's name was written on the check.

Before leaving, Lloyd reminded Jethro, "Remember what you should and shouldn't say. Say anything wrong and I will have the check burned."

"Hehe, don't worry. I got it. I told you I’ll make sure you’re satisfied."

…

Leanna was still on the road when she received a call from Aidan saying that he would come to pick her up in the afternoon.

Right when she arrived at the studio, Daniel also came over to talk to her about the anniversary ceremony tonight as he always did.

Everyone knew that Lloyd would make a big move, but they didn't know what he would do, not to mention that Jethro was still in his hands.
