Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 4

The Pearsons, who disliked Leanna from the beginning, came to detest her even further after the fake pregnancy came to light.

Due to that, they had been treating Leanna as if she did not exist.

No wonder Aidan was so angry. It turns out that I touched on the wrong subject.

…

After heading back, Leanna waited another few days for Aidan's response. Yet, there was still no news from him.

Their brief meeting at Patheon Club that night made her suspect the reason why he was so desperately dragging this on; it was clearly to spite her so that she would be recognized as someone's wife who was being cheated on.

Is he using this to take revenge against what I did to him in the past?

Even though he was willing to drag this out, she was not. She only planned on taking action for her future after settling the matters of the divorce.

Still, she had to live her own life instead of sitting around like this.

After hearing that Leanna was seeking a job, Zoe put down the bag of chips in her hands and said excitedly, "Come work for our magazine! I heard that they are searching for a designer in hopes of establishing a brand."

Despite being hyped up by her friend, Leanna frowned upon hearing it. "Can I… even do it? I haven't published anything in three years."

"Sweetie, you can do it. Besides, you can always try. It's not like you have anything to lose."

Thinking that her words made sense, Leanna nodded. "Okay."

Due to Zoe being the type to immediately act on what she said, she brought Leanna's work from three years ago to the editor-in-chief's office the next day.

After looking through everything, Harvey Mancini, the head editor saw the signature in the design and stated, "McK's your friend?"

"Yes. She's super capable and her designs are all very unique. We'll only stand to lose if we do not sign her."

Of course, Harvey knew how capable she was. McK's appearance in the field of jewelry design resembled a rose bloom which appeared for a fleeting moment before disappearing.

Some said that she lost her inspiration after getting the award, so she stopped producing any more designs.

Some also said that a wealthy individual fancied her, so she married into money and lived a quiet life ever since.

All in all, there were all sorts of rumors floating around.

However, he did not expect that after three years, she would return just as everybody was about to forget her existence.
