Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 15

"Ask Xavier to find out what happened back then," he ordered Jonathan after a few moments.

"Yes, sir." Jonathan nodded and walked away.

I knew she needed money badly, hence why she even schemed me in the first place. But I didn't realize there was so much going on even before that…

If she had known I was the sponsor all this while, does that mean our first meeting was also part of the scheme?

…

"Hey, I noticed Mia was just here. She's been running around here a lot lately," one of the waiters at the Patheon Club's staff lounge commented as he was switching shifts.

"Take a look at who's here today. It would be odd if she didn't show up."

"Did you witness the incident in front of Patheon Club a while ago? Mia is extremely brave. She hides the fact that she is pregnant with President Pearson's child and she even ran to his wife to show off and make a fuss. She really wants the whole world to know that she's a mistress," another waiter said.

In the midst of the conversation, a figure in the corner came to a halt.

"We're talking about President Pearson's mistress here. She shamelessly rides on his coattails and now she's pregnant. Mia is working hard to get Mrs. Pearson out of the way so she can join the Pearson Family. Once she enters the Pearsons, her social status is gonna elevate to the sky; that's what mistresses are capable of."

"It's also strange to see that President Pearson frequently visits the Patheon Club with Mr. Woodley and the others, but he never brings his wife here. Is their relationship that terrible?"

"I bet you don't know about this. Leanna, his wife, wormed her way into the Pearsons. I heard from our manager that she was sold to the Patheon Club and ended up in his bed. She forced him to marry her because she was expecting his child. The Pearsons didn't want to make a big deal out of it because they didn't want to jeopardize their family's reputation, so they let her marry into their family."

"Yes, I heard about that as well. I've also heard that President Pearson despises her. He usually avoids touching her. Otherwise, how come they have been married for three years and have yet to have a child? You must understand how much wealthy families value a descendant. Now that Mia is pregnant… tsk tsk, I believe Leanna's status is insecure."

Bang!

At that moment, someone slammed the locker door shut with a great force.

A gloomy young man emerged from the corner and cast a cold glance at them before walking away with a blank expression.

"What's with the tantrum? It's not like anyone offended him," a disgruntled voice muttered.

"He's only a part-timer, but he's arrogant just because he's the manager's blue-eyed boy."

"I know right. I heard the manager say he's the provincial champion this year. He's attractive and it's natural for him to be a little crazy."

A man approached the bar just as the manager had requested someone to deliver drinks to Aidan's private room. "I'll deliver it instead," Louis said as he went up to the manager.
