Chapter 16

It was the part-timer again. Neither of them said anything as they stared at each other.

Just as Louis was about to step forward again, Aidan's bodyguard appeared and quickly subdued him.

Mia and the Patheon Club's manager rushed over just as the bodyguard was asking Aidan on how to proceed with the situation.

Aidan did not seem to have the patience to further drag this on before coldly instructing, "Call the police."

As such, the manager instantly rushed forward and pleaded, "President Pearson! President Pearson, there must be some misunderstanding here. Louis doesn't usually do this. Hey, Louis. Apologize to President Pearson now..."

Although Louis was restrained, he did not appear embarrassed; instead, he replied coldly, "I won't apologize. He knew what he did."

"Well, you tell me. What did I do?"

Louis gave Mia a side-eye before looking at Aidan and scoffed, "Everyone knows about your scandals. Do I have to spell it out for you?"

Mia's gaping mouth was hanging in the air just as she was about to refute, but she ended up swallowing her words upon meeting with Aidan's indifferent gaze.

"President Pearson, when Miss Clark and... When she made a fuss at the entrance of Patheon Club previously, many people witnessed it," the manager admitted in embarrassment.

Aidan returned his gaze to Louis before raising his hand to motion the bodyguards to take him away.

"Hand me his information," Aidan said to the manager. With Louis' temper, he did not seem like a righteous man playing a white knight in the eyes of Aidan.

As soon as the manager left, Mia hurriedly called out, "President Pearson, I..."

"Just take what I gave you while I'm still nice and don't even dream about other things by coming at me with your pathetic ruses." With that, he went straight into the empty private room next to him.

Biting her lower lip nervously, Mia was left standing alone and confused. How? How can Leanna marry into the Pearson Family by worming her way in and when it comes to me, I receive nothing?

Soon enough, the manager arrived at the private room with Louis' information. "President Pearson, here's all the information you asked for."

Aidan cast a glance on the document and spit out two words, "Louis McKinney."

"Yes, President Pearson. He..."

"Does he have a sister?"

"I don't know about that. I haven't heard him mention it," the manager was perplexed.

After that, Aidan set the document down and gave the manager a phone number. "Phone this number and ask."

It was 11.00PM and Leanna was lying on her bed after taking a shower. She was about to listen to music before going to bed when her phone rang.
