Chapter 52

In the meantime, Zoe was staring at Aidan. For some reason, she kept having the feeling that the meaning behind Aidan's words was pointing at her. Therefore, she also turned to look at Leanna. "What is it, Nana?"

As for Leanna, her mind was currently a mess. "It's nothing. I—"

Seeing Leanna's state, Aidan merely snorted. Then, he retracted his gaze and strode away.

When Leanna saw Aidan leave after stirring up chaos, she flipped out completely. Not only that, she even had the urge to stab him and perish together with him. He dares to turn and f*cking leave after triggering the situation to its climax with a few words!

Zoe wasn't a fool either. Sensing something was really off, she quickly pieced together Aidan's words, Jeanette's provocation, Anthony's inexplicable behavior today, and Leanna's reminder from not long ago. And just like that, she came up with a conclusion.

She quickly calmed down. "Nana, show me the video."

Without a doubt, Anthony was the first who was panic-stricken. It took him by complete surprise that Leanna would possess crucial evidence like recording a video. Therefore, he hurriedly went to pull Zoe away. "Baby, let's go back—"

However, Zoe shook him off with force. Raging with fury, she yelled, "Don't touch me!"

With her eyes gazing straight at Anthony, she smiled and said, "Seeing you're wrapped in nervousness, I don't think I need to watch the video anymore. So are you going to confess it yourself? Or do you want me to bring that side chick of yours over, and I'll confront you two at the same time on this matter?"

"Baby, it's not like what you think. There's really nothing going on between me and her. I just—"

At once, Zoe abruptly cut him off. "Just can't keep it in your pants? Anthony, you sure are something. You dare to cheat right under my nose!"

Regardless, Anthony still attempted to make his final struggle in getting Zoe back to his side. "Listen to me—"

Thinking she had enough of this, Zoe took a deep breath. Then, she said coldly, "It's either you leave, or I'll go in and announce to everybody in there about what the two of you have been secretly up to behind my back. When that happens, you'll lose your job too.

Upon hearing that, Anthony gritted his teeth. Within seconds, he had made his choice. He chose to leave.

After he left, Leanna called out softly, "Zoe—"

Looking at them, Zoe forced a smile. "Don't worry. I'm fine. It's better for me to learn about his true colors now than finding out after—"

Even though Zoe didn't finish her sentence, Leanna knew what she wanted to say. After all, she knew how much Zoe was looking forward to getting married during this period.

Zoe then mumbled, "I'll head home first. I still have to clean up Anthony's stuff and throw them out overnight. Zayn, I'll entrust you to send Leanna home."

"Sure."

Just as Zoe was about to leave, Leanna grabbed Zoe's hand and held her back. "Zoe, let me accompany you."
