Chapter 56

Aidan was telling her that he did not want to give her that chance. He was only doing it because of a promise he made. In other words, he was telling her to be grateful.

Leanna refused to budge, however, as she replied indignantly, "If you're so unhappy with how we did at the show, I think nobody will object if you rescind your promise, will they?"

Aidan turned his sights to Harvey. "Is that what you think as well, Mr. Mancini?" he asked coldly.

Mancini felt himself sweating, and he laughed dryly. "It's not as serious as McK made it out to be. But if you do think nobody's up to par, then it'd be questionable if we still get the slot in the end. Still, thank you for giving us and our designers a chance, sir."

"Somebody here doesn't sound grateful, Mr. Mancini, though," Aidan said indifferently.

Can't you two just close the door and argue slowly when you get home?

Leanna refused to waste any more time. "Thanks for the offer, President Pearson, but I'm not good enough for it." She turned to Harvey. "If there is nothing else, Mr. Mancini, I will go first."

Aidan stood up with a snort after she left. "Is everyone here that arrogant?"

Harvey had no idea what to say to that, so he kept quiet.

Queenie had been waiting for a long time. She approached Aidan the moment he came out. "We meet again, President Pearson," she said sheepishly.

Aidan looked impatient, frowned, and asked the woman blocking the way, "Have we met?"

She was stunned for a while before saying, "I went to your office yesterday. I'm Lux Magazine's designer, do you remember?"

"Yes," he said coolly as he almost forgot that Leanna was not the only designer in the company. He turned to Harvey. "She can have that slot."
