Chapter 70

Aidan got up and said indifferently, "I'll give you three days to think about it. If you have other requests, tell me all at once. If you miss this chance, you will never have the chance anymore."

After walking to the door, Aidan stopped in his tracks and added, "If you had made the right choice earlier, your brother wouldn't have sacrificed his own future for the mere cost of one hundred thousand dollars."

Leanna gritted her teeth, and her eyes turned scarlet, but she controlled herself not to cry.

After he left, she pulled out the IV drip needle on the back of her hand.

While walking out of the hospital, she called Zoe, but Louis no longer worked at the previous convenience store. She could not find him after searching all night.

When Leanna reunited with Zoe, she was startled to see Leanna's pale face and red eyes. "Nana, what happened?"

Leanna shook her head and answered, "Let's look for Louis first."

When it was getting dark, he finally answered the call.

She calmly asked, "Louis, where are you?"

"I'm in military training—"

"Give me the address."

Louis, on the other end of the phone, was silent before saying, "Outsiders can't come in during the military training."

"Pass the phone to your teacher or instructor, and I'll tell them."

This time, he stopped talking.

Leanna was exhausted and asked repeatedly, "Louis, where are you?"

Louis was looking for a job near Southfork University. He thought that if Leanna came to look for him, he could tell her that he was working part-time here.

Yet, he did not expect that she would find out so quickly. After a while, he uttered, "Don't run around. I'll go to you."

While he was on the way, Zoe learned from Leanna what happened earlier and was rendered speechless.
