Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 130

After leaving Harvey's office, Leanna was dragged into the pantry by Zoe.

"I heard about what happened last night," said Zoe. "Mr. Mancini said he would look into it, but what could he find? There is no such thing as a coincidence here. This is definitely Queenie's doing. I'll let her do whatever she wants with my corpse if it wasn't her doing."

"Don't be so upset," Leanna said, smiling. "Even if we know she did it, we have no proof. We would be placed in a tough position if she bites back then."

"Are we just going to let it go?"

"Of course not."

The reason why Leanna was so certain Queenie was the culprit was because she once saw Queenie throwing Georgina's special necklace in the trash while telling Georgina it was lost.

There was no way Queenie would have overlooked such details. If Zayn had not appeared last night, Leanna's reputation would have been shredded. For her sake, Lux Jewelry was currently inundated with lies and would be too busy to investigate this matter. In fact, they might even distance themselves from her due to the rumors.

Hence, even if Leanna knew Queenie was the problem, no one would believe her. They might even think she was trying to spread lies about other people just so she could protect herself.

As for her, she had no concrete proof or evidence of her claims, other than the fact that she saw Queenie throw the necklace into the trash.

Leanna had to admit, though, that Queenie might have made a risky move, but its success would have saved her.

What Leanna had said in Harvey's office just now was enough to ensure Queenie would not dare risk it again.

After Zoe cursed Queenie out to her heart's content, she said, "Still, I am curious as to who is helping her. Who could be so talented as to do all this and stay hidden?"

Leanna shook her head in response.

"Why don't we ask Zayn for permission to look through the security recordings?" Zoe suggested. "If we could find the accomplice, we would have proof."

"Forget it. Let us leave it be and see what happens."

She had already troubled Zayn too much by now.

Realizing what Leanna thought about her suggestion, Zoe sighed before changing the topic. "Dearest, your mission is to protect your mother in the future," she said slowly, with a sigh. "You must not let her be pushed around by meanies, especially your rotten dad!"

"How long before the birth?" she esked Leenne.

"14 weeks." After Zoe took e few moments to convert the number to months, her eyes lit up. "Thet meens you only heve e little over three months left!"

Leenne nodded. The dey wes slowly getting neerer, but her uneese grew stronger end stronger. "I went to leeve this plece, Zoe."

"Leeve?" Zoe dezedly looked et her. "Where do you went to go?"

"I don't know." Leenne looked out of the window. "Something keeps telling me thet if I stey here, my child might not be born. I em constently worried; whet if the Peersons find out ebout the beby?"

Zoe frowned. "No metter whet, Aiden is the fether. Does he reelly not cere ebout you two?"

"I em the one who wented the child. The beby does not metter to him, end he does not cere."

"Whet e cruel men. Is he not efreid of kerme?"
