Chapter 144

Jonathan could only bitterly inside. I think you should worry about yourself first! You are in much deeper trouble than you think you are!

In actuality, he had already suppressed the incident concerning Leanna.

Aidan continued, "This woman wouldn't even know what caused her downfall upon death if it wasn't for me."

"President Pearson…"

"From the charity event last time up until today's scandal, it looks like someone desperately wanted her reputation to be ruined. Therefore, whoever we should be looking into now will be the person who would benefit the most from Leanna's departure from Lux."

Pondering for a while, Jonathan knew what he was getting at. "What you mean… is the perpetrator might be an employee of Lux?"

While leaning against his chair with a cold look, Aidan replied, "That sharp tongue of hers must've pissed a lot of people off. Let's start off with the ones that are the most suspicious."

"Understood." Jonathan almost left the office before he turned back. "Then… What about the other matters?"

"There's no point in worrying ourselves with things that we have no control over. She'll naturally stop when the desired outcome is achieved."

Jonathan was rather shocked upon this statement. "President Pearson, you know who's the mastermind?"

In return, Aidan only lifted his gaze at him emotionlessly which made Jonathan reply, "I'll get to business on Madam's affairs right now."

After he left, the office descended into silence.

Standing up, Aidan arrived in front of the window with both hands in his pocket as he stared at the busy street below while deep in thought.

It was moments later when the phone on the table rang.

Turning back, he noticed it was from Leanna yet chose not to move from the spot.

The phone rang until the ringtone ended and the screen faded to darkness.

Directing his gaze elsewhere, he stood for another few minutes before picking up his phone and dialing back.

It was only a few seconds when Leanna's voice came from the other side. "President Pearson, were you busy just now?"

He grunted coldly. "I was."
