Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 170

Chapter 170

Seeing that Leanna was silent, Zoe sort of figured out the reason for that. She patted her on the shoulder, saying, "Nana, what are you thinking about? If you think the work is exhausting, we can hire however many designers we want, but I won't allow you to quit… Actually, to be honest, I think that b*stard doesn't seem to be making things difficult for you on purpose. He seems to have an ax to grind."

She frowned. "What is he up to, then?"

She thought about it for a while. Then, she said slowly, "What else could a man seek in a woman? You've got pretty looks and a nice figure. If I were him, I'd have the hots for you, too."

After being speechless for a while, Leanna snapped, "Just shut up."

Meanwhile, at the Pearson Group, Aidan sank into his chair, propping his head with his right hand while tapping his temples in thought. After two minutes, he said on the intercom, "Come in."

Jonathan showed up in the office soon afterward. "What can I do for you, President Pearson?"

Raising his eyes slightly, he asked impassively, "What is Elijah Parker's relationship with Leanna?"

He asked tentatively, "President Pearson, do you remember President Parker?"

He sank back into his chair with his face devoid of emotion. "Constellation Tech has been aggressive since its return from abroad last May, and Elijah Parker is called the tech industry's future. Do you think I shouldn't remember him?"

Jonathan curled his lips in secret. So, he did it on purpose when he said at the time that he had no impression of President Parker, he thought. He replied, "As far as I know, Mrs. Pearson and President Parker were there today to attend their class reunion."

Aidan frowned. "She was classmates with Zayn, too. And here comes another ex-classmate named Elijah?"

He corrected him, saying, "Mrs. Pearson and Mr. Barnett might not be ex-classmates, but he was definitely her first love."
