Chapter 175

The next afternoon, Leanna had just finished eating and was about to enter the office when a call from an unknown number appeared on her phone. After her experience from the previous day, she looked at her phone and hesitated for a while before picking up without saying anything, preparing to hang up as soon as she heard that b*stard's voice coming from the other end. She would never give him a chance to threaten her.

Unexpectedly, what she heard was the voice of an unfamiliar man. "Hello, Miss McKinney, I'm from the moving company. Are you at home now? We've already arrived downstairs at your house."

She was puzzled. "Moving company? I'm not moving at all."

"Yes, let me verify again. You're Leanna, Miss McKinney, right?"

She frowned. "Who called you?"

"I'm sorry, Miss McKinney, it only shows your name, address and contact information."

Leanna fell silent before she took a deep breath. "In that case, please wait for me. I'll come back now."

After hanging up, she kept her phone and exited her office.

Seeing that, Zoe asked, "Nana, where are you going?"

"The moving company called me and said that they're already downstairs, so I'm going back."

"Huh? Let me come with you."

Leanna refused. "It's all right, I'll go back alone."

A girl was already on leave today and another had gone for lunch. If she left, Zoe would be the only one left in the studio.

After a moment of deliberation, Zoe handed the car keys to her. "All right, go and see what's going on. If anything comes up, just give me a call."

"All right."

The studio was not far from her apartment, so Leanna arrived home in just a few minutes. When she opened the car door, she saw the moving company's car parked nearby.

They had also spotted her and instantly walked over. "Are you Miss McKinney?"

She nodded.

The man waved his colleague over, who dragged a large box over on a cart. "Miss McKinney, please sign here. We'll bring it up for you."

She asked, "Do you have a blade that I can borrow?"

"Here."
