Chapter 206

Leanna went to brew some tea, and Zoe followed her. "Who's that guy with Aidan, Nana?" she whispered.

As Leanna poured her tea, she answered, "His business partner."

That confused Zoe. "Why did he bring his business partner here?"

It was then that realization struck Leanna.

She's right. William is Aidan's business partner, not mine. But for some reason, when William told her he wanted to see the studio, she wasn't even surprised, nor did she refuse. Leanna gave her permission easily. Nothing felt out of place.

She capped the tin of tea and quickly came up with a response, "Yeah, I know, but I met Mr. Morris once, and we got along, so…"

Oh ho. She's getting nervous. Zoe asked, "You met him thanks to Aidan, right?"

Zoe smiled. "I was just kidding. Go. They're waiting for you."

Leanna was starting to fidget. "Why don't you come with me, Zoe?"

"Nope. I don't wanna die. Every time I see that *ss—President Pearson, it reminds me of my other identity. At this rate, I'm going to develop DID."

Zoe excused herself and scurried off.

As she served them tea, William asked, "Are we disturbing you, Miss McKinney?"

Leanna shook her head. "No. Business is slow today, and I can rest for a bit. You gentlemen have fun. I—" Someone held her wrist and pulled her down onto the sofa.

Aidan said, "If you want to rest, then you should sit. Don't run around."
