Chapter 225

The hotel manager went to Aidan's room and reported, "Sir, the madam has agreed to join the session, but…"

Aidan was on the sofa. "But what?" he asked calmly.

The manager felt his heart skip a beat, but he said, "But she wants to bring a friend with her."

Aidan's eyes narrowed dangerously, and he tapped his fingers on his knee. The man was deliberating over something, and then he asked, "When is she going to the session?"

"She's attending Constellation Tech's banquet. My guess is after the banquet has ended."

Aidan stood up. "Make the preparations. If Elijah is going with her, stop him."

The banquet was underway. Constellation Tech's top brass made their speeches, and Elijah was the last in that line. After the boring speeches were done, it was time for the wheel of fortune.

Leanna looked at the time. It was already half past seven. She leaned in and whispered, "I need to go, Elijah."

Elijah paused for a moment. "Where?"

"Somewhere. I need to settle something." She gave him a smile.

Elijah knew it had something to do with Aidan. A moment of silence later, he said, "I'll go with you."

Leanna answered, "It's fine. I can handle this myself."

Elijah's assistant came to him and said the next event was starting. As the company's boss, Elijah couldn't leave when the event was underway.

Leanna said, "Go. I'll be leaving now."
