Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 281

The two of them were surprised for a while, as they probably did not expect that she would suddenly mention Lloyd and even addressed him by his first name. Even so, they did not take her seriously, since they saw that she was merely a woman. Why would they agree to come here to have a drink with us and beg us for help if they really know some remarkable figures? They're just bluffing at best.

Thinking of that, one of them said, "Stop trying to intimidate us using Mr. Crossley's name. He doesn't care about you people at all. Show some sincerity if you still want to ask us for help."

Hearing that, Leanna scoffed at them. "Such interesting remarks you made there. Even if you two have the guts, how can you help a person whom Lloyd decided to sacrifice as a scapegoat? You guys are just a bunch of grown men seizing the opportunity to insult a woman for fun, that's all. Aren't you guys afraid that your wives and daughters will also show up at such a dinner in the near future?"

The two men were enraged after they heard Leanna's words. At once, they retorted with a cold face, "Don't you dare be cocky! She came to us and begged us for help! No one forced her! Also, do you even know who I am? Show me some respect while you're talking to me!"

At this moment, someone suddenly sneered in a low voice behind them, "There I was, wondering who was the one with such a loud threatening voice. So, it turns out to be you, Mr. Ollander."

Turning his head impatiently, Jimmy Ollander, one of the Crossley Group's executives, scolded, "Who do you even… P-President Pearson…"

Standing tall and straight, Aidan looked at Jimmy without any emotion.

Jimmy's facial expression changed slightly. Then, he explained with an apologetic smile, "President Pearson, I didn't know you're having dinner here too. Sorry for making a fool out of myself in front of you. These two are family members of the Crossley Group's employees. As you know, there have been some internal conflicts in the Crossley Group recently. Those said employees are precisely the ones behind these internal conflicts.

"We didn't expect that the family members of these employees would be so restless as to come and intercede immediately after Mr. Crossley handed them over to the authorities. Since it's related to Mr. Crossley, how can I agree to help them? You see… I, too, can't do anything…"

In other words, Aidan had no business to interfere in this matter, for this was the Crossley Group's internal affairs.

Aidan sniggered before responding, "Based on your remarks, Mr. Ollander, are you saying that I'm being nosy?"

"You've misunderstood me, President Pearson. It's just that this matter is really troublesome. After all, it's difficult to deal with women."

"Mr. Ollander, I understand the difficult situation you're in, but there's something I'm quite curious about."

At once, Jimmy said, "President Pearson, please. Go ahead."
