Chapter 287

After some time, Leanna finally piped up, "It's okay, Louis. Like what you've said, he wouldn't dare to appear in public. He's purely after the money, so he won't become a threat to me. Don't worry about me. Besides, I'm perfectly fine right now."

Louis maintained a cold expression without uttering a word.

A few minutes later, he finally responded, "I'll definitely locate him."

Leanna shook her head. "Louis, don't get involved in this matter. I can handle this."

Yet, he replied, "You don't need to be conscious of my feelings because to me, he's not worthy to be a father. He's just a lowlife and I would rather he be dead."

Leanna heaved a silent sigh. "Louis…"

"I know what to do. You…" Louis continued, "Forget about it. Aidan will definitely be able to protect you."

At that moment, Leanna was speechless by that.

She responded by asking probingly, "When did you find out?"

Louis said, "Isn't it obvious?"

She instantly kept mum at that point.

After Louis left, Leanna sat back on the couch and hugged a pillow in her arms.

Zoe sat next to her and said, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have told Louis about this. He must be upset about this."

Leanna replied, "He will end up finding out even if you didn't tell him."

"Do you think Jethro will seek you out again?"

"Yes, he definitely will."

Jethro would definitely reappear since he did not obtain any money today.

Zoe frowned in response. "But then, the photos are in his possession after all. What if he ends up releasing the photos out of desperation?"
