Chapter 320

If it was fake, it meant that Aidan was bluffing. By admitting it now, Georgina would fall into his trap.

However, if it was true, Aidan totally had the guts to send the video to the media. He didn't have any regard for anyone. Moreover, he was on bad terms with the Crossley Group.

Presently, the Crossley Group had been targeted. If such a video was leaked, the impact it would have on her would be incalculable.

Seeing that she remained silent, Aidan went on to say, "What's wrong, Miss Crossley? Aren't you a proud person? Don't you have the guts to admit what you've done?"

A moment later, Georgina took a deep breath and straightened her back. "Yes, I was the one who did it. Although I was the one who jabbed a needle into the horse, I couldn't possibly control the direction it was heading. Animals are intelligent creatures. As the target of the attack, shouldn't Miss McKinney reflect upon herself? There were so many people in the club. Why did the horse go straight to her?"

It was the first time Leanna heard about such sophistry. As a victim, she was being blamed for what happened to her.

Without getting mad, she replied with a smile, "Miss Crossley, do you also mean that I have myself to blame that Karen only makes things difficult for me when Highside is such a huge city?"

After a pause, she continued, "By the way, there's something I have to tell you. She didn't die in the car crash. In fact, she regained consciousness last week, and she was transferred to a general ward two days ago. She's pretty clear-headed now, and she can accurately recall your license plate number."

While Georgina was stunned, Aidan turned to look at Leanna and arched his brow. He seemed to be asking why she never told him about it.

It wasn't that Leanna didn't want to tell him about it; rather, she didn't have a chance to do so.

Recently, she had been swamped with work.

If it had not been for the incident on this day, she would have waited for a more suitable chance to break it to him.

Georgina pressed her lips together and balled up her fists that were resting on her knees. She never expected that Leanna would gain such evidence that could be used against her.

There was a gentle smile on Leanna's face. "Don't worry, Miss Crossley. I won't tell anyone about it. After all, we'll be family members soon. If your wrongdoing is exposed, it doesn't only affect you but also the Crossley Group. Hence, that will have an impact on me as well."

Georgina stood straight up and left the place.

After she was gone, the smile on Leanna's face faded.
