Chapter 325
Lloyd had already received the report from his servants when Aidan's car first parked outside the Crossley Residence. There was no doubt that he had also arranged for the servants to stay out of sight.
The purpose of his actions was to teach Leanna a lesson. However, judging by the situation, she seemed to have been unaffected by his actions. On the contrary, since she managed to marry into the Pearson Family back then and even made Aidan pursue her romantically once more, it would seem that she was rather cunning and resourceful.
He placed down the cutlery he was holding. "Perhaps the servants have been slacking off. I will reprimand them later."
Georgina chimed in lightly, "The servants of the Crossley Family are busy with their own affairs, so it's enough if they perform well in their respective duties. There is no rule saying who they should serve." While she said that, she turned to look at Leanna. "Miss McKinney, don't you think so too?"
The smile on Leanna's face remained unfazed. "Of course."
"Since you are so understanding, Miss McKinney, I'll make it clear to you. From now on, you will be responsible for your own daily needs while living in the Crossley Residence. If you are dissatisfied with the conditions, you are free to leave at any time."
"There's nothing to be dissatisfied about."
Georgina said, "That's good. However, we should be frank with each other from the beginning, lest you accuse the Crossley Family of bullying you, don't you think?"
Leanna calmly replied, "If you've finished speaking, Miss Crossley, can you tell me where I can find my room?"
Georgina stood up arrogantly. "Come with me."
Throughout the entire process, Lloyd remained silent. His silence was all the encouragement Georgina needed.
Georgina brought Leanna to the side of the living room and glanced at a door below the stairs. "That's your room. Unfortunately, that room has been vacant for a very long time. You might need to clean the room by yourself, Miss McKinney. Or, you can get a servant to help you if they have finished all their allocated tasks."
As soon as the words left her mouth, the two servants waiting in the living room quickly took their leave.
Leanna said, "No problem. I'll clean the room myself."
