Chapter 340

When Leanna was done with her meal, she felt comfortable, a feeling that she seemed to have missed for the past couple of days.

"It is," Aidan replied indifferently.

"Actually, I feel that William is a mysterious man." After a brief moment of thought, she then continued, "Since he's a businessman, he should be well aware of what's going on with the Crossley Group. Yet, he still chose to collaborate with them at such a time. Either he plans to use Crossley Group as a stepping stone and use this short period of collaboration as an opportunity to expand his business, or…"
