Chapter 434

Leanna got out of bed at 7.00AM.

She didn't keep much here at Crossley Residence. All her important documents were kept at her studio. Thus, when she left that morning, her bag wasn't any much bigger than it usually was.

The rain was still pouring outside the window. The weather had only started getting warmer, but it seemed to be cooling down again, thanks to the rain.

As the car pulled out of Crossley Residence, she turned back to look at the house.

This was supposed to be her home, but it was now the home of her enemies.

Just a little longer. I'll come back again once everything is over.

She was going to come back once she exposed the truth, and hopefully, her parents would be able to rest in peace.

Soon, she got a call from Aidan.

"I already left Crossley Residence," Leanna reported as soon as she answered.

Aidan's mood seemed to improve upon hearing that. "I'll pick you up tonight."

"I got it."

What a clingy b*stard.

She put her phone down with a smile tugging on her lips. All of a sudden, someone shot out onto the road in front of her, and she immediately slammed on the brakes.

Once the car stopped, she wanted to go down and take a look, but the door to the passenger seat opened and a low voice instructed her, "Drive, now."

She turned around to look at the person. Although the man had a cap on and was using his jacket to cover most of his face, she still recognized him at once.

She pursed her lips and sped off.

Less than a minute later, a few men rushed over to the same spot but couldn't find anything.

"I'll head back to report this to Mr. Crossley. The rest of you will carry on with the search," one of the men said.

Ten minutes later, Lloyd stormed into his study with a baleful expression. "Say that again."

His subordinate hung his head low and repeated, "Not too long ago, we found out that the man who ran off a while back had been following us the past few days. We were careless, and he managed to discover where Jethro McKinney was being kept. Also…"

"What else?!" Lloyd barked.

"When we were chasing after him, w-we found that he might've gotten into Miss McKinney's car."

He frowned. "Leanna McKinney? Are you sure?"

"I checked the security footage before I came here. At the time, the only car that left the area belonged to Miss McKinney. We searched the whole area. That man seemed to have disappeared into thin air, so I suspect that he had left in Miss McKinney's car," his subordinate explained.
