Chapter 499

Aidan's slender fingers tapped against the steering wheel as he calmly stated, "That is because no one thought of getting rid of Jimmy before."

Leanna was stunned by his words but soon snapped out of her daze.

When Leroy was still the head of the Crossley Group, he knew of Jimmy's actions. Since Leroy was not a good man himself, it was likely Jimmy acted arrogant and brazen because Leroy had implicitly approved of Jimmy's actions.

When she thought about it that way, Jimmy certainly had no cause for fear.

Especially since his backer was Leroy, no one would publicly challenge Jimmy.

"I know what to do now," she finally said after a few minutes of silence.

Aidan smiled and turned to look at Leanna. "Do you need my help?"

"No," she replied. "I can handle this. You just need to focus on the Pearson Group."

"Oh, right," she said suddenly. "Why did you come back so late that night? You said you would tell me."

So many things had happened over the past two days that she nearly forgot about his promise.

"It is nothing. Georgina was found."

"Where did you find her?"

It took him a while before he replied, "You just need to know she has been found. Her previous location is not important."

She pouted and decided she was not in the mood to argue. "How is she now?"

"In prison. She does not seem to be doing well."

Pursing her lips, she said, "Well, Georgina has always been a proud woman. A fall from grace is certainly unacceptable to her."

"She deserves it," he said.

"Well… What about Leroy? Any news about him?"

"None."
