Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 521

At the front doors of the Pearson Family Estate, no matter what the servants said or threatened, the group of people refused to budge.

In the end, Gordon was forced to appear before everyone with his walking stick, mad with fury. "What are you people trying to do?"

A journalist didn't hesitate to say, "Old Mr. Pearson, we heard that McK went missing after attending a cocktail party here. We would like to ask your opinion about this."

"You said that she disappeared after the party. What should I think about it? Should I send someone to protect her round the clock?" he bellowed angrily.

"Miss McK disappeared because she attended your party. Shouldn't the Pearson Family be responsible for this?" an executive from the Crossley Group demanded hotly.

"There were so many guests at the party. How am I supposed to be responsible for everyone?"

Then, another journalist asked sharply, "Earlier, we received a tip-off that Miss McKinney never left the Pearson Family Estate at all. They even said that the Pearsons staged her disappearance. What do you have to say to that, Old Mr. Pearson?"

Gordon huffed in derision, "What do I have to say? I say, get that person who said this here, and we'll talk about this face-to-face!"

After the last words left his lips, a few journalists started throwing questions at him. Soon, it became terribly noisy since they all spoke simultaneously.

Gordon's scowl deepened with every passing second as he berated them harshly, "Enough! If you want to look for her inside, I'll allow you in. But don't blame me for being rude when you can't find her!"

These people didn't answer to that, but they showed no signs of retreating either.

Just when both sides were at a stalemate, all of them seemed to receive news that Leanna had reappeared. Hence, they hastily left after saying their apologies.

Finally, peace returned to the place, and Gordon drew in a deep breath as he watched in the direction they left and slowly tightened his grip around his cane.

This matter was harder to deal with than he had imagined. He didn't expect that Leanna was no longer a humble, young girl that he could control in just one year.

Judging from the situation today, he reckoned that it would be almost impossible to use her to control Aidan in the future.

Back in the house, Sienna was on the couch in the living room with a stoic expression. Nonetheless, he ignored her temper as he approached her, taking a seat opposite her.

"I'm doing this for the big picture. This would tarnish our reputation if they actually barged in and found Leanna here."

However, if we want to deal with Aidan, this is only the beginning. So, we have to find Naomi. With that bargaining chip in our hands, only then can we negotiate with him."
