Chapter 202 Stop While You’re Ahead He drove her to a holiday home. Elijah got out of the car andwent around to open the door for her. “Thank you,” she said. “No prob. Let’s go inside.” Leanna lookedat the holiday home. It was lushly decorated, and she thought it felt like a house owned by intellectuals.A servant came to welcome them. “Mr. Jackson is waiting for you in the tea room, sir.” Elijah nodded.He took Leanna to the tea room. Before they went inside, he whispered, “Just say nothing and watchwhat happens, Leanna.” Leanna nodded. “Sure.” A man with gray hair sat in front of the table, and hewas making tea. This man was Mr. Jackson, and sitting before him was a middle-aged couple. Leannawas surprised to see the couple here. Mr. Jackson heard the sounds of footsteps, and he put his teapotdown. When he saw Leanna, it caught him by surprise.

“And this is?” Elijah said, “This is Leanna, my friend.” He told Leanna, “This is Mr. Jackson, my father’smentor.” Leanna said, “Hello, Mr. Jackson.” Mr. Jackson smiled. “You have a gorgeous friend, Elijah.Come. Sit.” Anna’s parents looked at each other. Anna told them Elijah knew Leanna, but they didn’texpect him to bring her here. Mr. Jackson poured a cup of tea for Elijah and Leanna. He said, “This isthe first time Elijah brought someone here. You must be really close to him.” Leanna was a little dazed.She had no idea how to answer that. Elijah smiled. “Sorry, Mr. Jackson. I brought her here for personaland formal reasons. She needs your help.” “Is that so?” Mr. Jackson said, “What happened, girl? Tellme. I’ll help as long as I can.” Anna’s father said, “It’s just a misunderstanding, Mr. Jackson.”

Mr. Jackson looked at them and frowned. “You have something to do with this?” “Miss McKinney hasbad blood with my daughter, but it’s nothing big. Kids fight all the time. I’ve apologized to Mr. Parker,so…” Anna’s parents came to talk about the partnership with Constellation Tech. Ever since Anna goton Elijah’s bad side, he canceled the partnership unilaterally. Anna’s parents broke their backs just toget this chance, and they wouldn’t give the partnership up. Since the cancellation, they’ve sought Elijahout countless times. But Elijah refused to see them, so they pinned their hopes on Mr. Jackson.Previously, Elijah only agreed to the partnership thanks to Mr. Jackson’s help. They thought Elijah

would rekindle the partnership if Mr. Jackson intervened. He was just a young lad after all. Mr. Jacksonsaid, “Alright, that’s confusing. Did you apologize to Elijah or Miss MicKinney?”

Elijah smiled. “Let me explain, Mr. Jackson.” Leanna looked at Elijah, and he nodded at her, telling herto calm down. Elijah told him about what Anna did at Leanna’s workshop. She wasn’t the kid like herparents claimed. That woman was a spoiled brat who thought she could do as she pleased justbecause she was rich. The Pearson couple looked upset, but they had no argument against that. Theyknew how spoiled Anna was, but nobody in the family lectured her, since Leanna was just a nobody. Inthe end, Anna’s mother got upset. She said, “That’s our family matter. Don’t you think you’reoverstepping it a little, Mr. Parker?” Leanna looked at her coolly. “Is it a family matter, really?” “Whyyou…” Anna wanted to say something, but her husband pushed her down. Anna’s father said, “MissMcKinney, I know Anna did wrong by you, but it’s all in the past now. She’s already learnt her lesson.Please, forgive her.” “Yeah. She’s still under house arrest. Don’t push your luck any further, MissMcKinney.”

Leanna smiled. “That’s what she deserves. I didn’t ask for her to be put under house arrest.” Anna’smother shot up. “Just because Elijah’s supporting you doesn’t mean you can sh*t on us, wench! You’rejust used goods Aidan tossed out of the family! You think you’re a bigshot now that you hooked up withElijah? Well, let me tell you something. You’re still nothing!” Anna’s father quickly stood up and held herdown. “I’m sorry, Mr. Jackson. We…” he apologized. “Enough! How much longer do you want to bow tothem? I’m a proud Zielinski, and I bow to no one!” She picked her bag up and was about to storm off.He kept bowing at Mr. Jackson. “I’m so sorry, Mr. Jackson. She didn’t mean what she said. Don’t take itto heart.” Mr. Jackson sipped on his tea. “I can’t help you at this point.” Anna’s mother looked at Elijah,but he spared her no smiles. She gnashed her teeth and left in frustration. Once they were gone, Mr.Jackson sighed. “I’m sorry for not vetting them, Elijah.”

“It’s alright, Mr. Jackson. I just thought I should make things clear for you.” Mr. Jackson said, “It’s theirfault, girl. Don’t take what they said to heart. I never wanted to deal with the Pearsons and Zielinskies’

problems, but Winston used to be my student, and I’d like to help his family if I could.” Leanna smiled.“Thank you, Mr. Jackson.” A servant knocked on the door and told them dinner was ready. Mr. Jacksonstood up. “Well, it’s time for dinner.” Elijah and Leanna followed behind. Elijah whispered, “Sorry for nottelling you earlier, Leanna.” He pursed his lips. “I wanted them to apologize to you though.” Leannasaid, “It’s fine. I never expected their apology.” Anna and Sienna could apologize until their tongues felloff, but it wouldn’t work on Leanna. She would feel nothing but disgust.
