Chapter 217 I’m Not the Problem The station needed time to investigate and collect evidence, so theysent Leanna and Louis home, promising to notify them immediately upon any news. It was already darkout when they left the police station. “Louis, do you still plan to stay at the school after the holidays?”Leanna asked. Louis did not answer immediately. After some thought, he responded, “I’ll crash at yourstudio from tomorrow onward.” “Huh?” She was taken aback by his answer for a moment beforereturning to her senses. He must be worried about me because of what has happened recently. “It’sfine. No one comes to look for trouble anymore. I’m worried for you. How about I rent you a placeoutside during the holidays?” “There’s no need. I can rent it myself.” Hearing this, she laughed andsaid, “Isn’t it the same thing?” Louis stretched his neck as he replied, “I can make my own money now.”Smiling, she did not pester him about the topic any further. Instead, she merely asked, “Where are yougoing to rent? I’ll come with you to check out the place tomorrow morning.” “It’s okay. I’ve seen italready.” Two hours later, Daniel opened the door and looked at the two people standing outside withsurprise. “What are you doing here?” Leanna rubbed her nose and replied, “Sorry for bothering you, butmy brother here is on winter vacation and is currently looking for a place to rent. I just wanna ask if youhave a spare room here.” “About that…” “I’ll pay the rent,” Louis immediately piped up. “That’s not thecase, kid. It’s not about the rent.” Daniel thought for a long time to cook up an excuse. “I grew upabroad, and some of my personal habits and tastes may differ from yours. I’m afraid it’ll make you feeluncomfortable, so it’s best if—” “It’s fine. I like canned food too.” Daniel was at a loss for words. Thatwas the worst excuse he had ever made in his life. When Leanna saw Louis pulling his suitcase in, sheclosed the door and apologized, “Daniel, I’m so sorry, but something happened to me recently and mybrother is worried. That’s why he’s here to live with you. Don’t worry. I’ll convince him to moveelsewhere as soon as possible.” Hearing this, Daniel immediately pulled back his thoughts and asked,“What happened, Miss McKinney? Do you need my help?” “It’s not a big deal and it’s almost resolvedanyway. Again, I’m really sorry about this.” “Since that’s the case, your lil’ brother can live here inpeace. You don’t have to pay rent. We should help each other as neighbors.” “I’m sorry for troubling
you again. If you don’t mind, you can come over to our place to eat at any time in the future,” Leannasuggested. “If that’s the case, I’ll definitely take advantage of that.”
Then, Daniel looked back. “Miss McKinney, I’ll take your brother to the guest room first. We’ll talk morenext time.” “All right. Thank you.” After closing the door behind him, he walked to the living room andpointed at the two rooms to Louis. “You can choose any of those two rooms.” Louis nodded. “Thankyou.” Then, he quickly added, “I won’t use anything in your house, nor will I evade your privacy. I’ll livehere for, at most, a month. As an apology, you can get me to do anything for you.” Daniel sat on thecouch with his hands in his pockets and said with a smile, “You can skip the courtesies. Since we’reliving here together, treat this as your own place. Quickly unpack your stuff.” Hearing this, Louis noddedagain with appreciation. “Thank you.” Ten minutes later, he came out of the guest bedroom. Daniel tooka can of beer from the fridge and threw it to Louis. “Are you on a break now? How was your exam?” “Itwas all right.” “The last time I heard, you did well in your studies. It seems like you’re just being modestnow.” Louis chewed on his bottom lips and said nothing. Daniel sat across from him and opened hisown can of beer. “May I ask if your sister has been in any trouble recently?” “Someone deliberatelywent to her studio to make a scene.”
“Do you think that they’ll do it again?” “Possibly.” Louis’ thin lips pursed slightly. “They even found me.Although their plan failed this time, they’ll definitely make another move.” Surprised by the bridge ofevents, Daniel paused before asking, “In your family… Is there anyone else besides you and yoursister? I don’t recall her bringing it up.” “No.” Louis looked indifferent. Catching the hint that Louis didnot want to dive further into the topic, Daniel rose up and changed the topic. “I’m going out. You canuse whatever you want in this house.” Before he left, he informed Louis the lock code. … AtConstellation Tech, Daniel stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Elijah’s face. “I’m talking toyou. Are you listening?” Elijah was still a little dazed as he pinched the bridge of his nose. “What didyou say?” “I said, what’s happening to Leanna is very weird. Have you gone to replace out what’s goingon?” “I did, but I didn’t replace much.” “Things aren’t as simple as they seem. Leanna is just a girl; shecouldn’t have offended anyone,” Daniel uttered slowly.
Once Elijah got over his initial shock, he finally understood what Daniel meant. “Are you saying that theperson these people are trying to threaten is actually Aidan?” “It’s just one of my guesses.” Danieltapped his fingers on the armrest of the couch and squinted his eyes. “The fact that Aidan canceled themarriage must have disgraced the Crossley Family to a certain extent. It’s not impossible for them to tryand use Leanna as their punching bag now.” “Do you think it’s possible that Lloyd did this?” “Thepossibility of that is high. I’ll test Georgina again in the next few days. We’ll see what she has to say.”After hearing that, Elijah kept quiet and lowered his head while lost in his thoughts. When Danielnoticed his strange expression, he could not help but ask, “What’s wrong with you today?” Elijah shookhis head. “Nothing. Maybe I just didn’t get a good sleep last night.” “I also heard that Georgina may beengaged to Justin.” “Justin, as in… Aidan’s brother?” Daniel hummed. “But it’s not confirmed yet. I stillcan’t figure out why Lloyd would put forward such a request at this time. Theoretically, we have notdone anything. Isn’t he reacting a little too hastily?” Elijah glanced at him and teased, “Perhaps hethinks you’re unreliable.” Speechless, Daniel rebuked in an affirmed tone, “I don’t think the problem lieswith me.” Elijah remained silent. “Something must have happened that scared him, or maybe he had asense of urgency. That’s why he proposed such a thing to the Pearson Family in order to stabilize thecurrent situation.”
As soon as Daniel finished talking, his phone rang. It was a call from Georgina. Then, he shook thephone before Elijah. “See? I’m not the problem.” “You should think about how to stop Georgina frommarrying into the Pearson Family. Although Aidan holds all the power in the Pearson Family now, oncethey get married, it might not be as easy for us to follow our plan,” Elijah stated. However, Danielseemed carefree as he laughed. “Don’t worry, Georgina prides herself very highly. There is no way thatshe’d marry Justin.”
