Chapter 530

Leanna was at Crossley Group. When Raymond told her of the thing that happened in Pearson Group,she stayed silent for a moment. Then, she told Raymond to leave her. In all honesty, she wasn'tsurprised about the results.

Freddie clicked his tongue and leaned on the couch. "Guess he's not as cold-blooded as everyoneclaims him to be."

So, they expected this as well. Leanna stayed silent for a moment before she asked, "Is he going to bein trouble? I mean, work is going to be a lot more hostile from now on."

"Nah. Back when he was handed the company, the old git had eyes and ears all over the place. Hewas kept under tight surveillance, but the guy still got rid of those pesky insects. If he could build up hisempire from zero and take control of the company, he could do anything. Besides, he's in a bettersituation than he used to."

She heaved a sigh when she heard that. I don't know what to say.

A while later, Freddie added, "But…"

"But what?" She looked at him.

He cocked his eyebrow as he continued, "It's nothing. Anyway, I've done my work for the day. I've gotto go to the firm now. Call me if you need anything."

Leanna nodded. "Okay."

Freddie made his way to Pearson Group. He made a beeline for Aidan's office, and Oscar was there aswell. "So, what are you guys talking about? Too late for regrets, don't you think?"

Oscar said, "Found out who John is. He's just a Dellshore local. No criminal records or anything.Nothing special. He hasn't been back home for ten years. I can't figure out how Old Mr. Pearsoncontacted him."

"Probably through Sienna," Aidan guessed.

Freddie piped in, "Who is Sienna's helper, anyway? Still have no idea?"

Oscar answered, "They've been hiding well. Sienna probably doesn't know who they are, either.Probably only helps them because they're in a partnership."

"What should we do now?"

They looked at Aidan, and he looked back at them. "Don't look at me. The plan remains unchanged."

Oscar said, "You won't go after Sienna, will you? He is Justin's mother, after all."

Aidan leaned on his couch and said in a nonchalant tone, "They're two different people."

"I wonder if Justin thinks that way."

A long silence ensued, and Aidan said, "It's different."

"How so?" asked Freddie.

"The company belongs to him. I don't mind giving him everything I have." Aidan then added coldly, "ButSienna's different. She almost killed Leanna."

Freddie said, "If Justin thinks that way, then all will be well. But if he doesn't, then we have a problem."

Oscar sighed. "Justin has had a harder life than all of us. He's a reasonable man, but no matter howreasonable he is, Sienna is still his mother. You can't expect him to give you a free pass just like that."

Justin was a kind soul, but he could be fearsome if provoked.

…

Since she promised to go shopping with Zoe, Leanna texted Aidan about it after she got off work. Shethen headed for the workshop. The BOD meeting just ended. He probably has something to do. Maybehe'd still be at work even after I'm done shopping. Halfway through, Daphne called. She just finishedher roadshow and was back in town.

"Cool. Zoe and I are going shopping. Want to come along?"

"Sure. Where are you at?"

Leanna hung up and sent her the address. However, when the ladies met, they kept sighing since each

of them had something on their minds.

They were in a coffee shop. Zoe bit her straw, complaining, "I can't believe it. It's a gathering, girls.Lighten up, alright? Besides, I bet none of your problems are worse than mine."

Daphne had no idea what had happened to Zoe. She looked at her friend, asking, "What happened?"

Zoe said calmly, "Nothing much. Had a one-night stand and got knocked up."

What in the world?! The shock on Daphne's face was unmistakable. "Who's the father?"

The corners of Zoe's lips twitched slightly. She was reluctant to answer.

I think I know who it is now. "It's Daniel, isn't it?" Daphne took a guess.

Zoe choked on her juice. She coughed a bit and stayed silent, but that was an answer in and of itself.

"So, what now?" asked Daphne.

"The doctor said it's not the time for the surgery yet. I was told to wait, but it won't be long now. A fewmore days, and it should be A-OK."

"Does Daniel know?"

"I told him. He said he'd consider the matter. I know what he was trying to say, though."

Daphne had nothing to say to that. She stayed silent for a few moments before she looked at Leanna,

who was spacing out. "What about her?" She nudged Zoe with her elbow. "What happened?"

"Oh, you just came back. You haven't gone to your company yet, huh?" whispered Zoe.

"I rarely go to the company unless it involves important contract matters."

"I expected as much. Things have changed a lot."

Zoe told her the gist of the matter, but what surprised Daphne the most was the existence of Justin."President Pearson has a brother?"

Zoe nodded. "I've seen him twice. It's a pity he's wheelchair-bound."

A long while later, Leanna finally snapped out of her reverie. "So, what were you two talking about?"

She wasn't listening at all. Daphne wanted to roll her eyes.

She missed all that even though we were holding the conversation right in front of her. Zoe let out asilent sigh.

Leanna didn't think it was too much of a problem that Justin was working at Pearson Group, nor washis ownership of forty percent of the company shares. However, after this event, she could see that thefeud between Aidan and the Pearsons was finally surfacing.

And now, the center of that feud was the company. She used to think Justin could stay out of thematter, but now, he was in the eye of the storm.

Sienna was her nemesis, but she owed Justin a lot, and Aidan shared a bond with him. Even thoughJustin was only dragged into this mess by force, he would still be affected, no matter what Aidan woulddo. And to make things worse, Sienna was his mother. Leanna could never let go of her hatred, nomatter what. Yet, the time for her to make a choice was inching closer. And when the moment came,none of them would come out unscathed.
