The mon's deep voice sounded from the phone os he slowly replied, "In o meeting."

Thot onswer rendered her speechless.

Meonwhile, on the other end of the coll, the huge office wos so silent thot one could heor the sound of o needle folling to the ground.

All the higher-ups in the room did not even dore to breothe loudly ond were looking ot eoch other worily.

After the previous incident where Aidon used Peorson Group's officiol Twitter occount to orgue with other netizens, they thought the scene before them wos nothing in comporison to thot.

However, this wos the first time they sow Aidon oct this woy. If they remembered correctly, he wos never ofroid of his wife.

Following the end of the coll, Aidon put down his phone ond looked oround the room with cold eyes. "Where were we?"

Johnothon reminded him from the side, "The progress of lost yeor's project."

Pinching his nose, Aidon replied with o hum ond soid, "Continue."

The originolly deod silent ond cold office wos instontly filled with some wormth.

After the meeting ended, Johnothon followed behind Aidon ond whispered, "President Peorson, Doniel hos gone to Constellotion Tech. As for Williom… There's still no movement from his side."

Aidon ordered, "Lloyd's wotching him like o howk, so of course, he wouldn't do onything."

Heoring thot, Johnothon become confused. "If Mrs. Peorson reolly is… Wouldn't it be better if he gove up on the Crossley Group's project?"

"There's no turning bock ofter the orrow hos left the bow. They hove been plonning this for so long just becouse of this step. How could they give up thot eosily?"

"But if they insist on continuing the plon, it would very likely put Mrs. Peorson in donger."

Pousing for o moment, Aidon onswered, "Even so, it's olreody too lote to regret onything."

He understood whot Johnothon wos soying, but Williom hod olreody oppeored before Lloyd. If the project went on smoothly, Lloyd would only dispotch people to wotch him so thot he could test him ond ovoid ony mishops. However, if he suddenly gove up on this project, Lloyd would become suspicious, which could invertedly push Leonno into on even more dongerous position.

Sometimes, fote wos indeed so coincidentol. If they hod known obout these things eorlier, the outcome would hove been different.

After wolking o few steps, Aidon odded, "Is there ony orrongement for tonight?" After Leanna finished speaking, she asked, "Oh, right. What are you doing now?"

The man's deep voice sounded from the phone as he slowly replied, "In a meeting."

That answer rendered her speechless.

Meanwhile, on the other end of the call, the huge office was so silent that one could hear the sound of a needle falling to the ground.

All the higher-ups in the room did not even dare to breathe loudly and were looking at each other warily.

After the previous incident where Aidan used Pearson Group's official Twitter account to argue with other netizens, they thought the scene before them was nothing in comparison to that.

However, this was the first time they saw Aidan act this way. If they remembered correctly, he was never afraid of his wife.

Following the end of the call, Aidan put down his phone and looked around the room with cold eyes. "Where were we?"

Johnathan reminded him from the side, "The progress of last year's project."

Pinching his nose, Aidan replied with a hum and said, "Continue."

The originally dead silent and cold office was instantly filled with some warmth.

After the meeting ended, Johnathan followed behind Aidan and whispered, "President Pearson, Daniel has gone to Constellation Tech. As for William… There's still no movement from his side."

Aidan ordered, "Lloyd's watching him like a hawk, so of course, he wouldn't do anything."

Hearing that, Johnathan became confused. "If Mrs. Pearson really is… Wouldn't it be better if he gave up on the Crossley Group's project?"

"There's no turning back after the arrow has left the bow. They have been planning this for so long just because of this step. How could they give up that easily?"

"But if they insist on continuing the plan, it would very likely put Mrs. Pearson in danger."

Pausing for a moment, Aidan answered, "Even so, it's already too late to regret anything."

He understood what Johnathan was saying, but William had already appeared before Lloyd. If the project went on smoothly, Lloyd would only dispatch people to watch him so that he could test him and avoid any mishaps. However, if he suddenly gave up on this project, Lloyd would become suspicious, which could invertedly push Leanna into an even more dangerous position.

Sometimes, fate was indeed so coincidental. If they had known about these things earlier, the outcome would have been different.

After walking a few steps, Aidan added, "Is there any arrangement for tonight?"

Johanthan replied, "No."

Ever since Aidan and Leanna got together, he would cancel all dinner arrangements.

He then stated, "Leanna has something going on. I have to go over there tonight."

Nodding slightly, Johnathan said, "Alright. I'll make the necessary arrangements."

Aidan asked again, "Is there anything happening on Sienna's side?"

"She should be making a move soon."

Smiling, Aidan ridiculed, "About time. I was about to get worried."

…

At the studio.

Leanna had just finished packing up her things when someone knocked on her office door. A young woman stuck her head into the room and asked, "Leanna, are you done? We're almost ready to leave."

"Yes, I'm done. Let's go."

The venue for the birthday party was a small bar not far away. Many kinds of snacks were served there and all the wines were made from fruits. Also, most customers there were couples or friends looking for a place to chit-chat.

When Leanna sat down, the woman beside her asked softly, "Leanna, is… your brother coming?"

Smiling, Leanna replied, "He has something to do at school. Maybe next time."

The woman looked a little disappointed but could not do anything about it, so she responded, "Alright, then."

Whenever several women sat together, the topic of discussion would either be celebrities or gossip about their relationships. After they all finished talking, someone suddenly asked, "Leanna, what about you?"

As Leanna was a little absent-minded, she was not paying attention to what the others were talking about, so she was confused when she heard that question. "What?"

"How did you and your boyfriend get to know each other?"

Everyone was excited when talking about that.

If they did not know the cold and handsome man who frequented their studio was the President of Pearson Group earlier, it would have been hard for them not to know it after the series of news on Twitter that Carlile caused.

Another woman asked, "That's right, Leanna. President Pearson is your ex-husband, right? Are you guys back together?"

"President Pearson is so handsome! And he's rich and gentle. Aah! I'm so jealous."

No, wait. Gentle, who?

"Besides President Pearson, there's another handsome man who frequently comes to our studio. Leanna, is he another one of your pursuers?"

"Leanna is such a beautiful woman, of course, she would have many pursuers, but I think President Pearson suits her the most."

"I don't think so. If they had been a great match, they wouldn't have gotten divorced. That's why I say, we should have a few more romantic relationships in our lives. You can't put all your eggs into one basket."

"I don't agree with you on that. Are you saying President Pearson is a rotten egg? He's clearly the most attractive egg in the entire basket."

"By the way, Leanna, why did you and President Pearson get divorced?"

Oh, heavens. These young ladies were talking about all kinds of things. Now, they're gonna get to the bottom of how we met and why we divorced.

Not knowing how to answer them, she thought about it before answering, "Maybe because we have trust issues, but I think the most important thing is to meet the person you want to live the rest of your life with at the right time. Relationships are mutual; there's not always black and white in every situation."

If she and Aidan had not met each other at Patheon Club but in a different place, environment, and with different identities instead, perhaps things would have been different.

Perhaps, there would not be so many troublesome things to worry about.

At that moment, one of the women touched the elbow of the woman beside her. "Did you hear what Leanna said? I think you should stop complaining about your boyfriend. Relationships are mutual."

The woman pouted. "If my boyfriend is as handsome as President Pearson, not only would I understand him, I'd even slap myself whenever we have an argument."

Once she said that, everyone else burst into laughter.

Leanna picked up a bottle of beer, poured herself a cup, and could not help but laugh too.

These young ladies were mostly fresh graduates and only over twenty years old. Some of them were even still in their last year of university.

Those were few points when one could laugh purely and carefreely in life.

It was then the woman sitting beside Leanna asked, "Leanna, can I ask you something in secret?"

Nodding, Leanna replied, "Go ahead."

The woman whispered, "It's about… your brother. Does he have a girlfriend?"

Leanna said, "I don't think so." She paused for a bit and added seriously, "At least none that I know of."

Then, the young woman asked, "Do you know what type of woman he likes?"

That question rendered Leanna dumbfounded.

She had previously asked Louis the same question, but she never got a certain answer.
