Chapter 24


    Chapter 24 Forgotten About Their Divorce Typically, Jonathan was able toe up with various


    reasons; it was usually either a standard gift from theirpany that everyone received or he imed


    that it was a gift from thepany they coborated with. Inside the Rolls-Royce, the atmosphere


    suddenly became eerily silent. Aidan opened his eyes and they were full of coldness. It had been more


    than a month, but he kept forgetting about their divorce. There were some habits that were deeply


    entrenched in him, so it was pretty much impossible to change within this timeframe. However, Leanna


    was the exact opposite as she was able to move on swiftly. Jonathan spoke, “President Pearson, Lux


    Jewelry is organizing a show next week. Since we have previously coborated with them, should we


    send them gifts to express our congrattions? We don’t have to send gifts to the entirepany. We


    can just focus on the editors, the photographers, and… perhaps their designer as well?” Aidan


    remained silent for several seconds before suddenly mentioning, “There are some artists from Pearson


    Group involved in the show, so we should actually send them gifts.” Finally, Jonathan heaved a sigh of


    relief and started preparing gifts for everyone else. As such, three dayster, the staff from the personal


    assistant office of Pearson Group arrived at Lux Jewelry and started to distribute gifts. Harvey was


    confused to receive the gift and he was momentarily stunned. What’s going on here? Why did Aidan


    suddenly turn into such a friendly guy? Some of the photographers that received the gifts were shocked


    as well. This is unexpected! Leanna, the only contracted designer of Lux Jewelry, was the only person


    who kept her cool and maintained aposed look upon seeing the present, which had gone through


    so many hurdles to arrive in her hands. The pantry was located next to Leanna’s desk and there were a


    few staff furiously gossiping about the matter at the moment. “Look! I was right indeed! Pearson Group


    has been giving ourpany preferential treatmenttely. It must be because they’re attempting to


    pave the way for Mia. President Pearson’s done so much just to win over a woman and his actions are


    one of a kind!” “It’s no wonder then… I recently heard that Mr. Mancini had the notion of changing the


    ambassador for the First Love series. Mia has found Pearson Group to back her and they’re a well-


    establishedpany, so it’s no wonder that Mia was able to defeat so many other impressive models


    and be selected for the show.” “I heard that President Pearson’s wife is quite pretty and her looks are


    reason why, then I can reveal it to you right now,” she mentioned briefly, “During the day that I won the


    award, I received news that my dad had owed one million to the loan sharks. I wanted to trade the


    opportunity to go to Aeras for cash, but my request was rejected. Subsequently, you must have also


    heard about everything else that happened from Anna.” Zayn maintained a deep furrowed look on his


    face and was shocked to hear the reason to be out of his expectation. “Why didn’t you tell me the truth


    directly? I could have helped…” Leanna interjected, “How could you have helped? By giving me money


    to pay off the debt? Zayn, we aren’t rted to each other, so how could I possibly get you to help me


    pay off the debt?” “Leanna, you should know how I feel about you. We were so close to getting


    together with each other. It wasn’t a huge sum, so you could have just asked me directly for it.” She


    smiled and shook her head. “I’m thankful that we didn’t end up getting together back then. At least we


    retained that pure rtionship we had. I didn’t want you to see the type of environment I grew up in. I


    didn’t want you to know that I had such a horrible father either. You’re right; perhaps you wouldn’t mind


    at all giving me money to pay off his debts once or twice, but if this went on over time, are you sure that


    you wouldn’t get frustrated?” “Am I actually that unreliable in your eyes?” “This isn’t a matter of


    reliability. Most of the time, I can’t even take this myself. I wanted to run off to somewhere where no


    one knows me, but then there are some things that I’ll never ever be able to get away from.” Zayn


    replied, “What about right now? I know that you’re divorced from Aidan. You could at least turn around


    and take a look. I’m honestly—” However, Leanna spoke in a soft voice, “You’ve seen where I just


    came out from, right?” At that point, he slowly clenched the hand he ced on the table and formed a


    fist. Of course, he saw that. However, he tried toe up with all sorts of excuses in his mind to


    convince himself. Perhaps she’s just there to keep her friendpany? Or she could be there just to


    visit someone? However, with the truth ced in front of him right now, there was no way he could


    continue to deny it. Zayn was slightly resigned. “Does Aidan know about this?” “I don’t n to let him


    know, so could you keep this a secret for me?” “Of course.” After Leanna left, Zayn walked out of the


    cafe and he was seen significantly dejected. He thought, If only I made a move back then to enter into


    a rtionship with Leanna before thepetition and didn’t insist on fulfilling the promise in Aeras,


    then things might have been different right now. She wouldn’t have married Aidan and we wouldn’t


    have let so much get past us. “Zayn, why did you leave toe here?” Carly Bat called out his


    name and reached out her hand to wave in front of him upon noticing his daze. “What’s going on in


    your mind?” Zayn came back to his senses, “Carly.” Meanwhile, his sister huffed, “Hey! You promised


    toe with me to the pregnancy checkup, but then you disappeared in a blink of an eye. If Georgina


    hadn’te along today, it would be so dangerous for me to walk about in such a heavily pregnant


    state. What if something happened to me?” Next to Carly was Georgina who helped her around before


    letting out a smile. “Carly, don’t say that. The doctor mentioned that the baby is growing well inside, so


    nothing will happen to you.” “See, Gina’s the best. It would be great if only you’d be willing to marry


    Zayn. It’s too bad that the two of you have never seen eye to eye since you were kids. Gosh. This kid


    here is getting older by the day, but he has never brought a girlfriend home with him. My parents are


    worried sick.” Georgina responded, “Carly, I heard that the prettydy from the Pearson Family seems


    to be pursuing Zayntely.”Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.
