Chapter 308 Leah Berry''s Provocation
When Hank received the news, he rushed to the hospital and told Spencer about this matter.
"Mr. Porter, shall we disclose the news that Rodney has been sent to jail?"
"Not necessary."
Hank looked at him in confusion.
Spencer exined. "Sophia did so to push us to disclose the news. Then she would follow the clue and
kick us out. We cannot fall into her trap."
Hank was enlightened. "I see. You are absolutely right."
"Keep quiet. Pretend this matter has nothing to do with us."
"OK, Mr. Porter."
Sophia had waited a long time but still didn''t receive any news. Narrowing her eyes, she realized
Spencer was more challenging to deal with than she had imagined.
Chloe remarked, "That old jerk is really cunning."
"Of course. He''s old and experienced."
"What shall we do then? They don''t make a move. Will you take action?"
"Of course not. We''re racing to see who''s more patient. I can wait."
Chloe waspetent and straightforward. Hence, many people from otherpanies were willing to
cooperate with her.
However, in terms of schemes and the psywar, Sophia would be better.
When they had lunch during the noon break, they encountered Leah.
Since her older brother would be promoted soon, Leah was always proud and arrogant.
Chloe wanted to ignore her, but Leah walked to her and warned her, "Chloe, although you are the
daughter of the Pinkerton Thomas family, you are just influential in the business circle. I''m different. If
Bailey marries me, he can get governmental projects. Besides, I''m a local in Send. I can help him
greatly."
"You should know you are a good choice for Bailey and you''d better leave him ASAP."
Chloe never actively provoked anyone. However, if she was bullied, she would definitely fight back.
"So what? Do you really think your older brother will be the next mayor? Even if he does, so
what? I didn''t see the Duncan family had the intention to unite with your family."
Her words poked Leah''s raw nerves, and Leah''s expression changed dramatically. In fact, she was
also confused about why the Duncan family had given up on her but epted Chloe.
"It''s because the Duncan family hasn''t understood the situation yet. After they do, you''ll be dumped for
sure."
Chloe chuckled like Sophia usually did. "Leah, you are the one who doesn''t know which way the wind
blows. In fact, the Duncan family does understand the situation, and that''s why they stopped Bailey
from meeting you."
Her words made sense. Besides, the picture that Zain gave as a gift wasn''t epted by the head of
senior officials. Leah couldn''t help wondering if her brother would be promoted.
However, she denied the guess, as her older brother was excellent. She believed Zain would seed
for sure.
"Chloe, it''s not the ending yet. No one can predict what will happen in the future. I hope you won''t cry

too hard after Bailey marries me in the future."
"All right. I''ll wait and see. Just a reminder. If Bailey has never thought of being with you, don''t let me
see you crying a river."
"You!"
Leah was irritated.
Raising her head, Chloe snapped, "What? Think I''m afraid of you?"
Leah turned away.
Chloeined angrily, "How arrogant she is! I wish to see Leah cry like a baby soon."
Sophia teased her, "Right. As you said, she''ll cry a river."
"Yup, she''ll drown in the river."
While they had lunch, Leah was sitting at a table nearby. She and her friends kept watching Chloe.
Chloe and Sophia enjoyed the meal without caring about them.
To fawn over Leah, one of Leah''s friends asked, "Leah, you dislike her so much. Shall we teach her a
lesson?"
Leah rolled her eyes and wanted to agree. She couldn''t do anything, but her friends could do
something on her behalf.
However, she heaved a sigh. "No, thanks. If Bailey knows it, he''ll be mad."
Her friends wouldn''t give up such an excellent opportunity to please her. Immediately, they guaranteed,
"No worries. We''ll do it for you. You will not be involved."
"No way! It''s all because of me..." Leah wanted to refuse but epted, behaving like a typical
hypocritical woman.
"It''s alright. As long as you are delighted. We also don''t like that bitch."
"No. Forget about it."
Leah knew her friends wanted to take this chance to fawn over her.
Though she said no, she implied that she wanted them to teach Chloe a lesson.
Her friends, of course, got her hint and insisted, "It''s alright. No worries. We won''t rat you out."
Leah didn''t stop them any longer. In her opinion, as long as she didn''t do anything, the matter wouldn''t
have anything to do with her.
When Chloe stood up and went to thedies'' room, Leah''s friends followed her.
Sophia noticed it and gazed at Leah.
Somehow, Leah felt guilty and looked away to dodge her gaze, pretending she had seen nothing.
Sophia snorted, "You are risking your neck."
Leah looked over at her immediately. "What are you talking about?"
"I said you had a death wish."
Leah gritted her teeth. "Think I cannot do anything to you as you are Drake''s girlfriend, huh?"
"Humph!" Sophia looked at her in scorn. "Without Drake, I can also easily teach you a lesson."
Her strong vibe upset Leah.
She thought she had seen many kinds of women, but this was the first time she had seen a woman
with such a strong aura.
Unable to win against Sophia, Leah looked away again.
In thedies'' room, after Chloe left the cubicle, several women surrounded her. They were like campus
bullies surrounding a victim in the restroom.
A passerby saw it and asked in a low voice, "Miss, do you need any help?"
However, noticing other women''s gazes, she was scared.
Chloe beamed at her kindly, feeling pleased to meet a friendly onlooker.
She replied, "No, thanks. They are just nothing. I can handle them."
All women surrounding her were from affluent families, so they were angered by Chloe''s words.
"Go to hell, Chloe!"
