Before the dishes could be served at dinner, Zoe was a little tipsy and asked in a daze, "How long until
Louis starts school?"
"Next week."
"Ah..." Zoe gave a hiccup. "I didn't expect you to enter high school so quickly; the first time I saw you,
you were this height, not even my shoulders; in the blink of an eye, you'll be old enough to call me
Mom."
Louis was speechless.
Leanna scratched her head. This drunkenness is a bit ridiculous.
Zoe was now drunk because she eventually started singing and dancing.
He found himself asking, "Is she really okay?"
"Just let her vent."
Zoe always had a carefree demeanour whereby she did not take anything to heart. If she encountered
something unpleasant, her disposition would be restored the following day after consuming alcohol.
The fact that she was currently acting like this demonstrated that the pain she experienced this time
was far more severe.
After she was drunk and passed out on the table, Leanna helped Zoe up to her feet and said softly,
"Zoe, we're going home."
Zoe stared at her with tears in her eyes and exclaimed, "Oh, I don't have a home anymore since that
scumbag cheated on me... Nana, I don't have a home anymore."
Leanna comforted her by hugging her.
After Zoe cried to the point where she was close to being unconscious, Leanna and Louis sent her
back.
Once they placed her on the bed, he asked, "Do you girls always look like this during a breakup?"
Leanna answered, "Yes, you always need to vent."
"Then, why didn't you cry?"
She froze. "Huh?"
Louis looked at her. "Don't keep holding it like this; it's not good for the baby in your belly."
"I'm alright, Louis."
"I can tell that you have something on your mind. Did Aidan bother you again recently?"
Leanna gently shook her head and laughed. "What kind of trouble could he have looking for me?"
She was only... After all, Anthony's remarks continued to linger in her heart. Indeed, what he said was
correct. A marriage that cannot be disclosed to others is fundamentally equivalent to having a mistress
who cannot reveal her identity. The only distinction is that the other mistress has money to take whilst
she merely suffers all day. Being pregnant is so annoying because it makes one emotional.
Leanna said, "It's late, Louis. You should go home. I can take care of her myself."
Louis wanted to say something, but Zoe woke up and hurled in the bathroom.
He sighed. "I'll be going now, but call me if you need anything."
Leanna spent the night with Zoe and Anthony returned once, but he couldn't get in since Zoe had
changed the passcode. As a result, he had to knock on the door, to which Zoe wanted to dash out with
a kitchen knife, but Leanna stopped her.
After Zoe finally fell asleep at around midnight, Leanna began to react to her pregnancy whereby she
threw up many times. Such a reaction was making things intolerable for her. She sat on the couch for a
while and after some time, she thought of the culprit.
Then, she grabbed Zoe's house phone and dialled a number.
The call was answered after several rings and Leanna preemptively asked, "President Pearson, are
you awake?"
A man's deep, husky voice could be heard over the phone: "Hm?"
"Let me tell you a joke. Once upon a time, there was a toothpick walking down the road. He walked and
walked and saw a hedgehog. Then, he—"
"Leanna." In a raspy voice, the man interrupted her, "You can't sleep?"
"Thank you for exposing the scumbag's true face. My friend had too much to drink and threw up all
night long. I have to accompany her."
Aidan stayed silent. Just when she thought Leanna was going to hang up the phone, he said softly,
"Aren't you going to tell your jokes?"
She had already forgotten what her joke was after he interrupted her. Then, she inquired, "Do you have
any jokes you want to tell, President Pearson?"
"No."
"What about a bedtime story?" Come on. At least tell one to your son and make him sleep.
"No." It was the same answer.
Leanna could hear that he was almost awake. Goal completed.
Then, she yawned. "Forget it. I'm tired. Good night, President Pearson." She hung up before he could
say anything.
She even avoided returning the receiver to the cradle just to keep him from calling back, after which
she slept peacefully on the couch.
The following morning, when Leanna awoke, Zoe was still asleep. She made the hangover cure and
poured it in a thermos. Then, she left a message for Zoe and made breakfast before going to Lux
Magazine.
As soon as she helped Zoe file for absence leave, she heard colleagues discussing that President
Pearson of Pearson Group had arrived.
Was this miserable man so petty to this degree? Didn't she call him in the middle of the night yesterday
to wake him up? He didn't even care about his company and came here first thing in the morning to
severely chastise her!
Just as Leanna tried to sneak away, Harvey's assistant came up to her and said, "Miss McK, Mr.
Mancini asked you to go to the conference room."
Leanna pressed her temples because she felt that she was compelled to pay for his own stubbornness.
In the conference room, Aidan took a seat in the chair in stoicness without any sign of emotion.
Harvey sat there and realized for the first time that it would be arduous for him to back down from the
scenario. It would have been alright if he was unaware of Leanna's relationship with President
Pearson, but he was aware of the connection. As a result, this was the conflict that the couple had to
deal with. If President Pearson obtained the position in an elegant manner, McK would still be hesitant
to accept it, which gave rise to a problematic overall situation.
He had a feeling that this conference room would soon turn into a battlefield.
Soon after, there was a knock on the conference room door.
Leanna pushed the door open and deliberately disregarded the other person inside. "Mr. Mancini, are
you looking for me?"
Harvey coughed and then introduced in a respectful manner, "This is President Pearson of the Pearson
Group."
Leanna looked at him. "Hello, President Pearson."
Aidan gave her a glance but said nothing.
This miserable man is very good at drawing attention to himself.
"It's like this, McK. In the previous show, Pearson Group provided Lux Magazine with a spot where he
could provide support. President Pearson is here about this matter."
Leanna stayed silent for a few moments, then she said, "Thanks for the offer, President Pearson. I think
my performance was mediocre at best. You should give that chance to someone with more potential."
Aidan retorted coolly, "If you know your skills are mediocre, then that's all the more reason to improve
yourself."
She thought, Who in the heck said my skills are average?
He continued, "Nobody's good enough to get this slot except Daphne. Including you. I don't want to
give this slot to mediocre designers, but I have a promise to fulfill, get it?"
