A Lot to Take In
When Leanna and Charlotte arrived at the studio, Zoe was snapping new promotional images of the
products on the models. Due to online advertising, the traffic within the shop had doubled. Zoe had
already been hiring people, but they were all in charge of the online platform, so the workers in the
studio were already strained.
The busy girls saw Leanna and their eyes brightened.
Leanna walked to one side of the counter and told the queueing customers, “Come here.”
With Leanna’s help, the payment process became much quicker. Many people recognized her and
quietly talked about her, commenting that she looked prettier in real life than in her photos. After the
wave of customers had left, the shop became emptier and was no longer as busy as before.
One girl exclaimed, “Miss McKinney, you’re finally back!”
Leanna smiled. “It must have been tiring for you all.”
“Of course not. Miss Zoe gave us all a pay raise.”
As they talked, Zoe returned from next door and hugged Leanna after seeing her. “Nana, I’ve missed
you.”
Leanna smiled as she patted Zoe’s back. “I’ve only been gone for a month. Why are you acting like you
haven’t seen me in years?”
Zoe let go of Leanna, sighing while rubbing at her back. “It feels like a long time.”
Leanna saw this and asked, “Are you not feeling well?”
“No. It’s just that my waist hurts after standing for so long.” Zoe looked at Charlotte, who was looking
around curiously behind Leanna, and asked in a low voice, “Who’s that?”
Leanna answered, “It’s—it’s a younger friend of mine. She will be helping out in the studio for now.”
Leanna then called Charlotte over and asked another girl to take her around before entering the office
inside the studio with Zoe. After the door had closed, Zoe asked in confusion, “How did you meet this
friend of yours?”
Leanna rubbed her eyebrows. “It’s…a long story.”
Zoe looked intrigued at once. “Do elaborate.”
“She’s one of the Woodleys.”
Zoe was stunned, clearly not expecting the answer. “Then how…oh! I know. The girl is in Jamesdon.
Did Mr. Pearson bring her here just to be a hostage?”
“Not really.” Leanna briefly described everything that had happened recently at Jamesdon as well as
the connection between Aidan and the Woodley Family. After hearing that, Zoe was dumbfounded.
It took a while before Zoe eventually spoke. “It’s a lot to take in at once and I need some time to digest
it.”
Pausing momentarily, she asked, “So, Mr. Pearson’s mother had been by his father and unknowingly
became his mistress?”
Leanna nodded. “That’s what happened.”
Zoe began to complain. “F*ck. I thought Sienna Pearson was despicable enough. I didn’t think… They
truly are birds of a feather. Why are they all so disgusting? Aidan had to bear the shame of being an
illegitimate child.”
Leanna bowed her head, not knowing what to say for now.
Zoe went on, “Oh. Did you say that Justin Pearson’s car accident was related to the Woodleys?”
“Yes.”
“Then what does Aidan think about that? I remember him having a good relationship with Justin.”
Leanna took a deep breath and looked out of the window. “I-I don’t know.”
Aidan behaved somewhat unusually on the night he returned from the Woodley residence but then he
returned to normal after that, so she didn’t know what he was thinking. She did not mention it anymore
in case he became unhappy.
Zoe sighed and reassured her, “However, I think Aidan’s thinking process is different from everyone’s
sometimes. He may not have taken it to heart, so you don’t have to worry about it. It might get better
with time.”
The corners of Leanna’s mouth twitched. “I hope so.”
Zoe then tested the waters. “That girl really is Lachlan Woodley’s fiancée?”
Leanna answered, “Yes.”
Zoe snorted. “You mentioned that he’s very similar Why is she so fearful and trying to avoid this any
way she can?”
…
In the president’s office of Pearson Group, the heads of each department were reporting their monthly
work progress to Aidan. However, they noticed that he didn’t seem to be listening; he was merely
staring lightly out of the window without any emotion.
The heads of the departments panicked, assuming that he wasn’t satisfied with their reports, and
directed a pleading look at Jonathan.
Jonathan was burdened with the responsibility and felt pressured. He eventually spoke up, “Mr.
Pearson.”
Aidan came back to his senses. “Are you all done?”
The head currently giving his report answered, “N-no, Mr. Pearson, I—”
“Put down your things and leave. I’ll call you in if I need anything.”
The heads immediately put down their files and left like fleeing refugees.
After they were gone, Jonathan asked, “Mr. Pearson, is there anything wrong?”
Aidan randomly picked up a file and looked through it. “Have you found Oscar?”
It was Jonathan’s turn to panic. “N-no.”
Oscar might’ve known Aidan would look for him and so hid before then. Besides, no one was more
familiar with them than Oscar, so he would know their every move in advance. This made things much
more difficult.
Aidan closed the file and looked up, his gaze nonchalant. Jonathan said quickly, “I’ll request more
reinforcements.”
“There’s no need,” Aidan continued. “Is there any news from the people shadowing Justin?”
Jonathan exhaled in relief. “Mr. Justin has really been taking old Mr. Pearson to see doctors
everywhere after landing in Vinland. We have already dealt with several groups which were put in place
by Mrs. Pearson, but they are all from the Zielinski Family and not connected to Jamesdon.”
Aidan muttered lightly, “It’s just a distraction. Sienna died in such a flashy way and would never leave
behind useless trash for him.”
“If that’s the case, we will continue shadowing him. They may show up soon.”
“Ask them to fall back.”
Jonathan froze, thinking he had misheard. “Fall… back?”
Aidan made a noise of assent. “There’s no longer any need to shadow him.”
Jonathan did not ask any questions and swiftly agreed. “Okay.”
“Leroy Crossley hasn’t been found yet?”
“… No.”
Aidan pursed his lips slightly, tapped his fingers on the surface of the desk, and pondered. After some
time, he finally ordered, “Get someone to help them find him. Does this have to be delayed until New
Year’s?”
“I’ll arrange it now.”
“Wait,” Aidan said again. “Some people may be sent over from Jamesdon soon. Don’t let them make
any noise and deal with them in advance.”
“Yes, sir.”
