Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 157

Gordon contemplated for a moment before turning to the butler. “Prepare a gift this instant. I’ll head to Crossley Residence and apologize first thing in the morning.”

Now that it had come to this, it was inevitable that the Corssleys and their family would fall foul of each other. However, Aidan was the one who caused this mess. If he used this chance to butter up to the Crossleys and win them over, the result might multiply.

Once Lloyd was willing to side with him, it would only be a matter of time before Pearson Group returned to him.

…

The following day, after a whole night of deliberation, Leanna still decided to quit Lux.

There had been many outside controversies between her and Lux Magazine in the first place anyway. Plus, it had been a long while since she returned to her post. She would only continue to affect Lux negatively if she stayed.

With that, she handed Harvey her resignation letter, to which he sighed like he had already foreseen it. However, he only said, “Lux will welcome you back with open arms anytime.”

Leanna nodded with a smile. “Thank you for all the care and help you’ve given me, Mr. Mancini.”

“Let’s be honest; what help have I provided you?” said Harvey. “Zoe also handed in her resignation letter last week. What are you girls planning to do next?”

“We might open our own studio, but it’s all still in talks,” Leanna answered.

“Alright, cool. I consider myself somewhat connected in the fashion world. Let me know if you girls do decide to start your own studio. I’ll introduce you girls to some clients.”

“Thank you, Mr. Mancini.”

As Leanna was about to leave, Harvey mentioned, “Queenie has been suspended, and Lux is dealing with it as we speak. We just have to wait for the results of the investigation. I promise I will still give you a justifiable answer even if you’ve decided to leave.”

“I don’t plan on pursuing this matter anymore,” said Leanna after a pause. “She had done so simply because she perceived me as an enemy. It’ll all be over once I leave Lux.”

“McK—”
