Chapter 207

William stood with his back to the car and said, “I’ll be taking my leave now. Thank you for today, President Pearson.”

Just as William was about to get into the car, Aidan piped up coolly, “What’s your motive for approaching Leanna, Mr. Morris?”

The question caught William by surprise. He was startled and took a moment to respond. “I don’t understand what you mean, President Pearson.”

Aidan’s expression was a little cold as he stood there with one hand in his pocket.

William chuckled. “I mean no harm to Miss McKinney. I’m just curious about her, and we seem to get along pretty well.”

“She’s old enough to be your daughter,” Aidan stated icily.

There was silence before Willam cleared his throat and clarified, “You must be mistaken, President Pearson. I didn’t mean it quite like that. However, you’re right. Miss McKinney is about the same age as my daughter, but—”

“You have a daughter, Mr. Morris?” Aidan asked.

William’s smile stiffened as he nodded.

Just then, William’s driver approached them. “Mr. Morris, we should be going now.”

William nodded to Aidan once more. “Goodbye, President Pearson.”

“Goodbye, Mr. Morris.”

Once William’s car drove off into the distance, Jonathan came forward. “President Pearson.”

“Have you gotten to the bottom of the matter yet?” Aidan asked.

“I checked with the nearby establishments. That woman started causing a scene yesterday. It sounds like it was over money.”

Aidan side-eyed Jonathan. “She wouldn’t have targeted Leanna without any reason. Dig deeper.”

“I will.”
