Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 338

Chapter 338

It suddenly occurred to Leanna that Lloyd had brought her here on purpose. He simply had two purposes in doing so: aside from wanting to take the opportunity to find out where her mother was actually buried, he also wanted to make her kneel before his wife at this very moment. If she refused to do so, he’d have an excuse to accuse her of being unfilial, which would no doubt give him an excuse that she had an ax to grind in moving into Crossley Residence. Never mind, the big picture has to be put above everything else. The more I want to find out more information, the more I can’t slip up and get kicked out of Crossley Residence by Lloyd at such a time. I’ll kneel as he says. It’s not a big deal, anyway; I’ve even called Jethro “Dad” so many times before.

She was just about to get down on her knees when a voice rang beside them. “Hi, Mr. Crossley and Miss McKinney.”

Lloyd and Leanna simultaneously turned to look at the speaker; both of them were surprised to see William here.

Also holding a bouquet of flowers in his hands, William smiled at them, asking, “Are both of you here to visit someone, too?”

Lloyd was obviously displeased at the man’s interruption, but he maintained his expression. “What about you, Mr. Morris?”

William replied, “I’m here to visit an old friend, but I didn’t expect to meet both of you in such a coincidence.” As he spoke, he darted a glance toward the tombstone in front of Leanna, his gaze falling upon the woman’s smiling face. “May I ask who she is?”

Lloyd withdrew his gaze. “She’s my late wife.”

“Oh, I see. Pardon me for asking.”

Lloyd replied with a wave of his hand, “Please go ahead with what you were doing, Mr. Morris.”

William nodded. After giving Leanna a nod, he proceeded to walk on.

He had barely walked a few steps when Lloyd’s subordinate, who’d been waiting outside the cemetery, hurried over and whispered something in Lloyd’s ear, causing the latter’s face to darken at once. Turning to look at Leanna, the latter opened his mouth, but his words suddenly took a different direction. “I’ve got something to deal with, so I gotta go. Why don’t you stay here and keep her company?” he said to Leanna before striding off. As he reached the cemetery’s entrance, he took a backward glance and ordered his subordinate, “Keep an eye on them.”
