Chapter 386

Leanna stared straight at her as she spoke slowly and surely, “Without you clearing the path with your grand performance, I wouldn’t have had the chance to set the stage for mine.”

Georgina’s face twisted into a scowl before she calmed and sneered, “Don’t think for a second that you’ve won.”

“I think I speak for the both of us when I say that I’m only getting started. After all, we both know that you’ve done far worse,” Leanna answered indifferently. “Actually, I’ve always wanted to ask you something, Miss Crossley, but I feel like I’m asking the obvious and being a little extra. Still, why don’t you humor me just this once, hm?”

Georgina cocked her head indifferently, crossing her arms across her chest as though awaiting Leanna’s performance.

“You’re the one who told Anna about my pregnancy, aren’t you?” Leanna asked.

Georgina remained unflappable. “From how you worded it, you probably already assumed that it’s me. So no matter what I say, it will merely sound like excuses to you. But since you’ve mentioned this, there’s something I’m curious about. Is your pregnancy something to be ashamed of? It’s been so long, but you’re actually questioning me about it now.”

“There’s nothing to be ashamed of to be pregnant, of course. Unfortunately, some people have such dark and filthy hearts that they are afraid of seeing the light. Or should I say, terrified of being prosecuted?” Leanna ended the conversation right then and there and left without hesitation.

Georgina inhaled deeply as she eyed the closed door. Her expression was utterly frigid. When she returned to her own room, her cell phone started vibrating as an unknown number called her, but she hung up in frustration.

However, that unknown number called again after a few minutes.

She heard Queenie’s voice from the other end when she picked up. “Hello, Miss Crossley. It’s Queenie speaking.”

“What is it?”
