Chapter 392

While Leanna was drying herself after shower, she noticed her phone buzzing on the bed. She lay on her stomach in bed to answer the call from Aidan.

Once the call got through, a man’s gruff voice could be heard. “Were you sleeping?”

“Nope,” she replied before pausing and continuing, “I can’t sleep.”

It was true; she did not feel sleepy, since so many things had happened today.

“Is it because you miss me too much?” he teased.

Leanna went speechless. Can’t he be serious for once?

“So, how’s the situation going on over there?” She veered into another topic.

He responded indifferently, “The board of directors meeting ended. Don’t worry. They can’t do anything to me.”

“But it’s caused such a huge ruckus. The Pearson Family—”

“It is their plan from the beginning. They made a big fuss over it.”

Hearing that, Leanna was stunned. “They did it? But I’m pretty sure Queenie taped it.”

Her response did not surprise Aidan as he reciprocated, “She’s quite smart for getting a scapegoat for herself.”

“You mean she did record it, but she used the Pearsons because she didn’t wanna offend you?”

Everyone was aware of the schemes and enmity between Gordon and Aidan, despite being a family. After Gordon’s numerous attempts went down into failures, he became especially resentful and wished to have something over Aidan’s head at all costs.
