Chapter 416

Meanwhile, in Leanna’s room, after she got out of the shower, she lay down on her bed and soon fell asleep. On the other hand, the servant waited downstairs all night for her, but the servant didn’t see her descend the stairs.

Meanwhile, in Leanna’s room, after she got out of the shower, she lay down on her bed and soon fell asleep. On the other hand, the servant waited downstairs all night for her, but the servant didn’t see her descend the stairs.

The following morning, Leanna woke up later than usual. When she went downstairs, Georgina was having her breakfast. Leanna smiled upon seeing her and said, “Good morning, Miss Crossley.”

Georgina gave Leanna an icy stare while ignoring her greeting.

Then, the servant who had been standing by the side quickly retreated.

Leanna advanced two steps before retracing her steps. “By the way, when I returned home last night, I noticed Mr. Crossley’s study door was open. I think you should close it in case something goes missing.”

As she sipped her glass of milk, Georgina said indifferently, “Dad has traveled abroad and will not return for several days. Perhaps, he forgot to close the door before leaving.” After that, she gave her another glance. “The only other people here besides us are the servants. Do you believe anyone would attempt to steal from his room?”

Leanna kept her grin permanently affixed to her face. “You should know better.” With that, she turned around and left.

With a stony expression, Georgina slammed the glass of milk down on the table. As it turned out, Leanna was more intelligent than Georgina had anticipated. How could Leanna resist doing something she’d always wanted to do? Nonetheless, Georgina had other plans to force her to leave Crossley Residence.

Leanna had just stepped out of the house and was about to hail a cab when she spotted her Porsche parked on the shoulder of the road. Then, Aidan’s subordinate stepped out of the car and informed her, “Miss McKinney, President Pearson instructed me to have the car delivered to you.”

“Thanks.”

After getting inside the vehicle, Leanna turned around to cast a sidelong glance in the direction of the Crossley Residence, then averted her gaze and drove away.

Since Lloyd’s study room is always locked, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that it contains confidential and significant information. In addition to his cautious nature, it is inconceivable that he would forget something as substantial as locking the door. Moreover, he is still on a business trip and will be away for several days. I feel like Georgina has set a trap for me to walk into, but only the naive will fall for it.

Meanwhile, Leanna had completed several orders over the previous few days, which reduced her workload significantly and allowed her to relax. She pulled out her phone when she entered the studio and started mindlessly browsing through Violet’s Twitter feed.
