Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 457

Meanwhile, Leanna went to Constellation Tech after leaving the factory. She was driving Zoe’s car today because Aidan said her car had been sent for repairs after the rear-end accident. Before setting out, she had wanted to call the man and tell him about it to prevent him from getting jealous again for no apparent reason. However, fearing that he was in a meeting, she called Jonathan instead.

Just as she had expected, Aidan was indeed in a meeting. As a result, she sent him a text message saying that she was going to meet Elijah to discuss something important and would leave immediately after she was done. After that, she placed her cell phone aside and set out for her destination.

On the other hand, thanks to the uncovering of Leroy’s wrongdoings, there were tons of things that had to be dealt with at Constellation Tech. These things had been carried out in secret before, but now they could finally be brought into the open. Because of this, Elijah was so busy that he hadn’t had time to return home over the last few days. Luckily, Daniel was kind enough to stay here with him all this time despite his zero knowledge about doing business.

When Elijah was at last able to relax a little, he returned to his office, plonked himself down on the couch, and looked at the man across from him who was listening to music. “What on earth are you here for?”

Daniel’s expression was lazy. “I’m playing some soothing music for you, no? You’re so hard at work, after all,” he said before looking around. “Your office’s quite spacious. I’ll bring the piano here tomorrow and play it for you myself.”

Elijah was utterly speechless. He replied, “It’s not necessary.”

Daniel raised his eyebrows. Turning off the music, he got down to business, asking, “How are things going on your side?”

Elijah shook his head. “It’s a real mess. There are lots of problems within the company besides those we’ve found out about. Now that Leroy has run away, nobody’s taking over the Crossley Group, so it’s already in a state of chaos. Many things can neither be looked into nor be straightened out.”

“What about William?”
