Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 470

At Pearson Group’s building, Aidan was immediately approached by Jonathan after he emerged from the meeting room. “President Pearson, something happened,” Jonathan reported.

Aidan came to a halt with a tense jaw. “Is it Leanna again?”

“Yes… and no.”

Expressionless, he reminded Jonathan, “Don’t leave me hanging.”

Jonathan hurriedly added, “Mrs. Pearson went back to Jethro’s place with Louis, and she found out that—”

Aidan clenched his jaw. “What? Is that a top secret too?”

Technically, there was nothing secretive about Jonathan’s discovery. However, in his thirty years serving Aidan, which he considered eventful, he had not come across anything like that. The more he thought about it, the more he felt terrorized.

He whispered, “They found her mother.”

“Where?”

“At… Jethro’s place.”

Aidan turned over with a hardened expression. “You sure?”

Jonathan nodded. “I got the news from them. I heard that Daniel was there too. This news is almost confirmed.”

Aidan’s eyes narrowed, and after a pause, he went in a different direction as he ordered coldly, “Delay my schedule for now. I’m heading out.”

Jonathan followed closely behind him. “Sure.” Next, he quickly took out his phone to settle Aidan’s schedule for the day.

When they were in the car, Aidan checked with him. “So, how’s the situation over there?”
