Chapter 487

In the middle of the night, just when Leanna almost fell into a deep slumber, she suddenly felt a dip in the bed behind her. Soon, she was wrapped in a warm embrace.

She kept her eyes closed, but her voice was laced with tiredness. “Did you just return?”

Aidan replied with a hum and gently patted her back with his big palms and murmured in his deep voice, “Go back to sleep.”

Leanna turned around and wrapped her arms around his waist out of habit. Shortly after, she fell back asleep.

In the dark, Aidan planted a long kiss on her forehead.

They had gotten ahold of Georgina now, but Leroy was nowhere to be found.

He was like a ticking bomb, unsure when it would explode.

At the moment, the Crossley Group was a mess. Many of their financial statements did not add up, and multiple managers ran or jumped ship because of that. As such, only the oblivious employees were left behind.

If no one stepped up, the great family that once stood over Highside for hundreds of years through the blood, sweat, and tears of their generational leaders would fall to its feet overnight, never to be seen ever again. Many of the company’s employees and their families would also suffer a major blow.

Everything happened because of Leroy. Due to his agenda, he caused harm to thousands of people.

He would not be able to repent for his wrongdoings even if he died.

The ringing of the alarm clock woke Leanna up the next day, but Aidan wasn’t by her side.

She got up with a yawn and got ready before walking out of the bedroom.

When she went down, Alice was already in the kitchen making breakfast. “You’re up, Madam. Breakfast is almost ready.”
