After crying to Dominic, Leah left the Walson family and immediately drove to a high-end nursing home. Alberto had not returned home since Selena kicked the three of them out and took over as the chairman of the Riddle family company.
Knowing that Alberto didn't like her, Leah hadn't come to bother him recently.
She parked her car downstairs and walked into the elevator with her bag.
The top floor was very quiet, with only one female caregiver and no one else.
The female caregiver turned her head when she heard the sound, and when she saw Leah, she was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of something flashed in her eyes.
Leah didn't notice the meaning on the other's face and walked past the female caregiver, raising her hand to knock on Alberto's door.
Inside, a casual woman's laughter came, "Come in."
Leah recognized it as Klara's voice and thought of Mrs. Riddle who was in jail. A black anger crossed her face, and she pushed open the door angrily.
With a loud bang, a huge commotion instantly alarmed the two people inside.
Klara was originally sitting on Alberto's lap, daydreaming as she watched the old man lovingly stroke her slightly bulging belly. When she heard a voice, she instinctively turned her head and was startled when she saw Leah. She subconsciously raised her hand to protect her belly, her face showing a thick guard.
But immediately, Klara relaxed again and smiled gently, "Mr. Riddle, Leah is here to see you..."
Alberto frowned and looked up at Leah, his tone full of indifference and disgust, "What are you here for?"
Leah glanced at Klara with disgust, knelt in front of Alberto, tightly grabbing his hand, and crying pitifully, "Dad, please save me..."
After all, she was the daughter who had been pampered since childhood. Alberto was moved by Leah's swollen face and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Leah looked at him and cried uncontrollably, "Dad, the Riddle family is in big trouble, we're going to lose everything soon. Can you transfer some of your shares to me first?"
Upon hearing this, Alberto became wary and immediately pushed her away before she could finish speaking. He shouted angrily, "Don't even think about it! Get out of here!"
Leah fell to the ground, gritted her teeth, and heard a cold laugh from Klara. She hated it and slowly got up, her eyes red as she looked at Alberto.
"Dad, the Riddle family really can't hold on anymore. If there's no new capital to circulate, the Riddle family might go bankrupt tomorrow. Can you really watch Lady Nevaeh's efforts fail in your hands?"
Leah originally thought that mentioning Lady Nevaeh would surely arouse Alberto's rebellious heart, but unexpectedly, his attitude remained cold and infuriating. "Anyway, the Riddle family is now a losing proposition. It's even better if it goes bankrupt!"
Leah was shocked and keenly sensed that something was wrong.
The last time, this man still cared about the Riddle family. Why did he suddenly give up his obsession with Lady Nevaeh?
Leah couldn't figure it out and had to put it aside for the time being. The trick of pretending to be sick wouldn't work, so she decided to confront her father directly and shouted angrily, "Dad, if the Riddle family is gone, I won't be able to marry into the Walson family. Can you bear to see me and your unborn grandson become unwanted bastards?"
Alberto snorted coldly and said indifferently, "That boy from the Walson family grew up with you and you have him firmly in your grasp. He won't ignore you."
Leah was furious and the sense of unease in her heart grew stronger.
