"What brings you here?" Adrian saw Aleigha sitting on the lounge chair outside his office.
His expression changed from amazement to joy.
"I was just passing by." Aleigha looked at him with a faint smile. The sunlight shone on her through the glass.
The smile on her face grew brighter.
"Let's go home. I'll make you something nice." Adrian said.
He wanted to take care of her all his life, doting on her like a princess who needed to do nothing.
She wouldn't have any worries.
On the way, Aleigha did not mention the servant thing. Instead, she talked to Adrian about the company.
When they got home, the servants seemed to be a bit shocked.
One looked as composed and respectful as ever, while the other looked nervous and uneasy.
They were both middle- aged women who had children.
The only difference was that one had family togetherness and the other was a single mother.
Aleigha did not think that was a reason. No matter why that woman did this, she would never forgive her.
Aleigha went back to her room to wash up. Adrian followed her upstairs.
Then, he noticed that the lock had been changed.
There was a flash of displeasure on his face. "Did you get someone to change it?"
"No. I just came back," Aleigha said with a look of innocence on her face.
She just pretended that she didn't know anything.
Adrian looked at her and didn't say anything else.
After washing up, Adrian went to the kitchen. Aleigha took the opportunity to rummage around her room.
Except for the two fake share transfers, she didn't leave anything important in the room.
She searched for them for a long time, only to find nothing. She guessed she knew what was going on.
She acted like nothing had happened and had dinner with Adrian. The next morning, she went out.
She stood at the end of the alley and waited. At nine o'clock every morning, the servant would go out for shopping.
At 9 o'clock, Paige went out, looked around, and walked in the opposite direction of the supermarket.
Aleigha followed her from a distance and saw her walking into a restaurant and sitting by the window.
She seemed a little nervous.
Aleigha pushed the door open and went in, sitting directly in front of Paige.
"Miss-Miss Gardner."
Seeing Aleigha, Paige stammered with fear.
"Paige, who are you waiting for?" Aleigha looked at her. Her eyes were a little cold and there was a smile on her lips.
Paige hurriedly looked away. Her whole body was trembling slightly, and she didn't know where to put her hands.
"Tell me. What do you have on Jodie, or did she offer you something?"
Aleigha's tone became serious, and her eyes turned deep.
Paige could feel a knot of fear in her throat. She had never seen Aleigha so serious.
"Miss Gardener, I don't know what you're saying."
She still wouldn't admit it?
"I heard your son was in the same university as me." Aleigha lowered her eyes, her lashes fluttered.
She didn't show any emotion when she said that.
"What are you going to do to my son?" Paige became more excited and suddenly stood up.
The glass of water on the table fell down and spilled boiling water all over her. However, she still looked at Aleigha as if she felt no pain.
