Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 227

or 227 M

The situation in the boardroom was becoming clearer to me. The room was divided into three 

factions. 

Leonard had built a strong base of support over the years, with many still backing him. 

Luca, on the other hand, wasn’t weak either–his supporters were the loudest, always vocal. 

Then there were those who just waited on the sidelines, indifferent to who led, as long as their pockets stayed full. 

But one odd thing stood out–no one mentioned Leonard’s injury or questioned whether he truly had amnesia. 

It didn’t matter to them. 

As long as the company functioned and profits flowed, Leonard’s mental state was irrelevant. 

I sat near the door with Caleb. Neither of us spoke. He glanced at me with concern, but I subtly shook my head, signaling him to stay quiet. 

There was no need for him to get caught up in this mess. Whoever spoke first would draw attention and potentially get burned. 

Finally, after heated arguments escalated, Leonard slammed his hand on the table. 

“Enough! Who I choose to be with is my business. It has nothing to do with this board!” 

His gaze landed on me, filled with bitterness. “Eva, this is all your fault! If you hadn’t clung to 

me from the start-” 

“Enough!” Mr. Harmon Senior pounded his cane on the floor. “Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough already?” 

Standing off to the side, Luca couldn’t help but chuckle under his breath. “Blaming her now? Weren’t you the one chasing after her back then? 

“You shut up, too!” Mr. Harmon Senior glared at him, and Luca immediately fell silent. 

I understood the old man’s intent. 

Leonard could be a playboy, and people might mock him for his romantic entanglements. But under no circumstances could he be perceived as crazy or suffering from amnesia. That would taint the company’s image irreparably. 

Mr. Harmon Senior wanted to see which grandson, Leonard or Luca, was more suited to take over the company. So, he wouldn’t let Leonard’s reputation take a fatal hit for the time being. 

Leonard took a deep breath, bowing slightly toward Mr. Harmon Senior. “Grandpa, I

apologize. My personal life has affected the company, and I will take responsibility.” 

One of Luca’s allies immediately jumped in. “And how exactly will you take responsibility? The company has already suffered over a billion in losses. Are you going to pay that out of your own pocket? And even if you do, what about the company’s reputation?” 

The room erupted again, with board members shouting about the damage to Harmon Group’s image and the potential long–term impacts on future projects. 

Leonard glanced at the man who had spoken, then turned his eyes toward me. “I’ll divorce Eva.

The entire boardroom fell silent.
