Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161 No One Would Like to Go Against Someone Like This

As she said that, she smiled in disdain. “I don’t understand why he is wasting time on people like her.”

“Where should we go now, Miss Crossley?”

“Home.”

After half an hour, a black car slowly entered the Crossley Residence.

When she reached home, Llyod was sitting in the garden reading a newspaper. As soon as he heard the noise, he lifted his head and asked, “Where have you been, Gina?”

She answered, “I… went shopping with my friend. Is there anything wrong, Dad?”

After putting down the newspaper, he drank a sip of tea and said, “Nothing. But since your engagement with the Pearson Family has been called off, we have nothing to do with them anymore. So, don’t go to the Pearson Family Estate anymore.”

Hearing that, she paused for a moment before saying, “Dad…”

“I am aware that Aidan’s decision to break off the engagement has little to do with the Pearsons, but rumors are dangerous. I don’t want you to be the subject of rumors.”

“I get it, Dad. I won’t go to the Pearson Family Estate anymore.”

When Llyod heard her answer, he nodded satisfyingly. “You can go and do your things.”

At this moment, Georgina was pressing her lips together as though she wanted to say something, but in the end, she still didn’t say what she wanted to and went upstairs.

On the other hand, Llyod took up the newspaper again and started reading the financial news of the day.

Since Pearson Group announced the dissolution of the engagement two months ago, Crossley Group has put pressure on a number of cooperative firms and stalled in cooperation projects with them.

Previously, none of these companies would have dared to oppose the Pearson Group, but now that the Crossley Group is on their side and a lot of them are affiliated, they are more confident.

He believed that this would have an adverse effect on Aidan and cause harm to the Pearson Group. However, Aidan didn’t care about them at all and changed the partner company right away. The whole process was so fast and precise that they weren’t prepared for that at all, as though he had planned everything beforehand.

No one would like to go against someone like this.

Llyod snapped out of his thoughts and folded the newspaper. Just as he was ready to get up, he saw a missing person’s flier in the corner of the newspaper.

The moment he saw the photo published in the newspaper, there was disbelief written all over his face, as though his poker face mask had cracked.

…

“What? You published the photo in newspapers? But there are only a handful of people who read newspapers nowadays. Are you sure it’ll work?”

Looking at Zoe’s shocked expression, Louis answered calmly, “Let’s just try first.”

“So…” she lowered her voice. “Does your sister know about this?”

“I’ve told her and she didn’t object.”

Hearing that, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Luckily. I was afraid that she wouldn’t agree.”

Although Leanna seemed like she was easy to convince, she was actually quite stubborn. If she didn’t agree to something, no one could convince her no matter how hard they tried.

After she heaved a sigh of relief, she noticed that he was still looking depressed. So, she said, “Don’t worry, Louis. Of course, it’s best if we could find him, but it’s fine if we can’t. No matter what, Nana is still your sister.”

However, Louis said, “I still have something to do in school. I’ll head back first.”

Hearing that, Zoe stopped him. “I thought you’re on holiday. What is there for you to do? Also, are you not worried about leaving your three beautiful sisters on their own? What if we meet some bad guys when we’re eating?”

…

At the same time, in the Pearson Family Estate, when Anna heard the word ‘call off the engagement’, she jumped up at once and said hysterically, “No way! I don’t agree!”

Justin explained, “Anna, I’ve told you before that two people should be in love to get married. You’ve been engaged to Zayn for such a long time, but there’s no progress in your relationship at all. It’s meaningless to keep dragging on like this.

”

“It’s all Leanna’s fault. That shameless woman. If it wasn’t for her, Zayn has already…”

“Ask yourself. Even if Leanna is not in the picture, will Zayn fall for you with such a personality?” he said sternly, “People should know when to stop, Anna. Look for the reason in yourself, and not just simply blame others for your own mistake.”

This was the first time he said such harsh words to her. Instantly, her eyes were reddened in anger, and she turned to look at Sienna as though she was waiting for her rescue. “Aunt Sienna…”

However, Sienna didn’t say a word and kept her poker face on as usual.

Unexpectedly, Gordon was the one who said, “I think he is right. Zayn doesn’t like you. Even if you’re married to him and become a part of the Barnett Family, you won’t be happy either.”

“But that was not what you said previously, Uncle Gordon…”

“Before this, I thought that you’d change after you’re married since you were still young. But from what I see now, your personality just won’t change. We might as well call off the engagement now rather than let you stir the whole family into a tempest when you marry him.”

Of course, he didn’t suddenly become a sensible person. It was just because he has successfully hooked up with Llyod and has received the strongest financial assistance. So, the Barnett Family was useless to him now.
