Chapter 22 You Seem to Have Forgotten Something Leanna was confused. “Regarding the divorce.” “No, thanks. That’s not necessary.” After saying so, she turned around and left without any hesitation. As soon as she walked out of the door, she sensed a hateful look shot at her from the corner, however, she disregarded that and strode off purposefully. After heading downstairs, Leanna asked Zoe for the contact number of the staff in charge of the advertisement today.
After receiving the information she needed, Leanna instantly sent over a copy of the recording. She was not a generally kind person, hence, she was not here to solely bicker with Mia out of boredom this time round; she was determined to settle every score with each person that crossed her path. … Half a month later, the First Love series was officially released and the response from the public was positive. Everyone continuously pestered them to release the other pieces in the series as soon as possible. After several meetings that Leanna had attended, she stated that she was able to maintain her past record of producing three pieces of jewelry each month.
However, Harvey wanted her to relax for the time being. After all, each product would have its own market value and it was fine to just produce new pieces continuously over time. As for this stage, there was a more pressing matter, which was the International Fashion Week held next month. Lux Jewelry was the organizer for the event this year and Leanna was the designer for Lux Jewelry. Hence, if everything went perfectly with this event, then there would be a high chance that her design would be showcased on an international platform.
This would mean that international recognition would garner for her design. However, if this was the case, then not only would Leanna be in charge of the design for the subsequent pieces in the First Love series, but she would also be in charge of all the jewelry designs in the show. That would inherently mean a significant increase in her workload. Fortunately, Harvey had assigned a personal assistant to her and she could just focus on coming up with new designs. Her personal assistant would deal with everything else related to the fashion show—from communicating with the costume models to the selection of gemstones. For the past few weeks, Zoe was slightly worried to see her working till the wee hours of the day. “Nana, don’t you feel exhausted from working so much? You’re currently pregnant too!” Leanna stroked her baby bump and smiled.
“This little one has been a good kid recently and hasn’t been fussing much, so I’m fine.” Zoe knew that Leanna had been forced to give up her dream of pursuing a career in design three years ago, which was why Leanna was exceptionally appreciative of this opportunity by giving her best foot forward. After a short while, Zoe mentioned again, “Other than focusing on work, you should consider things for yourself too. Zayn has contacted me several times lately. I reckon that he’s very close to appearing at the entrance of our magazine in order to get hold of me. Anyway, you’re already divorced from Aidan and Zayn’s quite persistent, so why don’t you…” Leanna shook her head.
“Things have ended between me and Zayn.” “Why don’t you reconsider him? Give him and yourself another chance.” “Zoe, I’m pregnant right now. Do you think that Zayn would accept being a stepfather?” At that point, Zoe was at a loss for words. She tried several times to say something, but she ended up remaining silent with a torn look. That b*stard Aidan is such a troublemaker even after their divorce! … Inside Patheon Club at the card tables, a person glanced in the direction of the man drinking silently by himself at a corner and whispered his question, “President Pearson seems to be in a foul mood lately. Each time he’s here, he would just be drinking by himself and not join our game at all. What happened?” Being the only person who knew the exact details of the scenario, Oscar replied, “What else could have happened? He’s gotten a divorce.”
