Chapter 63 Celebrating Him Coming Last Every Time? Rather than saying such a person is my ex-husband’s mother, those who are rubbernecking are more willing to believe that it’s a scene where the legal wife settles accounts with the mistress. Parting her lips, Leanna wanted to explain herself. However, she didn’t do so because she felt that all her explanations would end up in vain. Therefore, she allowed their imaginations to run wild.
I can’t even shut Aidan’s mouth up, let alone the mouths of these hundreds of people here. After leaving Lux, she headed to Pearson Group since she wanted to pass the envelope to Aidan. At this juncture, she didn’t want to care about the fuss in the Pearson Family. When Leanna arrived at Pearson Group, she discovered that the front desk seemed to have changed to a new group of staff members. After she had written her name on the registry, the front desk politely said, “I’m sorry. President Pearson gave us an order a few days ago, saying he won’t meet all Lux Magazine’s designers.” After hearing the front desk’s words, Leanna became silent as she was too dumbfounded to react for a moment. Feeling her effort to come here had all gone down the drain, she couldn’t help but criticize Aidan inwardly, This b*stard is becoming grouchy day by day. Seeing that there was nothing that she could do to see Aidan in person, Leanna pursed her lips and took out the envelope. “In that case, can you please help me pass this to him?” Unexpectedly, the front desk declined her request and said, “I’m sorry. We can’t accept gifts of any kind.” “This isn’t a gift. It’s—” “I’m very sorry, Ma’am.
These are the rules here, so I can’t help you too.” Hence, Leanna could only place the envelope back into her bag. “That’s fine. Sorry for the trouble.” Sigh. Guess I can only take this troublesome envelope back with me again. … In the meantime, Aidan was busy working in the president’s office of Pearson Group. Just as he was focusing on his work on hand, Jonathan came knocking on the door. After that, he came in and reported, “President Pearson, the birthday present we’ve prepared for the chairman’s wife is ready. Would you like to see it?” Without raising his head to look up, Aidan responded, “No need for that.”
“Understood.” After replying, Jonathan didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he stood in place and looked somewhat hesitating to speak. Glancing up slightly, Aidan asked, “Do you have anything else that you wish to report on?” “The security had caught a guy sneaking around on the second floor of the basement—” Jonathan didn’t get to continue when he sensed Aidan’s unfriendly stare. With an indifferent expression, Aidan looked at him without uttering a word. It was as if he wanted to reprimand Jonathan’s ability to come to him only to ask the way to deal with this trivial matter. Trying to get a grip of himself, Jonathan coughed and continued, “It’s Madam’s father.” Even though Aidan’s expression didn’t change after he heard that, there was a slight sense of chill in the words he spoke. “Don’t you know that I’m divorced?” In an instant, Jonathan felt his back break in a cold sweat. He had no idea what Aidan was trying to do. Thus, he quickly backtracked. “Yes—Miss McKinney’s father is clamoring to see you.” “What does her father have to do with me? Send that person directly to the police station if we catch someone who has a misdemeanor. Do you still need me to teach you such simple logic?”
“Yes, President Pearson. I’ll handle it at once.” After leaving the president’s office, Jonathan felt like he had taken a trip to hell and barely escaped death. I don’t know how Madam offended President Pearson this time, but he does seem to be furious. Meanwhile, Aidan, who was in the office, put down the pen in his hand and rubbed his temples. Not long after, his phone rang, after which he picked up, and Oscar’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “Care to join me for a drink?” “Where?” “Patheon Club.” … When Aidan arrived at the private room, he saw a group of people opening champagne and celebrating enthusiastically. Then, he took a seat on the couch and sat with his pair of long slender legs crossed. After that, he asked casually, “What’s going on?” Holding the wine glass, Oscar replied, “I’m not sure either. It seems like that good-for-nothing son of the Yenington Family is about to start college, and his father invited a lot of people to celebrate for him.”
