Chapter 155 Let’s Date a Playboy

Louis shot that idea down with a stern expression. “She can’t be eating such greasy food when she just

got out of the hospital.”

He exposed their lies without even so much as a blink.

“……”

Leanna and Zoe were dumbfounded.

Zoe turned around and whispered, “Your younger brother was probably a spy in his previous life. It’s

impossible to keep anything from him.”

“I think so too.” Leanna nodded in agreement.

Louis ignored them and marched out of the elevator when the doors opened.

It was not that he was angry that they kept this from him. He knew that Leanna was worried that he

might go looking for Aidan. That would not be wise of him, considering that he was powerless to do

anything right now.

Still, he hated the fact that he was kept out of the loop when something this major occurred.

Even now, he was afraid of asking Leanna about the baby she was carrying, and the baby’s

whereabouts now.

Zoe relied on ordering takeout most of the time, so the apartment was not stocked with any type of

fresh ingredients. Louis took one look at the fridge and headed out the door.

When the door closed behind him, Zoe sighed in relief. It felt like she could finally breathe again. “Louis

has got a temper just like yours. It’s so scary.”

All Leanna thought of was, Huh?

She was a pretty gentle person, if she did say so herself.

After a while, Zoe asked out of curiosity, “He looked pretty fierce when he stormed off. Do you think

he’s going to go after Aidan for revenge?”

“No,” Leanna replied.

She understood Louis. He was not the kind of person who would behave so recklessly.

Zoe patted her chest and said, “Thank goodness.”

Soon enough, Louis came back with two humongous bags of fruits and vegetables and headed straight

for the kitchen.

Zoe cut up an orange and passed half to Leanna as she lamented wistfully, “It’s so great to have a

younger brother. I want a handsome and caring brother too. In my next life, give me a brother instead

of a husband. Do you know if Louis prefers a woman who’s older or younger than him? Do you think I

have… Mmph!”

Leanna stuffed a slice of orange into her mouth and snorted. “Cut that out. You’ve known Louis since

he was a little boy. How can you even joke about that?”

After swallowing the orange, Zoe piped up, “I won’t act on it, but it doesn’t mean I can’t think about it.”

Leanna was speechless.

A short while later, Zoe asked, “By the way, I sold off that house of mine, and I don’t plan on buying

another one anytime soon. I feel like starting a company and setting up a studio. Why don’t we do it

together?”

“Me?” Leanna was taken aback.

“Yeah, you. We can run a studio together. You’ll be in charge of jewelry design and I’ll be in charge of

marketing and photography. If we manage to get a VIP customer, we can even offer a free photoshoot.

It’ll be perfect.”

Leanna mulled it over for quite some time before saying, “Let me think it over.”

“Sure. Take all the time you need.”

Zoe could deduce the reason for Leanna’s hesitation. It probably had to do with Lux Magazine, as the

company was the one who gave her the platform and the opportunity to resume her career. Time

continued flying by, and by the time Louis was done preparing a pot of minestrone, the smell had

wafted all over the living room. Zoe walked over with a bag of chips in hand. She stood at the kitchen

door and exclaimed, “Louis, when you get a girlfriend in the future, remember to come home and visit

your sister and me.” Louis was rendered speechless. During dinner, Louis forbade Leanna to touch

even a single drop of alcohol, so Zoe drank Leanna’s share. They were halfway through their meal

when Zoe planted one foot on the chair and hollered about how unreliable men were.

Leanna rubbed her temples and chuckled before turning to Louis. “You can head back now. I’ll take

care of everything else.”

Louis glanced at Zoe, who was singing into her fork, and asked, “Are you sure you can handle it?”

“Yeah, I’ll be fine. It’s not the first time she’s gotten this drunk,” Leanna said. “If you don’t head back to

your dorm now, you might miss curfew.”

Louis checked his watch and confirmed that Leanna was right. “I’ll come and see you this weekend.

Remember to rest as much as you can.”

“I will. Be careful on your way back.”

Once Louis left, Leanna helped Zoe over to the bed and tucked her in before she started clearing the

table.

After putting everything away, Leanna began unpacking her suitcase.

When she got the baby clothes, she stared at them in a daze.

The sound of Zoe retching startled Leanna out of her reverie. She went over to the bathroom and

patted Zoe on the back. “I told you not to drink so much.” Zoe continued to hug the toilet bowl as she

took several deep breaths before she turned around. “Couldn’t help it since I was in such a good

mood.” She fought to keep her eyes open as she waved her hand in the air. “Nana, I’m telling you. You

should have a fresh start. We both should have a fresh start. I’ll forget all about Anthony, that b*stard,

and you should forget all about Aidan. He’s a b*stard too! From now on, we should enjoy ourselves,

find a playboy or two, and date as many men as we want! They won’t be able to say we’re heartless

since they do it too!” Leanna was floored. She never knew that Zoe had such wit in her drunken stupor.

“Enough about that. You should go back to bed now.”

Zoe hugged Leanna and began to cry all of a sudden. “I mean it, Nana. You should find a man and

start dating again. The b*stard is not worth your time and heartache. You and Zayn made such a good

couple. I was banking on the fact that you guys would end up together, but who knew that things would

turn out this way? What a terrible ending!”

Leanna was both amused and exasperated, but all she could do was pat Zoe on the back and promise,

“Alright, alright. I’ll take your advice. I’ll go out and find a man tomorrow.”

“It’s a promise! You’re not allowed to back out of it,” Zoe declared with a teary expression. “The best

way to get over a relationship is to start a new one. I should move on too!”

It was late at night when Leanna finally managed to drag Zoe back to bed.

As Leanna sat by the bed, she thought to herself, Zoe’s right. It’s always good to have a fresh start.

There’s no point in dwelling on the past.

In any case, it was hardly a surprise that things turned out this way.

She was simply being delusional by hoping for a miracle that was not hers to receive.

Leanna sighed and slapped her cheeks gently to gain some color on them.

Since she weathered the storm and came out alive, she should look the part, at least.

…

Meanwhile, at Weavside.

When the meeting ended, Jonathan came over with a phone in hand. “It’s a call from Miss Crossley,

President Pearson.”

“It’s the twenty-third call today,” he added in a low voice.

Aidan pinched his nose before taking the phone from Jonathan impassively.

Once the call connected, he heard Georgina asking at once, “Where are you, Aidan?”

“Do I need to report my whereabouts to you?”

Georgina was struck dumb by his retort. She remained silent for a while before saying, “I just wanted to

tell you that it’s only a week before our wedding. Your father and other family members couldn’t get in

touch with you, so they asked me—”

“Let’s call the wedding off,” Aidan cut her off indifferently.

“Why?”
