Chapter 168

Is This How You Treat Clients? Hints of coldness and anger appeared on Aidan’s face as he lifted his

gaze to look at Elijah. “Get lost.” Elijah glanced behind him, then looked back at Aidan and said slowly,

“I heard you calling Leanna’s name. Do you know her?” “It has nothing to do with you.” “It doesn’t look

like Leanna wants to see you, though. If that’s the case, why are you so aggressive?” Aidan sneered.

“Did she personally tell you that she doesn’t want to see me?” Elijah fell silent. It was true that she

didn’t say anything about it, but her reactions were clear as day. Even so, Elijah had no intentions of

backing off.

The stalemate was about to be broken when Aidan caught sight of a figure at the side. He said

indifferently, “Zoe.” The figure froze before it ran even faster. Aidan’s voice turned colder. “Gigi.” Zoe

was at a loss for words. She felt that this name would stick with her for life. Zoe didn’t dare run away

anymore, fearing that the lowlife named Aidan would settle the scores with her later. She laughed dryly

and went over reluctantly. “Haha, fancy seeing you here, President Pearson. I thought someone called

my name, but I never thought that it’d be the handsome President Pearson. Your brilliance is too

blinding, and I almost couldn’t see you.” Jonathan felt that Zoe was even better than him at buttering

Aidan up. After Elijah calmed down, he asked, “Zoe, do you know President Pearson?”

The woman was about to answer when she suddenly remembered her plans of match-making Leanna

and Elijah, so she couldn’t possibly let him know that Aidan was Leanna’s ex-husband. She seemed to

be tongue-tied, unable to say a word. Just then, Jonathan walked up at the appropriate time. “Miss

Hart, I was the one who contacted you earlier.” Zoe was stunned. “Earlier?” Jonathan said specifically,

“About half an hour ago.” Zoe was speechless. She was wondering how the lowlife had managed to

find this place, but she soon realized that he had tricked her.

This information flashed through Zoe’s thoughts for a few seconds, and she said to Elijah, “President

Pearson is a client of our studio, and he’s asked Nana to design a necklace… Elijah, you can go back

first since everyone’s waiting. I’ll discuss work with President Pearson for a bit before heading in.” After

hearing that, Elijah seemed assured as he nodded and turned to leave. When he was gone, Aidan said

impatiently, “Give her a call and tell her to come back.” Faced with the strong oppression of capitalism,

Zoe could only compromise as she dialed Leanna’s number in front of Aidan. She whispered, “Nana,

the client I told you about has arrived…

” Then, she laughed dryly. “Don’t you think it’s a coincidence that this client is President Pearson

himself… Huh? You aren’t feeling well, so you’re already home? Alright then, it’s indeed a pity. I believe

that President Pearson is a kind person, so he’ll understand…” Zoe hadn’t finished talking when her

phone was snatched away. Aidan said coldly, “You’d better appear before me in five minutes, or your

friend won’t be going back.” Leanna was speechless. Apart from threatening people, what else could

this lowlife do? After ending the call, Leanna could only slowly walk out of the corridor. When she

answered Zoe’s call, she didn’t manage to squeeze in a word as she listened to the woman’s rambling.

The situation was obvious; Aidan had come all the way from the studio to look for her. Zoe was telling

Leanna to escape as quickly as possible. At that thought, Leanna couldn’t help but frown. This lowlife

had been out of his mind recently. In the end, right before the five-minute mark, Leanna stood in front of

Aidan after four minutes and fifty-nine seconds had elapsed. She suppressed her temper as she said

calmly, “What do you mean by this, President Pearson?” Aidan was dissatisfied. “Is this how you treat

your clients?” Leanna didn’t say anything in return. Zoe suggested, “President Pearson, it must be

uncomfortable to stand here and talk. Why don’t we find a place to sit down?”

If Maya caught sight of this scene, she would probably put on a show. More importantly, Zoe’s main

objective right now was to match Leanna up with Elijah. She mustn’t allow this matter with Aidan to

mess up her plans. Aidan glanced at Jonathan, and the latter immediately went about making

arrangements. Two minutes later, the hotel manager emerged and led them to the VIP lounge. Along

the way, Zoe whispered, “Nana, we should accept every client that comes knocking. This lowlife

doesn’t lack money anyway, so feel free to charge him extra.” Leanna gradually calmed down. By the

looks of it, Aidan didn’t seem like he would be letting her go easily. As such, she couldn’t chase him out

for the moment.

Once they were at the lounge, Leanna turned on her phone to begin taking notes. “What are you

looking to design, President Pearson? A necklace? A bracelet? Earrings, perhaps? Or is it something

else—” Aidan said indifferently, “Whatever.” Leanna endured it as wrote the word ‘whatever’ on her

phone. She continued to ask, “What style do you have in mind, President Pearson?” “Whatever.” “Then

—” “Do as you please with everything.” Leanna put down her phone, her expression cold. “If you intend

to treat me as a pastime, you can do it another way. You don’t have to waste your time with me like

this.

” Aidan pursed his thin lips. “Sorry, ask the questions again.” Leanna was speechless. Ask the

questions again, my foot. Leanna said, “I don’t know what else you still want from me, President

Pearson. Do you think that it’s not enough for me to lose a child? Do you want me to lose my job as

well before you let me off the hook?” Aidan’s expression didn’t change as he ignored her words. “I don’t

have any design requests. Just design anything you like.” Leanna fell silent. He’s bonkers! Aidan got up

and said before leaving, “Leanna, the things I want from you are far from what you imagine. When

you’re willing to give them to me someday, you’ll know what they are.” When he opened the door, Zoe

and Jonathan, who were eavesdropping outside, took two steps backward. Zoe coughed. “President

Pearson, our studio’s personal design requests for jewelry are fully booked for a few months, so you

might have to wait for a little—” Aidan nodded, turning to leave without another word.

Jonathan immediately followed suit. After they left, Zoe went into the lounge to see Leanna zoned out

on the couch. She waved her hand in front of the latter and asked, “Nana, are you okay?” Leanna

gathered her thoughts and shook her head lightly. “It’s nothing. Let’s go.” Zoe had more or less heard

everything in Leanna’s conversation with Aidan.

She didn’t think it would be appropriate to say anything about it, so she immediately changed the

subject. “How was your conversation with Elijah?” Leanna was dumbfounded. “What do you mean?”

“Just… Do you have anything in common with him?” Leanna was silent before she suddenly said,

“There’s something off about you.”
