I'm Sorry My Love Novel

long legs. After hearing some footsteps, she quickly turned around and her eyes brightened as soon as

she saw him. “President Pearson, there you are!” He grunted coldly in response and asked, “Have you

waited long?”

“No, I haven’t. I’m quite touched that you would spare some time in your busy schedule to come over

and sign the divorce papers. I don’t mind waiting at all.” He noticed the sudden complete change in her

character that happened so naturally and became scornful. It’s such a waste of her talents to not

pursue a career in acting. They sat down in front of the divorce counter and Aidan shot a look at

Leanna, who had swiftly signed her name on the papers without any hesitation. At that moment, he

tightened his grip on the pen and suddenly voiced out, “Leanna, I’m going to give you one last chance.

Is the pregnancy true?” She paused in her movement and lifted her head to look at him with a smile. “I

thought that you saw the pregnancy test report I showed you?” Under the sun, her bright smile felt quite

glaring. For a moment there, Aidan could not seem to tell the extent of the sincerity of her smile.

His voice gradually turned cold. “Three years ago, you showed me the same thing too and I trusted you

back then.” Suddenly, there was a slight change in Leanna’s expression. The smile on her face waned

slightly and she did not even bother to rebuke his words. Instead, she merely said, “You’ve

remembered to use protection every single time.” That was exactly the reason why he was unable to

tolerate her repeated lies and exploitations. If she had suddenly changed her words and admitted that

she had lied to him about being pregnant, then he would easily find it within himself to forgive her once

more. However, she was totally unrepentant and repeated the same mistake again. He retracted his

gaze and scrawled his name with a flourish on the bottom of the page. After Leanna walked out of the

Civil Bureau Affairs, she carefully stored the divorce papers before interlacing her fingers together. With

a smile, she mentioned, “Aidan, happy divorce day.” Aidan merely glanced at her expressionlessly. She

piped up again, “President Pearson, in order to show that we went through an amicable divorce,

shouldn’t you wish me a happy divorce as well right now?”

“You can enjoy it all by yourself then.” After he had said that, he strode off immediately and bent down

to enter the Rolls-Royce parked in front. She raised her eyebrows and took out the divorce papers from

her bag before voicing out solemnly, “Leanna, I wish you a happy divorce.” Regardless of how badly

Aidan misunderstood her and reckoned that she had plotted to gain this divorce, right now, she had

finally completed the final process. Overtime, it would be proven that she simply wanted a divorce; that

was all. … In the afternoon, Leanna arrived at Lux Magazine. She had turned up this time to discuss

with Harvey the subsequent products to be released in the ‘First Love’ series.

The first three items released in this series were big hits. Lux had intended to make full use of the

popularity from this series and come up with subsequent designs. Halfway through their meeting, one

of their staff suddenly walked in and spoke softly in Harvey’s ears. His expression changed slightly

before he got up to tell Leanna, “There’s been an urgent situation, so I’ll have to go out for a moment.”

Leanna nodded. “Sure.” Harvey had just walked off and Leanna suddenly sensed a commotion outside

the meeting room. The people out there had different expressions on their faces and some of them

even glanced in her direction as they discussed amongst themselves. She could clearly sense their

mocking and speculative looks through the glass walls. Because of that, she immediately sent a text

message to Zoe to ask what was going on. Even after waiting for more than ten minutes, she did not

get a response from Zoe at all.

At that point, Leanna had a niggling sense that something major must have occurred. Half an hour ago,

the number of preorders for the jewelry pieces in the ‘First Love’ series, which had been increasing

steadily, suddenly halted. Subsequently, there was a sharp decline in the pre-orders. Furthermore,

there were a huge number of people who requested a refund. In order to ensure their production

numbers to be maintained, Lux Jewelry had contacted several sub-contractors to operate all of their

factories at the same time; the subcontracted factories had also started working overnight to come up

with the final product after the press conference yesterday.

If the influx in requests for refunds persisted at this stage, it would definitely be a huge financial loss to

Lux Jewelry. The main reason for this to be happening came from a post that appeared on the Internet

one hour ago. This was different from everyone’s selfish guesses last night and the post had listed out

a detailed description of the timing and occurrences of it. As such, the credibility of this post was well-

proven. The post pointed out that the reason for the sudden disappearance of the newly-appointed

designer for Lux Jewelry, McK, three years ago was because— ‘After she won the competition, she

swiftly became entangled with a wealthy man. After she realized that the man was married, she didn’t

give up but schemed hard and ended up getting pregnant instead. Subsequently, she turned up at the

person’s house with a child in her womb and forced him to marry her. The wife of the wealthy man

couldn’t stand the humiliation, so she divorced the man.

That’s why McK succeeded in marrying him.’ ‘But then, not long after climbing up the social ladder, she

somehow lost the child she was carrying out of the blue. The man sensed that he had been tricked, so

he gave her the cold shoulder from then on and refused to acknowledge her presence. He started to

seek the company of other women outside. The reason for her appearance this time is because the

wealthy man has completely lost interest in her, therefore, he told her to pack her belongings and

leave.’ At the end of the post, there was another statement issued stating that after Lux Jewelry

officially appointed her and signed the employment contract with her, the first series that they came up

with was a grave insult to the term ‘first love’. In the post, it was stated that McK was a corrupted

person lacking morality. She was a homewrecker for going after a married man, so she did not have

the right to mention anything about first love nor did she have the right to be a jewelry designer.

Although Leanna was not part of the entertainment industry, Lux Jewelry remained widely known in the

country for being a top magazine.

They had collaborated with plenty of top celebrities in the country, hence the magazine was practically

a part of the entertainment business. Furthermore, they were currently in this informational age where

even the most mundane topic could end up being viral. There were always plenty of nosy people widely

interested in the affairs of others. ‘I used to love the First Love series and I bought all three designs in

their initial release. I can’t believe that their designer is such a horrible person. I’m so disgusted by that!

Luckily, I applied for a refund almost instantly after the news broke.’
