I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 391

After Leanna arrived back at the Crossleys', she went straight into her room and disregarded the

brewing storm out there. She remained in her room without stepping a foot out at all.

Frankly, there would be much more people in an agonized state that night compared to her.

Leanna was just about to place down her phone and take a shower when she saw that Louis' personal

information had been revealed on the Internet.

With a frown, she dialed Freddie's number instantly.

Freddie was totally oblivious to this matter as he responded, "I didn't arrange this. It must be a

coincidence."

After Leanna hung up the phone, she considered the situation for a moment before dialing Louis'

phone number.

Soon, he answered the call and she asked in a soft voice, "Louis, are you back at school?"

Louis affirmed, "I got back in the afternoon."

"Have you seen the news on the Internet?"

"Yes, I did."

Leanna replied, "Ignore them. You just have to get through tonight and everything will be fine

tomorrow."

Louis replied, "I got it."

After a brief pause, he added, "How are things on your end?"

"Everything's fine. Everything is according to plan and there won't be any slip-ups."

At that moment, Leanna's phone went off and she took a look at the caller ID before saying, "I've got

another call to take, so I'll talk to you another time. Enjoy your classes."

The other person on the line was Zoe. As soon as Leanna answered the call, she heard Zoe's excited

voice ring out. "Nana, have you gone on Twitter? Georgina's ugly self has finally been revealed to the

public! Right now, everyone on the Internet is condemning her and I'm so pleased by that!"

"I've seen them." Leanna replied, "Why are you still up at this time of the night?"

"This matter is way too exciting, so how can I possibly fall asleep?! I'm honestly so…"

Before Zoe could finish her sentence, a male voice rang out from the side. "Could you express your

excitement tomorrow? I've got something to ask."

At that point, Zoe was rendered speechless.

Leanna was also dumbfounded on the other end of the line.

Suddenly, she felt that she must be dreaming. She grabbed her phone to check the time and confirmed

that it was midnight. The two of them are still together at this hour?!

Before Leanna could come back to her senses, Daniel had taken over the phone from Zoe and spoke

calmly, "Miss McKinney, can I ask you something?"

Leanna responded, "Sure."

"Were you the one who revealed Georgina to the public?"

"Yes."

Daniel continued to ask, "Did you, at any point, consider the consequences of your action? Lloyd won't

let you get away with this lightly."

Leanna replied, "I've considered this carefully. Even if I didn't do so, Lloyd wouldn't let me off the hook

anyway."

As soon as Daniel heard that, he was taken aback and could not come up with the words to say.

They had always made the effort to put distance between her and Lloyd to dampen the animosity

between them so that she would be in a safer position, yet unexpectedly, she had single-handedly

placed herself into this tough situation.

Leanna continued, "Besides, I'd be able to achieve what I'm after too. Ultimately, I benefited from this."

Daniel continued the conversation for a moment before Zoe grabbed the phone from him. "By the way,

I saw Louis appear on the trending topic. He's got his own trending topic too. Everyone is commenting

that he should enter the entertainment industry. What does Louis think about that? If he does join the

entertainment industry, then I want to be the president of his fan club!"

Previously, Daphne had also asked Leanna about this, but Leanna did not manage to find the chance

to ask Louis about it. Hence, she could only say, "I'm not too sure. I'll wait and see what he decides to

do."

"If Louis does join the entertainment industry, then it'd be awesome. He's not only a top scholar, but

he's so good-looking too. Boohoo. There will be a lot more others vying for his attention by then."

Meanwhile, Daniel stood dumbfounded by the side.

Leanna had also realized this issue. Nonetheless, she did not pursue the topic any further as to why

Zoe was still with Daniel at this time of the night. Leanna coughed slightly before saying, "It's late now,

so I need to take a shower. You… You should get some sleep."

"Sure thing! See you tomorrow."

Once Zoe put away her phone, Daniel got up subsequently. "I should make a move too."

Zoe glanced at the time. Only then had she realized that it was indeed late, so she nodded hastily.

"Yes. You should leave now."

Daniel was rendered speechless by that. Am I really not welcomed here?

As such, he left Zoe's place and entered his car. From the rearview mirror, he took a look at the familiar

black car behind him and could not help sneering coldly.

They haven't given up yet! Crossley Group has such a huge matter to deal with tonight. Aren't they

occupied with dealing that first?

Daniel sped off in his car and stepped hard on the accelerator as his car whizzed off in the darkness.

The person tailing him did not expect him to make such a move, so they quickly stepped on the

accelerator to keep up with him.

However, Daniel seemed to be intentionally leading them on a wild goose chase as he drove in circles

around the town center several times. Finally, he turned into a tiny alley and sped off without them

realizing it.

Driving toward a junction, he then alighted from the car and entered a black, ordinary-looking car that

was parked by the roadside. The person inside the black car then obtained Daniel's car keys and drove

off in Daniel's car.

As for the person tailing Daniel, as soon as they realized that he had shaken them loose, they quickly

sped toward the direction of Daniel's house instead.

Seeing that Daniel's car was already parked in the garage, they finally heaved a relieved sigh.

On the other hand, Daniel went off right away to see William.

As soon as the door was opened from the inside, Cameron came running out of the place. "Uncle

Daniel."

Daniel reached out to ruffle Cameron's hair. "Why are you still up at this time?"

Cameron shifted his head and continued to check out the news on his tablet.

Meanwhile, Daniel did not even have to hazard a guess to figure out what was on Cameron's mind. He

then removed the tablet from the little guy's hands. "Go to bed. Why are you looking at this?"

At that moment, William came out of the study room, which prompted Cameron to snatch the tablet

from Daniel and ran off into his room.

With a cold look in his gaze, William appeared to be upset as he said, "Have you contacted her?"

Daniel nodded. "She has her own plans and there is nothing I can say to change her mind."

William sat on the couch and massaged in between his eyes with a weary and defeated look on his

countenance.

Similarly, Daniel took a seat across from him. "Don't worry too much. At least we've got Mr. Jackson

around right now, so Lloyd wouldn't dare to go after her blatantly."

"He wouldn't do it blatantly, but what if he secretly goes after her?"

It was then Daniel recalled the episode that Jethro and Louis faced previously. By then, he stopped

speaking.

After some time, William mentioned, "Have they located Jethro?"

Daniel shook his head. "He must have been captured by Lloyd's men."

"Jethro would ultimately be a ticking time bomb in Lloyd's hands."

"His intention might only be to stabilize the situation. As long as we have Cameron with us, Lloyd would

have to consider every move carefully and he wouldn't dare to take any unnecessary action."

William leaned back against the couch and shut his eyes. "I hope so."

After a brief pause, Daniel stated probingly, "Actually, I reckon that under such circumstances, the best

way would be to tell Miss McKinney the truth. If she's aware of the truth, the next time she encounters a

similar situation, she wouldn't—"

William interjected calmly, "That's not necessary."

He had yet to figure out how to face her… as well as her younger brother.
