Chapter 773 I Don’t Want To Ask Him for Help

The next morning, the rain had stopped. But since it had been raining all day and night, they couldn't

use the set anymore.

So, they had to postpone the shoot and redecorate the set.

When Leanna arrived at the studio, she realized Aidan had sneakily placed the cream in her bag

without her knowing.

She took it out and unscrewed the cap before taking a sniff and placing it by the window.

The scent of the flowers after the rain with the refreshing scent of the cream calmed her down and she

had a wonderful morning.

In the afternoon, Zoe entered and told her, "Nana, I've edited a few photos and sent them to you. Pick

one and we'll post the outline as a teaser."

Leanna placed her pencil down. "Okay. I'll take a look now."

As she was looking through them, Zoe asked, "Nana, what's this smell? It smells amazing."

Leanna looked at the cream beside her and smiled. "Mosquito repellent."

"Mosquito repellent?" Zoe looked around. "Are there mosquitos here?"

"Bugs fly in through the window sometimes. It's fine."

Zoe released a relieved sigh. "That's good. I had been thinking about this problem earlier, but I'd never

noticed that there were mosquitoes in the office. Oops."

Leanna then said, "There are quite a lot of bugs outside, but the screen window is also closed. If it's

open, I'll probably be carried away by now."

Eventually, she selected a photo and added, "This one."

Daphne's face could be seen clearly while Louis only had a side profile. It was perfect.

Then, Zoe got up and said, "Okay. I'll work on it."

"Zoe," Leanna called out to her.

She turned her head around. "What's up?"

Then, after a short pause, Leanna inquired, "Are the pictures from yesterday processed?"

"Some of them. They're in my office. Shall I bring them over to you later?"

Leanna declined her offer and answered, "It's alright. I'll come with you."

Then, she grabbed something from her bag before leaving with Zoe.

There were many photos hung up on Zoe's office wall, some of which were taken yesterday.

Leanna took down a photo of Louis and stared at it silently.

Zoe approached her and asked, "Nana, what's on your mind?"

She looked up and hummed an instinctive response.

Zoe probed further, "You've been acting weird since yesterday. Is there a problem with Louis' photo?"

Leanna shook her head. "It's not the photo."

"Then…"

"I suddenly realized that Louis… looks a lot like my father when he was younger."

Zoe was stunned and exclaimed, "Really?"

Leanna pursed her lips lightly and took out the photo in her hand and placed it beside Louis' before

telling Zoe, "Look at this."

Zoe took the photo from her and frowned deeply. As she scrutinized both images, her eyes gradually

widened. "F*ck! They're so alike. I knew it! Louis can't be Jethro's son. He's probably your half-brother!"

Leanna went silent for a while. "Even you feel the same. Aidan said there wasn't a significant difference

when I showed him this last night."

Zoe then asked the same question Leanna had. "What does he even mean by that?"

She answered in exasperation, "He said good-looking people all look the same."

Zoe was speechless by Aidan's response. Then, she refuted, "That can't be. Louis' eyes and his

features look similar to your dad's."

She proceeded to continue with her analysis. "But I think President Pearson may be right. Good-

looking people do have similarities. Besides, this photo of your father is at least 20 years old. We can't

use this as proof of our suspicions."

On the other end, Leanna sighed silently. Zoe's words made sense. Some people looked alike despite

not being related by blood. Still, for this coincidence to fall on William and Louis…

Then again, Aidan had done a DNA paternity test to clarify this matter. Besides, he had no reason to

hide this from her.

After a while, Zoe said, "Why don't you send both your and Louis' pictures to your father? I'm sure he

has a better idea."

Leanna replied, "I was thinking that too. But…what if this isn't true. You know what my dad feels about

Louis because of Jethro. That's why I want to wait for solid evidence before telling him about this."

Zoe nodded agreeably. "Yea. We should do that. We shouldn't rush such an important matter. Then…

What do you have in mind now?"

She answered, "I want them to do another DNA test."

"It's simple enough to get a DNA sample from Louis, but your dad is in Lachstein. That's far from easy.

Also, you can't let him find out about this. This is going to be challenging."

Leanna lowered her head. "Yeah. I'm still thinking over my options right now."

After a moment of silence, Zoe suggested hesitantly, "Maybe…you can ask Daniel. He may know what

to do. When you returned to the Crossley Residence, he asked me about Louis. I guess he has some

suspicions regarding this matter as well."

Leanna then retorted, "But he's still in the hospital. I'm certain he can't return to Lachstein so soon,

especially with his severe injury. Even if he arranged for his people to do this, they wouldn't be able to

easily get ahold of William's DNA too."

"Then… Elijah? I remember that he's one of your father's men."

Leanna fell silent. "I don't want to ask him for help."

Even though Leanna didn't want to go into detail about what happened that night, Zoe understood her

concerns. Elijah had pursued Leanna for a long time, so he probably still had feelings for her.

It was better to keep her distance from him and avoid contacting him just in case.

Then, Leanna murmured, "I'll think of something. Such a long time has passed, we can wait a few more

days. Besides, my dad may return to Highside soon. It'll be easier to make them take the DNA test

then."

Zoe nodded. "I guess all we can do now is wait."

Leanna picked up the photos and mulled over it. "Zoe, I'm going out later. Call me if anything happens."

Zoe replied, "Okay."

Then, she asked casually, "Where are you going?"

Leanna was silent for a few breaths, but the words couldn't escape her mouth. She wanted to visit

Daniel at the hospital. Firstly, to see how he was recovering. Then, she recalled what Elijah had said.

Even though she didn't believe him, she still wanted to prove Aidan's innocence. She couldn't let Elijah

accuse him like that.

Zoe noticed the look on her face and immediately caught on. So, she didn't pursue the matter further

and merely replied, "Okay."
