Chapter 784 Do I Need to See Him?
The Pearson Residence.
Just as Justin exited Gordon's room, a man hurried over to him. "Young Master Justin, something has
happened."
After the man whispered a few words to Justin, Justin remained unfazed and simply turned his
wheelchair, asking calmly, "Why would Aidan suddenly start searching for her?"
The man looked toward the room behind him. "Old Master Pearson's men had left the residence today."
Upon hearing that, Justin smiled. "So that's how it is."
He had never avoided or stopped Gordon's men from going to find Aidan.
In fact, he even supported it.
Inside the living room, Amanda was wandering around.
When she saw Justin approaching, she said, "I didn't expect you to have a hobby of collecting
antiques."
Justin smiled gently. "I can give you one if you like them."
His response clearly took Amanda aback, and her interest was piqued.
She sat on the sofa. "I know you don't want us coming here, but I had no choice. They have found the
places I frequent went to, so I can only come to you."
Justin's gentle smile remained as he had a servant pour her some tea. "As you can see, I am just a
disabled man. I can't help you with anything."
"I only need you to help me leave Highside. You must have a way. No one will be able to get me once I
leave here."
"Have you accomplished what you wanted to do?"
Amanda's face showed a hint of resentment. "How can I consider my mission accomplished if he's not
dead yet?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJustin said, "You had many opportunities to kill him."
"But wouldn't dying be too easy for him?" Amanda asked, then smiled. "I learned this from you. Torture
the person you hate the most, and make their lives a living hell where they want to die but couldn't.
That's the most satisfying way."
Justin simply smiled and didn't respond.
Amanda clearly didn't come here to discuss how to torture her enemies. She asked directly, "When can
I leave?"
Justin replied, "Give it some time. Today's incident has caused a huge commotion, so everything will be
very strict."
Before Amanda could say anything, Justin continued, "Since you already know that this is the safest
and only place for you, you shouldn't doubt the security here."
That was indeed true.
"I understand."
As soon as Amanda finished speaking, one of Justin's men hurriedly came in. "Young Master Justin,
Young Master Aidan has returned..."
Hearing that, Amanda was startled, but before she could speak, Justin instructed, "Hunter, take her
upstairs."
Hunter responded, "Yes."
The moment Amanda was brought upstairs, Aidan entered the living room.
Justin looked at him and smiled. "Aidan, why are you back at this hour?"
Glancing around indifferently, Aidan sat opposite him. "Nothing, just passing by."
"I see." Justin maneuvered his wheelchair to the coffee table and made tea for Aidan. "Have a seat."
Spotting the teacup on the coffee table, Aidan asked, "Did someone come over today?"
Justin's gaze fell to the side as he calmly replied, "Yes, someone came and left not long ago."
"What was so urgent that they didn't even finish their tea before leaving?"
Justin smiled. "It was some company matters, nothing important. Maybe they left because it's too quiet
and uncomfortable here."
Aidan's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't respond.
Justin asked, "How have you and Leanna been recently?"
"We're doing very well."
Justin continued, "I heard that she found Daphne Shirley to be the spokesperson for her brand. Once
the advertisements are released, it will definitely boost her studio's popularity. She is a very talented
designer, and I'm happy to see her hard work finally being recognized."
Aidan's lips curled into a smile, but his smile had a hit of coldness. He said, "You have always seen
these things more clearly than I do."
Justin sighed. "It's always easier for an outsider to see things clearly. You behaved that way because
you were biased."
Then, Aidan explained, "It's not because I was biased but because everyone in the Pearson Family
looked down on her. Well, except for you."
"I only believe in what I see."
"In Leanna's heart, you are the only good person in the Pearson Family, and the only one who treated
her sincerely." Aidan looked at him while speaking flatly. "Even after Sienna harmed her multiple times
and almost took her life, even causing her miscarriage, she never directed any of her hatred toward
you."
When Justin heard that, he maintained his smile. "Leanna is a kind woman. It's fortunate that you and
she could be together in the end."
Aidan added, "Even though so many things have happened after Sienna's death, Leanna has never
suspected any of those were related to you."
The hand Justin was holding his cup with shook slightly. "Aidan, I don't quite understand what you're
saying. Do you think… I have something to do with those incidents?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAidan replied, "I believe you know that someone from the Pearson Family came to see me today."
Seemingly shocked, Justin asked, "Is that so? I'm not sure about it."
After a pause, he added, "Maybe Dad misses you. Why don't you pay him a visit upstairs?"
Aidan asked, "Do I need to see him?"
Justin persuaded, "He's bedridden, and except for moving his eyes, he can't even speak a word.
Although I don't know why someone from the family went to see you…"
While he spoke, he smiled. "Maybe you should go visit him yourself to clear your doubts."
"I didn't come here to see him. Whether he's alive or dead has nothing to do with me, so whatever he
said no longer matters anymore.
After letting out a silent sigh, Justin questioned, "So you came here to…"
Aidan got straight to the point. "Give her to me."
At that moment, Hunter came down the stairs. "Young Master Justin, a woman jumped in from the
window upstairs and tried to harm Old Master Pearson. I've already dealt with her."
Looking at Aidan, Justin asked, "Were you referring to this woman?"
While he spoke, several men brought over Amanda's body.
Justin instructed Hunter, "Search the surroundings to see if there are any more suspicious people, just
in case she has an accomplice."
With a nod, Hunter left.
Then, Justin turned to Amanda's corpse and spoke regretfully. "Although I don't know why you're
looking for her, since you came here, it must mean she's important to you. You can take her away."
Once that was said, Aidan rose to his feet. "No need."
After withdrawing his gaze, he continued, "Too many have died in this house, which makes this house
seem eerie. That's not good for your injuries, so you should move to another place."
When he was done, he left without looking back.
