Chapter 682 You Still Look Cute

Once Charlotte was forcefully dragged into the car, everything finally calmed down, and the group of

men left quickly. Joseph gazed at the unconscious woman by the road and was about to leave when

several car lights suddenly appeared.

Squinting his eyes, he approached Zoe and picked her up before heading onto the middle of the road.

A black car stopped before them the next moment when Keaton quickly exited the vehicle.

Joseph urged, "Bring her to the hospital, quick. Otherwise, it'll be too late."

When Keaton saw Zoe's condition, he carried her from Joseph and asked, "Where's Miss Woodley?"

He frowned. "I couldn't protect Charlotte. They brought her away."

Then, Keaton turned to look at the car beside him and ordered, "Catch up to that car. We cannot let

them leave Highside." Once he gave the orders, he quickly brought Zoe into the car and sped toward

the nearest hospital.

In the meantime, Joseph looked at the departing car and pondered before driving his car to follow

Keaton.

Meanwhile, in Lachstein, Leanna began packing up after lunch. They had to go to the hospital before

returning to Highside that night. For some reason, her things had doubled from when she came, with

five pieces of luggage in total. Besides her clothes, she had bought everyone presents, including Zoe,

Louis, Daphne, Charlotte, and even Jonathan.

It was 3.00PM when she finished packing her things. Then, she pushed her luggage to the door and

clapped. "That's it. Let's go."

Aidan commented, "Others would think you're in procurement services."

She was speechless and snorted softly. "People with no friends, like you, will never understand."

Hearing that, he hesitated but did not utter a word.

At that moment, she thought of Oscar, who had not appeared before her since he fell ill. Wanting to

change the topic, she said, "Alright. We've got to go."

When they arrived at the hospital, William's condition improved as he seemed more energetic than the

day before. Many company higher-ups gathered outside his room, wanting to see him, but they were all

blocked by William's assistant.

When the group saw Leanna and Aidan entering, they began complaining softly in Dellshorean. All of

them were questioning why he could settle company matters on William's behalf during the two weeks.

Although Complex and Pearson Groups were in partnership, no collaborating partners would

'collaborate' to this extent.

The assistant smiled. "That's Mr. Morris' daughter, and President Pearson is his future son-in-law."

Everyone was shocked. "When did Mr. Morris have a daughter?"

"It's a long story."

While the group was outside discussing, Leanna entered the room and saw William flipping through

something. She approached him and asked, "What are you looking at?"

He looked up and flashed her a smile before handing her the item in his hand. It was a thick photo

album.

When she opened the album, the first page was a photo of William and her mother, but his face

remained as Lloyd's.

A few pages later, they had a young girl between them.

While Leanna flipped through the pictures, William explained, "Nothing was left of the Crossley Family

after that explosion, and these photos were printed out from Mr. Jackson's film."

She asked, "Were you close to him?"

"Your mother used to be his student, and the Crossleys were good friends with the Jacksons, so Mr.

Jackson is like a half-uncle to me. When my parents were involved in an aircraft accident, I gave him a

copy of all the films at home because he missed them. I didn't expect that act would benefit me in the

end."

"My mom… She's beautiful."

He slowly added, "You and your mother look alike, and so do your tempers."

Closing the album, Leanna spoke up after a while, "I'm sorry."

When William heard that, he gazed at her, probably confused.

Her head was down. "I knew the truth and that you're my father, but I chose to avoid it back then and

pretended as if nothing happened."

He responded, "You don't have to blame yourself. I understand what you were thinking. I've never been

a father to you, yet I made you deal with Crossley Group's matters, leaving you in harm's way. So, I

should be the one saying sorry."

"That's not it… I decided to take on Crossley Group's matters. It's just that I couldn't keep living the life I

wanted and do nothing."

"You did well. Crossley Group wouldn't have gotten to where it is without you."

After that compliment, Leanna felt slightly embarrassed and touched her nose. "So… When are you

planning to return to Highside?"

William answered, "Once I find Daniel and settle the matters here. It will take at least six months or two

to three years at most."

She asked, "Daniel, is he…"

"He'll be fine. I heard about what happened between him and your friend. I'll do my best to help her if

she needs anything while Daniel is away."

The two chatted for a while, and before she left, she held the photo album and asked, "Can I bring this

with me?"

He nodded. "Sure. I have another copy with me."

She clutched the album in her arms and smiled. "I'll get going. Rest well… Dad."

The sound of that froze William, and he could barely register what had happened. That was the last of

her as she turned around and sprinted away, eliciting a smile from him.

When Leanna came out from the ward, the group of company executives had left, leaving only Aidan.

She asked, "When did you come out?"

He put his phone into his pocket and replied, "While you two were talking. I couldn't join your

conversation, so I excused myself."

A smile appeared on her face as she patted the album in her arms. "I'll let you have a look on the

plane. I looked adorable when I was young."

Curling his lips, Aidan caressed her head. "You still do."

Embarrassed, Leanna blushed and looked around, heaving a breath of relief after seeing no one

around them. Then, she urged, "It's late. Let's go."

He looked at the time and offered, "Why don't we grab something to eat?"

"No. Let's eat on the plane."

They had been away for one month, and the thought of going home pumped her up. Just as she took a

few steps forward, she felt someone pulling her hand, prompting her to turn around and ask, "What's

the matter?"

Aidan was staring at her with his black eyes and pursed lips. It took him a few seconds before he

announced, "I have something to tell you."

Seeing his slightly contorted expression, Leanna lowered her voice as the smile on her face slowly

faded. "What happened?"
