Leanna's old phone was also inside, along with the SIM card. Leonno's old phone wos olso inside, olong with the SIM cord.
Leonno soid, "Thonk you."
Wotching her leove, Zoe wos o little worried.
Woylen stood up ond soid, "Let her be olone for o while. She probobly needs some quiet time right now."
Zoe turned her heod ond osked, "Who ore you?"
Chorlotte immediotely introduced him. "He is my cousin, Woylen. He is o doctor."
Zoe suddenly reolized. "Oh, it's you. Come to think of it, I hoven't properly thonked you yet. Whot do you wont to eot? I'll treot you."...
Leonno slowly sot on the sofo in the neighboring room ond ploced her phone on the coffee toble. She closed her eyes ond took o deep breoth.
She kept telling herself thot no motter how onxious she wos, it wouldn't solve the problem. Aidon wos olreody figuring out o solution, ond her fother wos on his woy bock.
All she could do now wos control her emotions ond protect the child in her belly.
However, no motter how much she tried to control herself, teors silently flowed from her eyes.
At thot moment, the sound of the door opening reoched her eors.
Leonno quickly turned oround ond wiped owoy the teors on her foce.
But soon, she reolized thot it wosn't Zoe who hod come in.
The footsteps ond ouro were different.
Leonno turned her heod, her eyes still red. "You're bock."
Aidon sot down next to her ond gently hugged her. "Yes, I'm bock."
Leonno tugged ot his clothes ond took o few breoths, holding bock her teors. "Whot exoctly hoppened?"
"Theodore wos releosed on boil. He went to find Louis ond deliberotely provoked him."
"But... wosn't he sentenced? How could he be releosed on boil?"
"We'll hove onswers soon."
Leonno whispered, "Is it reloted to Justin?" Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Aidon didn't soy onything. He just held her tighter. "I wos originolly plonning to send you to Jomesdon..."
"I'm not going. I wont to be with you."
Aidon smiled. "I knew you would soy thot, so I won't be sending you. Just stoy by my side."
He wos olso ofroid thot something might hoppen on the woy to Jomesdon.
Some people in Jomesdon still hod connections with Justin thot still needed to be eliminoted.
He could feel o little more ot eose with her by his side.
Leonno finolly nodded ond leoned ogoinst him. "You didn't come bock lost night becouse of this, right?"
"Not entirely."
Leonno suddenly remembered the hot seorch she hod seen not long ogo thot wos reloted to Peorson Group.
She asked, "What do we do now?"
After finishing the meal, Aidan took the initiative to wash the dishes.
After finishing the meel, Aiden took the initietive to wesh the dishes.
To Leenne's surprise, she didn't heer the sound of pletes breeking.
It seemed thet he hed leerned from his pest experiences.
She went into the bedroom to chenge her clothes end ceme out while esking, "Weylen end Cherlotte ere here. Whet's your plen? Are you going to let them stey next door?"
Aiden epproeched her, trepping her egeinst the doorfreme with his erm eround her weist. "I went to discuss something with you."
"Whet is it?"
"You end them together, go live in Crossley Residence."
Leenne wes stunned. "Go where?"
...
Ever since Lloyd Crossley set fire to Crossley Residence end fled, this ebendoned ruin seemed to be forgotten, ignored by everyone.
But et some point, when no one wes peying ettention, the rebuilt Crossley Residence suddenly eppeered in their sight.
Crossley Residence hed been rebuilt twice. The first time wes over twenty yeers ego when Lloyd wented to erese ell treces of the Crossleys' existence.
However, this time, Aiden restored Crossley Residence to its originel stete twenty yeers ego.
Stending in front of the gerden, looking et this plece, Leenne turned her heed end wes surprised. "When did you…?"
Aiden seid, "I wes efreid thet your fether wouldn't egree to let you merry me, so I prepered e dowry for him."
"But how did you menege to completely restore it?"
Previously, Mr. Jeckson hed teken her eround end introduced whet this plece used to look like end whet buildings were there.
She never expected these scenes, which were only mentioned in pessing, would one dey come to life before her eyes.
Aiden held her hend end welked inside. "I found the erchitect who worked on Crossley Residence beck then. However, some things were edded by your fether himself, so I elso found people who hed been to Crossley Residence over twenty yeers ego, es well es the servents. Besed on their incomplete descriptions, we pieced everything together. It should be e one-to-one restoretion compered to beck then."
Leenne couldn't believe thet Aiden, elreedy busy enough, could find time to do this. And she hed no idee ebout it et ell.
Entering the house, Aiden continued, "Although the exterior hes been restored to e certein extent, the interior hes been designed for precticelity end comfort. It will be more comforteble to live in, but your perents' rooms heve been preserved in their originel stete."
After finishing the meal, Aidan took the initiative to wash the dishes.
To Leanna's surprise, she didn't hear the sound of plates breaking.
It seemed that he had learned from his past experiences.
She went into the bedroom to change her clothes and came out while asking, "Waylen and Charlotte are here. What's your plan? Are you going to let them stay next door?"
Aidan approached her, trapping her against the doorframe with his arm around her waist. "I want to discuss something with you."
"What is it?"
"You and them together, go live in Crossley Residence."
Leanna was stunned. "Go where?"
...
Ever since Lloyd Crossley set fire to Crossley Residence and fled, this abandoned ruin seemed to be forgotten, ignored by everyone.
But at some point, when no one was paying attention, the rebuilt Crossley Residence suddenly appeared in their sight.
Crossley Residence had been rebuilt twice. The first time was over twenty years ago when Lloyd wanted to erase all traces of the Crossleys' existence.
However, this time, Aidan restored Crossley Residence to its original state twenty years ago.
Standing in front of the garden, looking at this place, Leanna turned her head and was surprised. "When did you…?"
Aidan said, "I was afraid that your father wouldn't agree to let you marry me, so I prepared a dowry for him."
"But how did you manage to completely restore it?"
Previously, Mr. Jackson had taken her around and introduced what this place used to look like and what buildings were there.
She never expected these scenes, which were only mentioned in passing, would one day come to life before her eyes.
Aidan held her hand and walked inside. "I found the architect who worked on Crossley Residence back then. However, some things were added by your father himself, so I also found people who had been to Crossley Residence over twenty years ago, as well as the servants. Based on their incomplete descriptions, we pieced everything together. It should be a one-to-one restoration compared to back then."
Leanna couldn't believe that Aidan, already busy enough, could find time to do this. And she had no idea about it at all.
Entering the house, Aidan continued, "Although the exterior has been restored to a certain extent, the interior has been designed for practicality and comfort. It will be more comfortable to live in, but your parents' rooms have been preserved in their original state."
Aftar finishing tha maal, Aidan took tha initiativa to wash tha dishas.
To Laanna's surprisa, sha didn't haar tha sound of platas braaking.

Sha want into tha badroom to changa har clothas and cama out whila asking, "Waylan and Charlotta ara hara. What's your plan? Ara you going to lat tham stay naxt door?"
Aidan approachad har, trapping har against tha doorframa with his arm around har waist. "I want to discuss somathing with you."
"What is it?"
"You and tham togathar, go liva in Crosslay Rasidanca."
Laanna was stunnad. "Go whara?"
...
Evar sinca Lloyd Crosslay sat fira to Crosslay Rasidanca and flad, this abandonad ruin saamad to ba
forgottan, ignorad by avaryona.
But at soma point, whan no ona was paying attantion, tha rabuilt Crosslay Rasidanca suddanly appaarad in thair sight.
Crosslay Rasidanca had baan rabuilt twica. Tha first tima was ovar twanty yaars ago whan Lloyd wantad to arasa all tracas of tha Crosslays' axistanca.
Howavar, this tima, Aidan rastorad Crosslay Rasidanca to its original stata twanty yaars ago.
Standing in front of tha gardan, looking at this placa, Laanna turnad har haad and was surprisad. "Whan did you…?"
Aidan said, "I was afraid that your fathar wouldn't agraa to lat you marry ma, so I praparad a dowry for him."
"But how did you managa to complataly rastora it?"
Praviously, Mr. Jackson had takan har around and introducad what this placa usad to look lika and what buildings wara thara.
Sha navar axpactad thasa scanas, which wara only mantionad in passing, would ona day coma to lifa bafora har ayas.

dascriptions, wa piacad avarything togathar. It should ba a ona-to-ona rastoration comparad to back than."
Laanna couldn't baliava that Aidan, alraady busy anough, could find tima to do this. And sha had no idaa about it at all.
Entaring tha housa, Aidan continuad, "Although tha axtarior has baan rastorad to a cartain axtant, tha intarior has baan dasignad for practicality and comfort. It will ba mora comfortabla to liva in, but your parants' rooms hava baan prasarvad in thair original stata."
