Chapter 1338
Aleigha walked with something of a swagger into the company.
Reporters, who had waited outside the company for days, were blocked outside the door by those bodyguards before they got any closer to Aleigha.
The appearance of Aleigha caused a sensation in the company.
The whole company was expecting Adrian's wrath and felt sorry for Aleigha.
Adrian's assistant walked up to greet Aleigha after a shudder.
"Miss Gardner, Mr. Xiao is busy and won't see you."
"Busy for what? Let me figure out."
"Miss Gardner, don't put me in a dilemma."
"I won't. You did a good job. Just wait outside."
After Aleigha got into the office, a faint smile flashed past the face of the assistant. He was a good actor too.
It was dark in the office, and Adrian sat on a chair. He turned around for the footsteps.
"Aleigha, how dare you come here!"
There was a smile on his face, but his tone was serious.
"There's no one else here."
"Aleigha, what is the good news?"
Adrian walked to the sofa and pulled Aleigha down carefully to sit next to him.
"Look at this."
Aleigha handed the file bag to Adrian, and there was a smile on her rosy face
"What is this?"
Adrian opened the file bag to find those bright red official seals.
"You got the projects?"
"Yes. Thanks to my Godfather, I got these governmental projects from his old subordinate. Do you like this surprise?"
Adrian didn't scrutinize those contracts, but a glance told him that they were influential.
They might not be hugely profitable but would alleviate the status of Aleigha in City A greatly.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Meanwhile, these contracts could lead Lennon into bankruptcy.
"I don't want to waste my time anymore. I would like to wage a fierce battle with them."
Aleigha said casually, but Adrian knew what she had suffered.
"Lennon lost all his money this time. Now, he should be considering getting Leona's money into this program."
It was clear to Adrian that Leona was the archenemy for Aleigha.
"I also have a gift for you."
"What is it? Samantha?"
"Do you like it?"
"I can do nothing to her right now. I trust you."
Aleigha became vicious because of what she had suffered. Adrian was born to be a King.
So, he had nothing to fear about.
"Well, come home tonight. I miss you so much."
"Tonight? No. What about tomorrow? Tomorrow is important."
Adrian looked at her helplessly and yielded at last.
"I have to leave now. Should you see me off?"
Adrian felt helpless and rubbed the tip of her nose, "Let's go, my Queen."
Aleigha stopped at the door and looked back at Adrian, "See you. Play your part!"
Adrian flared up after Aleigha left. He ordered the whole company to work overtime tonight.
Aleigha appeared downstairs, and reporter thronged toward her.
"Miss Gardner, shouldn't you respond to the scandal?"
"Miss Gardner, which stage are you and Maurice?"
"Miss Gardner."
"Miss Gardner."
"Everyone, see you tomorrow."
Aleigha got in the car with ease. Ignoring the reporters behind her, Aleigha asked the driver to send her to the Tanner's.
Isaias got well after a few days' rest. He was chatting with Emilee when Aleigha walked in.
"How do you feel now? Any better?"
Isaias nodded, "I am fine."
"Do you know who kidnaped you?"
Isaias, whose lips were pale and dry, glanced at Emilee before answering, "Maybe some old acquaintance."
"Where's your old sister?"
Isaias was taken by surprise, her eyes wandered around.
"Why are you hesitating? How can we help you when you say nothing at all! What if this kidnap happens again?"
Emilee felt choked by anger, and tears fell from her eyes.
"Emilee, it is not like that. She is my only family now. I can't..."
"It is a warning this time, and she may kill you next time. Do you still cherish a fancy that she has mercy on you?"
There were people who lost their senses.
"No, she won't!"
Isaias tried to defend his sister but felt his word powerless in front of the crystal eyes of Aleigha.
"Check this. This video recorded what happened that day. The kidnapper is her."
Isaias watched the video playing on the phone, and the corner of his mouth twitched. He uttered not a word.
"Well. Good to know that nothing worse happened to you! You have time to think it over. If you change your mind, contact me, and I will help you."
"Could you spare her life?"
Isaias lowered his head and asked after a long time.
Aleigha and Emilee looked at him at the same time. Finally, Aleigha nodded, "Okay."
Aleigha came for Tanner, not Isaias.
Tanner was away and didn't come back until 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
When Tanner was back, Aleigha was talking and laughing with Emilee.
"Aleigha is here. Is there anything I can help?"
Aleigha nodded.
"I heard that you are working with Ghostair recently?"
Tanner drank after giving a positive reply.
"How much will you get from this cooperation? I'll give you double."
Pu!
Tanner was taken back at what he heard and choked for the water in his throat.
"I'm serious."
"The boss of that company is an English. He is rich. Are you out of mind?"
"I am telling you the truth. Return all products related with Ghostair, right now!"
"It will ruin my business reputation."
Tanner was a businessman and thought highly of his reputation, though Aleigha's offer was very generous.
"That's all can do for you. You will regret et it if you don't return those
products before 8 p.m. het
before 8 p.m. toet
my last warning."
Aleigha had a faint smile on her face. Tanner was astonished at her words. He looked at Emilee, who looked puzzled too.
After a while, Isaias opened his

Emilee also nodded in agreement, "Tanner, you should listen to Aleigha." In confusion, Tanner called the program leader to do what Aleigha said.
Tanner started his company abroad and had a few businesses here.
It was a coincidence for him to work with Ghostair.
Half an hour later, Tanner got reports from his subordinates that all goods were returned.
Checking the time, Aleigha thought that Tanner should receive a call from Ghostair soon.
As expected, a call from Ghostair came before 8 p.m..
After the phone was connected, a soft female voice from the other end of the phone made Aleigha smile.
