I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 474

At 10.00AM, Aidan left only after Zoe arrived. Before he did, he calmly instructed, "Keep an eye on her, and don't

let her leave the hospital."

Though without any expression, he exuded a strong oppressive aura while reminding, so Zoe could only nod in

response instinctively.

Once the door was shut, she finally came to her senses. "What's wrong with him? He makes it sound like you're a

fugitive."

Leanna sat up in bed and chuckled dryly. "He's mad at me."

"Why?"

"Because I didn't let him know about yesterday's incident and went to meet Ron by myself."

Zoe clicked her tongue. "President Pearson gets jealous of any male you get into contact with, huh? I mean, I get it

if he's jealous of Elijah. After all, he did openly pursue you, but Ron—"

Leanna interjected, "He just finds Ron dangerous."

Regarding this matter, Zoe shared the same opinion as Aidan and nodded in agreement. "Ron is dangerous.

Besides, he's in cahoots with Queenie. I think President Pearson's worries aren't baseless. You'd better not meet him

alone again."

"He isn't actually a bad guy. He's totally different from Queenie and only forced by life circumstances."

Zoe heaved a sigh. "By the way, I haven't heard anything about her for some time now. How's she doing? Have

they caught the perpetrator in Elliot's case?"

Leanna shook her head. "I don't know about that. Back when the police took my statement, they said that they

would let me know once they caught the perpetrator, but they haven't called me yet, so they must not have

resolved the case."

As for Queenie, there had been no news from her ever since Leanna spoke to her on the phone a while ago. Ron

had been staying at Jethro's house over this period and had not been in contact with her either.

Zoe switched the topic. "What did the doctor say?"

Leanna responded, "It's nothing major. He said that I have been stressed out recently and was mentally strained, so

I fainted after being triggered."

"I do think that you should take a break. You've been so busy with work every day and have so many bothersome

things to deal with. I'd feel mentally strained if I were you."

Leanna nodded slightly. It took her some time before she said, "I want to see a psychiatrist."

Zoe was caught by surprise. "Is it that bad?"

"It's not because of this." Leanna chuckled. "Actually, I wanted to see a psychiatrist a few days ago and I finally

have time to do so now."

"Was it because… of that matter when you told me to visit the apartment?"

Leanna did not deny it and continued, "I don't know since when, but I keep having this niggling sense that the kid is

still alive. I was so sure that it was true every time, but the reality is, everything is just my imagination. I think it's

probably because there's something wrong with my head."

Zoe replied, "That's not the case. Perhaps it's because there have been too many coincidences. Besides, you've

mentioned before that Aidan has been keeping something from you, what if…"

Leanna shook her head. "He is, but it's something else."

As soon as Zoe heard that, she became curious. "Something else? What is it?"

"I keep having the feeling that there is another mastermind behind Daniel. If I'm not mistaken, that person should

be William."

"William?" Zoe could not help frowning.

"Yes."

She seemed to be considering that name in her mind until it suddenly dawned upon her. "Ah. Is he that really

gentlemanly guy? I recall a young woman mentioning before that he has an air similar to Lloyd's… Actually, no.

He's similar to Leroy."

As soon as Leanna heard that, she was stunned. Initially, she did not take that description to heart because she did

not think that William would be linked to the incident regarding the Crossleys, but now, she was pretty certain that

he was the one controlling things behind Daniel. Furthermore, she had been wondering who he was.

Zoe's words ignited an epiphany in Leanna. After a moment, she asked, "Do you think so too?"

Zoe tilted her head and analyzed. "Several months have gone by, and frankly speaking, I'm not too familiar with his

looks. However, I keep seeing Leroy's sanctimonious look on the news, so I'm quite familiar with that."

Indeed, after the bomb blast twenty years ago, Leroy had been intentionally impersonating someone else. He

appeared to be putting up a front and living his life under a different identity. However, one's mannerisms,

behaviors, and actions were something that was inborn and could not be amended even if one changed their looks.

Leroy had maintained his pretense for so long, but truthfully, one could tell from the occasional air of hostility he

exuded. Still, no one considered the situation from that angle since no one batted an eye back then when Leroy

was the one who had survived instead of Lloyd.

Yet, at this stage, there was someone who looked completely different from Leroy yet exuded an air that made

everyone feel like the two were identical in certain ways.

Leroy may have put on an act, but the other person behaved naturally the same way as Leroy would. The person

had ulterior motives and intended to go after Leroy. He was determined to uncover the truth back then and reveal

it to the public.

Furthermore, the person was intent on protecting Leanna, as evident in how he had gone to great lengths to locate

her mother's grave. After piecing the puzzles together, there was only a single conclusion she arrived at.

At that point, Zoe noticed Leanna to be lost in thoughts as she gazed hollowly into the distance. "Nana, what's on

your mind?" She waved her hand in front of Leanna.

It was only then that Leanna came back to her senses and parted her lips to say something, but she could not quite

come up with the words to say.

Zoe placed a hand on Leanna's forehead. "Are you okay? Do you want me to get the doctor for you? President

Pearson's going to find fault with me again if you end up being sick."

Leanna continued to hold Zoe's hand. After some time, she piped up, "Zoe, I suddenly have a scary notion."

"What's wrong?"

"I need your opinion. Do you think my biological father would let Jethro get away if he was still alive?"

Zoe did not even pause to consider the situation. "Of course not. Even I would be keen to dismember Jethro. It'd be

considered mercy by just killing him."

Leanna muttered under her breath, "Then… How about Jethro's biological son?"

Zoe suddenly felt goosebumps all over her body. "Sh*t! I'm stumped by this question. Personally speaking, I think

Jethro's actions should not be blamed on anyone else. Louis grew up together with you and you regard him as your

only family member, so you wouldn't blame Louis for what Jethro did to you. However, if it was your biological

father in question, then I wouldn't be as confident to assume so. After all, everyone has their own opinion, and it

depends on what he thinks. As a bystander, my view would be that Louis isn't related to him and Louis has

repeatedly attempted to harm you. He even caused harm to your mom… All in all, Louis is that jerk's son. Under

extreme rage, a person might not consider the situation carefully and maintain rationality. It seems inevitable that

they would… resort to a vengeful act."
