Chapter 74 Chapter 74 True Love Leonard looked really upset, like bewas holding something back I pulled my hand away and rubbed my webst ow are you willing to pay for "Don't be difficult. You know about the situation with Tom, and we can't afford to delay the Brightwave Group project. If I don't work overtnow, are you damages Brightwave Group might face?! I was sure that no matter how upset he was, he wouldn't stopfrom getting the work done. After all, the damages could easily be millions, and no company would want to deal with that unless it was absolutely necessary.

As expected, he didn't aeque further, just mattered quietly, "You could've gone to Harmon Group. Isn't your office big enough there?" "I'm worried something bad might happen again. What if everything I've worked for gets messed up? looked at him, determined to figure this out. If I didn't, Emma would be having problems at work. "What do you mean? Didn't they catch Tom? Leonard seemed confused, and 1 shook my head. "Tom's just taking the tall. I don't know why, but it's not ju just because he was mad at me.

"That night, Lily went to the security office pretending to be you. She deleted all the videos and upgraded the system, so no one knows who really went into the office "But I know for sure that Tom was super drunk. With that much alcohol, even ball would've been knocked out. And all the designs Lily bought were in Tom's name, so I think she's involved At the police station today, I tried to mention it, bet Lily interrupted me.

I figured she wasn't stupid and probably paid off the security staff, but since Leonard was the boss, they might not completely follow her orders.

1 thought Leonard, who could usually see things clearly, would look into it.

This would affect Harmon Group's business. If this got out, it could hurt their reputation.

But Leonard quickly dismissed it, "No, she was withat that time, at...." He suddenly stopped, as it he realized something was off I got right away. Late at night, what else could a man and woman be doing together? Playing a gof chess? Sering I might be upset, Leonard tried to explain, "Lily really couldn't have gone to the design department that night, and shr." "It's fine. I know you trust her. I look into this myself." I wasn't really surprised by his response; it was what I expected.

I just wanted to make sure I'd done my part and kept my hands clean. If things went wrong, I wouldn't want to be blamed.

Leonard tried to move closer, but I got up from my chair.

"There's no point in tallung more about this Zack, let's go hfor the right." I didn't want to argue with Leonard about Lilly anymore.

Leonard had many women around him before, but Lily was different. She was arrogant, clueless, manipulative, and vain. But Leonard clearly liked her.

It remindedof what fill said. I couldn't help but wonder, "Why did Lever fall for him? Was I really that blind?" As I tried to leave, Leonard grabbed my arm again, boking really angry, "Eva, stop changing the subject. You're doing all this just to be with Zack, aren't you? If it weren't for him, would you have even tried with the Dawnstar Corporation project? I couldn't get free from his grip, so I gave him a hard kick. It wasn't very nice, but it worked. Leonard stepped back and let go of my arm.

"Stop bothering me. It's disgusting." I turned away from him and followed Zack to the elevator.

As we went down, looked around at the nearby hotels and decided to stay close by so I wouldn't disturb Emma. Zack seemed to understand what I was thinking and tookto the nearest hotel "There are a few rooms here that the company keeps for clients all year. You can stay in one for now. It be easier that way," Zack said.

I didn't think much of it and went up to the room by myself Zack didn't cup with me, but by the next day, there were already rumors going around. I was surprised at how quickly Vera was spreading things After her week in detention, Vera started stalkingagain as soon as she got out. She took pictures ofand Zack going into the hotel.

I was sure she knew Zack lett right away, but she still wanted to make it look bad for me.

This time, Vera really went all out. She posted not just pictures ofand Zack, but also of Leonard and Lily. She even inchided photos of Leonard helping Lily in the hospital and sof Lily's social media Selfies. Wen's Twitter post was huge. She claimed that Leonard and I were both living separate lives and went on to list all the women Leonard had been with Shended by saying that Lily was Leonard's true love.

As a journalist, Vera had no trouble finding this information. Soon, bunch of women, allting attention, cforward, each sating they had been with Leonard yeas noked at the photos of these wom online and couldn't remember if any of them had ever been around me.

Darn though Vera's pert was quickly taken down, she immediately posted it everywher she could The intewould never forget, and soon major websites were sharing the This tice, the Barnen family's reputation was really in trouble
