I'm Sorry My Love Novel

to look at Anna before frowning almost imperceptibly. He couldn’t help feeling that he had seen her

somewhere before. After a moment, he said, “You’re Miss Pearson, right?” She shot a glance at him

with an expression full of mockery and disdain. “Who the hell are you to think you have the right to

speak to me?” she said.

Then, she said to Leanna disdainfully, “You’ve always got plenty of guys around you, huh? It’s a

compliment to say that you have no sense of shame.” He turned a deaf ear to her words, though his

face grew somewhat frosty. “I’m Elijah Parker from Constellation Tech. Miss Pearson, it’s fine if you turn

up your nose at me. But please tell your father when you go back that my company doesn’t deserve the

collaborative project that he and I have been negotiating. Please ask him to look for another

collaborative partner.” Anna had tetchiness written all over her face. “Constellation Tech? What the hell

is that? If you know that we’re beyond your reach, then get lost and stop wasting my time over here!”

Leanna said, “Anna, I’m only giving you 30 seconds to leave.” “Do you think you can threaten me? The

only one backing you is that illegitimate son, who isn’t in Highside at the moment. What can you do

about me?” She smiled faintly.

“If my guess is correct, Justin should’ve warned you to stay away from me.” When Anna heard this, she

clenched her teeth with her eyes full of hatred. She had finally found an opportunity during Aidan’s

absence in Highside, but who would’ve known that someone from Constellation Tech would pop up and

spoil her plans? Not only that, Leanna—that b*tch—even used Justin—that cripple—to browbeat her! If

he were to learn that she had come here in secret to give Leanna a hard time, he would definitely

reprimand her for this, and Sienna would side with him as well. However, how could she be willing to

leave just like that? At this moment, Zoe also came out of her office. “If you don’t want to leave, then

stay.

I’ve called the police, anyway. We can have tea together at the police station later.” Anna let out a

sneer. “I’m not gonna let this slide. Just you wait!” Silence returned to the studio after she left with her

people. Leanna turned to look at Elijah, saying, “I’m sorry you had to witness such a show.” He shook

his head. “I’ve heard long ago that the Pearson Family’s daughter is spoiled, arrogant, domineering,

and unreasonable. Now that I’ve met her in person, I have to stay that the rumors are indeed true.” Zoe

said, “She’s a madwoman who brings bad luck to whoever she latches onto.” After a brief pause, she

continued, “Hey, you just said that you had a collaboration with her father. Were you referring to the

Pearson Family? Wouldn’t it be bad for you to cancel the collaboration like that?” He smiled. “No, it’s

not the Pearson Family. I won’t suffer any losses by canceling the collaboration this time. They’re the

only ones who’ll get anxious.” In fact, anyone who knew at least a little about the Pearsons would know

that despite Anna’s last name, both her parents weren’t members of the Pearson Family.

Her father married into the Zielinski Family and inherited the family’s wealth, but his business has been

heavily in debt over the last few years due to mismanagement. The Zielinski Family would have ceased

to exist long ago if not for the support of the Pearson Family. And besides, Aidan seemed to have been

clamping down on the Zielinski Family these days. In order to get the opportunity to collaborate with

Constellation Tech, her father had done everything he could and pulled a lot of strings. Elijah had only

agreed to collaborate with Anna’s father because he couldn’t turn him down. And now, Anna had given

him an opportunity by making a scene here. Zoe heaved a sigh of relief. “Good to hear that,” she said

while sneaking a glance at Leanna as her eyes flickered for an instant. “Well, then… Nana, show him

around the studio while I go out to buy a few cups of coffee.” Leanna knew without thinking what she

was up to again.

She grabbed Zoe and said with a faint smile, “Just order takeout. There’s no need to go to so much

trouble.” “But that’s…” Elijah chimed in, “I just happened to pass by, so I came to take a look. I have to

go soon.” When Zoe heard this, she quickly replied, “How could you leave? You saved us today, so we

have to treat you to dinner no matter what.” Leanna gave it a thought before saying, “If you don’t have

much to do at your office, let’s stay for dinner before going back.” In any case, if it weren’t for him,

Anna’s reckless disposition might really cause her to make a scene today. If that happened, the studio

would only be smashed up. Even if the police came, the damage was already done. And besides, now

that the collaboration had been canceled, there was no way it wouldn’t cause any losses like he had

said. Seeing that she had spoken, Zoe immediately struck the iron while it was hot, saying, “Yeah,

that’s right! However busy you are, you’ve got to eat. Now that you’re already here and have helped us

so much, we’ve got to thank you.” When he heard them say so, he didn’t decline their offer. He nodded

gently, saying, “Okay.”
