I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 187

Chapter 187 Capitalists Are Ruthless, Stingy Men In actual fact, Leanna was not surprised about the current

outcome. Still, it was for the best as the person hadfinally been located, which meant that Louis no longer had

to live with the guilt. After quite some time, a dejected Louis voiced out, "I will try using other methods." Leanna

turned around to look at him.

"Louis, do you really have no interest in dating?" "No." Suddenly, she thought of something and probed, "Are

you perhaps... interested in men? You know,I'll always love and support you regardless... What matters is your

happiness." At that point, his expression turned thunderous.

"That's not the case at all." He continued, "Stop fretting about me.

I know what I'm doing whereas you, on the other hand, should pay more attention to yourself." She smiled.

"I'm doing quite well right now." "I heard from Zoe that someone is pursuing you." Speechless for amoment,

Leanna replied, "Don't listen to her.

We're just friends.

There's nothing going on." However, Louis had a doubtful look on his face.

In spite of that, she quickly sent him on his way.

"That's enough.

I don't need you here anymore, so you should head back to school."

Before he left, he hesitated for amoment before asking, “That person from before... Will she visit you again?"

At that moment, Leanna was momentarily stunned by his question.

"Who are you talking about?" "That actress friend of yours." Finally, it dawned upon her and she replied,"Do

you mean Daphne? She's rather busy, so she might only pop over when she's free.

What's up?"

He replied calmly, "Nothing much.

One of my classmates wanted her autograph and asked me for a favor."

"HI let her know the next time she comes over, then.

How many do you want?" "Any amount will do." After he completed his 'mission', he left in a rush without a

second glance at her.

Meanwhile,Leanna smiled as she looked at his retreating figure.

She was just about to retract her gaze to continue work when she noticed an uninvited person at the entrance.

Georgina stood there and finally entered the studio afterwatching Louis leave. She met Leanna’s gaze and revealed a slight smile.

"Is that your friend, Miss McKinney?" "He’s my brother." As soon as Georgina heard that, she lifted her brow.

"I can't believe that your brother's so good-looking.

I’m quite envious of you." Leanna knew that her words were merely exaggerated pleasantries, so she smiled politely and asked, "What can I do foryou, Miss Crossley?" After their last exchange, she had assumed that they would not encounter each other again from then on. Unexpectedly, Georgina

actually came over to see Leanna on her own accord just two days after that incident. Georgina responded with a smile, "I came over today for two matters.

Let's talk business first.

I would like to commission you to custom-make a necklace for me.

However, it will be an urgent order as I need it by Saturday."

"I'm sorry, Miss Crossley, but we don't accept orders on shortnotice.

Besides, there is a list of customers awaiting their custom-made orders and we have them lined up for the next few months."

Georgina seemed slightlyregretful.

"Is that so? I should have done my homework prior to my visit.

I’m sorry for the trouble." "Miss Crossley, is there anything else that I can help you with?" Leanna maintained her smile.

Georgina reached into her bag and retrievedan invitation card.

"It's my birthday this Saturday, so I've invited some friends over to celebrate with me.

I hope that you will join us too." Completely taken aback by the situation, Leanna was unsure for a moment regarding Georgina's intentions and thoughts.

After a few seconds,Leanna finally responded, "Thanks for the kind invite, Miss Crossley.

I'm not too acquainted with your friends, so I think—" ' Don't you worry, Miss McKinney.

They're all easy-going people and we are all around the same age.

Besides, I mentioned before that I wanted to befriend you and I'm serious about that.

I realize that you must have had a bad impression of me previously, so I hope that wecan take this chance to resolve our misunderstanding.

I reckon that it's not worth losing such a great friend like you over a man."

Her words had left Leanna with no other choice at all.

Suddenly, she could notseem to tell whether Georgina was being sincere or putting on an act. If she was genuine about this, then Leanna would have been too judgmental all this while.

However, if Georgina was just putting on a show, then she was indeed a very schemeful person to be able to turn up today despite Leanna’snasty words previously. Just as Leanna was contemplating a response to Georgina's words, the invitation card was already placed in front of her.

"Miss McKinney, you can take some time to consider this.

No matter what happens, I will always wait for you." After Georgina said that, she nodded slightly to Leanna and turned around to leave.

Leanna lowered her eyesand glanced at the pink invitation card before her.

At that moment, she felt a pulsating vein on her temple.

It was then that Zoe walked out of the breakroom and cast eyes on the card before snorting.

"The rich are indeed different from us average people.

They even give out invitation cards for birthdays." Leanna lifted her head.

"Did you catch our conversation?" Zoe raised her hand and gestured.

"Just parts of it." Subsequently, she asked, "Do you plan to go?"

Leanna shook her head and placed the invitation card aside.

"No." Even though Georgina had broken off her engagement with Aidan, Leanna had no intention of being

entangledwith wealthy families like theirs. Moreover, there was no point in being friends as they would not be

able to relate to each other coming from two different worlds. In the afternoon, there was suddenly a NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

commotion outside and Leanna was distracted by the noise.

Not being able to focus on her designs, she walked out of her office and shot a look outside.

"What's going on out there?" One of the girls in the shop had just gone out to find out what wasgoing on and

she answered, "A developer has taken over the shops in this area.

Apparently, there has been serious pollution going on over the last few years, so they intend to focus on

protecting theecosystem by planting greenery around the area." At that moment, Leanna was slightly

speechless and she thought, Which developer would have such a great heart? These capitalists are basically

all ruthless, stingy men. "Is this place going to be demolished?" inquired Zoe. "I haven't heard them mention

anything about that.

They just stated that there would be more flowers and trees planted around this area." "How are we going to

continue withour business if that's the case?" Before the completion of the planting process, their customers

would arrive to see messy soil all over the place.

It would be worse if it rained as the whole area would be filled with muddy water. After Zoe considered the

situation carefully, she realized that this wouldnot be ideal.

She was about to roll up her sleeves and pop over in a huff to confront the other party when a man dressed ina

suit came in from the front door. The man spoke up, "I'm the person in charge of Project Hail Green in this area

and my boss has specifically given me the instructions to come over and apologize to the affected businesses.

We will only execute our project at night, so hopefully, we won't disrupt your working hours." "Oh, is that so?"

Zoe slowly rolled down her sleeves as shespoke. He handed over his name card.

"This is my contact details, so if you have any issues at all, feel free to contact me." Noticing the polite attitude

fromthe other party, she felt slightly ashamed of her abruptness from before.

"Sure thing.

Thank you for your hard work." The man nodded slightly and was about to leave when Leanna suddenly

walked over.

"Can I ask which company you're working for?" "Uhm..." The man recalled the instructions given by Jonathan,

to which he then replied, "Our boss prefers to keepa low profile when it comes to doing good deeds.
