Chapter 124

Looking at the jewelry box scattered around her feet, Leanna saw the necklace inside the box had
been broken into two pieces and was strewed on the ground.

While she was looking at the broken necklace on the ground, Georgina came back to her senses at this
moment. She quickly looked at Anna and said, "Anna, what are you doing—"

However, Anna swiftly interrupted Georgina before she could continue inquiring about her action.
"Georgina, this woman faked her pregnancy and forced Aidan to marry her. She's also the woman who
tried every means to seduce Zayn!"

Georgina defended Leanna upon hearing that. "No, McK isn't someone with such a nature. Anna, could
it be that you misunderstood?"

Considering that she hated Leanna so much, Anna let out a sarcastic laugh when she heard Georgina
defend her. Nevertheless, despite her sarcastic laugh directed at Georgina's remarks, her eyes were
looking at Leanna while she talked, "Say: you're good at pretending. Do you think others won't know
what kind of trash you are in your core under that layer of facade you put on?"

"Uh—"

Leanna slowly turned around and looked at Anna with a calm demeanor. "What trash am I in my core?"

In contrast with Leanna's calm demeanor, Anna was a little agitated when she saw Leanna being able
to calmly refute her words. Therefore, she reprimanded her out of frustration, "Are you not aware of it
yourself? After you and Aidan got divorced, you started pestering Zayn. Not only that, you're still
pestering Zayn even now after he and I are already engaged. Are you really unable to live a life without



men?"

Still, Leanna remained her composure and smiled calmly. "Do you think you two can still get engaged if
I truly pestered Zayn?"

Anna uttered in anger, gritting her teeth, "Finally, you admit it!"

"What's there that I can't admit? You're just afraid that I will snatch Zayn from you. How about I fulfill
your fear now since you're so afraid?"

"You—"

At this juncture, Anna was enraged. She raised her hand and wanted to whack Leanna. Yet, Georgina
stopped her just when her hand was inches away from Leanna. "Anna, don't be impulsive."

Sure enough, Anna knew she shouldn't be reckless. Nonetheless, she was so enraged that she was no
longer rational at this moment. "You heard her. She can even spew such shameless words out of her
mouth. She deserves the fate brought upon her!"

Georgina frowned upon hearing those harsh words. "There's a big occasion going on today. Not to
mention, both Mr. and Mrs. Barnett are present too. Things won't be any good to you if things are blown
out of proportion."

As soon as these words escaped Georgina's lips, Anna calmed down. Despite that, she wasn't afraid of
what Georgina mentioned. In reality, she suddenly remembered that Aidan was also inside the hall.
Compared to Mr. and Mrs. Barnett, she was actually more afraid of Aidan.



He certainly won't let me go if he knows that I lay my hand on Leanna.

With that in mind, Anna withdrew her hand, but she immediately cast a furtive glance at Leanna's belly
as her mind started scheming something else.

At this moment, a bustling voice suddenly came from the banquet hall. Georgina's subordinates came
over and whispered a few words in her ear. As she listened, her facial expression changed slightly.
Then, she turned around and wanted to return to the hall. Regardless, she looked at Leanna after she
took a step forward. "Miss McK, I may need to trouble you to come with me. There's something wrong
with the jewelry pieces that Lux auctioned today."

Little did they know, a figure was waiting until they left and came out of the dark. After standing on the
spot for a while, the figure looked at the broken necklace on the ground. The figure only picked it up
and pocketed it after looking at it for a few seconds. After that, the figure turned and left.

…

In the meantime, things were pretty chaotic at the charity auction site. In line with the discussion, Lux
Jewelry would exhibit its jewelry pieces in order. Nevertheless, something happened when it was the
turn to auction Leanna's works.

Not only did Harvey's expression look slightly nasty, Queenie even stepped forward and asked in
confusion, "Isn't this the jewelry piece that I privately customized for Miss Crossley?"

Although her voice wasn't loud, the words that escaped her mouth still caused quite a stir in the quiet
banquet hall.



When the guests who attended the auction heard Queenie's words, they started discussing and
whispering, "What is Lux doing? Are they actually taking out a custom-made necklace for auction?!"

"This isn't right. Isn't it McK's works that are being auctioned now? How could it be—what the hell is
going on?"

"The McK that you're talking about—is she the designer who was rumored to be someone's mistress? I
saw her that time when I went to Lux's new product launch conference. She's quite beautiful indeed. I
think making such a woman be my sugar baby isn't such a terrible idea."

As soon as the person said this, he felt a cold and sharp gaze looking at him. Unfortunately, he
discovered nothing when he turned his head.

At this moment, no one was more anxious than Harvey after hearing these discussions. If my memory
serves me right, I swear I had double-checked until I confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the
jewelry before they were delivered to the charity auction site.

He was confident that he didn't make any possible mistakes, so he quickly went to look for Queenie.
Once he found her, he frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

When faced with Harvey's inquiry, Queenie shook her head. "I don't know either, but—it was yesterday
that I realized the necklace was lost. I contacted Miss Crossley, and she said she didn't take it. Mr.
Mancini, I saw McK's finished piece before, so this shouldn't be her work."

To Harvey's surprise, Queenie actually would justify the situation for McK. Therefore, he was silent for a
moment.



Frankly speaking, Harvey had always thought that Queenie was the biggest suspect in this matter.

Now that Queenie clarified on behalf of Leanna, Harvey looked at her thoughtfully. He found that
Queenie was calm with no trace of a guilty conscience.

So, he believed that Queenie was truly innocent in this matter, and he said, "You and I, we'll go to
Barnett Group's side and explain the situation to them. We'll try our best to minimize the impact of this
incident."

"Okay."

By the time Leanna and Georgina arrived at the banquet hall, they realized that the host had already
announced the suspension of the auction. Not only that, the crowd around them was discussing this
matter.

Once again, the rumor that Leanna was once being a mistress to a wealthy businessman resurfaced.
Furthermore, some even said that she had always plagiarized her works. They even added that the
overturning of the event this time was her karma. Moreover, there was even someone who said that the
reason Lux kept shielding her was that she had a secret lubricious deal with some high-level
executives.

One by one, those people spew those rumors confidently as if they possessed conclusive evidence.

In the meantime, Anna stood on one side with a disdainful look. Then, she crossed her arms in front of
her chest as she sneered, "There's nothing she can't do. Besides, it isn't once or twice she had seized
others' works as her own."



Georgina reprimanded her softly, "Don't say that, Anna. Currently, the issue has yet to be fully
investigated, so don't blindly accuse her."

"She knows whether or not I have accused her or not."

On the other hand, Leanna didn't want to have a meaningless quarrel with Anna in the banquet hall.
Hence, she went to look for one of Lux's staff members in the crowd and asked, "Where's Mr.
Mancini?"

"McK?" The staff was a little surprised when they saw her. Nevertheless, they quickly answered her. "I
just saw Mr. Mancini and Queenie go looking for Mr. Barnett."

With that, Leanna asked again, "Which way did they head?"

"Toward the VIP lounge."

Leanna nodded and thanked the staff upon hearing those words. After that, she turned to Georgina and
said, "I'm sorry, Miss Crossley. I'll excuse myself first."

Unexpectedly, Georgina said, "I'll go with you."

Just as Leanna wanted to refuse, she heard Georgina say. "After all, I'm also involved in this matter."

"Fine."

In the VIP lounge, Douglas couldn't hide his anger as he had heard a lot of Leanna's rumors just now.



"What is Lux Magazine trying to pull?! You guys actually send the works of such designers to auction
and even cause such a chaotic situation!"

Not forgetting his purpose in coming looking for Douglas, Harvey said, "We're very sorry, Mr. Barnett.
But you have misunderstood our designer, and the rumors about her from the outside world aren't true.
Besides, she designed the jewelry auctioned today. Hence, I'm sure there must be something wrong—"

Alas, Douglas abruptly cut him off. "I don't care about this. You guys had messed up such a good
charity dinner! I have already instructed someone to take down her lot, so you guys better come up
with a clarification statement on this matter afterward."

When Harvey sensed that Douglas was unwilling to compromise, he frowned. "Mr. Barnett, if you
remove her spot without any explanation, it'll only make everyone think she's—"

Once again, Douglas interrupted him with a cold voice. "That is none of my business."
