Chapter 171

Anna raised her hand as she spoke, but just as she was about to slap Leanna’s face, Leanna grabbed
her wrist in midair. Then, before she could come to her senses, she was slapped hard across the face.

Her eyes widened in disbelief as she yelled in a shrill voice, “You hit me? How dare you hit me!
Leanna, you…”

Leanna looked at her expressionlessly, “What else am I supposed to do? Should I invite you to sit down
for a cup of tea instead?”

She shrieked toward the outside, “What are you guys waiting there for? Are you blind?”

After that, several men immediately came in through the door.

She pushed her away with all her might. Looking ferocious, she yelled, “Smash up the place! Smash
everything up and leave nothing behind!”

Leanna looked imperturbable, though. She darted an impassive look at the few men who were about to
do as being told, saying, “I don’t know whether you guys are the Pearson Family’s men or the Zielinski
Family’s, but if you guys dare to do anything, I won’t let this slide easily. If someone’s gonna be held
accountable for this, Anna will probably be fine, but none of you will get away with it.”

The few men looked at each other. For a moment, they stood there and hesitated without coming
forward. They were all brought here from the Pearson Family by her. Although they took orders from
Sienna, they all knew that Leanna was Aidan’s ex-wife. She was disregarded by the Pearsons, but
Anna wasn’t of high standing in the Pearson Family either. If Leanna really went to the Pearson Family
to demand an explanation for this, it was true that the Pearsons wouldn’t be able to do anything to
Anna. Instead, they would only put all the blame on them.



Seeing that these men hesitated, Anna yelled at the top of her voice, “Do you really think she can do
anything about you? Nobody in the Pearson Family takes a shameless b*tch like her seriously; nobody
even cares if she’s dead or alive! If you guys don’t do as I told you, I’ll tell Aunt Sienna about this right
away, and all of you are gonna have a hard time!”

Just then, a figure stepped into the studio. After looking around, Elijah came to Leanna’s side, asking,
“Leanna, what’s going on?”

She replied impassively, “Nothing. It’s just a madwoman coming here with her people to cause trouble.”

He turned 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.”
