Chapter 449

“I don’t know what you are talking about.” Lloyd frowned. “The Crossley Group is doing just fine.
There’s no so-called debt or anything. I handed the Crossley Group to her because she is my daughter
and she should be the company’s successor.”

At this time, Aidan emerged out of nowhere and mentioned in a cold tone, “Why do I not see Miss
Crossley tonight? There should be no reason for her not to participate in such a big event.”

Lloyd stood with his hands behind his back as he commented, “Georgina is not feeling well. She is
resting in her room upstairs.”

“Is that so? Please send someone to bring her here. I have something I would like to ask her.”

Lloyd swiftly peered at Aidan from the corner of his eye. “I said she is not feeling well.”

“Is she really unwell or is she absent because she can’t accept the fact that she only stood in as the
daughter of the Crossleys by robbing something that is rightfully someone else’s?”

“I was the one who adopted Georgina. She hasn’t got a clue about any of this. I admit that I owe
Leanna a lot, but I have already given her the company. Please don’t be too harsh, President Pearson.”

“Do I have to tell you again what sh*tty state the Crossley Group is in now?”

Just as Lloyd was about to speak, a video suddenly played on the screen on the stage.

The video showcased all the information on the accident that happened to the Crossley Group a few
months ago.



Most of the guests who were in attendance were people extremely sensitive to finances and numbers.
They already noticed the problem after reading only a few pages.

The numbers of this project were wrong and caused such a large difference, especially when a large
amount of project funding had disappeared.

Moreover, for such a large project to still be running as usual without the support of huge funds showed
how inferior the materials used were.

In the photos that appeared consecutively, there were many material details and financial transactions,
all of which were signed by Lloyd.

It turned out that nothing was as Lloyd said. The problem was with several high-level executives—all
the details of this project were handled by Lloyd.

At the same time, a reporter had snuck into the crowd at some point, and there was a burst of snapping
camera lights at the screen on the stage.

Many guests even wondered who took photo evidence of something so confidential.

“These were taken by my father. He used to work as the Crossley Group’s project manager. After he
discovered all this, he found a chance to take pictures of the evidence. Unfortunately, he was killed by
Lloyd before he managed to make it public. The Crossley Group announced to the outside world that
my father died from an accident during a project when Lloyd was the one who killed my father!”

A child’s voice suddenly rang out in the banquet hall.

Upon hearing that, Leanna looked over and saw a young child filled with vengeance pointing at Lloyd. It
was the child that Zoe met online!



Lloyd’s eyes shifted in William’s direction then. By now, the malice in his eyes was no longer
concealed. “I knew it was you.”

“It’s only because I have business with the Crossley Group that I have to protect my interests,” William
murmured with a smile. “I had an investigation done and I was surprised to find out that the Crossley
Group has such a big hole that is leaking. I couldn’t not worry about this whole situation, so I came here
to ask you about it, Mr. Crossley.”

“Who the hell are you?!”

“Me? I’m just an honest businessman.”

Lloyd snorted when he heard that. “Now that things have come to this, you act any longer. You are all
working together, aren’t you? I should have seen through this earlier.”

Mr. Jackson walked over with his cane, his face solemn. “You’re the one who doesn’t have to put on an
act anymore. Leroy Crossley, how much longer are you going to keep acting dumb?”

As soon as these words came out, the initially quiet banquet hall became restless.

“I didn’t hear that wrong, did I? Leroy Crossley? Didn’t he kill himself in the explosion twenty years
ago?”

“Exactly! He has been dead for too long to come back to life suddenly. What is Mr. Jackson talking
about?”

“Ah… I suddenly remembered that Leroy Crossley and Lloyd Crossley are identical in front of us is
actually Leroy Crossley, not Lloyd Crossley?”

“What the hell… I’m getting goosebumps.”



Facing everyone’s unhidden discussions, Lloyd stayed calm as he said indifferently, “Mr. Jackson, I
don’t understand what you are talking about.”

“Don’t understand? I think you understand very well!” Mr. Jackson hissed. “The paternity test report just
now was on you and Georgina. You realized you couldn’t pretend to be Lloyd by yourself after the
explosion that year because you had too many flaws. That was why you tirelessly looked for your
illegitimate daughter outside. Since she happened to be the same age as Leanna, you made her
replace Leanna!”

“As I said, I adopted Georgina. What illegitimate daughter are you talking about? That’s absurd!”

“Care to take her to the hospital for a paternity test now?” Mr. Jackson continued sharply with his cane
in both hands. “Of course not! Not only are you afraid that the results of the paternity test will show that
she is your biological daughter but you’re also afraid that the DNA will show that you’re not the real
Lloyd! This is why you didn’t want to do a paternity test with Leanna back then!”

Aidan was the one who slowly spoke up this time. “Is there anything else you would like to say, Mr.
Crossley?”

“Every one of you is making things up!” Lloyd roared. “You’re pinning a crime on me that I didn’t
commit. I can’t say anything when all of you have ganged up on me!”

Jonathan walked over right then. “It’s done, President Pearson,” he reported.

Hearing that, Aidan gave a small hum before he continued, “I have great news for you, Mr. Crossley.
The fire at the Crossley Residence has been put out. The only thing that caught on fire was a couch, so
the damage can’t possibly be serious. We can get the safe to prove your ‘innocence’ now, yes?”

“Good job, all of you!” Lloyd sneered and took a few steps back. “I have nothing to say.”



Suddenly, the lights hanging on the ceiling of the banquet hall exploded with a bang. As the lights went
out, the surroundings fell into darkness.

Screams began to arise in the area then. No one knew who the person in front of them was.

Leanna didn’t even notice where she was until she was squeezed by the crowd. Suddenly, she felt a
hard bump on her back that made her stagger. She felt herself falling into a warm and familiar embrace
when she was about to fall. At the same time, another hand held her by the wrist.

Aidan is the one who is hugging me, so whose hand is on my wrist?

The emergency lights turned on after a few seconds and she felt the hand holding her wrist withdraw.
She thought she saw William’s retreating figure in the split second the place went bright again.

Aidan’s voice rang out from above her head then. “You should be gazing at me with love and gratitude-
filled doe eyes right about… now. But where exactly are you looking?”

Leanna was speechless and she looked away. “I prefer it when you keep quiet.”

Geez, the atmosphere’s all ruined because of Mr. President right here.

When everyone came back to their senses, they found that Lloyd… No, Leroy, had disappeared.
