Chapter 441 Just This Once

A sense of relief overwhelmed me when I left Harmon Group. All Leonard wanted was for me to attend the press conference. Naturally, he would agree to my terms. There was no way Leonard would keep paying for someone like Jasper. After all, he had outlived his usefulness. He was nothing more than a pawn in Leonard's eyes. Francesca glanced at me several times and bit her tongue. She didn't speak up until we were in the car. "Are you okay, Ms. Eva? You two were in the office..."

I knew what Francesca saw, but I didn't have the heart to explain myself. "Don't worry about it. The collaboration will continue. Harmon Group would never make losing investments."

If the projects couldn't go on, Harmon Group would have to pay compensation as well. It would be unwise for Leonard to hurt himself just because he wanted to hurt me. Naturally, it wasn't something he would do either. Francesca patted her chest. "This is great. Phew. You're awesome, Ms. Eva. We would've been goners otherwise."

I flashed her a helpless smile. I didn't think I was in any way awesome. Green Group might not have been in such deep waters if it weren't for me.

I looked at the familiar views outside the window and felt nothing but pity for myself. I didn't tell anyone about the press conference tomorrow. Instead, I went there on my owWTL

"You're here early, Eva. Look, I prepared a gown for you" Leonard immediately ordered his staff to apply makeup for me, but 1 quickly raised my hand to stop him. "It won't be necessary.

There seemed to be a hint of disappointment in Leonard's eyes, but he immediately chuckled and said, "Yeah. We did. You look fine like this too. You'll always be the most beautiful lady in the world, Eva." He gently brushed my wip

Ichuckled. "Don't tug too hard now. Otherwise, my bald head will be the only thing that everyone sees later."

Leonard stopped dead in his tracks, and a hint of disdain seemed to have flashed in his eyes. However, he swiftly composed himself. "I'm sorry. It slipped my mind

Yeah. He had long forgotten that I had cancer. I was falding my health and my smiles, even the silky black hair on my head was just a wig. It was just t forgotten everything about it.

With that said, it no longer mattered to me.

Leonard quickly arranged for everyone to prepare for the press conference. His phone rang, and he handed me his phone delightfully. The screen showed a man struggling against the bandage on his feet and hands, It was Jasper. He had arrived at the airport, and there were several burly men around him

"The plane's taking off at once. They'll move him into it, and he'll be flown back to Manovia. I'll keep every promise I made to you, Eva"

I nodded indifferently

htly and stopped looking at his phone. I was quite familiar with Leonard's way of doing things. If he could get Jasper into Pyrosia, then he could just as easily send him packing.

I'll only work with you this time, Leonard."

Leonard raised an eyebrow evasively. Instead of responding to me, he waved at someone by the door. Then, a middle-aged man pushed a stroller inside. I Instinctively ducked to the side.

"Take a look, Eva This is Lev, our son, He's as skinny as you are. Both of you have to eat more in the future."

Leonard played with Levon happily and said, "Look, Lev. It's your mommy."
