Chapter 92 Chapter 92 ya The Successor All afternoon, I found myself distracted, my thoughts repeatedly returning to Penelope's words.

Lan truly had his ways. Not only was all the incrimsating evidence against Lily erased, but even the online news had been scrubbed clean of any related headlines. After all, the mother of child from the Harmon family had to be spotless When Leonard walked into my office, I was staring blankly at my computer. Penelope's face flashed before my eyes again. She seemed so passionate and righteous about everything and everyone.

She knew I was aware of the truth, yet she didn't press me, choosing instead to conduct her private investigation. There weren't many police officers like her left. "Eva, are you ready to go home? cto pick you up Leonard's smile was warm, and his voice was noticeably softer. Our colleagues, who hadn't yet left for the day, looked at us as if they'd seen a ghost in the three years we'd been married, this was the first tLeonard had ever cto pickup from the office Even though we both worked at the scompany, he had ahwaignored me. There were always other women around him. It was always other women comin the gossipy glance trom my colleagues, packed my bag, and stood up But before I could walk over to him, Lily had already latched onto Leonard's "Leo, let's go home." She was staying at the Harmon residence now, and naturally, she felt superior to me. When she said those words, she looked atsmugly I pretended not to see anything and sat back down, pulling out my phone to call a cab. It was rush hour, so there were plenty of people in line for a ride. All I could do was wait But Leonard, uncharacteristically, pushed Lily away. "Lily, show srespect." "You can head hEm here to pick up my wife," he said.

If he had treated Lily this way from the start, I might have been moved. But now, all I felt was that he was being hypocritical it was just like back then-he pushedaway and then embraced Lily.

Many people were about to leave, but now they stood at the door, eager to watch the unfold Lily's face flushed with embarrassment, and she immediately invoked lan's name.

"Your grandpa told you to take good care of me. Don't forget that if my mood is affected, it could impact your entire Harmon family." She didn't explicitly say she was pregnant, but with her tone and gestures, it wasn't hard for everyone to guess. The murmurs on the onlookers began immediately.

"lan said that? Could Libreally be moving up the ranks in the Harmon family*** "Probably not. Mr. Harmon is here to pick up Eva Maybe Lily's just making things up?" "But what if she is pregnant? Look at the way she's holding her back" Lily was actually very slim, and holding her back Eke that didn't give off any real indication of pregnancy. But she had been doing it all day, clearly wanting everyone to know she was pregnant and that it was toenard's child.

Leonard grabbed her by the arm and led her outside while pullingalong as well. At the end of the hallway, he turned and glared at Lily.

"I've told you before. If you behave yourself and give birth to the child, you'll have nothing to worry about for the rest of your life. But don't start causing trouble! "If you dare stir up trouble again, or if you mention this to anyone, make sure every member of the Jane family dies he threatened 00 The look on his face as he said this was terrifying, and Lily Instinctively took a step back. She immediately had a pitiful expression, looking at Leonard with a grievance. "Leo." "Grandpa wants you back at the compatry, but I think you're better suited for rest Tomorrow, you'll report to the logists department." If Lily was reassigned to the logistics department, it would essentially be a demotion to a mental position. I couldn't help but glance at Leonard-he was truly ruthless.

He didn't give Lily chance to argue and draggeddownstairs. It wasn't until we were in the car that he seemed to calm down a bit.

"I think I saw that young poltwoman looking for you at lunch," he said.

"Yeah, we had a meal together." I knew he'd be aware if someone clooking for me, so I didn't plan to hide it. The Hamon family dared to take action, so they shouldn't be afraid of an investigation. I recounted the ents without embelishment. It was merelystating the facts Leonard pulled the car over to the side of the road and closed his eyes. After a moment, he opened them again, looking atwith a trace of sadness.

"Eva, don't hate me." "I don't hate you, really," I looked at him softly, and through the man he was now, I could almost see the student he once was, the young man who can around helping my parents. That was enough for mi
