Chapter 333 How Many Children Did You Give Birth To

When Arissa heard who it was, she was filled with a sense of hostility.

“I’m sorry. I don’t think there’s a need for us to meet.”

With that, she ended the call.

Why is Danna’s lawyer calling me? Is she trying to threaten me again?

The next moment, her phone rang again. Caught by surprise, she ended the call without a second

thought.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed the hatred welling inside her before returning to the office.

Before she sat down, she received a message from Leon.

It read: Hello, Ms. York, my client would like to speak to you. Can you meet us outside?

My, my. How persistent. They must be crazy if they think I would agree to meet them.

Arissa snorted in response. She didn’t want to have any interaction with Danna, for she wasn’t going to

back down with regard to the lawsuit.

Consequently, she blacklisted Leon’s number.

Sensing something amiss, Benjamin asked, “What happened?”

Arissa looked at him. “I got a call from Danna’s lawyer.”

Benjamin lifted his brows in surprise. “What for?”

“He said that Danna has something to tell me.” Arissa didn’t mind sharing with Benjamin.

“Just ignore her,” Benjamin advised.

Arissa nodded before steadying her emotions and settling back into work.

When Leon failed to contact Arissa, he had no choice but to get back to Danna.

Given that the case was now handled by Benjamin’s legal team, the only way Danna could turn it

around was to work on Arissa, which she instructed Leon to do.

In fact, she was confident that her strategy would succeed.

Consequently, Arissa was surprised when Leon came to see her straight.

After buying some pastries in the afternoon to satisfy Benjamin’s craving, a stranger stood in her way

when she was leaving the shop.

“Ms. York!”

With his briefcase in hand, Leon handed his name card over. “I’m Leon Landon, can you spare me a

few minutes of your time?”

Upon realizing who he was, Arissa scowled.

“Didn’t I reject your request in the morning? Why are you still here to see me?”

“It’s just something that I feel you should know. Or else, you might regret it.”

Being professional, Leon added, “If you don’t feel comfortable, you can get your lawyer to come.”

Leon stared at Arissa earnestly, confident that she wouldn’t do it.

Arissa furrowed her brows.

“Danna and I have nothing to talk about.” She couldn’t wait for Danna to suffer the punishment she

deserved.

“It won’t hurt just to listen, right? Whatever you want to do after that is your choice. I won’t interfere.”

Arissa scrutinized Leon. Even though he was sent by Danna, he did have a point.

After all, she wouldn’t lose anything just by listening.

With Benjamin’s bodyguard nearby, she figured Leon was no threat to her, especially since they were

in public.

“Fine. We’ll talk inside.” Arissa gave him a look.

“Sure.” Leon ushered her in cordially.

Both of them entered the pastry shop, as it was more convenient to talk inside than on the street.

“I still have to return to work. Whatever it is you want to say, make it quick.” Arissa hurried him while

putting down her things.

After nodding in acknowledgment, Leon ordered two glasses of lemonade.

Only then did he get right on to business.

“Danna didn’t tell me everything. All she wants me to do is to pass you a message.”

Arissa knitted her brows. “What is it?”

If there really was something to say, why didn’t he tell me over the phone? Instead, he insists on

meeting in person.

“She said, ‘Arissa, do you remember how many children you gave birth to?’“

Arissa’s heart instantly sank as a sense of dread crept into her.

What does Danna mean?

“Is that all?” Arissa gave Leon an unsettled look.

Leon nodded. “That’s it. That’s what she wanted me to tell you. I’m not sure what it really means

though, since she didn’t give me the details. But based on the information I have, you have five

children. Could it be that you have more than five?”

Arissa clenched her fists as the words ‘more than five’ looped in her mind.
