Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) -
Chapter 350
Chapter 350 Unforgivable
eto live my life as normal without getting harassed by Leonard or having to endure
After Amella got arrested, my life became a lot more relaxed. I was able to live my Amelia's trouble-making tendencies,
But the project was progressing rapidly. My body was unable to cope with the worldload, so I needed to go to the hospital every now and then.
In the end, the doctor ordered me to keep my work hours under control. Since then, Jack stopped informing me of the meeting schedule.
Crystall and Glenn were the main contributors to my studio. They were quick to take over most of the design work.
That was how business at my studio began booming, We earned quite a lot of profit from a few minor projects. Everyone was so elated that they were willing to take more overtime shifts. After dropping me off at campus one last time, Jack never came to
o visit me. We often saw each other at the company.
He'd still bring me strawberry milk every time. It was just that he never talked to me.
I could tell that he was throwing a tantrum, but I didn't understand why.
Astrid kept telling me that Jack liked me, but I refused to reciprocate his feelings. Having lived for more than 20 years so far, my only romantic experience came from my time with Leonard.
Truth be told, I was terrified. I had fallen in love too deeply with Leonard in the past, which resulted in me hating his guts more than anything in this
world.
Jack's refusal to speak to me made my life a lot easier, to be honest. I just wanted to recuperate and focus my efforts on earning money. Those two life. goals were enough to give me the motivation to live for a very long time.
But I was still quite astonished when I received a phone call from Caleb. The small talk barely lasted for a few moments before his voice began to crack
"Eva, you have no idea how much trouble Leonard is in because of Amelia. The cases in Mavonia add up to compensation that's worth tens of millions of dollars. Granduncle lan was so pissed that he got hospitalized.
"Right now, the entire family is in chaos. Uncle Bob and his family keep insulting Leonard every chance they get. Why did my family become like this?" Caleb sounded so depressed and lost. It seemed like he couldn't accept the current situation at home.
Then again, he was a few years younger than me. Not to mention, he had been studying in the university all this time. He most likely didn't have much experience when it came to the dark side of society.
Honestly speaking, I knew that Mr. Harmon Senior would definitely get mad. Tens of millions of dollars might not be much to the Harmons, but it was no meager sum too.
The Harmons kept a rather low profile. They weren't exactly wasteful when it came to money either. Furthermore, Leonard's assets weren't that much, to begin with.
Caleb even said the sum was meant to be compensation for the platform's company, Countless streamers had banded together to sue Amelia, so no one knew how long this case would go on.
Originally, Harmon Group still intended to dive into the overseas markets. Now, they lost the chance to do so permanently.
Leonard and Amelia's incident went viral. Those two were now the laughingstock of the year.
"Eva, all the shareholders keep demanding for the president to be replaced. They're also worried that Leonard might use the company's funds for the compensation. Leonard's even planning to sell the place you and he used to live in." My grip on my phone tightened slightly at the revelation. "He's planning to sell the penthouse?"
We had bought the penthouse when we got married. The decor and furnishings there were done according to our preferences.
The penthouse was filled with painful and amazing memories. But now, Leonard wanted to sell it.
I didn't even have that many memories with Leonard, to begin with. My necklace was broken by Lily; I had returned my wedding ring to Leonard. Now, the penthouse we lived in was about to be sold
1 let out a small cough. "That's his penthouse. He has the
the right to do whatever he wants with it."
"Eva, Leonard said you're... involved in this incident. You'll forgive him, right? At the end of the day, Amelia is still pregnant. I've already heard about what happened to Leonard ton. He won't be able to have any kids in the next few years. Can you-" "Sorry, but I can't forgive him."
I couldn't just let Leonard and Amelia off the hook out of respect for them, nor could 1 do that simply because of Amelia's unborn child,
My voice was cool and impassive. I didn't feel anything at all.
"The platform's company and the other companies have banded together to sue Amelia. I have no right to drop the case. The part where I'm involved doesn't require that much compensation to begin with I'm sorry, Caleb, but I can't do anything at all. "That's it for now. Stop begging to me on their behalf
I hung up on Caleb before he could say anything else.

I wasn't a saint. I'd never forgive them.
