Chapter 335: Know Leo’s Love Interests
“Geez, he is so secretly…” Harper chuckled as she saw Leo’s back vanish from her line of sight. Then, she glanced at Sam and Stefan.
“Do you guys know who the woman Leo’s like!? Spill the tea, guys.” Harper asked.
Sam shook his head while continuing to tidy the desk. Try to ignore the question.
Harper chuckled. She looks at Stefan.
“How about you, Stefan?”
Stefan, who had just put down his cutlery, frowned when he saw Harper’s curious gaze.
“What is it?” Stefan asked, clueless about Harper’s question. Earlier, he was too busy eating and uninterested in their discussion.
“Do you know Leo’s girlfriend?”
Stefan’s expression clearly showed reluctance. “Leo has a girlfriend? Since when?”
Harper frowned, doubting Stefan didn’t know about it. She could see he seemed to be hiding something. She didn’t give up; she turned to Bella. “You ask him…”
“Stefan, you know about it, right?”
Stefan took a deep sigh while looking Bella in the eyes. He didn’t have a chance to lie to her. He could only be honest, “Yes, I know.”
“Who?”
“His secretary,” Stefan said, feeling sorry for Leo.
Sam and he were aware of Leo’s feelings for Dana, but Leo never had the courage to express his feelings to Dana; he only often talked to them about her.
Bella and Harper were surprised to hear that.
“Which one?” Bella asked curiously. She knew Leo had so few female secretaries who helped him.
“The one with pixie-cut hair…”
Instantly, a faint smile appeared on Bella’s lips. She knew who that woman was because only one secretary had a pixie-style haircut.
“Alright, thanks for the info, Stefan,” Bella said while standing from her seat.
“Bella, you know about that?” Harper asked, matching Bella’s step toward the elevator.
“Yes, I know about that.” Bella glanced at the curious Harper. “Let’s go. I will show you who the lucky girl is.”

The next day.
Isaac Donovan decided to meet his son Lucas Donovan and Henry at the Starlight apartment in the city center.
He owned this property and usually stayed there when visiting the city.
When moving to this city, Isaac didn’t choose this place; he preferred his house at Little Heaven to live with Bella and Dax because he knew his great-grandson needed a lot of space to run around.
Isaac Donovan sipped his green tea while looking calmly at his son and grandson sitting across from him. Since they arrived, they only exchanged greetings, making him impatient to wait any longer.
They sat in the spacious living room for about ten minutes. Still, Lucas Donovan had not yet mentioned what he wanted to discuss.
Isaac put his teacup on the table and narrowed his eyes at his foolish son.

“Lucas, this is my nap time. You should talk now, or I will go to sleep,” he said.
Isaac’s sharp gaze was enough to make Lucas snap. However, before Lucas could say anything, Isaac continued, “Talk now, or leave my house—”
Lucas clenched his hand into a tight fist before he spoke.
“Father, we very badly need you in East City. Please, you must return to East City. We have serious problems with the company…”
Lucas began, expressing his thoughts about the Donovan Group. His older brother, Jacob Donovan, had asked him to discuss this with their father.
He informed his father that his younger brother, Thomas Donovan, might face imprisonment or have to pay a hefty fine to the government for bribing officials to secure a business project.
Lucas also mentioned how the value of their company’s shares had fallen to the point that several shareholders were selling their shares at the lowest price, but no one wanted to buy.
Isaac listened in silence, trying to maintain his ease and calm to prevent himself from showing interest.
“Father, if you don’t return to help us, then I believe there will be no more Donovan Group in a few months.”
Lucas’s voice sounded shaky. He was too emotional, thinking their family company would end.
When Lucas was about to continue, he noticed his father looked calm. There was no clue he was sad or angry that the company he built was about to go bankrupt.
‘Why does Father look so relaxed? Why doesn’t he seem to care about what happened to the company?’ Lucas thought. Just as he was about to ask, Isaac spoke.
“Why are you telling me about that? Did you forget I no longer have authority in the company?” Isaac said calmly, shocking Lucas and Henry. They didn’t expect him to refuse to help this fast.
Henry was utterly stunned. This was the first time he had seen his grandfather refuse to help the company; he didn’t even care that his youngest son was facing prison time.
“Grandpa, even though you no longer work at the company, how can you be indifferent to the company you built yourself?” Henry couldn’t help but ask.
“Oh, my dear Henry… your grandfather will soon leave this mortal world. So, I no longer care about worldly matters like company, wealth, or whatever. I will let you, young people, handle these matters. Do you understand?”
Henry, “…”
“Grandpa, why do you say that? You…you are still young and healthy…” Henry was speechless.
“Hahaha, thank you for your compliment, Henry. But your Grandpa is no longer useful. Even if I return to East City, I won’t be able to help the company…” Isaac said while gazing at Lucas.
Isaac’s smile slowly faded before he said, “Don’t expect anything from me, Lucas. I won’t be able to help you or your brothers…”
Lucas’s expression hardened upon hearing that. Just by looking at how serious his father was, Lucas knew seeking help from him was a dead end.
However, he needed to try what his older brother asked him to do.
He sighed deeply before saying, “Father, my older brother mentioned wanting to borrow some of your property to help pay off our debts and help our younger brother…”
No matter how angry he was at hearing his son’s words, Isaac Donovan tried to control his emotions and silently took a deep breath before speaking.
“You and your brother are so greedy!”
