Even if she wonted to become o sugor boby or someone's lover, no one would wont her.
More thon thot, she didn't hove ony professionol skills, so she couldn't survive on her own. She hod nochoice but to exclusively depend on whot Bryce left in her nome.

She hod socrificed yeors of her youth oll for Bryce's inheritonce. Never in o million yeors did she thinkthot it would oll go to woste.
After some hesitotion, she osked, "Whot did you bring me here for? I just wonted to see Ion. I hove
something to tell him. Con't I even do thot?"
Upon heoring thot, Logon cut to the chose. "Ion doesn't wont to see you. Don't think obout opproochinghim. Your foce disgusts him." Then, Leah asked, "Ian's back, isn't he? He's in that hotel."
"Yeah, he is." Logan chose not to lie. "He came back to deal with the inheritance."
Leah's heart twinged at the mention of the inheritance.
Bryce actually had loads of inheritance and if she hadn't caused such a big scene in the end, she mighthave gotten a generous share, if not half of it.
However, things went south at the very last step, leading her to get almost nothing in the end.
She grew resentful as the thought crossed her. Her reputation had been soiled, and she was alreadygetting on in years. It would be impossible to find another rich man to live the rest of her life with.
Even if she wanted to become a sugar baby or someone's lover, no one would want her.
More than that, she didn't have any professional skills, so she couldn't survive on her own. She had nochoice but to exclusively depend on what Bryce left in her name.
It would be all right if he left her ample inheritance, but all she got was a measly amount. Worst of all, itwas to support Simon and her. Leah just couldn't turn the other cheek no matter what.
She had sacrificed years of her youth all for Bryce's inheritance. Never in a million years did she thinkthat it would all go to waste.
After some hesitation, she asked, "What did you bring me here for? I just wanted to see Ian. I havesomething to tell him. Can't I even do that?"
Upon hearing that, Logan cut to the chase. "Ian doesn't want to see you. Don't think about approachinghim. Your face disgusts him."
Unwilling to resign to fate, Leah retorted, "I won't go to him anymore after telling him what I have to say.But since he's hiding like this, of course I won't give up."
Logan snorted at that. "So what if you don't give up? Do you think you can still make a big scene withyour current situation?"
He took a gander at her plastered leg in the meantime. It seemed that she had suffered a serious fall.
Leah's face turned grim. His words had gotten to her, which was why her tone now became a littleharsh. "What do you mean I can't make a big scene? I'm going to denounce him online. I'm going touncover all his deeds and let his fans see what he's truly like."
Logan nodded at that. "Tell me, then—what is he truly like?"
What is he truly like? The question stumped Leah and she had trouble answering it.
To that, she opened her mouth a couple of times, her face a little stiff.
In Leah's impression, Ian acted practically as he seemed, at least toward her.
On the surface, he disdained her, and it was the same deep down. Then, he gave her the cold shoulderon the surface and in reality, he still gave her the cold shoulder.
Even when he was facing the cameras, he never showed any kindness toward her.
He seemed to have decided to turn against her and not give her any due respect like back when thetwo of them lived in the Morgan Residence.
So, even if Leah were to tell people Ian's true colors, it was still precisely as he acted.
Passersby came and went, and a few curious ones would look over at them. So, Logan raised his handafter some thought. "Take her away. Why waste my time when you can't even say anything useful?"
Taken aback, Leah hurriedly yelled, "Where are you taking me? Let me out! I want to get out of thecar!"
Meanwhile, the chauffeur went to the driver's seat while two bodyguards entered the car from her leftand right, sandwiching her in the middle.
Leah, on the other hand, was exhausted after having fussed about it for a long while. At that point, shecouldn't make another scene.
Logan didn't specifically say where to bring her, but these guys knew what their boss was thinking.
And so, they closed the doors, started the engine, and immediately took her away.
Leah was still wearing a hospital gown—she had probably sneaked out.
Hence, it was a little troublesome. They would have to send her back after 'taking care' of her, or Loganactually wanted to just chuck her to some random place.
He stood rooted to the spot for a moment before returning to the hotel.
The speech was already over by the time Logan got back to the engagement party.
Cindy and Ian were both somewhat sappy, crying as they stood on stage.
Even Sophia and Lola were wiping at their tears in their seats.
Logan grumbled at that, "F*ck, that b*tch wasted so much of my time."
