Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 319

Leah's heart skipped a beat from this sound. She had only met Master Harris a few times. When they met each other back then, the atmosphere was not exactly pleasant either. Even so, they were not at loggerheads with each other like what was happening now.

What exactly happened?

Did she do something to make Grandpa Harris mad? Or did the Jones family or Jones Group do something to offend Grandpa Harris, hence he was taking his anger out on her?

"I am more experienced than you. You think you can fool me with that petty scheme of yours?!" Master Harris was almost completely yelling. "Do you take me for a fool?!"

He sounded extremely serious when he said those words.

Leah wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. She still had no idea what was going on. The more she said, the more mistakes she would make. It would be wiser for her to hold her tongue.

"You feel ashamed that someone is staring at you?" Master Harris asked her again.

Before she could answer, he ordered Ken. "Go and make this young man a cup of tea. Make sure he sits on the couch and takes a good look at this!"

He emphasized the last four words in particular.

Leah frowned and turned to look at the employee.

Meanwhile, the employee’s legs were completely useless and could not even move under her and Master Harris’ stare. Ken grabbed him by the collar straight away and lifted him onto the sofa, then ordered one of his subordinates to make a cup of tea.

"Can I ask why you’re doing this, Grandpa Harris?" As soon as Leah spoke, the bruise on her mouth would hurt when she stretched it. "Is there a misunderstanding between us?"

Master Harris rapped his cane on the ground abruptly and raised his voice. "A misunderstanding?"

As a man who had been in a high position for a long time, he had a dominating aura. The employee was so terrified that he nearly fell off the couch.

"Let me ask you a question first. Two years ago, was it your idea to take advantage of the news of the Jones and Harris family’s marriage alliance so that Jones Group could enter the electrical appliances market?" Master Harris asked.

Leah bit her lip and replied obediently, "I admit that it was my idea, but didn't you already talk to the Jones family about this a few days ago? Jones Group has made the corresponding compensations already."

"You just need to answer yes or no. There’s no need to talk a bunch of nonsense!" Master Harris snapped.

Leah frowned. Even so, she still responded “okay” in a soft voice.

"I'll ask you again, were you the one who told me about Sophia's fake pregnancy?" Master Harris asked.

Leah nodded, wanting to give a brief explanation but stopped herself from doing so after she recalled his castigation earlier.

Master Harris’s mouth was dry from all the talking. He picked up the tea and took a sip. As soon as the tea touched his lips, he turned his head and spat it all on the floor. "What is this?!"

"It’s..." Leah had just opened her mouth when he cut her off. "You don't need to answer!"

Leah's throat rolled a little. She was holding a document in her hand and was unconsciously crumpling up the edge of the paper. Her expression looked slightly awful.

Although the employee agreed that Master Harris had gone too far, he dared not say a word about it.

"I’d rather drink plain water than stuff like that. Go, pour me a glass of water!" Master Harris ordered Ken before looking at Leah again. "I will ask you again, you knew about Sophia’s fake pregnancy from the start?"

Leah had indeed suspected that Sophia was faking her pregnancy since the start. Sophia mentioned that her child was two months old now, but she had been admitted into the emergency room several times about a month ago.

Even if she was actually pregnant, she would not have been able to keep the baby either!

Therefore, she nodded.

"Sophia was speaking the truth after all!" Master Harris sprung up from the couch, layer upon layer of dark clouds enshrouded his face. "So you’re indeed the one who suggested that she fake her pregnancy!"

If Leah was the one who came up with the idea, then it would make perfect sense why she knew that Sophia was faking her pregnancy from the start!
