Chapter 932: Since marrying Bruce, Leah had moved in with him.
But tonight, alone in their shared apartment, she felt a strange unease.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Sonia called, Leah was tipsy and getting ready to go to bed.
"Leah, you have to save your father!" Sonia's tearful words snapped Leah out of her daze. "What happened?" Sonia, choking on her emotions, explained the whole situation. "What do we do now?" If word of Corey's arrest spread by morning, it would be a devastating blow to the already struggling Burgess family.
On top of that, they couldn't survive a police investigation.
Leah thought for a moment. "I'll call Andromache right now. She can help. With her influence, even the police will have to back off." "Okay!" Sonia responded quickly.
When Andromache picked up Leah's call, a flicker of disdain crossed her face. Her voice was cold and uncaring. "Leah, it's not that I don't want to help, but this mess is your own doing. You were careless. There's nothing I can do." Leah realized that the Burgess family was her lifeline. If anything happened to them, she would be finished too. At such a critical moment, she knew that losing the support of the Burgess family would leave her without anyone in the Ashton family to turn to.
"Andromache, this is clearly Corrine's plan to frthe Burgess family! My father did nothing wrong. You have to find a way to save him!" Leah's voice shook as she spoke. "Corrine has connections with so many powerful people. She must be working with the police to set up the Burgess family! You've got to help, Andromache!" Andromache's face tightened with irritation. "Leah, you have to do the right things and make wise decisions. If anyone catches you in a weak position, you're done for. Don't you understand that basic rule?" "But Corrine has no proof," Leah responded.

Leah spoke clearly. "Corrine's too cocky and has plenty of enemies, especially the Becker family. Danna's engagement got broken off because of her, and Danna was sent overseas. The Becker family's business is struggling. They won't let her off the hook for this. With Nate gone from Lyhaton, Corrine's lost her backup. This is the perfect chance for the Becker family to get their revenge."
Andromache quickly focused on the key point. She put her wine glass down and leaned forward. "Nate's not in Lyhaton?" This was a golden opportunity!
Without Nate around, dealing with Corrine would be much easier. “I'll talk to the police." Andromache said. "Get the footage from the nearby cameras. You know what to do after that."
