Chapter 155
Lea said, “Mr. Andrews, you’re exaggerating. Everyone in your family is outstanding and no one canpare to them. My grandfather is very envious of you.”
ke immediately smiled. Soon, he reached the dining table. He sat at the head of the table, with Lea and Alfred on either side of him.
It was veryfortable to talk to Lea so ke spoke more. He asked her about Christian and the SAT exam. Finally, he questioned, “How did the interview go? Did it go well?”
Christian had called kest night and said his granddaughter was going to Conrad University for an interview.
“I passed.” Lea replied.
“Where is your eptance letter? Come, show it to me.” ke put down his utensils and held out his hand, looking interested.
It wasn’t easy to enter Conrad University. Lea was quite the genius. ke’s eyes were filled with expectation and admiration toward a genius.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.
I haven’t gotten it yet,” Lea replied casually.
ke paused. For a moment, he didn’t know what <b>to </b>do. His expression turned cold unconsciously, and his sharp eyes were filled with scrutiny.
ke was very clear about the admission process for Conrad University because he was a member of the school board. Furthermore, the Andrews family was also thergest shareholder of the firms under Conrad University.
If Lea didn’t get the eptance letter, it meant she did not meet the criteria for admission and wasn’t epted.
‘But why would Lea lie to me?” ke wondered. His impression of Lea plummeted. ‘Did shee to beg me to pull strings for her so the school could ept her?”
Conrad University’s admission requirements were very high, and the possibility of entering through connections was even slimmer. However, it was different for ke. There was nothing he could not do.
But ke could not mention it first. After all, Lea was the oneing to him for help. He had to
put on airs.
Lea knew what ke was thinking. She did not exin and focused on eating. If she told the truth, ke would not believe her. Instead, it would make things even more awkward.

When Alfred heard that Lea did not get the eptance letter, he could not help but look at her in surprise. Seeing Lea so calm, he was relieved.
Lea would not lie. Moreover, with her capability, Conrad University would beg her toe to their school eventually.
Alfred focused on his food too.
In the end, it was ke who was bored from waiting. He tapped his fork on his te and looked at Lea curiously. He thought, “Why aren’t you talking? Go on. Say something.
Lea was silent. She felt the intensity of ke’s stare and, having no choice, remarked, “The food is delicions.”
ke was bewildered. Then, he saw Lea lower her head and focused on eating again.
ke looked at his grandson, who was also focused on eating. ke asked with a probing gaze, “Have you been staying in Vaporleon City recently?
Alfred looked up at ke, knowing his grandfather had ulterior motives. “Sure.”
ke blinked. He thought, ‘What does that mean? Is that a yes or no?”
ke was about to speak again, but Alfred immediately continued to eat with relish. For a moment, ke was actually at a loss of words.
Then, ke looked at Lea. She still did not mention Conrad University to him.
During this time, Alfred looked at ke repeatedly and dismissed the idea of confessing the rtionship he had with Lea.
After the meal, Lea and Alfred were full. Only then did ke realize that he had only eaten a little and was even hungrier than before.
Not long after the meal, Alfred let Lea leave.
Lea said to ke, “Mr. Andrews, I’m leaving now. Bye.”
Lea knew ke looked down on her. In her previous life, she had achieved so much and helped Andrews Group be one of the top tenpanies in the world. Although she was married to Milton, ke still looked down on her. In the end, ke had looked down on her background.
However, Lea still respected ke because of Alfred.
ke asked, “You’re leaving?” He wondered, ‘You’re not gonna ask me to help you get into Conrad University?
Yeah.” Lea nodded obediently.

ke and Alfred stood in the hall and watched Lea go to the parking lot.

Alfred really wanted to, but he appeared indifferent He knew what his grandfather was thinking.
As ke was close to Christian, he could treat Lea like <b>a </b>granddaughter. However, ke would not want Lia to have anything to do with his grandchildren. The Berry family was not qualified.
Alfred didn’t want to cause trouble for Lea now, so he acted distant.
When Lea walked into the car park, a ck Rolls–Royce drove in.
Milton was in the car. He looked up and saw a sh of white. He was stunned and.couldn’t look
away<b>.</b>
The woman’s figure was slender and graceful. She had long, soft hair. Under the sunlight, she glowed.
Milton only saw her profile. The woman had delicate facial features. She was clean and otherworldly, like a fairy.
One nce was enough to make Milton fall in love,
“Stop the car,” Milton said urgently.
The driver was Milton’s aide, Thomas Cox. Thomas was shocked. He had been working for Milton for more than ten years, but this was the first time he had seen Milton so anxious and flustered. He braked at once and stopped in the middle of the road.
Bang.
Milton pushed the door open, got out, and hurried over.
The closer Milton got, the faster his heart raced. His breathing became heavy, and his heart felt like it was about to jump out of his chest. He had never felt this way.
Milton was only halfway to the car when Lea got in and mmed the door shut.
The Mercedes–Benz reversed out of the parking lot, turned a corner, and headed out of the car park. Craig had just elerated when a figure suddenly appeared before the car.
“Fuck!” Craig hurriedly stepped on the brakes.

Lea stared at the dark figure.
The dark custom–made suit made Milton look tall and straight. His hair was slicked back and his well–defined face appeared lovingly sculpted.
Milton’s brows were slightly furrowed. There was even a wrinkle between his brows. It made him look sharp. His deep eyes shone like obsidian.
Milton was like a scorching hot iron that pierced Lea’s heart and soul.
Lea did not expect to meet Milton here, nor did she expect him to stop her car.
“Drive on.” Lea’s voice was hoarse and sharp. There was a yearning in her order that she could not detect.
“Stop. Stop right now.” Milton had already approached them. He was not afraid that the car would run him down at all. The car wasn’t going fast, and the driver would not dare to hit him.
However, Craig could not refuse Lea’s order. The car that had slowed down suddenly elerated. and drove diagonally past Milton.
In front of Lea’s car was the Rolls–Royce Phantom parked in the middle of the road. Fortunately, the road was wide enough. Lea’s car drove past the Rolls–Royce Phantom from the side and quickly shot out the gate.
Craig heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at Lea through the rearview mirror.
Lea’s eyes were wide and bloodshot. Her entire body was trembling. Even her teeth were chattering. She was filled with hatred and fear.
Craig was shocked. After all, Lea had dared to take a bullet and stab her enemy’s heart without blinking.
Craig didn’t know why Lea was like this. He was at a loss and was about to stop the car.
“Don’t stop.” It was anothermand from Lea.
Craig had no choice but to drive on.
The car gradually drove away, leaving Kentside Garden behind.
Lea looked at the rearview mirror. Her gaze became blurry. Only then did she slowly find her breath and force herself to calm down.
When Alfred brought Lea here, he told her ke was the only one in the family residence.
Lea did not expect Milton to appear suddenly and risk his life to stop their car. She also hadn’t expected her emotions to be so raw, so out of control. She’d thought she’d be able to keep them

Fortunately, Lea wasn’t driving. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to control herself and would have. run Milton down.
Through the rearview mirror, Craig watched as the redness in Lea’s eyes gradually receded. Her face returned to normal, but under her long eyshes, her dark eyes gleamed icily. Her silence was terrifying, like the calm before a storm.
