Chapter 2023


    Leah dly epted her invitation.


    "Ms. Kennedy, why don''t youe to my ce? We didn''t get to show you around thest time you


    came!"


    "Wouldn’t that be inappropriate?"


    "Juste, Ms. Kennedy! Uncle George is on rest today so I can''t go outside. My mommy said that


    Uncle George has to be by my side if I want to go outside."


    "George is the only bodyguard in the house?


    "Of course, not! But I like him the most. Without him to protect me, I don''t like to go out."


    "Alright, then! I wille to find you." Leah felt honored that La had invited her.


    One hourter, she arrived at the residential area where Elliot''s mansion was located with a fruit


    basket, and George was waiting at the entrance to pick her up.


    She was stunned when she saw George. " La told me that you are off duty today."


    "Yeah. After she invited you, Robert dragged her out to y so she told me toe pick you up,"


    George said while taking the fruit basket off her hands.


    "Isn''t this too much trouble for you? If


    La is not free today, I can just go home."


    "Just stay for a while since you are already here!" George strode off, leading the way.


    Leah picked up the pace to catch up with him.


    "George, can you wait up?" Leah was starting to sweat.


    He stopped and turned around to look at her with a frown. "Should I... carry you?”


    She stared at him in shock.


    "Maybe you can wait here, and I cane back to pick you up with a car?" George was used to


    walking at a faster pace and hadpletely forgotten that Leah had low stamina.


    She shook her head frantically, blushing." Just slow down. It''s the weekend and it’s not like we are


    in a hurry, so we don''t have to walk so fast."


    "La wants you to keep tutoring her. She will pay you so think of how much you want to charge


    first!" George slowed down." She wants to help you out, so you can name a higher price."


    Leah''sposure shattered at George''s words. Feeling a lump in her throat, tears instantly filled


    her eyes.


    "She knows that your parents are asking you for money =e";TIU? insists on helping you." George


    panicked slightly at the sight of her tears. "La has always been a gentle kid. You''re lucky that you


    know her."


    Leah turned around to wipe away her tears.


    "You don''t have to be so moved. Your parents want 1.5 million, and it''s not like La will be able to


    give you all of that." George felt a little shaken that Leah was sobbing.


    "George, I hate myself." Leah could not hold back her tears, so she turned around and faced


    George. "La has been nicer to me than my cousin and parents have ever been to me, yet I''ve


    been withholding important information from you..."


    The confusion on George''s face was instantly reced by a cold expression. He gritted his teeth


    and waited for her to continue.

    "What happened to Avery and Elliot in Ylore... I suspect that Natalie is behind it. I went to her ce


    before and she was talking to someone on the phone in her bedroom... I overheard her saying that


    she wanted help with extracting someone from Ylore, and she wasmanding that person to do


    her bidding... I wasn''t sure if it was her before, but the timing matches. After that, whenever my


    cousin talks about Elliot... she is really certain that Elliot is dead. She resents Elliot and Avery... so


    she is probably the one who did it."


    Leah felt relieved that she had finally confessed the truth.
