Chapter 2097


    "You win.” Leah admitted defeat. "You are so good to me, George. Sometimes, I don''t even know


    what to do about that."


    George cleared his throat in embarrassment and changed the subject." Have you made up with


    your parents?"


    "I guess! They''ve made a lot of changes for my sake, which means that they care about me after all.


    Besides, they promised that they won''t make me marry someone I don''t like."

    Leah had leaped into the river because she had been forced to do so, but she had benefited from it


    in the end. Had that not happened, her broken rtionship with her parents would never have


    healed so quickly.


    "So are you just going to work here for a while and go back to your parents?" George asked.


    Leah could not help but chuckle. "Why are you asking? You don''t want me to leave?"


    George blushed and said, "No. That''s not it. You can go if you want to..."


    "Are you lying? Look at how flushed you are. It''s not embarrassing that you like me."


    George had not expected her to be so forward and turned to leave.


    Leah burst outughing as she watched him leave. It was amusing to see such a strong man get


    embarrassed by a few words she said.


    After that, she gave it some thought. She did think about going back to her parents after she made


    peace with them, but she did not want to leave La and George, so she had decided to continue


    working in Aryadelle. As for whether she was going to stay permanently, that depended on George.


    Lightning struck across the sky, its light piercing through the window, lighting up the bedroom. The


    thunder that followed woke Elliot.


    He opened his eyes and looked outside the window.


    The clouds had gathered along with the storm and the rain was washing through the window.


    "Snap!"


    Avery turned on the lights.


    "The weather today is horrible." She rubbed her eyes and checked the time. "It''s eight in the


    morning. Are you hungry?"


    Elliot gazed outside the window dazedly.


    She got out of bed and walked toward the window to open the curtains so that they could see


    outside.


    "Elliot, I''ll go outter to get you a new phone once the rain stops. I didn’t check the weather report


    yesterday and wasn''t expecting a rainstorm," she mumbled.


    "Just stay home." He got out of bed as well." I''m a little hungry now. Let''s go have breakfast!"


    "Sure. I will check the weather report. The rain can''tst the whole day." She went back to the


    nightstand and grabbed her phone to check for the weather report, which indicated that the rain


    would stop at ten in the morning.


    As expected, the rain stopped at around nine.


    Avery and her bodyguard went out to buy a new phone for Elliot, and shortly after, Ben came over to


    visit Elliot.


    He had beening over to check on Elliot every day and did not care if Elliot did not speak to him


    at all.


    "Where’s Avery?"


    "She is out to buy a new phone for Mr. Foster," the nanny said.


    "You wanted a new phone, Elliot? You should have told me. I can buy one for you!" he said in


    excitement. "I went past an electronics store on my way here."


    "How can I tell you to get a phone for me when I didn''t have a phone to contact you with?"


    "Haha! You could always contact me using Avery''s phone!" Ben had not expected Elliot to talk to


    him. "I was nning to go back if you won''t talk to me—”


    "You should go back,” Elliot interrupted him and said.
