    Chapter 159 His Only Weakness


    The bodyguard nodded. "If you don''t believe me, you can call to confirm.''


    Be waved her hand. She believed him. After all only the Sawyer family could pull off


    something like this. She had saved Daniel''s life on the operating table, and now, Leonard had


    saved hers.


    They brought her to a luxurious vi by the river. It wasn''t Sawyer Manor, which left Be puzzled. "Where is this?"


    The bodyguard replied, "This is Mr. Sawyer''s private residence. He had something to take care of but will be back in about half an hour. He told me to make sure you don''t wander off on


    Your own


    and to have you wait for him here."


    Feeling a bit uneasy, Be stepped into the living room and sat down. An older woman, her hair already streaked with white, brought over a tray of fruit and tea.


    "It''s the first time I''ve seen Mr. Sawyer bring someone home. Don''t be shy, make yourself at


    home."


    Be noticed the woman had misunderstood the situation. "Oh no, it''s not like that... We''re just friends. My brother is one of his good buddies.


    However, the woman didn''t seem to take in her exnation. She simply gave Be a knowing smile before walking away.


    Be let out a breath, feeling awkward. Once she was alone, she took the opportunity to examine the vi. The design was sleek and modern, with a touch of understated luxury. It was exactly what she expected from Leonard''s taste. True to the bodyguard''s word, Leonard arrived exactly half an hourter.


    The moment she saw him, Be rushed over, asking, "What''s going on? Who were those people?"This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Leonard''s expression was serious. "They were sent by the Yates family. They''re trying to use you to ckmail Dominic into not returning because you''re his only weakness."


    Be understood immediately. She was the only person Dominic had left who could be


    considered family, making her his greatest weakness.


    She asked angrily, "What do they want by keeping Dominic away? What are they trying to achieve?"


    Leonard nced at her and replied, "They want to force him into a marriage."


    Be froze in disbelief. "They think they can force him into marriage? Do they really believe a forced marriage will work? Are they nning to keep him imprisoned for life? Chaptér 159 His Only Wen


    "Or will they let him go after the wedding? The moment he''s free, do they really think he''ll acknowledge that marriage? It''s ridiculous!"


    Leonard exined further, "That''s why they''ll do whatever it takes to keep you under their control, using you to pressure Dominic until he finally gives in. For now, it''s safer for you to stay here. Don''t go back to the hospital. You''ll be more secure under my watch." Hearing his words, Be''s heart sank. Using her to ckmail Dominic indefinitely? If she were captured by the Yates family, she wouldn''t be free until Dominic gave in.


    Knowing his stubborn nature, she could be locked away forever. Worse, if they grew tired of waiting, they might just decide to kill her...


    Piecing it all together, Be asked, "How long do I need to stay here? Give me a rough idea so that I can let the hospital know I''ll be away for a while."


    Leonard sighed. "You won''t be safe until Dominic returns. Until this whole situation is resolved, I can''t give you an exact timeline. However, make yourselffortable while you''re here. You can treat this ce as Miller Manor.


    "I''ll have someone buy whatever you need, including clothes and personal items... You don''t have to worry about a thing. The only downside is, you can''t leave."


    Be nodded. "I understand. Thank you, Leonard."
