Leah gladly accepted her invitation.
"Ms. Kennedy, why don't you cto my place? We didn't get to show you around the last tyou came!"
"Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"
"Just come, Ms. Kennedy! Uncle George is on rest today so | can't go outside. My mommy said that Uncle George has to be by my
side if | want to go outside."
"George is the only bodyguard in the house?
"Of course, not! But | like him the most. Without him to protect me, | don't like to go out."
"Alright, then! | will cto find you." Leah felt honored that Layla had invited her.
One hour later, 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. " Layla toldthat you are off duty today."
"Yeah. After she invited you, Robert dragged her out to play so she toldto cpick you up," George said while taking the fruit
basket off her hands.
"Isn't this too much trouble for you? If
Layla is not free today, | 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 | can cback to pick you up with a car?" George was used to walking at a faster pace and had
completely 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."
"Layla 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 na higher price."
Leah's composure shattered at George's words. Feeling a lump in her throat, tears instantly filled her eyes.
"She knows iin your parents are

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 Layla will be able to give you all of that." George felt
a little shaken that Leah was sobbing.
"George, | ha yself." Leah could
not hold peck he tears, so she
turned arpynd and faced George.

The confusion on George's face was instantly replaced by a cold expression. He gritted his teeth and waited for her to continue.
