NovelEnglishLeah said, "Then stop eating! He's asking you to have a meal with him. It's not just about food!"
Mrs. Kennedy said, "Okay, | understand. I'll get your father to agree to it."
"Hmm! We'll talk when we meet." Leah hung up.
In the courtyard, Elliot had also hung up. Since he had asked Mr. Kennedy to have dinner with him outside, he had to leave the
house.
"I'll cwith you all." Avery took her bag and walked over to Elliot.
Elliot said, "Didn't you say that you were tired from work? Why don't you stay at hand rest."
"I'm not tired now." Avery was spirited. "Have you chosen the restaurant? You should quickly make a reservation! It's dinnertime
now. The restaurant might be full."
Elliot returned George's phone to him before taking his own phone out to make a reservation.
After making the reservation, they got into their respective cars and headed to the restaurant.
"George, talk less later. Eat more," Leah instructed when she got in the car with him. "I think Mr. Foster wants to help you." They

"Of course he wants to help me! I'm bad at talking!" George said. "But | think he speaks harshly, too. He often makes Avery mad."
Leah was enthusiastic. "Elliot could only have achieved all he has now because his emotional intelligence is definitely higher than
an ordinary person's. He might make Avery angry, but that's because they are husband and wife..."
"Mr. Foster is actually even ruder to other people. | don't think a person's success has anything to do with their emotional
intelligence. It's mainly based on their ability to earn money." George had been working with Elliot all this while. He had strong
feelings about him. "Hayden's temper is even weirder. He doesn't even talk much..."
"He talks less, so he makes fewer mistakes, too. You make more mistakes by talking more," Leah mercilessly criticised.
George felt that his wife was right, so he shut up.
When they reached the restaurant, the six of them took their seats.
Soon, the servers began serving food.
Mrs. Kennedy was a little stunned at the speed of the food being served. "This restaurant serves food quickly!"
George said, "That's because Mr. Foster is a valued customer of this restaurant. No matter what the comes, they serve him
first."
Mrs. Kennedy responded awkwardly. "Oh."
Leah kicked George under the table, asking him not to rush to speak first.
George immediately lowered his head, picked up his glass, and drank swater.
"Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy, George has been working underfor many years. He is a great person. He is just bad at talking.
Sometimes, he says things that might offend others," Elliot said, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
Mrs. Kennedy nodded.
"| can see that George is not a bad person. He treats Leah well, too. He just isn't that likable. | feel a little stuck inside. My anger
can't be soothed!" Mrs. Kennedy spoke honestly. "Last time, Leah almost died. And, because of that, we have had to cto terms
with a lot of things. If it weren't for the circumstances, we would have long since taken her back with us. We would not have let her
continue staying here, suffering. Mr. Foster, to tell you the truth... Our family is not short of money."
Elliot could fully understand their feelings.
After Mrs. Kennedy finished talking, he said calmly, "George owns a mansion worth four and a half million dollars at Third Ring. He

mansion's. Aside from that, George has been lettinghandle his incall these years. Tonight, on the way here, | asked my
financial consultant about his estate. He toldthat George's fortune has doubled tenfold."
Leah and her parents were all speechless.
Leah took her phone out and messaged George. [| thought you only had a mansion. Since when have you had another flat?]
[I don't have a flat. Mr. Foster is lying to your parents.]
