His Eagle Eyes on Me

Chapter 1903

Leah paused and noticed that Mrs. Cooper, the bodyguard, and even Robert were glaring at her and she said sheepishly, " Maybe |

was being too blunt, Layla, but | really want you to focus on your studies. | experienced the sthing as you did when | was little.

My parents got divorced and | grew up with my father... Do you know Natalie Jennings?" Her words took an unexpected turn toward

the end.

The wariness on all their faces instantly turned into curiosity and shock the moment she mentioned Natalie.

"lI do!" Layla said. "Do you know her as well?

Leah grinned shyly. "She is my cousin."

The room fell into silence.

After the visit, Leah called Natalie and went over to her house.

"I told you not to work as a teacher but you won't listen." Natalie poured Leah a glass of water. "| forgot to tell you that I'm not on

good terms with Elliot and his family.

Going to his house and mentioning my nwas a stupid move."

"I thought Layla would be more inclined to listen toif | mentioned your name," Leah said with a vacant expression.

"Layla thinks that I'm standing in the way of her parents getting back together, so she hates me. She would not even letinto

the house," Natalie said in a cold voice. "I have treated that girl with extra care before to make a good impression, so | didn't

expect her to treatlike an enemy as soon as her mother cback. I've finally realized that one needs to be strong so that

others don't look down on them," Natalie added.

"I see!" Leah had not been close to Natalie prior to this. The two had only gotten in contact with one another because Leah had

returned to Aryadelle to work, and their parents had urged them to look after each other. "Natalie, for someone as brilliant as you

are, you will surely be able to find a great man. Forget about guys like Elliot, who are divorced and have children!"

"Yeah, I've thought it through. | am just going to rely on myself from now on." She studied Leah's face. "You've probably

gotten in a lot of trouble today during your visit, haven't you? Layla can be really rude."

"Maybe it's because she lacks the company of her parents! Her parents have gone overseas again."

Natalie narrowed her eyes. "Overseas?

Where to?" "I don’t know. I've tried calling Elliot but his phone is switched off," she said when suddenly, her phone started ringing.

It was from Elliot.

Leah immediately answered the call." Hello, Mr. Foster. | am Layla’s class teacher for this term. My nis Leah Kennedy."

"I'm sorry for missing your call. | just got off the plane," he said.

Natalie snatched Leah's phone :e'

"I was just at your house for a visit to have a chat with Layla. There's something that | would like to discuss with you or Layla's

mother. May | know when you will be free? " Leah grabbed her phone back and said.

Avery overheard her and whispered to

Elliot, "Layla's teacher? What did she say?"

"She paid Layla a visit... She's saying that she needs to talk to us," Elliot lowered his voice and explained.

Their whispers were caught by both Natalie and Leah.

"Hello, Ms. Kennedy. Layla's mother and | are not in the country at the moment, and we won't be returning any tsoon. If there's

something you need to talk to us about, you may do so on the phone."

Natalie immediately walked away and began her plotting, now that she knew Elliot was gone.
