Lea said, “Mr. Andrews, you’re exaggerating. Everyone in your family is outstanding and no one cancompare to them. My grandfather is very envious of you.”

Blake immediately smiled. Soon, he reached the dining table. He sat at the head of the table, withLea and Alfred on either side of him.

It was very comfortable to talk to Lea so Blake spoke more. He asked her about Christian and theSAT exam. Finally, he questioned, “How did the interview go? Did it go well?”

Christian had called Blake last night and said his granddaughter was going to Conrad University foran interview.

“I passed.” Lea replied.

“Where is your acceptance letter? Come, show it to me.” Blake put down his utensils and held outhis hand, looking interested.

It wasn’t easy to enter Conrad University. Lea was quite the genius. Blake’s eyes were filled withexpectation and admiration toward a genius.

I haven’t gotten it yet,” Lea replied casually.

Blake paused. For a moment, he didn’t know what to do. His expression turned cold unconsciously,and his sharp eyes were filled with scrutiny.

Blake was very clear about the admission process for Conrad University because he was a memberof the school board. Furthermore, the Andrews family was also the largest shareholder of the firmsunder Conrad University.

If Lea didn’t get the acceptance letter, it meant she did not meet the criteria for admission andwasn’t accepted.

‘But why would Lea lie to me?” Blake wondered. His impression of Lea plummeted. ‘Did she cometo beg me to pull strings for her so the school could accept her?”

Conrad University’s admission requirements were very high, and the possibility of entering throughconnections was even slimmer. However, it was different for Blake. There was nothing he could notdo.

But Blake could not mention it first. After all, Lea was the one coming to him for help. He had to

put on airs.

Lea knew what Blake was thinking. She did not explain and focused on eating. If she told the truth,Blake would not believe her. Instead, it would make things even more awkward.

When Alfred heard that Lea did not get the acceptance letter, he could not help but look at her insurprise. Seeing Lea so calm, he was relieved.

Lea would not lie. Moreover, with her capability, Conrad University would beg her to come to theirschool eventually.

Alfred focused on his food too.

In the end, it was Blake who was bored from waiting. He tapped his fork on his plate and looked atLea curiously. He thought, “Why aren’t you talking? Go on. Say something.

Lea was silent. She felt the intensity of Blake’s stare and, having no choice, remarked, “The food isdelicions.”

Blake was bewildered. Then, he saw Lea lower her head and focused on eating again.

Blake looked at his grandson, who was also focused on eating. Blake asked with a probing gaze,“Have you been staying in Vaporleon City recently?

Alfred looked up at Blake, knowing his grandfather had ulterior motives. “Sure.”

Blake blinked. He thought, ‘What does that mean? Is that a yes or no?”

Blake was about to speak again, but Alfred immediately continued to eat with relish. For a moment,Blake was actually at a loss of words.

Then, Blake looked at Lea. She still did not mention Conrad University to him.

During this time, Alfred looked at Blake repeatedly and dismissed the idea of confessing therelationship he had with Lea.

After the meal, Lea and Alfred were full. Only then did Blake realize that he had only eaten a littleand was even hungrier than before.

Not long after the meal, Alfred let Lea leave.

Lea said to Blake, “Mr. Andrews, I’m leaving now. Bye.”

Lea knew Blake looked down on her. In her previous life, she had achieved so much and helpedAndrews Group become one of the top ten companies in the world. Although she was married to

Milton, Blake still looked down on her. In the end, Blake had looked down on her background.

However, Lea still respected Blake because of Alfred.

Blake asked, “You’re leaving?” He wondered, ‘You’re not gonna ask me to help you get into ConradUniversity?

Yeah.” Lea nodded obediently.

Alfred did not send Lea off personally. Instead, he asked Craig to send her off.

Blake and Alfred stood in the hall and watched Lea go to the parking lot.

Blake turned to look at Alfred. “Why didn’t you send her off? You can if you want to.”

Alfred really wanted to, but he appeared indifferent He knew what his grandfather was thinking.

As Blake was close to Christian, he could treat Lea like a granddaughter. However, Blake would notwant Lia to have anything to do with his grandchildren. The Berry family was not qualified.

Alfred didn’t want to cause trouble for Lea now, so he acted distant.

When Lea walked into the car park, a black Rolls–Royce drove in.

Milton was in the car. He looked up and saw a flash of white. He was stunned and.couldn’t look

away.

The woman’s figure was slender and graceful. She had long, soft hair. Under the sunlight, sheglowed.

Milton only saw her profile. The woman had delicate facial features. She was clean andotherworldly, like a fairy.

One glance was enough to make Milton fall in love,

“Stop the car,” Milton said urgently.

The driver was Milton’s aide, Thomas Cox. Thomas was shocked. He had been working for Miltonfor more than ten years, but this was the first time he had seen Milton so anxious and flustered. Hebraked at once and stopped in the middle of the road.

Bang.

Milton pushed the door open, got out, and hurried over.

The closer Milton got, the faster his heart raced. His breathing became heavy, and his heart felt likeit was about to jump out of his chest. He had never felt this way.

Milton was only halfway to the car when Lea got in and slammed the door shut.

The Mercedes–Benz reversed out of the parking lot, turned a corner, and headed out of the carpark. Craig had just accelerated when a figure suddenly appeared before the car.

“Fuck!” Craig hurriedly stepped on the brakes.

Lea stared at the dark figure.

The dark custom–made suit made Milton look tall and straight. His hair was slicked back and hiswell–defined face appeared lovingly sculpted.

Milton’s brows were slightly furrowed. There was even a wrinkle between his brows. It made himlook sharp. His deep eyes shone like obsidian.

Milton was like a scorching hot iron that pierced Lea’s heart and soul.

Lea did not expect to meet Milton here, nor did she expect him to stop her car.

“Drive on.” Lea’s voice was hoarse and sharp. There was a yearning in her order that she could notdetect.

“Stop. Stop right now.” Milton had already approached them. He was not afraid that the car wouldrun him down at all. The car wasn’t going fast, and the driver would not dare to hit him.

However, Craig could not refuse Lea’s order. The car that had slowed down suddenly accelerated.and drove diagonally past Milton.

In front of Lea’s car was the Rolls–Royce Phantom parked in the middle of the road. Fortunately,the road was wide enough. Lea’s car drove past the Rolls–Royce Phantom from the side andquickly shot out the gate.

Craig heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at Lea through the rearview mirror.

Lea’s eyes were wide and bloodshot. Her entire body was trembling. Even her teeth werechattering. She was filled with hatred and fear.

Craig was shocked. After all, Lea had dared to take a bullet and stab her enemy’s heart withoutblinking.

Craig didn’t know why Lea was like this. He was at a loss and was about to stop the car.

“Don’t stop.” It was another command from Lea.

Craig had no choice but to drive on.

The car gradually drove away, leaving Kentside Garden behind.

Lea looked at the rearview mirror. Her gaze became blurry. Only then did she slowly replace her breathand force herself to calm down.

When Alfred brought Lea here, he told her Blake was the only one in the family residence.

Lea did not expect Milton to appear suddenly and risk his life to stop their car. She also hadn’texpected her emotions to be so raw, so out of control. She’d thought she’d be able to keep them

under control.

Fortunately, Lea wasn’t driving. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to control herself and would have.run Milton down.

Through the rearview mirror, Craig watched as the redness in Lea’s eyes gradually receded. Herface returned to normal, but under her long eyelashes, her dark eyes gleamed icily. Her silence wasterrifying, like the calm before a storm.
