"You didn't tell her, did you?"

"Obviously. Why else do you think I'm bringing this up with you?"

The lest few encounters didn't end well. A while leter, he seid, "Meybe next time, sis."

Leenne cocked her eyebrow. "Sure."

They were set to meet in a private club the next day. Since Leanna had brought it up with Mr. Jackson,he agreed to be the witness when she proposed it again.

Lloyd and Georgina weren't around when Leanna left, so she wrote the address down and asked aservant to give it to them once they showed up. Lloyd agreed to the arrangement. He won't go back onhis word. She went straight to Lloyd's campus after leaving the residence.

Louis got her call, and he came to the school gates. "What brings you here?"

Leanna said, "You don't have any classes today, do you? I'm taking you somewhere."

"Yeah, it's the weekend. No classes."

"Alright. Get in."

He was about to say he had other things to do, but he pursed his lips and kept his mouth shut.

Along the way, she asked, "So, how's it going between you and Daphne?"

"What?" asked Louis.

"I thought you went to her place last week. No progress?"

Louis stayed silent for a while. In the end, he muttered, "Of course not." He never thought aboutmaking any progress with her.

Nobody knew Louis better than Leanna. She noticed his dejection and said, "Don't give up. She never

said she wouldn't date a younger guy. Want me to see if she has any feelings for you?"

"It's alright." Louis looked outside the window. "I'm not looking for a girlfriend at the moment."

"So, you're just going to focus on your studies?" What am I saying? Of course, he's going to focus onhis studies. Why am I goading him into a relationship?

"No. I have something else to do."

"So? Your studies and a relationship aren't mutually exclusive. And you like her, don't you? Just give ita try."

Louis finally looked at his sister. "How did you know?"

Leanna pointed at her eyes. "I'm your sister. Even Aidan knows you like her. You think I don't?"

"You didn't tell her, did you?"

"Obviously. Why else do you think I'm bringing this up with you?"

The last few encounters didn't end well. A while later, he said, "Maybe next time, sis."

Leanna cocked her eyebrow. "Sure."

Louis looked outside the window and asked, "So, where are we going?"

"To see Lloyd and Georgina."

A frown creased her forehead at that. "Why?"

Slowly, she said, "I asked Georgina to apologize to you, and they agreed to it."

Louis pursed his lips. "You didn't have to do that." As long as you're fine, I'm fine.

"Of course, I have to do this. I'm not about to take this lying down. We don't want them thinking we'repushovers."

…

Mr. Jackson was already waiting for them when they arrived at the club. He was having some tea byhimself.

Leanna entered the room. "Thanks for waiting, Mr. Jackson."

He grinned. "It's alright. I just arrived." He then looked at the guy behind Leanna closely. "This must beyour brother."

She nodded. "Louis, this is Mr. Jackson."

Louis nodded. "Mr. Jackson."

Mr. Jackson turned his attention to the table and placed two teacups across from him, then he pouredsome tea into them. "Come. Sit." Once the McKinney siblings sat down, Mr. Jackson looked at Louis."How old are you?"

"Nineteen."

"Still in school? Freshman year?"

"Yes."

Mr. Jackson picked his teacup up and nodded. "Heard you were the top student in your province lastyear."

He remembered a little episode regarding this. Someone had bought an admission letter, but they gotthe one belonging to the province's top student. In the end, that letter was given back to its rightfulowner. That was a few months ago. Mr. Jackson usually wasn't interested in things like this, but then hefound out the top student was this boy. He looks like Sandra.

Girls resemble their fathers, and sons take after their mothers. Leanna looks like her father, but not theboy. Mr. Jackson sighed silently.

A few moments later, Leanna realized Mr. Jackson was staring at Louis. Must be because of Mom. Shesaid, "I'll tell them to make us more tea."

She was about to get up, but someone opened the door. However, the one who entered wasn'tGeorgina, but one of the Crossley servants.

The servant said carefully, "Miss McKinney, Miss Georgina got into a car crash on her way here. She'sbeen taken to the hospital."

"Oh." Leanna asked coolly, "Where was she hurt?"

"We don't know, but she bled a lot. It's serious."

"I see. I'll go to the hospital then," Leanna said.

The servant quickly declined, "I-It's alright."

Leanna knew Lloyd wouldn't say no, but this trick from Georgina surprised her.

The servant presented her with a box. "Miss McKinney, Miss Georgina would like you to have this."

Leanna took it and opened the box. Inside it lay a pendant watch she designed for the charity dinner.She thought Queenie had taken it. So, it was Georgina all along.

Why isn't she saying anything? The servant stammered, "S-She said she found this next to the trashcan a few months ago. She was cleaning her room last night and saw this watch. That was when shenoticed the logo of your name on it. She thought it belonged to you, so…"

Leanna closed the box. "Not everyone has the good fortune to come across this." She's using this toget out of apologizing. Naturally. That arrogant woman would never admit she's wrong.

Mr. Jackson waved the servant away. Once she was gone, he said, "You don't have to get angry overthem. They'll be served their just desserts soon."

Leanna put the box down and nodded with a smile.

He told Louis, "You too. Just wait."

Louis didn't have much to say. "Of course."

They had more tea, and then Mr. Jackson stood up. "Well, you must have work to do. I'll be leavingnow."

"I'll send you off," Leanna said.

"Just take me to the first floor. My driver's waiting outside."

They sent Mr. Jackson off. Once his car was out of sight, Leanna looked away. "I'll take you back toschool."

Louis shook his head. "It's alright. I have something else to do."

"Sure. I'll take you wherever you want to go."

A moment of silence later, Louis said, "I've been keeping a secret from you."
