Chapter 155
Lea said, “Mr. Andrews, you’re exaggerating. Everyone in your family is outstanding and no one can compare 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, with Lea 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 the SAT 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 for an interview.
“I passed.” Lea replied.
“Where is your acceptance letter? Come, show it to me.” Blake put down his utensils and held out his hand, looking interested.
It wasn’t easy to enter Conrad University. Lea was quite the genius. Blake’s eyes were filled with expectation 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 member of the school board. Furthermore, the Andrews family was also the largest shareholder of the firms under Conrad University.
If Lea didn’t get the acceptance letter, it meant she did not meet the criteria for admission and wasn’t accepted.
‘But why would Lea lie to me?” Blake wondered. His impression of Lea plummeted. ‘Did she come to 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 through connections was even slimmer. However, it was different for Blake. There was nothing he could not do.
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 in surprise. Seeing Lea so calm, he was relieved.
Lea would not lie. Moreover, with her capability, Conrad University would beg her to come to their school 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 at Lea 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 is delicions.”
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 the relationship he had with Lea.
After the meal, Lea and Alfred were full. Only then did Blake realize that he had only eaten a little and 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 helped Andrews 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 Conrad University?
Yeah.” Lea nodded obediently.

Chapter 155
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 not want 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, she glowed.
Milton only saw her profile. The woman had delicate facial features. She was clean and otherworldly, 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 Milton for more than ten years, but this was the first time he had seen Milton so anxious and flustered. He braked 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 like it 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 car park. 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 his well–defined face appeared lovingly sculpted.
Milton’s brows were slightly furrowed. There was even a wrinkle between his brows. It made him look sharp. His deep eyes shone like obsidian.
Milton was like a scorching hot iron that pierced Lea’s heart and soul.
