His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2017

She saw a message from her father saying that he was waiting for her in her apartment with her mother.

Leah had thought that her father would ignore her since she had argued with her mother. Leah’s father had always been more attentive to her younger brother and had rarely made time to care for or educate her, so she did not know what to expect from him.

Would he confront her and forcefully take her back to Bridgedale?

Her head instantly started pounding at the thought, when suddenly, she heard Layla’s voice from outside the office.

"Ms. Kennedy.” Leah turned and saw Layla. She immediately walked over and asked," Layla, why are you here? Are you struggling with your homework?"

Layla shook her head. "Ms. Kennedy, it's Teacher's Day tomorrow and I made a gift for you last night." She handed a card to Lead as she spoke.

Leah accepted it and opened it to have a look. "This is the most beautiful card I've ever received. I will keep it up."

"You are a new teacher so this must be your first-time receiving gifts from a student, right?" George teased.

"Some of the parents wished me happy Teacher's Day a week ago. Some of them even told their kids to send gifts to me, but I turned them down. I prefer hand-made gifts like this one from Layla." "Take a closer look. Layla signed on the card. Do you know how much her autograph costs now? If you sell it, you will get a handsome amount of money."

Leah looked at them blankly.

Leah followed them to the restaurant they had made a reservation at, and once they took their seats in the private room, the waiter swiftly started serving their food.

"Leah, stop fighting your parents. They really love you. Your father wouldn't have set aside his work to come see if he doesn't care about you," said Natalie to ease the tension. "If you don't want to follow them home, that's fine; quit your current job and come to work for me. I will take care of you and your parents won't force you to go home or get married."

"You had it all figured out with my parents, huh, Cousin?"

"Yes." Natalie had thought that Leah would be thankful, but to her bewilderment, Leah's expression instantly darkened at her response.
