Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 222

The girl feigned enlightenment as she exclaimed, "Oh, so that's how it's done' No wonder I couldn't get the right swing before. You're a brilliant teacher, President Parker'"

Elijah managed a smile and let go of her wrist

She looked down and mumbled self-deprecatingly, "Gosh, I'm so stupid. I hope I didn't take up too much of your time."

"It's fine. You just need some practice, that's all," Elijah said politely.

He decided to leave because he didn't want to stay and coach her any longer. However, to round out her act, the girl gasped and purposely tripped forward, stumbling right into his arms.

Elijah caught her instinctively but frowned without saying anything.

The girl blushed and said slowly, "Ugh, I'm such a klutz. Thank you for catching me, President Parker."

He said curtly, "Seeing as you're alright, maybe you should get on your feet'

She reluctantly detached herself from him after hearing this.

When Elijah had walked away, the girl gripped her club and traipsed over to where her peers were gathered on the other side of the driving range.

One of them gave her a thumbs-up while praising her earnestly, "That was amazing, Miranda' I can't believe you got President Parker to toss that woman aside just to help you out with golf."

Miranda quirked her lips as a smug look flashed in her eyes. "Well, that was nothing. I have more tricks up my sleeve."

"You know, I'm still a little confused as to why President Parker would want someone else's old toy."

"What's so confusing about that? He probably likes a pretty face. I mean, celebrities sleep with rich and powerful men all the time. It's practically an open secret in the entertainment industry."

"That's true. I bet President Parker sees her as only a plaything. Nothing serious will come of it"

"But there must be something extraordinary about that woman if she could have history with someone from the Pearson Family. I just hope President Parker isn't on the losing end of the bargain."

Miranda was unperturbed. "How extraordinary can she be? That pretty face is probably the only thing she has going for her."

"l suppose that's an advantage in and of itself," someone mused wistfully. "Everyone was calling her a homewrecker and a tramp for a time."

While Miranda and her friends tore into salacious gossip, Elijah walked up to Leanna on the opposite end of the driving range. He said, "Sorry to keep you waiting, Leanna."

Leanna smiled. "Don't worry about it It's not as if I had anything planned to begin with."

He glanced around the range and asked, "Do you play golf? Want me to teach you?"

She likely hadn't expected him to offer, for she gave him a bewildered look. "Huh?"

"It's easier than you think. Why don't you give it a try?"

Now that he had encouraged her, she thought it might be rude to turn him down. After all, she was going to try golf one way or another, so it was pointless to refuse his coaching when he offered. Nodding, she said, "Okay."

Then, Elijah took out the clubs from the lockec He was about to teach Leanna the basics when his assistant hurried out onto the range and whispered something to him. Whatever it was made him blanch, and he quickly said, "Tell them I'll be there in just a moment"

The assistant nodded and hastily went back.

"Go," Leanna replied understandingly
