Layla tried to pretend nothing had changed but everything had.The moment she stepped outside the school gates that afternoon, the black sedan was still there,waiting,just like it had been in the morning.
Her stomach tightened. He wasn’t joking.
Elias had really stationed someone here.
A bodyguard or a guard or whatever name rich, controlling men like him used.
Layla crossed her arms and walked past the gate, refusing to look at the car but she could feel it. The weight of someone’s gaze following her every step.
Beside her, Chloe noticed immediately.
“You see that?” Chloe murmured.
Layla kept her voice casual. “See what?”
“That’s the car.”
Layla sighed internally. Of course Chloe noticed,Chloe notices everything.
“I don’t know what you're talking about.”
Chloe stopped walking.
