His Eagle Eyes on Me

Chapter 1902

"None of my teachers had ever cto my house for a visit. Why now?" Layla mumbled, before getting out of bed swiftly. She

went into the bathroom to wash up.

Meanwhile, the teacher scanned the living room of Elliot's mansion.

The interior was simplistic yet elegant, and it was not messy at all even though children's toys were seen at every corner.

Layla cdownstairs and beamed as soon as she saw her young, beautiful, new teacher.

"Hello, Layla. | am your class teacher for this term. My nis Leah Kennedy, you may callMs. Kennedy." Leah stepped toward

Layla and introduced herself. "By the way, | will also be your French teacher.” "Oh... Ms. Kennedy, what happened to my previous

class teacher?" "She got promoted," Leah explained with a smile. "Have you finished all your assignments for the holidays?"

Layla felt dizzy by the question but responded regardless, "Yeah. You want to check?"

"l was just asking, but you are more than welcto showyour work if you want to." Leah beamed at her. "Are your parents

home? | tried calling your dad but he didn't answer his phone.”

"My parents went away on a trip. Do you absolutely have to meet with them?" Layla asked warily as she had not a clue why the

new teacher was paying her a visit.

"I can just talk to you since they are away." Leah sat down on the couch and invited Layla to sit by her side. "lI heard what

happened to your family from your last class teacher. You used to have wonderful grades but ever since your parents got divorced,

your grades have gone down significantly."

A vacant expression took over Layla's face as though she was still struggling to wake up while listening to Leah's lecturing.

Mrs. Cooper sighed quietly at Layla's expression and went to the kitchen to cook breakfast for her.

"Layla, you are studying for your own sake, not your parents’ sake. You must take responsibility for your own performance. | know

that you cfrom a wealthy family and wouldn't have to worry about making ends meet even if you fail to achieve much as a

student, but | still want you to grow up to be a contributing member of society, instead of a lazy, useless loser. By the way, | also

heard that you take acting jobs during the summer holidays. It's a good thing that you have good looks, but that doesn't guarantee

you success. See, your mom is pretty too, but wasn't she a great student at school as well? Shouldn't you work toward becoming

someone like her?"

Layla stared at the new teacher with a complicated look on her face.

Her previous class teacher had spoken to her on the matter before, but she had been extremely gentle ;b&

She was still Elliot's daughter after all, and even if she was a 'lazy, useless loser’, she would not tolerate being told so directly in

person.

"Ms. Kennedy, you misunderstood Layla. She is very hard-working and her job in the entertainment business has not affected that."

Mrs. Cooper, too, felt that the teacher's words were too harsh and interfered.

"Are you Layla's grandma?" Leah asked.

Mrs. Cooper flushed a crimson shade. "No, I'm just a servant here."

"Oh... I will talk to Layla's parents once they are back. Layla will be taking her final exam soon. You might not know this, but

students with high academic achievements will be given the right to participate in the interview for lvy league schools..."

"Even if Layla can't get good results in the exam, Mr. Foster will still be able to send her to the best schools," Mrs. Cooper said.

"That's not the same! Don’t you want Layla to get into the best school herself?" Leah asked.

Mrs. Cooper was rendered speechless.

Unable to stand it any longer, Layla spoke out, "Ms. Kennedy, even my dad hasn't said anything to me. It's unbecoming of you to

stick your nose where it doesn’t belong."
