"Yeah. Your mom headed over there to handle something. She will be back once she's done." "Oh... She's not in any danger, though, is she?" Layla asked.

"Probably not. Your brother and Mike will be there in Bridgedale to take care of her once she arrives in Bridgedale." "Okay! Let's go to Ms. Kennedy's apartment to finish my homework, then! She toldthat she has a meeting earlier this afternoon and will get off work a little later. She handedher keys and toldto go to her place first." The two headed to Leah's apartment, and the bodyguard opened the door to find someone sitting on the couch.

It was someone they knew.

Natalie's aunt had asked her to visit Leah at her apartment to check in on her, and Natalie had not expected to see Layla and Elliot's bodyguard there.

Layla turned heels without hesitation, wanting to leave as soon as she spotted Natalie, but the bodyguard stopped her.

They had not ruled out the possibility that Natalie might have something to do with Elliot's disappearance, so she still could be involved.

"What a coincidence, Ms. Jennings." The bodyguard took Layla's hand and went inside, closing the door behind him.

Natalie was clearly uncomfortable with their presence. She managed to force a smile after a few tries and said, "It's been a while, Layla." Layla pretended like she did not hear a thing and went into the study room to work on her homework.

The look on Natalie's face froze at how rude Layla was acting.

"Ms. Jennings, Layla has been like that ever since the incident with my boss. You don't need to mind her," the bodyguard said, bringing up the subject of Elliot's disappearance.

"Yeah, I can understand. I'm sad that something happened to Elliot, too. I wanted to visit, but I refrained from doing so because I know Avery and Layla hate me," she responded calmly. "By the way, why do have the keys to my cousin's apartment? Did she give them to you?" you "Yes. She's tutoring Layla every night. Don't you know, Ms. Jennings?" "I do, but I thought she was doing that at school. I didn't think she would be tutoring Layla in her own apartment." Natalie was both surprised "Ms. Jennings, do you think that Layla and I are bad people that your cousin should be alert around?" "I didn't say that." Natalie's expression darkened as she grabbed her purse and strode toward the door.

When she opened the door, she ran into Leah, who had just gotten hfrom work.

"Leah, what's wrong with you? You can tutor Layla, but why would you invite them to your apartment? Are you trying to gain sbenefits by associating yourself with the Fosters?" Natalie shut the door, but her voice could still be heard inside the apartment. "The Fosters have lost their glory! Now that Elliot is dead, they have no one left to lead them, and here you are kissing their boots. Are you mad? Did you not listen to a word I said to you before?" "Cousin, I thought you said that Elliot Foster is just missing?" Leah flushed and said, "and now you are saying he's dead. Is he dead?" Natalie took a deep breath and lowered her voice. "He is dead if I say he is! Go back inside and chase those two out!" Before she could finish, the door flew open...
