Her Tears Are His Weakness novel Chapter 158

"Are you two heading back?" Ethan asked.

"Yes," Samantha replied.

"Perfect. I'm heading back too. Do you want me to give you a ride?"

Samantha didn't respond but just looked at Layla.

Layla shook her head. "No need to trouble you. We'll take a cab."

The last flicker of hope in Ethan's eyes disappeared, and his smile turned a little bitter. "Alright. Be careful on the road."

"Mm."

Layla tugged Samantha away without another word.

As they walked, Samantha whispered in Layla's ear, "Are you sure you don't want him to drive us? It wouldn't hurt, and we could save on the cab fare."

"No need," Layla replied flatly, firm in her refusal.

Samantha tried to convince Layla, but when she saw it wasn't going to work, she gave up. After seeing Layla off in a cab, she didn't wait long before a Maserati pulled up in front of her.

The window rolled down slowly, revealing Leonardo's cold, sharp face. He glanced at Samantha and said, a hint of displeasure in his voice, "You didn't want me to accompany you, and now you won't even let me visit your grandmother. Am I really that useless to you?"

It almost sounded like he was angry.

Samantha smoothly opened the car door and got in. She fastened her seatbelt before turning to face Leonardo and flashing him a slightly apologetic smile.

"I was just looking out for you," she replied. "The agreement clearly states that no one except your family can know about our relationship. If you went with me, how would I explain it to everyone?"

"You sure remember the details well."

"Of course. I must always keep the boss' needs in mind. That's what a good employee does."

"Boss? Employee?"
