A False Heiress's Guide to Love and Power

Chapter 119

“Thanks for your help today.” At the end of the street, Alessia said goodbye to Eddie.

“Are you sure you’ll be alright on your own? I could come in with you, just in case,” Eddie offered, looking concerned.

“No need. Go on, get home. See you next week.”

Knowing how stubborn Alessia could be, Eddie let it go. With her watching, he got in his car and drove off.

Now there were just three of them left at the corner. Alessia took each boy’s hand in hers, while Rex sat obediently at Ivan’s feet, not moving or barking.

“Can he hold Rex’s leash for a bit?” Alessia asked York, careful not to overstep.

York snorted and looked away, a touch of pride in his voice. “Sure, whatever. His family’s so poor, no wonder he’s never seen such a handsome dog.”

Alessia noticed the flush on York’s ears and chuckled, ruffling his hair. “You little rascal, is it so hard to be nice for once?”

York huffed in protest, but Alessia just smiled and turned her attention to Ivan, her tone softening.
