Her Tears Are His Weakness

Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Samantha finally had a day off and was enjoying some much-needed rest at home when her phone rang. It was Layla on the line.

"Samantha! Are you off today?" she asked.

Half-asleep, Samantha groggily responded, "Yeah."

"Come over and hang out! Let me show you around."

"Thanks. But I don't want to bother you."

"It's fine. I'm the only one here in the villa. Mr. Garrett is very busy. He's never been here, so you don't have to worry."

Samantha found herself somewhat swayed by this information. Without Leonard around, she would feel more at ease.

Before she could respond, Layla quickly declared, "That's settled then! I'll have someone pick you up right away!"

Samantha found it hard to decline Layla's enthusiastic invitation. Ultimately, Layla arranged for a chauffeur to personally pick her up and take her to the villa.

The villa was designed in a sleek modern style, featuring charming gazebos, intricate pathways, and a lake, creating a peaceful and elegant atmosphere.

The maid had thoughtfully prepared coffee and snacks in one of the gazebos. After their stroll, they could relax there, watching ornamental carp swim in the clear lake while enjoying their coffee.

The leisurely life was truly enviable.

Layla had scheduled an appointment for a rejuvenating facial and initially hoped to bring Samantha along. However, Samantha wasn't fond of the idea. Thus, Layla could only go alone.

"If you wish to eat or drink anything, just let the maids know. If you find yourself feeling bored, feel free to take a walk. But please avoid the backyard. There's a fierce dog there."

"Alright."

Samantha was bored and tossing food to the well-fed carp in the gazebo, each one plump from frequent feedings. After finishing the feeding, she felt aimless and decided to walk around. Unexpectedly, a merle Border Collie dashed toward her.

She instinctively stepped back, but the Border Collie stopped at her feet and sniffed around her. She froze instantly, too afraid to move.
