Chapter 209

Over the next few days, Karen continued to try and harass Leanna at the studio, but before she could even arrive at the threshold, someone would stop her with all sorts of excuses. She didn’t have any clue what was going on.

“I can’t tomorrow. I’m going to see my sister.”

“I’d rather you don’t. The semester holiday is coming up and all the young ladies can’t bear to not see you anymore. You should give them a bit more time to admire you.”

Louis was speechless.
