Chapter 399: Chapter 399 The New Tutor

When Waylon Lewis came back, Hope Williams had already finished work and was waiting for him downstairs.

Waylon Lewis hurried over and held Hope Williams’s hand.

Hope Williams glanced up at him, "Where did you go?"

Waylon Lewis paused, "Met with a friend."

"For so long, wasn’t it supposed to be just a while?" Hope Williams tilted her head to look at him, her eyes filled with curiosity, her expression a little puffed up.

*Hope Williams felt like he was hiding something from her, often avoiding talking to her.*

*He had never been like this before.*

Waylon Lewis comfortingly rubbed her cheek, "I really just met a friend."

Hope Williams slapped his hand away, looking at him seriously.

Waylon Lewis unconsciously stood up straight, ready to obediently listen to his wife’s words, "What’s wrong?"

"I was thinking," Hope Williams spoke slowly, "Waylon Lewis, did you..."

"Hmm?"

"Have someone else outside?"

Waylon Lewis, "?"

Hope Williams looked at Thomas Hughes, "You tell me."

"Well..." Thomas Hughes stuttered.

Waylon Lewis shot him a glance.

Thomas Hughes felt the Boss’s gaze, raised an eyebrow at him.

"Don’t look at him." Hope Williams interrupted their eye contact.

"Well, ma’am, the Boss did go to meet a friend, and you know this person too," Thomas Hughes said cleverly.

"Who?"

Waylon Lewis glanced at Thomas Hughes again.

Thomas Hughes quickly replied, "It’s Master Cloud..."

"Liam Cloud?"

Thomas Hughes nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Master Cloud invited the Boss for dinner to catch up."

*Waylon Lewis catching up with Liam Cloud, huh, she couldn’t really believe it.*

*It was already a miracle if those two didn’t fight when they met.*

Waylon Lewis withdrew his gaze, wrapping his arm around Hope Williams’s waist, "Yes, I was catching up with him, had some matters to discuss."

Hope Williams blinked, squinting her eyes to scrutinize Waylon Lewis.

*Being stared at by her made Waylon Lewis’s heart pound.*

*Lying to her about this made Waylon Lewis feel a bit powerless.*

*However, he did meet Liam Cloud, so it wasn’t really a lie.*

Luckily, Hope Williams didn’t continue questioning.

*Of course, Hope Williams wasn’t really suspecting Waylon Lewis had someone outside, it was just he had been acting so odd recently, she just wanted to probe him and see if she could learn anything.*

He said he met Liam Cloud. Hope Williams was half believing, half doubting.

"Alright, seems like you two have been getting along quite well recently."

Waylon Lewis breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Hope Williams pursed her lips, glanced at her watch, "Let’s go home. Mom’s waiting for us at home. She said earlier she wanted to find a tutor for Luke and Willow, and she’s waiting at home for us to look into it."

"Okay."

Waylon Lewis guided Hope Williams into the car.

When they got home, Alitzel Williams was sitting in the living room with the tutor.

"Mom."

"Little Hope, Waylon, you’re back."

Hope Williams glanced over to the sofa and saw a girl nervously stand up from it.

Alitzel Williams called them over, "Waylon, Little Hope, come here."

Hope Williams walked over with a calm face.

Alitzel Williams pulled the girl over to introduce, "Her name is Grace Gray, she’s the tutor I hired for Luke and Willow."

"Grace, these two are my son and daughter-in-law."

The girl named Grace Gray politely bowed to Hope Williams and Waylon Lewis, "Hello, Mr. Lewis, Mrs. Lewis."

Hope Williams politely responded, "Hello."

Alitzel Williams continued to introduce Grace Gray with a smile. Grace Gray was a college student from a prestigious university, consistently one of the top students in her class, but her family background wasn’t good, as she lost her parents. The Lewis family had been doing charity work, and Grace Gray was one of the students they sponsored.

Despite the Lewis family’s support, Grace Gray had always been independent, seeking part-time jobs.

As Alitzel Williams spoke, it was clear she was very satisfied with Grace Gray.

Hope Williams’s gaze swept over Grace Gray a few times.

The girl often kept her head down, sported bangs, wore her hair in a simple low ponytail, donned black-rimmed glasses, a simple white dress with a dark jacket, and carried a backpack on her shoulders. She looked timid, yet her eyes were incredibly clear.

She kept her hands neatly on her knees, and when praised by Alitzel Williams, she just smiled slightly.

Hope Williams tugged at her lips, "Miss Gray."

Grace Gray lowered her head, not responding.

Hope Williams blinked, raising her voice a little, "Miss Gray?"

"Ah?" Grace Gray stood up in a panic as if startled by Hope Williams’s voice, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, what did you say?"

Hope Williams was taken aback by her two apologies, "It’s fine, it’s fine, I just wanted to politely ask your age?"

"Twenty-one." Grace Gray quickly replied, and after answering, she immediately lowered her head, looking as if she was too scared to look at Hope Williams, like a very well-behaved little rabbit.

Hope Williams, seeing her reaction, felt like she had a fierce face scaring the girl, as if ready to eat her at any moment.

Hope Williams nodded slightly, "Hmm, what year?"

"Junior."

Hope Williams nodded again and said no more.

Because she felt that if she continued talking, the young girl might be scared to tears.

She was attending Emperor University, the best university in Emperor Capital. Being admitted meant her studies were obviously excellent, more than sufficient to tutor five-year-olds, Luke and Willow.

Alitzel Williams patted Grace Gray’s hand, "Grace is quite introverted but very patient, kind-hearted, and with a good temperament. Waylon, you’ve met Grace before, but it was many years ago, do you remember?"

Waylon Lewis frowned, "I don’t remember."

Alitzel Williams, "..."

Grace Gray subtly raised her eyebrows to look at Waylon Lewis, then hurriedly lowered them, hiding some thoughts in her eyes.

"Waylon, go call Luke and Willow down." Hope Williams patted Waylon Lewis’s shoulder.

Waylon Lewis stood up and went upstairs.

Hope Williams smiled and placed her gaze back on Grace Gray, who happened to withdraw her surreptitious glance at the man.

Her eyes met Hope Williams’s, and the girl pursed her lips, looking slightly nervous and scared.

Hope Williams couldn’t really say she disliked the girl, nor was she very fond of her.

Because she often kept her head down, with watery eyes that seemed as if everyone bullied her, a bit pretentious.

But since Alitzel Williams strongly recommended her, Hope Williams didn’t want to embarrass Alitzel Williams.

"Little Hope, chat with Grace. I’ll go check the kitchen. I’ve got them making some tonic soup for you, have more later."

Hope Williams smiled and nodded, "Alright, thank you, Mom."

Once Alitzel Williams left, the living room only had Hope Williams and Grace Gray. Hope Williams saw her stiffness and got up to pour her a cup of tea.

"Miss Gray, have some tea." Hope Williams handed the cup to Grace Gray.

Grace Gray reached out to take it, just about to thank her, but her hand slipped...

"Ah!" Grace Gray screamed, waving her hand.
