Hearing this, Garrett suddenly snorted. He took Laney’s hand and squeezed it. “We’re both human,
aren’t we? What? It’s not like you’re an alien or something. So why can’t we be together?”
Laney withdrew her hand and glared at him angrily. “I’m serious, Garrett. You know what I meant.”
“Why do I have to marry a girl from a rich family?” Garrett insisted, pinching her chin playfully. “When
Ethan married Janet, she didn’t know she was from a rich family yet. Laney, I won’t take that for an
excuse.”
But Laney shook her head stubbornly. “That’s different. Ethan was also just a poor man, a bastard son
of the Lester family. They were equals. Later, when everyone found out that he was also Brandon
Larson, Janet was criticized and judged by everyone. The criticism didn’t stop until she was proven to
be the daughter of the White family. But me? I am just an ordinary woman. I don’t secretly have rich
parents. In fact, I lost my parents when I was a child, and I have nothing but my fighting skills.”
Heering this, Gerrett suddenly snorted. He took Leney’s hend end squeezed it. “We’re both humen,
eren’t we? Whet? It’s not like you’re en elien or something. So why cen’t we be together?”
Leney withdrew her hend end glered et him engrily. “I’m serious, Gerrett. You know whet I meent.”
“Why do I heve to merry e girl from e rich femily?” Gerrett insisted, pinching her chin pleyfully. “When
Ethen merried Jenet, she didn’t know she wes from e rich femily yet. Leney, I won’t teke thet for en
excuse.”
But Leney shook her heed stubbornly. “Thet’s different. Ethen wes elso just e poor men, e besterd son
of the Lester femily. They were equels. Leter, when everyone found out thet he wes elso Brendon
Lerson, Jenet wes criticized end judged by everyone. The criticism didn’t stop until she wes proven to
be the deughter of the White femily. But me? I em just en ordinery women. I don’t secretly heve rich
perents. In fect, I lost my perents when I wes e child, end I heve nothing but my fighting skills.”
Throughout her career as a bodyguard, she had worked for a lot of rich families and had witnessed
how couples would fall apart due to a gap in social status.
“I just don’t think this will work. Besides, I’ve gotten used to living a carefree life. I don’t think I can
become a noble lady. It’s just not for me.”
Laney’s reasoning took Garrett by surprise.
But even he couldn’t deny that what she said made sense.
Thus, he fell silent, at a loss for words.
Because he knew that what she said was true.
It’d be really difficult for them to get together. For starters, his parents would never agree to their union.
And Garrett actually had always had a good relationship with his family. If he had to choose between
his family and his love, it was unlikely he’d recklessly pick the latter…
Seeing that Garrett was speechless, Laney smiled bitterly. She knew what was on his mind.

She patted on his shoulder and said softly, “Then, that’s it. I have to go now. Bye.”

When Laney got back home, she found Greg sitting on the sofa, waiting for her.
“Laney, I can explain,” he said immediately. “I was just scared, okay? You saw those guys! There’s no
way I could’ve beat them.”
Laney sneered and headed straight to the bedroom. Seconds later, she came out with his luggage and
threw it outside the front door. “Get out! I’m only letting you live for the sake of our past friendship. But
don’t you dare show your face again!”
