It's not so much that George Flack became cautious then, but that when a person is set on doing something wrong, they become more meticulous, full of care and considerations.
Just as George was struggling, not knowing how to reply to Leah Wilson's text, he was seen by Aria Grant. In fact, when George was wrestling with how to reply, he thought to himself, 'Why bother? Why stress myself out?'
'I'll just not reply for now. After all, I have so much to do. I am, after all, a family man!'
So with that thought, George planned to shut his phone off, but just then, Aria Grant suddenly called out from behind, "Hey, what are you up to? The moment I come in, you shut off your phone. Are you concealing something from me?"
Aria asked seriously, because she suspected that George was shutting his phone out of hearing her coming. Just because she thought so, Aria was super angry.
