Chapter 1337After a long discussion, Alison and Alexa finally decided to buy a quality pen for Torey to thank him for helping them with math during this period.When Alison was adopted by Alexis, Alexis gave her a debit card and deposited 5,000 dollars into it every month as pocket money for Alison.But Alison had never withdrawn any money from the card, as she had money. Her grandmother had left a sum of money to her before death.Though the money was not much, it was enough to pay the tuition fees for four years of college.Since her grandmother’s death, Alison had done part-time jobs on weekends and during winter and summer vacations to earn money. But her money was usually taken away by her aunt-in-law under the guise of saving money for her.Alison didn’t refuse to give the money to her aunt-in-law, as she was timid and helpless during the beginning days when she lived with her aunt-in-law.But since she menstruated, she hadn't even had the money to buy sanitary pads somet
Chapter 1338Alison was embarrassed. She took out her French book from her school bag and started to read the words, while Alexa soon fell asleep. She probably stayed up late last night. She slept from 1:00 to 2:00. She didn’t wake up until after Alison called her several times. When they got to the library, it was 2:30. Alison had finished her French paper and most of her English paper, except for the essay. When Alexa arrived at the library, she was still yawning constantly. When she sat down, she was in a trance. She didn't sober up and concentrate on her homework until after 4:00. The two stayed in the library until 6 p.m. until Alexa's mom came to pick them up.By the time Alison got back to the Lynch family's house, it was 6:30. Blaze came home today, and Alison was happy, "Blaze, you're home." "Yes." Blaze nodded and handed her a lipstick. "I got it in the raffle." Alison was surprised, "Is it for me?" Blaze laughed, "What else? Did you expe
Chapter 1339Alison was looking at the lipstick Blaze had given her when the door to her room was knocked on.Since she had never put on makeup, she didn't even know what brand of lipstick she was holding.She felt that it was definitely not a cheap brand of lipstick that could be used as a lottery prize.Alison searched for the letters on the lipstick and realized that the small tube of lipstick she was holding cost 80 dollars.Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Alison was startled and almost dropped the lipstick in her hand."Alison?"Seeing that she hadn't opened the door for a long time, Louis shouted outside the door.Alison hurriedly put the lipstick on the desk and got up to open the door. "Luis?""Do you have your French book with you?"Alison was stunned for a moment and quickly responded. Then she turned around and took her French book out of her bag and handed it to him. "Luis, did you memorize your vocabulary today?"Luis raised an eyebrow. "Well, I hav
Chapter 1340But soon, Luis came back with two glasses of water in his hand, and he handed her a glass. "Your method is too complicated, but you solve the multiple-choice question anyway. I'll show you a simpler method later, and you can compare the two methods."Taking the glass of water, Alison felt moved when she heard Luis’s words. "Thank you."Luis snorted. "You're not poor at other subjects, but why can’t you learn math well?""I… I do not know."With her lips pressed, she took the workbook and read Luis’s method.It took her almost one hour to solve the two multiple-choice questions with the help of Luis.But this time, Luis instructed her step by step, giving her enough time to understand each step. So, when Alison solved the questions, she didn't need to spend any more time reviewing the steps.After nine o'clock, Blaze came up with fruit. He was a little surprised to see Luis in Alison's room. "Do I disturb you doing homework?"Luis turned around and glanced at Blaze
Chapter 1341 Luis did not expect that he would feed Alison grapes, and Alison also didn't expect that she would open her mouth. This action was indeed too close for them.Now they came to their senses. Alison's face suddenly turned red. This was the first time Luis touched a girl's lips. He felt they were soft and warm, and it seemed that his finger had been burned by something. A strange feeling appeared at the bottom of his heart. He glanced at Alison and found her flushed cheeks, so he could not help raising his eyebrows. ‘She is so shy?’ "Is it sweet?" Alison hadn’t bitten the grape yet, so it was still intact. Naturally, she didn't know whether it was sweet or not. Hearing Luis's question, she came to her senses and bit the grape in her mouth. It was sweet. Alison took a look at Luis and whispered, "It’s sweet." "Hmm, I have something to do. I'll go back to my room. You can enjoy it." Finding that she spoke in a low voice, Luis was a little embarrassed, so he carried the
Chapter 1342Luckily, Luis chose the quick wash mode. The bed sheet was laundered within 20 minutes.Then he put the bed sheet into the dryer. After Alison ate breakfast and went upstairs, he had hugged the bed sheet to his room and was putting it into the wardrobe.She said, "Luis?"The room door was closed tightly. She didn't know if he was taking a nap.Soon, the door was opened. He asked, "Are you full?"She handed the plate to him and said, "I'm full."She ate faster than usual but was full.He took the plate from her hand and said, "Thank you. Take your test paper here."She said, "I'm not in a hurry. You can call me after breakfast."He glanced at her and said, "I eat fast."She said, "OK."She could only go to her room to take her test paper and notebook.He ate fast indeed. When she came back, he had drunk half of the milk and eaten a sandwich.She was afraid that one sandwich was not enough for him, so she took three sandwiches for him. It seemed that three sand
Chapter 1343It took Alison over an hour to work out the two exercises. When she came out of Luis’s room, Alexis came up and asked them to go downstairs for the meal.Luis did have an appointment in the afternoon, with Zion and Benny.In the meantime, Alison stayed at home and studied French. It wasn’t very hard work so she had a casual chat on the phone with Alexa at the same time, and ended up asleep with her phone in her hand.When she woke up, it was nearly five o’clock. After getting her face washed to freshen up, she took the book to the balcony and did some poem reciting.Gentle breezes kissed things on the balcony from time to time, and Alison found it rather cozy studying on the deck chair there.In the municipal basketball court.Luis’s final three-pointer wrapped up the game, and his team won.Benny breathed a sigh of relief. Their opponents this time were not easy to deal with. It was hard for both Luis and Zion to shoot, for each of them got two defenders to stop t
Chapter 1344Alexis and Justin would go abroad tomorrow and wouldn't come back within half a month. Thus, Alexis asked Justin to cook the meal to make up for their absence.He didn't lie."Luis, you're back so early."Luis nodded. "Aunt Alexis, where is Alison?""She's memorizing texts upstairs."Luis said, "I'm going to take a shower."Alexis was busy and replied, "Okay. Dinner will be ready in half an hour.""I see."Luis went upstairs and subconsciously glanced at the opposite door. The door was left ajar. He quickly withdrew his eyes and entered his room.In late May, Juanton City became hot. Luis played a basketball game and was wet with sweat. Although he was blown dry by the wind on the way back, he was still smelly.He took a quick shower and came out of the bathroom, feeling much more comfortable.Luis knocked on Alison's room door, but no one responded.He raised his eyebrows and walked towards the balcony.The balcony was windy. He had just stood there for a wh
