Sam couldn't figure out how Timothy had seen right through him."Tell me. Why do we Cooper men always seem to crash and burn when it comes to Minnie and Miranda?" Timothy asked.Sam stayed silent."Must run in the family, huh? Damn! What a load of crap," Timothy said with a short, bitter laugh as he

"Research and academic competitions are two different matters. Besides, we've already finalized the research team for the international exchange program. We're pushing full throttle on the competition training," Hendrix said.He added, "Plus, changing the team at the last minute isn't the wisest cho
Sebastian's expression hardened."Ugh, who cares!" Madison waved it off. "Why overthink it? If the college is up to something, they'll come to us." She knew they would find out soon enough, so stressing over it was pointless.Miranda agreed, "Exactly. Whatever comes our way, we'll deal with it. Why
Theodore wouldn't take a risk like that.Madison frowned. "The more I think about it, the more something doesn't add up."Miranda's expression turned serious. "…Yeah, it's definitely strange.""I heard from a third-year senior that Joli's parents aren't in great health and often fall ill. Do you thi
Unlike the dry, biting cold of the north, the weather in Yalemont, located in the south, was a typical, damp, bone-chilling cold. As the high-speed train pulled into the station, a drizzle began to fall.When Miranda and the others stepped off the train, a sharp gust of wind hit them, and they insti
Early the following morning, Miranda, Madison, and Sebastian caught the first Route 516 bus.The scene was utter chaos. The bus was crammed with people, primarily elderly passengers. Baskets and woven backpacks cluttered the floor. It was stuffed with fresh vegetables and farm goods.Madison's jaw d
The bus swayed and jolted as it navigated the winding mountain roads until it finally reached the town.Miranda, Madison, and Sebastian stepped off and let out a collective sigh of relief. The nightmare-like ride they'd just endured was something they never wanted to remember."Are we there yet?" Ma
"Mrs. Jefferson, this toast is to welcome you to Lumberville!" Jenny exclaimed. "You should go around and explore while you're here. There's quite a bit of beautiful scenery in this city. "I would also like to thank you for your hospitality. You treated our entire family with such wonderful food an
Mindy rolled her eyes at him. "You only ever care about your physics test papers and lesson materials. As for anything else… ugh forget it."Lionel chuckled. "So what do we do tomorrow? Are we going or not?""Of course we're going? They came all this way to invite us sincerely. We'll be the ones in
"Mrs. Jefferson, you're too kind," Mindy said.Susan had a pretty good impression of Mindy. It wasn't just because of the dress back then, but also because of Mindy's family background. She came from a truly prestigious and prominent lineage as a lady of the Garrison family. However, she met with m
"Felix? Susan?" Miranda exclaimed. She was momentarily stunned to see them standing at the front door with a suitcase. Her eyes widened in surprise. Paul turned to her and said helplessly, "Miranda… my parents are here."She quickly regained her composure and stepped forward with a smile. "Felix, S
Under Susan's gaze, Jenny felt a chill run down her spine. "You… Why are you acting so weird? Are you mute? You don't look like it from how you're dressed."She shot Susan a glare and muttered, "Crazy woman," before heading back into her apartment building. Susan stayed rooted to the spot. Her face
They made it back from the school to Harold's place just in time for dinner. After dinner, Lionel and his family said their goodbyes. Upon seeing this, Leonard's family made their exit right after. Jenny walked them to the door before collapsing onto the couch, clutching her lower back. "What a ti
Paul's genes ensured both good looks and a decent figure. On top of that, judging by how generous he was with his gifts, he clearly wasn't just an ordinary college professor. He probably came from an affluent family. Elite families like his often went back several generations, which meant his rela
Since it was the end of the year, the students were all on holiday. The vast school grounds felt a little deserted. Dallas Urban, the school's security guard, noticed Lionel coming from a distance. He stepped out of the guard booth and greeted him cheerfully, "Mr. Sutton!" Then his gaze landed on
"There's still a pile of pots and pans in the kitchen waiting to be cleaned," Jenny complained."I'm just like a maid that's born to toil endlessly, unlike you who can enjoy such an easy life. "You should really learn from Lionel. He cooks every time they host a gathering. You two are brothers, but
