"There's luck on your face! Hahaha!" Renee thought she was being funny."Your cheeks are getting chubby lately. You aren't as slim and weak now. I knew he's good at taking care of people. He did what he promised. He helped you gain weight," she explained. Previously, Joanne was weak and malnourished. Hence, they decided to keep Joanne there to live with them. At that time, Quinton quietly decided to help Joanne get healthy. He couldn't bear to see her that weak. He would study delicious food whenever he was free. Besides, he was experienced in that. After some time, he became no different from an expert chef."Stop teasing me, Ms. Everheart," Joanne said shyly, keeping her head low. She found herself in a difficult position. Initially, she refused to stay in Everheart Manor or have anything to do with Quinton. However, both Renee and Quinton were very enthusiastic. Joanne stayed because she yearned for such warmth. Still, her decision to stay seemed to have carried another

"How could I laugh at you? I'll only feel sorry for you." Renee held Joanne's hands and silently encouraged the latter to relax. "Of course, you can keep those unhappy things buried in your heart if you don't want to tell me.""I…"After a brief hesitation, Joanne decided to be brave. "I trust you and rely on you. So, I want to tell you. I hope there are no secrets between us." Joanne held Renee's fingers firmly.She was vigilant toward others and would not easily befriend people. She had no friends from when she was young, but she naturally let down her guard in front of Renee. Joanne wanted to be close to Renee. She wanted to be Renee's best friend, someone who was more important to her than her lover.It was because she found some kind of reassuring power in Renee. It helped her relax. Plus, she did not have to worry about being abandoned. "Sure, tell me. You have my full attention." Renee adjusted her posture and looked at Joanne seriously when she learned that Joanne wan

"He came home just to see me, and buy nice food or beautiful clothes for me. I still looked forward to his return, though my biological brother and mother would always snatch away those things. I was too timid to tell him that, because I knew that he had a very hard time. "He wasn't doing any better, so I didn't want him to worry about me. I was worried he might find fault with those people and have a more difficult time. I was the happiest when he came home to see me every month and spend some time with me. I didn't want to ruin that happiness."Joanne hated Quinton very much. But undeniably, he had given her the warmest happiness, though he had also given her the deepest pain. It was the medicine that had helped cure her wound. When she recalled her past, she felt that she might have long given up and killed herself were it not for Quinton's return when she was being bullied."You're so silly! Those wicked girls would only get more outrageous if you wanted to keep the peace. Th

The students immediately dispersed and returned to their seats. "Mr. Lyons, a genius student came to our class! She's more outstanding than you!" The male student with black-rimmed glasses, who was amazed by Renee's exceptional resolution, excitedly introduced Renee to Andy Lyons, his class teacher."Nonsense! Do you think you're very good at your studies now? Why did you mention a genius? How many times have I told you? There are no geniuses in the world. There are only those who work very hard!" Andy said solemnly and nudged his glasses. He sounded very much like a class teacher.The reserved female student copied Joanne's words and proudly introduced Renee, "Mr. Lyons, Jace didn't exaggerate. This young lady is amazing! If you don't believe me, you can test her. She can answer all kinds of questions. Plus, she graduated from BC University and was a master's student at a renowned foreign college. She had published a lot of academic papers, too."Renee sometimes had the power to

Joanne was happy that day and wanted to study harder. Previously, she would get ready to go home at eight o'clock. But that day, she sat until ten and was still attentive as she kept doing test papers. At first, Renee was excited too, but then she got tired and whispered, "Joanne, it's getting late. Why don't we go home?""I want to finish that Filansier test paper before I go." Joanne kept her head buried, absorbed in completing the test paper. She had no intention to leave."Okay, I'll take a walk. We'll go home when you're done." Renee could not hold on and needed some fresh air."Alright." Joanne wrote on the paper quickly, too busy to bother about Renee. She said casually, "You can go home first. I'll go home later." "No, I promised to stay with you today. I can't leave.""I'm fine. Although I dress like a high school student, I'm an adult. I'm not that weak. I'm fine being alone." Joanne looked up and smiled at Renee. Then, she eagerly started answering the questions agai
