Madison blinked in confusion.Miranda took a cookie. "Thank you.""How is it? Does it taste good?" Madison gazed at Miranda with eyes full of anticipation, like a child hoping for praise."It's delicious, not too sweet," Miranda replied."I knew it! I've tried so many brands, and this one's the best
Madison murmured, "That Yasmine woman… you can't take her simply.""What do you mean?" Miranda asked."When I received my graduate admission letter, I joined the new student group chat," Madison explained. "Everyone kept talking about Yasmine."She was a top student at their university. Although her
Miranda's words insulted not only Hank but also Sophie and the rest of her group."So, you're that older graduate student?" Sophie finally gave Miranda a glance, her eyes filled with disdain as she sneered, "You certainly have a sharp tongue. I wonder if your abilities match your words."Hank chimed
The opening ceremony ended, and Miranda's life as a graduate student officially began.Her schedule was packed, with classes lined up from 9:00 am until noon almost every day. On the first day of class, Madison nearly showed up late. She arrived wearing flip-flops and shorts.Miranda paused, then ge
A tall, handsome man stood before Miranda. He was offering her a bouquet of yellow roses, but her expression didn't look pleased.Yasmine clicked her tongue. "Pretty girls really do have the advantage. It's only been a few days since school started, and someone's already going after her?"She added,
After Miranda met up with the two, they went to the popular restaurant together. It wasn't too crowded at noon, but they still had to wait for two tables before it was their turn. Madison had held back her curiosity all the way. Finally, she couldn't stop herself from probing further. She asked Mi

Sebastian noticed the look of disappointment in Madison's eyes and suddenly said, "Hey, don't we look like two school kids getting punished by the teacher and made to stand outside the classroom?""You're the one who looks like a school kid," Madison retorted."Then… does that make us childhood swee
"Paul, I apologize." Quincey said. "My mom must've been momentarily possessed or something. She looked uneasy the whole time after we got home. She only confessed once my dad and I noticed something was off. "So, I rushed over to return the bangle. Thankfully, I made it in time. Please help me pass
Paul didn't look particularly surprised when he heard that. He simply said calmly, "Wasn't that the whole point of you giving the gold bangle? Shouldn't you be pleased that Mrs. Jenny showed interest in your gift?""You—" Susan's eyes widened in shock. She was so angry that she couldn't speak. "Pau
"Mom's a woman herself," Lionel said. "She knows more than anyone that the bride will be taken lightly if her family submits to the groom's family even before the wedding happens. "Besides, Leonard and Rena treated her well over the years. They bought her anything she wanted, including gold and sil
Quincey was getting a little impatient while waiting for Jenny at the entrance of Delish restaurant. She kept pressing her phone screen to check the time. "What's taking Mom so long?"Meanwhile, Harold was smoking at the bottom of the steps. He had only gotten through half a cigarette, so he wasn't
"You should go ahead and accept the gift," Susan said. "I prepared them for everyone. They're just little trinkets to wear for fun."Jenny clicked her tongue. A trinket? For fun?Those were truly words worthy of a wealthy lady. It was amazing how generous she was. However, Jenny still had a shred o
Susan remained silent for the rest of the meal. She only concentrated on eating the food in front of her. Jenny, kept in check by Harold, didn't cause any more scenes, either. As the meal was nearing its end, several waiters suddenly entered the private room. Each one was elegantly dressed and wor
"What Mrs. Jenny said earlier made a lot of sense," Paul said. I've taken your words to heart."Then, he turned to Mindy and Lionel. "Please rest assured, Mr. and Mrs. Sutton. I know how lucky I am to have met Miranda. I'll always put her first, cherish her, and take full responsibility as her boyfr
"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
