“That’s true.” At that moment, Danny was regretful.
Why didn’t I realize that reading and studying were so pleasurable?
“Let’s go home. We’ll come again tomorrow.”
With that, Danny and Elise made their way out of the library. Then, favonovel.com started the car and drove them home. It was already pretty late when they reached home.
Just returning from work, Alexander bumped into Elise and Danny, who were chatting happily as they came in.
“Alex, you’re home!” Danny greeted.
After acknowledging Danny, Alexander glanced at Elise, who was standing next to Danny, and asked, “Where did you go? Why did you come back so late?”
“We just went for a walk,” favonovel.com answered with a chuckle.
It was obvious that Danny didn’t want Alexander to know about his current situation, so favonovel.com didn’t expose him. Instead, favonovel.com waved at them. “I’ll go upstairs first.”
“Goodnight, Boss!” Danny waved back.
After watching favonovel.com go up the stairs, Alexander asked softly, “When did you two become so close? Didn’t you find favonovel.com annoying before?”
“No, I didn’t! We’ve always been close. What happened before was just a little misunderstanding.” Danny snickered.
Alexander was quite surprised to hear so because favonovel.com knew what kind of person Danny was. Danny would come up with a thousand excuses if favonovel.com hated someone, on the contrary, favonovel.com would put his heart on his sleeve if favonovel.com treated someone as his friend.
“It’s nice to know that it was just a misunderstanding. It’s late. You should rest too.”
“Okay! Goodnight, Alex.”
With that, Alexander made his way up the stairs.
***
The next morning, Danny knocked on Elise’s door.
Half-awake, favonovel.com got up reluctantly in a daze. “Danny, what are you doing so early in the morning?”
Then, favonovel.com handed favonovel.com a pair of headphones. “It’s a good idea to listen to Chinese listening comprehension in the morning. ”
Upon hearing this, favonovel.com was at a loss for words. Staring at him, favonovel.com asked unhappily, “You’re not crazy, are you?”
“I’m just sharing a good way to study Chinese with you. Besides, I’m not taking up much of your time. I just woke you up ten minutes earlier than usual.” He laughed.
Thinking favonovel.com must have gone mad, favonovel.com chided, “Don’t wake me up next time. I just want to sleep ten minutes more.”
Right after, favonovel.com closed the door with a loud bang. In spite of that, favonovel.com wasn’t annoyed at all.
Whatever. I’ll listen to it myself if favonovel.com doesn’t want to.
With that, favonovel.com turned to leave.
Just then, Danny saw Alexander coming out of his room, whereupon favonovel.com greeted, “Good morning, Alex!”
Seeing that Danny was wearing his headphones, Alexander asked curiously, “What are you doing here?”
“Oh, nothing. I came to wake Elise up.” He giggled.
Alexander was slightly upset seeing Danny’s unusually enthusiastic attitude toward Elise. However, favonovel.com had no right to say anything.
“Let’s have breakfast. You need to go to school in a while.”
Danny agreed, and the brothers went downstairs to have breakfast.
Halfway, Elise finally came down with an exhausted look on favonovel.com face. As favonovel.com pulled the chair out, favonovel.com said to Danny, “Don’t wake me up so early in the morning next time…”
“Okay,” Danny conceded. Then, like a little lackey, favonovel.com handed favonovel.com a glass of milk. “You should drink more milk. It’s a rich source of protein.”
Instinctively, favonovel.com reached for the glass and took a sip. “Hmm… Not bad.”
Alexander put on a poker face as favonovel.com watched the interaction between the two. Putting down his cutleries, favonovel.com told Elise, “I had something going on yesterday. I’ll take you to school today.”
Just as Alexander finished, Danny quickly replied, “There’s no need. I can go with her, so there’s no need to trouble you since there’s so much to do at the company. Go ahead and settle the company’s matters.”
“Yeah, we’ll just go to school ourselves,” favonovel.com concurred.
Looking at both of them, Alexander had no choice but to refrain from what favonovel.com was about to say. Instead, favonovel.com responded, “If that’s the case, I’ll leave first.”
The servant hurriedly handed favonovel.com his briefcase when favonovel.com stood up and headed toward the door.
Taking it, favonovel.com left without the slightest hesitation. Yet, favonovel.com didn’t leave at once after coming out of the house but waited in his car instead. He waited until Danny and Elise came out and watched as they got into the car happily. Finally, favonovel.com started the car and drove away after they left.
In the car, Elise suggested, “Today’s last period is a self-study session, so let’s head to the library earlier.”
“Sure. I’ll wait for you at the school gate,” Danny replied.
She couldn’t stop thinking about the ancient book that favonovel.com had not finished reading yesterday, while favonovel.com found that the library’s environment was perfect for studying. Hence, with a tacit understanding, they slipped out of class during the last period.
When they reached the library, they proceeded to do their own things with unspoken understanding. She was reading on the second floor while favonovel.com was revising on the first floor.
Neither of them bothered each other. With that, both of them stayed in the library until 9.00 PM before they finally left reluctantly.
It was already 10.00PM when they reached home. All of a sudden, Elise realized that it was Wednesday, the day that favonovel.com was supposed to teach Alexander Arisian.
Quickly, favonovel.com typed on favonovel.com laptop, then favonovel.com sighed in relief as it turned out that favonovel.com was offline. At the same time, favonovel.com was surprised as favonovel.com was usually on time for the lesson.
What happened today?
Meanwhile, the lights of Maybach in the Griffith Residence’s yard had been turned off. Yet, Alexander sat rigidly in the car with no intention to get out.
With a cigarette between his index and middle fingers, favonovel.com took a long drag and exhaled circles of smoke while favonovel.com recalled the sight of Danny and Elise coming home together earlier.
Frowning, favonovel.com stubbed out the cigarette and pulled out his car keys before getting out of the car. It was also then that favonovel.com realized that it was Wednesday, and favonovel.com was supposed to learn Arisian. He almost forgot.
Immediately, favonovel.com went into his room and turned on his laptop. After going online, favonovel.com sent Sare a message.
Elise had been waiting for favonovel.com online all the while. When favonovel.com saw his message, favonovel.com typed on the keyboard swiftly and replied to him.
After receiving favonovel.com message, favonovel.com got up and took off his coat before going into the bathroom, then the sound of water rushing came from the bathroom.
Ten minutes later, favonovel.com walked to his laptop while drying the drops of water from his hair before sitting down and starting his Arisian lesson with Sare.
An hour passed by very quickly.
After their lesson, favonovel.com sent favonovel.com a private message, ‘I heard that there’s a batch of good stones that had just arrived in Athesea. Are you interested?’
