The next day, Vanessa Sterling didn’t wake up from her dream until after ten in the morning.
She could still recall the beautiful scenes from her dream, and after reminiscing for a bit, she suddenly rembered that she had indeed agreed to be with Miles Sterling last night.
The sunlight outside was gentle, and it seed like a nice weather day.
The house was quiet, and there was no noise outside; everything seed ordinary.
Picking up her phone, she found an unusually large number of unread ssages.
Vanessa imdiately noticed an unread text ssage mixed in with over ten WhatsApp ssages.
Miles Sterling hadn’t added her on WhatsApp, so upon seeing the text ssages, Vanessa naturally opened these two ssages first.
One was sent at around seven in the morning: Are you awake? What do you want for breakfast?
Vanessa usually woke up around seven, but because she went to bed too late last night, she ended up sleeping until now.
The other ssage was sent just ten minutes ago: Your little assistant doesn’t seem too welcoming towards . I’ll co back once you’re awake.
Vanessa didn’t know what had happened, but she could already imagine Yvonne giving Miles a hard ti.
Sure enough, as soon as she opened WhatsApp, she saw Yvonne venting to her.
Teacher Sterling, are you awake?
Guess what I just saw?
That jerk actually ca to stake out at the shop entrance!
When I went to open the door, he was standing right there, looking all sneaky, hardly seed like a decent person!
Oh my god, he actually ca to bring you breakfast?!
Is he really trying to pursue you?
There’s definitely sothing wrong with that breakfast—make sure you don’t eat it!
That jerk has so nerve; he just stayed there and wouldn’t leave.
Teacher Sterling, don’t co downstairs just yet; I’ll deal with him!
Teacher Sterling, I managed to make him leave, you can safely co down now.
This long string of ssages continued from a little after seven in the morning until ten minutes ago.
Vanessa then realized that a lot had probably happened while she was asleep.
When Vanessa finished getting ready and went downstairs, she saw classes being conducted thodically in several rooms.
She found Yvonne in the office, grading howork for the kids.
"Teacher Sterling? Did you see the ssages I sent you?"
Vanessa nodded, and before she could speak, Yvonne exaggeratedly said to her, "You wouldn’t believe how shaless that jerk is; he lingered in the lobby for a long ti. While I was tidying up and cursing at him, he probably couldn’t stand it anymore, and that’s why he finally left."
Vanessa couldn’t help but be curious, "What did you curse at him about?"
"Hehe, I just said whatever ca to mind. Wasted more than an hour of my ti, didn’t even finish grading the howork."
Vanessa sat opposite Yvonne, took so ungraded howork, and while helping to grade it, said, "You shouldn’t curse at him anymore."
"He ca asking for it! If he doesn’t co, I naturally wouldn’t curse at him!"
Vanessa pursed her lips and said, "...I already agreed to be with him."
Yvonne’s hand stopped while writing comnts as she gaped in disbelief for two seconds, initially thinking she misheard, "What did you say? You agreed to be with him?! As his girlfriend?!!"
Vanessa nodded, "...Yeah."
Yvonne stood up and felt Vanessa’s forehead, "Did you overheat your brain or did he bewitch you? Soone like him..."
Before Yvonne could finish her sentence, Vanessa’s phone on the table rang, and a new text ssage popped up on the screen: Not up yet? You must be hungry, right?
