Chapter 14 Listen carefully . Ill only say this once . Menu Jack took a pen and started writing on a piece of scrap paper while explaining the problems . Alice was stunned , looking at the man in front of her , her feelings suddenly becoming complicated . Because of Chloe , she had few friends and teachers disliked her . No one had ever helped her with her studies . Jacks tone was flat but sharp . With your attention span , you probably daydream in class ! Alice quickly snapped back to reality , whispering , Im sorry . Ill pay attention . Jack , seeing her submissive attitude , felt his throat tighten , and he continued explaining patiently . In the evening , warm light enveloped the two of them . Alice sat while he stood beside her , propping himself on the table , ca calculating the problem solving process . Do you think in a straight line ? This problem uses the same method as the last one . This is a simple trick . Cant you see it ? Are your eyes just for show ? Have you ever tested your IQ ? Are you below standard ? Do it again ! His tone was flat , but when he scolded , it hit hard . Luckily , Alice already knew he was the sharp tongued school doctor ; otherwise , she would have lost it by now . In the end , Alice managed to hold on . She packed up her completed homework : Thank you , Dr. Youre amazing . You still remember all this . Jack twirled his pen , his gaze appraising . Doesnt your family hire a tutor ? Alice pursed her lips . I dont want to owe them anything . Tutors are expensive . I have no money and dont want to ask the Welch family for help . Jack looked at her fair profile , her lowered eyelids hiding her emotions . Alice cautiously asked , Dr . Wilson , can I ask you for help if I dont understand something ? He turned , his tone unnatural . After being rejected , Alice didnt get angry ; she obediently packed her bag . Jack tapped the desk , adding , It depends on my mood . Alice smiled . Thank you , Dr. Wilson … no , thank you , teacher ! She said that and didnt wait for his reaction , grabbing her bag and running off . Jack squinted , a lazy smile creeping onto his face ; well , he might as well consider it a way to pass the time . When Alice got home , it was already dark . The butler approached : Mr. Welch and Miss Black are out for dinner . Alice went to the dining room alone , enjoying a rare moment of peace . She checked her phone and saw Chloes post : Having a feast with the brothers ! The photo showed them laughing . Alice glanced at it and then closed the app , continuing to eat . The next day , Alice got up and went to the dining room for breakfast . Her brothers werent there yet , only Chloe . Chloe smugly boasted , I made a lot of progress at training yesterday . 22:15 0.0 % * Chapter 14 Menu Alice sat down , expressionless , eating her food without acknowledging Chloe .
