Vinson’s voice drifted through the phone. “Mom, where are you?”

“I’m at Jadeborough University,” Susanne replied as she walked to the doors of the auditorium. Unable to help herself, she began recounting Arielle’s impressive math-solving spectacle to Vinson.

“That’s nonsense! I was only telling you what I saw today. I haven’t accepted her; for your sake, I’m giving her three months to prove herself.”

Vinson chuckled before saying, “So, did she prove herself tonight?”

“She…” The words seemed to have caught in Susanne’s throat as she trailed off. Coughing several times, she continued, “Acing her studies isn’t the only requirement. The Moores are nothing like their former selves. She won’t be able to help you in your business ventures.”

“Got it! I’ll pass on your words and motivate her to try harder.”
