Wasn’t the most sightly thing to see, but Quentin ignored her. “Ellie, I’ve heard that you were the highest scorer in the college entrance examination for your city. That’s an amazing feat! Which university did you apply to?”

Elise chuckled. “Tissote University! But I still haven’t gotten my letter of admission yet. It’ll probably arrive in a few more days.”

After all, the Quentin Fassbender that people whisper of is a solemn and serious businessman. However, I feel like you’re far friendlier than what the rumors said about you.” Her choice of words was absolutely

began to ruminate on this turn of events. Prior to this, Maya had been talking about how close she was with Quentin and how highly he thought of her. Now that Madeline saw what just happened, things weren’t as how Maya said they were. On the contrary,

“You’re absolutely right, Mr. Fassbender! Maya calling you ‘Uncle Quentin’ isn’t exactly appropriate. After all, you look so young, and you don’t look like you’re much older than Maya. She didn’t quite notice this, so please, don’t take offense to my daughter.”
