Chapter 35 Angela Downplays The Money

Angela had to win! It was already past six when she finally set her books aside and prepared to head home from the library.

Before leaving through the school gate, Jessica grabbed her and took her to the on–campus dessert shop to buy the most exquisite piece of cake.

It was called “Fanny’s Special,” and if Fanny was having it, then Jessica had to have it too!

As Angela looked at the small cake in her hand, her clear eyes became slightly red.

After taking a deep breath, she earnestly said, “Jess, you have to give it your all. You must defeat Fanny in this speech competition!”

If Jessica triumphed over Fanny, she would be the one going abroad as an exchange student.

She could then pursue her love for her favorite language without any regrets and embark on a different path from her previous life.

When Angela arrived home, she looked around and found that no one else was there.

She casually placed the cake on the table, went into the kitchen, checked what ingredients were available, and considered cooking dinner for Donald and the others.

The door clicked open, and she turned around to see her grandmother, Emilia.
