Chapter 425
Winford chuckled quietly, not arguing with her, and simply said, โLetโs eat, didnโt you just say you were hungry?โ He glanced at the pile of chocolate in front of Bryson and saw that it had been dug out to the point where its original, disgusting shape was barely recognizable. He reluctantly held back.
Bryson watched as Winford clearly noticed something was wrong, but he ignored it and couldnโt bring himself to blame his wife even a little bit. He sighed inwardly, thinking to himself, โJust as I suspected.โ He sadly averted his gaze and angrily scooped up a large spoonful. Bryson seemed like a salted fish that had lost its dreams while having a meal.
Ophelia didnโt know how many times she had received Brysonโs resentful gaze. She walked up to him with a smile and patted his shoulder, โRemember? Donโt speak out of turn in the future.โ After saying that, she happily pulled Lenora upstairs.
Walking up the stairs, Lenora couldnโt help but discreetly turn around and take a glance. I really didnโt expect itโฆ
Bryson, who happened to meet her gaze, said,
The next day, Ophelia went to National Medical School for classes, and Lenora accompanied her. โIs there no class at school today?โ Ophelia asked her.
Lenora pursed her lips and smiled, โI took a few days off; there was a program I had to attend.โ
Ophelia remembered that although Lenora got into Ventura University, she also entered the entertainment industry. However, it seemed she wasnโt very dedicated to her career there. She only occasionally participated in a program or rushed to attend a casting call. From her tone when she mentioned these things, it was very plain that she didnโt like them very much.
If thatโs the case, then why would you still want to enter the entertainment industry? This confusion had already existed before Ophelia. At that moment, on the way to National Medical School, she asked it out loud.
โI remember Nora didnโt really enjoy identifying herbs with me when she was young, did she? She used to say she wanted to be a doctor in the future, so how did she end up wanting to become a celebrity?โ
Lenora didnโt expect her to suddenly bring up this topic; she was taken aback for a moment, but quickly concealed her emotions and casually said, โBeing a celebrity is great. If I became a big star like Xander, I would have a lot of people liking me.โ
Ophelia chuckled and touched her head. The car parked at the entrance of National Medical School. Ophelia got out of the car and turned back to say, โIf you want to go on the show, let Orlando accompany you. Otherwise, I wonโt feel at ease without someone by your side.โ
Orlando was the driver who also worked as a bodyguard, which is why Winford felt comfortable having him accompany her alone. After speaking to Lenora, Ophelia instructed Orlando, โYou accompany Nora, and remember to take good care of her. I will have someone else come to pick me up later.โ Orlando respectfully responded.
Lenora did not refuse either; Ophelia cared for her like this, and she was very happy in her heart. Watching the car drive away, Ophelia finally turned around and entered National Medical School.
I had not walked a few steps when suddenly someone blocked my way; it was Josie. Ophelia paused, โIs there something wrong?โ
Josie looked embarrassed, hesitated for a while, and finally said, โI came here to apologize to you. I shouldnโt have blindly followed the crowd without any evidence. Iโm sorryโฆโ
