NovelOnlineShe would be able to see him so long as he had not latched his windows.
She tidied his room every day, so she knew that he did not have the habit of latching his windows.
She walked out into the cold and pushed his window open, causing the freezing breeze to steal into the room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLucas immediately wrapped himself in his blanket and strode toward the window to close it.
"Mr. Lucas, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that you rely on women... Actually, I didn't say it. It was Mr. Sam who did, and I just didn't argue with him." She placed her hands on the frto stop him from closing the window.
She no longer cared about her job; she just did not want to lose the friendship that she had with Lucas. Even if he was determined to ignore her for life, she had to apologize.
Throughout the years she had worked for the Woods family, Lucas had been the only one who was kind to her.
"I saw the cake you bought for me. I took it out and ate it," she said gratefully. "I know that you won't eat any of it, so I finished it. It tasted wonderful. Thank you, Mr. Lucas." Lucas remembered that he had thrown the cake into the garbage can and was surprised that she had taken it out.
"I admit that I was a little angry with you, and that's why I didn't defend you. You promised that you would spend my birthday with me, but you didn't chlast night. I waited for a really long time." Feeling a lump forming in her throat, she continued, "I tried calling you, but you didn't pick up. If you couldn't cback, you should have told me. That way, I wouldn't have waited for so long and wouldn't be so angry." "You are just a servant! Even if I broke my promise, I don't owe you an explanation!" he said coldly before shoving her hands out of the window and closing it.
She stared at the locked windows and tapped on them. "Mr. Lucas, even if you are mad at me, you need to eat, or you will get a stomachache! Open the window and I'll send the food in. I made your favorite pancakes!" Lucas ignored her.
Irene stood outside the window till she began to sneeze. She re-entered the house. She, more than anyone, knew how stubborn he could be. It was better to wait for Lucas to calm down on his own.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe tutor arrived as he usually did and Irene explained apologetically, "Mr. Lucas isn't feeling so well today, so he is resting in his room." "Oh, it's fine. The exam is nothing but routine for him. People from rich families have countless choices when it comes to universities. You, on the other hand, will have to give it your best." "I know. I will have to keep my head in the gas the exam approaches." Irene had adjusted herself and started taking her notes out of the backpack. She highlighted a few questions that she could not figure out.
et The tutor took the notebook and glanced over the pages before saying, "By the way, I didn't know this until last night, but your class teacher used to be my student talked to him about you and was told that you were an excellent student in your first and second years of high school." "What a coincidence! My class teacher has been really kind to me. He didn't say anything when my grades dropped and kept encouraging me," Irene said gratefully.
"You are a special circumstances student. It's impressive enough that you managed to study while you work, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to keep this job when you enter university. I can pay for your tuition then," the tutor offered. "I trust that you can get into Turlington University." "Thank you. Thank you so much. I will try to figure it out on my own, but if I'm really having trouble paying my tuition fees, I will seek your help and pay you back after graduating." Suddenly, the bedroom door on the first floor opened.
Lucas was starving and had left his room to get something to eat when he overheard the conversation between Irene and the tutor.
"How is she wrong for obeyingfor the sake of money?" he thought to himself, "If I'm put in her shoes, might be able to get my life together the way she's doing. If she loses this job, not only will she have to drop out of school, she might not even be able to buy food." Realizing the difficult situation Irene was in, he concluded that he had no reason to be angry with her, but he had also decided that he would no longer see her as a special friend.
