NovelOnlineUgh! Millie was taken aback.
It was just a casual remark; how could she know where she was lacking in professionalism? Sure, she had crammed the night before, but it was a last-minute effort, and none of that information had really stuck in her brain.
Her eyes darted around as she tried to change the subject: "Right now, I'm the one asking you if you have a tea sommelier certification. Don't try to deflect." "I'm here as your instructor, eager to listen to student feedback and clear up any confusion. Is there a problem? What do you mean by deflecting? If you're going to challenge my abilities, fine, but you need to back it up. I won't accept baseless accusations!" Faced with such a strong stance from Roseanne Cole, Millie felt a bit out of her depth.

"Even if we didn't, a quick Google search would make anyone sound like an expert." "Tea sommeliers have different levels of certification, and obviously, the depth of their lectures varies. Did we really chere just to hear you talk about the basics?" Sof the ladies were swayed by her argument and nodded in agreement- "She's not wrong.

While Nola was tense and angry, Silver was the picture of relaxation, leisurely sipping her wine, enjoying the unfolding.
This was proving to be an entertaining visit.
Despite not knowing Roseanne well and not really taking to her because of her looks, and manner-she seemed aloof and non-confrontational, which Silver just saw as pretentious. Like Nola, Roseanne rubbed Silver the wrong way.
She even felt a bit of schadenfreude, thinking if Roseanne couldn't produce that certificate, she'd be in a tight spot.
Roseanne, however, took the crowd's reaction in stride, not showi g any sign of panic. Infact, she even managed to shoot Nola a reassuring look.
"If I present my tea sommelier certification, how do you plan to apologize for your baseless accusations and rudeness?" Millie scoffed. "If you can actually show it, I'll apologize any way you want. How about that?" "Deal," said Roseanne, ready for this challenge.

door, dressed in a tailored outfit reminiscent of a vintage winery m uniform who quickly approached with small, measured steps. Roseanne had given her bag and sother personal items for safekeeping upon arrival.
The girl smartly handed over the bag.
"Thank you," Roseanne said with a smile.
The girl blushed, murmuring a shy "You're welcome."
Anticipating a situation like this, Roseanne had placed hercertification in a compartment of her bag beforehand.
