    Chapter 66


    The door mmed shut with a loud bang. Ste couldn’t surmise what Roger was feeling from his


    expressions. She followed him quietly into the living room and sat on the sofa.


    Roger had been hanging his head low all the while. Then suddenly, he raised up his head and turned to


    his sister.


    “Do you like Professor Hall, Sis?” he asked.


    “What did you just say?!” Ste responded in shock. Roger said nothing. He sat next to his sister and


    leaned on her shoulder. He was about six feet tall, and when he leaned on his sister like that, he looked


    like a big bear leaning against a little rabbit for support. “What kind of man do you like, Sis?” he asked


    again. Ste realized then that Roger had been overthinking. “Don’t worry, Roger,” she assured


    him.”There’s absolutely nothing going on between your professor and me.” “It didn’t look like Professor


    Hall thought the same way, though… “Don’t you remember what he said?” Ste asked with a smile.


    “He merely thought that I looked pretty, that’s all. Your sister isn’t so irresistible that any man who sees


    me would fall for me, you know?” “Well, I don’t care what other people think,” Roger argued earnestly.


    “To me, you’re the prettiest woman in the world!”…


    Ste knew that her brother was just ttering her. Nheless, those words still cheered her up a lot.


    “Don’t worry about all these things, Roger,” she told him. “Just focus on your studies. He’s still your


    professor, you know, so you must be respectful. Understood?” “I know all that, but if he really does


    fancy you, i definitely won’t forgive him!” replied Roger, who felt a slight headacheing on. “Won’t


    forgive him?”countered Ste. “And what will you do, huh? So what if he does like me? It’s not like he’ll


    ever make a move.”

    Ste sighed, then added, “You said it before, didn’t you? You’re an adult now, and you can’t be brash


    and do whatever you want. I know you mean well, but we may not always be able to bear the


    consequences of your impulsiveness.”


    Roger’s lips quivered. He recalled when he almost hurt Guinevere when he saw Weston apany


    her to the hospital for a maternity check-up. It was his sister who bore the grave consequences of his


    action.


    Ste had been so patient with him. Ever since their parents died, it was her who had been the one to


    shoulder all the responsibilities in supporting their family.


    Roger closed his eyes. “I’m sorry, Sis,” he said in a trembling voice. “You’ve really been through so


    much because of


    me ?


    Ste went back to work as usual. It was as if the appearance of Weston and Guinevere was nothing


    but a fading memory. Soon, her life gradually went back to normal.


    Yvonne had just got back from a business trip, and the first thing she did was to find Ste. “I heard


    Guinevere came here to see you,” she inquired. “Did she give you any trouble?” “No,” Ste shook her


    head. “She just invited me to have a cup of coffee with her, and she told me all about the woman who


    looked exactly like me.”


    “What?!” Yvonne gasped, her expression instantly changing. “What’s wrong with her?! But you’re not


    Ste! How dare she take out her anger for Ste on you!”


    Although Yvonne sometimes confused E with Ste, she still respected the fact that they were two


    different people and made sure not to treat them as if they were the same person. “Don’t worry,” Ste


    assured Yvonne. “She hasn’t been back ever since. Besides, after the day she came here, the parents


    all lined up to have their children learn dancing with me. I’ve made a lot of money because of her, so I


    should be thanking Guinevere if anything!” “I’m d you look at it that way,” Yvonne sighed in relief. “I


    was worried you’d be upset.”


    “Why should I be upset about making money? I’m overjoyed!”


    Yvonneughed.


    “Well, you’re in luck again today,” Yvonne continued. “There’s something else that might cheer you up


    even more.”


    “Really?”

    “Yeah! We justunched a new private tutoring service. You’ll be able to make double or even triple the


    money you make teaching sses at the training center. You can check it out if you have the time.”


    That day, before going home, Ste contacted the person in charge of the private tutoring service right


    away. Since Yvonne was the head of thepany, she wouldn’t be involved in trivial administerial


    matters like this, although she would sometimes help make things much easier for Ste.
