    With cameras all around, Milly couldn’t decline. She forced a smile. “Sure.”


    Aria’s lips curved slightly as she asked, “Why do you always submit your exam papers early? Is


    it due to your confidence in your abilities or a desire for camera attention?”


    Milly furrowed her brows but kept her cool.


    Predictably, the questions were pointed, designed to thrust her into the limelight.


    Drawing on her past experiences with reporters, Milly smiled and responded, “The questions are straightforward. Once you’re done,


    there’s no point in sticking around. Do you expect me to sit in the exam room and doze off?”


    Aria pressed on, “So, you find all the subjects easy?”


    Milly nodded. “Yes.”


    It was the truth. She effortlessly sailed through the science subjects, especially physics, finishing in record. time.


    She’d have handed in her paper earlier, but it was against the rules. She could only do it thirty minutes before the time came to an end.


    Aria, however, didn’t think so. Instead, there was disdain in her eyes. She obviously didn’t buy the story. “So you think you’lle out as the state’s top s

    The tension was not missed on the cameraman. He quickly coughed, telling Aria to stop toeing the line.

    “To earn money,” Milly admitted.


    Aria’s eyes widened in disbelief. Do you need money?”


    Milly affirmed with a nod. “Yes.”

    Financial uncertainty loomed over the Buts, making saving imperative for their future security.


    In this perspective, she really needed money.


    That thought was not made known to Aria. Looking at Milly again, she felt her anger dissipating.

    The gesture came as a surprise. Why’s he giving me this out of nowhere?


    “It’s alright, Jordan. I’ve saved up all the pocket money you gave me. I have enough to spare, so I don’t need this.”


    It was just a simple reply, but Jordan thought differently. His heart sank into his belly.

    Anthony noticed Milly suddenly stop and looked puzzled. He stepped around her and opened the door, “Why are you just standing there? Let’s go in.”
