Eric said, "Thank you for your concern. Other than having low blood sugar, I can''t do extreme sports. Apart from that, I don''t have any other major problems."

    In Taronia, there were 40 days left until the exam. Every time Irene saw the countdown on the ckboard, her heart would speed up.


    That day, their teacher gave them something more rxing to do. They had to write an essay about their ns after the exam. It could be ns for their future studies or work, or it could be holiday ns for the


    summer.


    Irene gripped her pen and stare at the ckboard nkly. Slowly, she began to write.Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.


    ''After the exams, no matter how my results are, I want to go to Ylore. I have had a look at the flight tickets. Students have 30% off. The flight ticket after the discount is less than forty-five dors. If I start saving now, once I''m done, not only will I have enough to go to Ylore, but I''ll also have enough to go to Aryadelle.


    ''Everything that I can remember about Ylore is fuzzy. The ironic thing is that Ylore is where I''m from. I want to see my country. I want to know more about that country, and what my family went through. ''When I was young, Grandma always asked me to not ask too many questions. She told me not to be curious. However, the seed of curiosity never stopped growing in me. And if I don''t go and have a look, I''ll regret it for the rest of my life.


    ''By then, if I have enough money, I also want to visit Aryadelle. People I miss are still there. I believe that they haven''t forgotten me...''


    After the essay, Irene no longer looked back, because this was a thought that had long appeared in her mind.


    If her grandmother had still been alive, she would have begged her grandmother to allow her to go back there and have a look around.


    In the afternoon, her teacher called her out of ss.


    "Irene, I saw your summer ns. You''ve never traveled that far before. Are you nning to go alone this summer?" Her teacher was worried about her safety.


    Her teacher knew that she and her grandmother had lived together. Her grandmother was not with her now, and it was her teacher''s responsibility to look after her.


    "I traveled plenty when I was younger, but not since I got older, but I''ll be careful," Irene promised her teacher.


    "I''m still worried! You should follow a


    tour group to lore! I''ll help you contact a travel agency. If not, if anything happens to you there, there is no one who can look after you her teacher said seriously. "Go to Ylore, have a look, and return. As for Aryadelle, you can go once you graduate from college. Although student tickets for the summer are not expensive, you have to leave some money for college, right?"


    Irene felt that her teacher was right, so she nodded her head. "Please help me contact a travel agency then."


    "I know a friend who owns a travel


    agency. I''ll ask after school. I''ll let you know once I contact them. Don''t get distracted right now. Prepare well for the exam. Your mock exam results are pretty good. For ordinary people, this exam is the most important opportunity of their lives. If they do well, it will allow them to have a brighter future."


    "Thank you for your guidance. I''ll work hard."


    In the evening, Irene returned to the Woods'' mansion. She had already made her ns. Before her exam, she would quit her job at the Woods'' mansion.


    She had average marks for her mocks. She met the bare minimum to qualify for Turlington University.


    Therefore, before the exam, she had to work harder.


    At that moment, she would return the money she owed Mr. Sam and the butler once she graduated from college. Therefore, she did not need to worry about work. After preparing dinner, she stood by the courtyard of the South Block, waiting for Lucas to return.


    Winter passed. Life returned to thend. Although it was still a little cold this early in spring, it was not a cold that seeped into the bones. Itwas not the cold of winter.


    A jasmine tree grew in the courtyard. She had gotten the gardener to nt it.


    The jasmine tree reached up to Irene''s waist. It was not short, but it was not tall either. She wondered how long it would take for it to blossom.


    Just when she was staring at the jasmine tree, the driver pulled up into the mansion with Lucas.
