Fortunately, they managed to get there in time, but since Juniper was sleepy, she kept dozing off during ss. Eventually, she fell asleep when Andy was lecturing. Andy noticed it, and he coughed. "Juniper, tel me about point DU-24, where it''s located, and what it does."


    Instantly, Juniper jolted awake. "DU-24... DU-24... I''m sorry, Master Werner. I fell asleep."


    It was the first time she couldn''t answer a question. She might not have a perfect memory like Jameson, but she was smart enough to memorize the acupoints. All it would take was for her to read up on them one or two times, and she would have memorized them.


    "You seem listless today. Why?" Andy wasn''t angry. Instead, he pinched his goatee while looking at the girl.


    "Because Mommy wanted to make an apple piest night. I waited for her because I wanted to eat it, then I messed around with my brothers before I went to sleep," Juniper answered honestly.


    "You realize you have ss today?"


    "Yes." Juniper blinked innocently.


    "And yet you didn''t sleep early, all because you wanted to eat. You sleptte despite knowing you have ss today. You''ve wasted your time, and mine as well. Come here." Juniper went up to him, then Andy brandished a ruler. He always had that with him, but since Juniper was smart and managed to answer every question, he never used it on her. "Now, give me your hand."


    Juniper pouted, hiding her hand behind her back, refusing to get punished.


    "You''ll get off with three if you show me your hand now, but keep this up and you''re going to get ten hits. The choice is yours."


    Hence, Juniper slowly showed him her hand, then Andy held it in front of him. "Remember to stay steadfast and never give in to temptation. That''s the key to sess. Get it?"


    "Yes."


    Andy hit her palm three times, and


    that caused Juniper''s hand to swell.


    The pain made her cry, but Andy said, "Wife your tears and read through what I taught you today. Crying solves nothing. You''d better starting up with a way topensate for our wasted time." This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Left with no other choice, Juniper went back to her seat and wiped her tears away.


    Meanwhile, Selena had been waiting since she was done making dinner. Juniper was supposed toe back at seven, but it was already eight, and she wasn''t back yet. Did something happen? "You two go ahead," she told the boys.


    The boys went to the dining room right away.


    "Should we wait for her?" Joaquin was worried about Juniper.


    "No. You two go ahead. I''ll wait for her myself."


    "Then we''ll wait too."


    Selena gave them a proud look. "It''s fine. You two go ahead. Don''t want you boys to starve now." She noticed they were starting to get hungry. "Go ahead."


    After that, the boys dug in. Selena


    then called the driver, only to find out that Juniper was let offte that day. He told her she might have to wait for another half an hour, but then they ran into congested traffic. Because of that, Juniper only came back when it was almost nine.


    "You''re back, Juniper. I bet you''re hungry. I''ll make some bento for you next time, alright? It''s dinner time now, so wash your hands ande eat."


    Juniper looked upset, but she


    followed her mother''s orders. Then, Selena asked the servant to heat the food up. Juniper went for the bread, but since it was hot, and her hand was swollen, the pain jolted her, making her lose her grip on the bread.
