Chapter 226

Beatrice stormed off in a huff, leaving Agnes lying in bed, feeling miserable and clueless about what to do next.

The next day, being the weekend, Agnes had no school, so she slept in until noon. Apart from grabbing some lunch, she spent the entire day holed up in her room, not venturing outside

However, to her surprise, it was Beatrice standing there. Beatrice appeared to be in high spirits, a big grin plastered on her face as she said, “Agnes, let’s go to the dining room for dinner. My mom cooked today, and she whipped up all your favorite dishes.”
