Chapter 181: Exam Results

The next morning, Tina woke up to find that Jared Farrell had already prepared breakfast. Her eyes lit up at the sight of the strawberry cake on the table. She hurried over and exclaimed, "Strawberry cake?" Jared handed her a slice of the neatly cut cake, his deep eyes filled with indulgence. "Try it, do you like it?"

After taking a bite, Tina nodded, "It tastes just like it used to. Uncle, your cooking is still as good as ever." Jared's smile deepened at her compliment. He had intended to make it in the afternoon but decided to get up early and make it considering she seemed a bit down the day before. Seeing her contented made him feel satisfied too. "Don't eat too much in the morning, I'll make it for you every day," Jared said softly as he stroked her hair, his fingers weaving through her strands. He chuckled softly, his voice brimming with doting affection, "My girl, whatever you want, I will provide."

Tina looked up at him, the morning sunlight clearly outlining his handsome features. He seemed to have inherited the best aspects of every feature, his face appearing as if it was meticulously sculpted. She suddenly felt that not breaking off the engagement was a good thing, at least seeing his face every day lifted her spirits. Her gaze fell on his thin lips, and a spark ignited within her. She put down her cake and suddenly embraced him, "Uncle, you must not seduce me." Jared was taken aback, "When did I seduce you?" Before he could respond, Tina tiptoed and kissed him, the taste of the cake still on her lips. Jared wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close, his voice husky, "Tina... it's you who are seducing me!"

"Is that so?" Tina looked up, her eyes shimmering with allure, "Then, do you let me seduce you?" Jared stiffened, then suddenly pinned her against the wall, his actions more assertive than his words. The kiss lasted a long time before Jared finally let her go, satisfied.

Tina's face was flushed, and she adjusted her slightly tousled hair, feeling a bit awkward, "I'm going to school now." She thought she must be crazy, always wanting to throw herself at Jared Farrell. She insisted she had no feelings for him. It was definitely not true that she was falling for him. Definitely not!

At Ensford High School, Class 22D's academics had gotten back on track, and the curriculum had resumed as normal. With exams a little over a week away, the entire class was in revision mode. Today was Friday, and the results from the last quiz were out. Tina, looking at the class's results, was very satisfied. She walked into the classroom with the papers, and upon seeing her, all the students of Class 22D stood up and greeted her respectfully, "Miss Reed."

Tina placed the papers on the lectern, her expression serious as she stared at the students, "The quiz results are out." The students tensed up at her stern look. Tina scanned them briefly, her lips curling into a small smile, then picked up the papers to distribute them, "Penelope Chandler, English 109, French 115, Mathematics 110, History 220, last in class, 200th in grade."

The classroom exploded again in shock, but before they could react, Tina announced another name, "Velma Lehman, English 149, French 150, Mathematics 150, History 296, total 745, 1st in
