Chapter 194 194: I know you lied

"Don't you think eating dessert before dinner is a weird process?" Gracey remarked, taking a bite of her ice cream.

"It is, but I thought we needed to chill a little after this tiring day" replies Daniel.

They continued to eat from their bucket until it was empty, but Daniel was not ready to leave.

"What, you still don't want to go?" When she asked, he nodded.

"So, what should we do? I told you there was still a lot for me to study. Even you need to prepare, right?" She spoke, and he sighed in return.

"Gracey, why are you so worried about your exam performance?" He added, "I am confident you will do your best," and she furrowed her brow.

"That will only happen if I am consistent. Topping the chart is not an improbable feat; you forecast it and it happens. You must work hard. Furthermore, don't you wish to reclaim your performance, or do you still plan on following the same notion of your father cutting your allowance?"

Daniel gaped at Gracey, who giggled at his adorable reaction.

"How did you know that?" He asked, his face flushed with embarrassment.

" Eveline told me. She said, your father cut your allowance as a punishment because of your low grades in the last semester," Gracey said it normally which made him frown.

"And you believe that's fine. Because you seem so comfortable talking about it," he asked, ignoring the embarrassment he had just felt.

"No not at all, but if you still continue to keep yourself ignoring his actions then maybe you will lose that motivation in life." She said, confusing him.

"I'm not suggesting your father's actions were correct, but what you're doing now is also incorrect. Every parent wants their children to have a great profession, and that requires studying and achieving goals. If you continue to disregard your academics, how can you be more passionate and ambitious in all you do?"

Daniel's lips parted as his mind processed her good remarks. She happened to say the same words as Gabriel, but in a different way.

He was not being disrespectful to his father's comments; he simply wanted to balance his time by not burdening himself. He was confident, but he didn't want to appear overconfident.

"Just because I act like a child does not mean that I don't comprehend everything. I do, but I also don't want to miss out on life because I'm afraid of being left behind." This time, Gracey was perplexed by his statements.

For the second time, she noticed how thoughtful Daniel sounded. He might be a year younger than her, but his thoughts were always sophisticated.

She might think of him as a careless person who doesn't care about other people's opinions, but she was mistaken since he cared more than he let on. His approach was just different from hers, which drew her closer to him.

Gracey continued to admire him, his face discreet, but gradually a smile appeared on his lips.
