“No, I was just asking casually,” Janessa gave a somewhat insincere smile, then seemed somewhat reluctant to leave.

After that, she began purposely shift the topic, making conversation out of nothing. For instance, she asked, “Have you seen any good movies lately?”

“I’ve been reviewing my lessons every day. When would I have time to watch a movie?” Madelyn responded truthfully.

“Oh… But I’ve always been curious. You used to dislike studying, right? How come you’ve suddenly taken. such a liking to it?” Janessa asked.

“This question is so dull, isn’t it? Isn’t it a given that we should study hard? I certainly don’t want to fail to graduate,” Madelyn playfully retorted. However, inwardly, she was growing a bit impatient.

So, she gently ushered Janessa out, saying, “All right, Janessa, if you don’t have anything else, you should go home first. I still have to review my lessons.”

Janessa wasn’t one to give up that easily. She quickly said, “Madelyn, there’s no rush to review your homework right now. Besides, it’s been a while since we last ate together. How about we have dinner together tonight? Sebastian happens to be here too, and we should invite him as well.”

Upon hearing this, Madelyn couldn’t help but scoff inwardly. She has been wanting to ask that question, right?

Madelyn feigned reluctance, saying, “Oh? It does seem like it’s been a while since we last ate together. However, I’ve caught a cold, and Sebastian told me to rest and not to go out. What should we do?”

After she finished speaking, Madelyn deliberately scratched her neck, acting a bit uncomfortable. In doing so, she allowed her clothing to slip slightly off her left shoulder, revealing a prominent red love bite on her

neck.

Janessa obviously recognized that as a love bite. In an instant, her gaze was as sharp as an arrow, as if she was about to pierce right through Madelyn.

Madelyn, however, seemed completely oblivious, innocently asking, “Janessa, what’s wrong?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.” Janessa abruptly withdrew her gaze. She then struggled to muster a faint smile. “In that case, I’ll leave first. Take good care of yourself, and when you have time, we can have dinner together.”
