“Jillian, is this how you solve this problem?” For the first time, Josiah was holding his notebook, asking Jillian about their coursework.

“Ms. Thornton, we’re counting on you for this project proposal! If it’s successful, our Sherritt family will be forever grateful.” Rupert Sherritt pleaded as soon as he saw Madelyn, his face filled with a desperate plea for help.

Madelyn, however, didn’t seem too bothered. “No need to thank me just yet. I can only put in a good word
