Chapter 403

55 youchers

When Zinnia returned home, Yannis was already there with dinner ready. He made three dishes and a soup.

“Yannis, what’s wrong with you?” asked Zinnia during dinner.

Zinnia frowned in confusion as she noticed Yannis across the table, who kept stealing glances at her.

She finally put down her fork and asked Yannis what was wrong.

She wondered, ‘Why is he staring at me? It makes me nervous. But I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong lately.‘

“Zinnia, isn’t there anything to tell me?” Yannis folded his hands on the table, with his eyes fixed on her.

“About what?” Zinnia asked hesitantly. She blinked and felt genuinely puzzled.

Yannis said, “I heard you just had exams.”

“Well, yeah.” Zinnia ate her bread and quickly pulled back her hand, which was about to reach for a dish. Feeling guilty, she just kept eating her bread.

She thought, ‘Did he find out I ranked last? It’s embarrassing enough that Mom knew it. How did he find out, too?‘

“So, Zinnia, isn’t there anything you want to tell me?” Yannis asked.

Seeing Zinnia stop picking up any dishes, Yannis grew suspicious and helped her put some food on her plate.

“Well, I don’t think so,” Zinnia replied with hesitation. She stared at the buffalo wing on her plate but was too nervous to take a bite. She just kept eating her bread.

“Really? Nothing at all?” Yannis asked slowly. Seeing Zinnia not eating the buffalo wing, he felt she looked even more guilty.

Zinnia felt like she was sitting on thorns. “Well, Yannis, I don’t think there’s anything I need to tell you.”

She thought worriedly, ‘I only secretly ate some candy and chocolate last night. Did he discover it?

“Zinnia, why do you look so guilty? Did you do something behind my back?” Yannis pressed.

Yannis felt her behavior was even more suspicious. He straightened his back and squinted at her.
