Chapter 3424 Slip In A Bit Of Praise For Herself Too

"What are you spacing out for?" Allison waited a few seconds, but when she saw that Sophian still had not taken the scarf, she turned to look at her, only to find her staring blankly at Lanie. She was clearly displeased.

Of course, she knew Lanie looked like Luke, but did she really have to stare at him like that?

Sophian came back to her senses and quickly took the scarf, fumbling to explain, "I just think Young Master Blanche looks a lot like Mr. Crawford."

Allison rolled her eyes. "Well, duh. They're father and son. How could they not look alike?"

Sophian let out an awkward chuckle and said nothing more.

Turning back, Allison softened her expression as she looked at Lanie. "Lanie, dear, tell me— what are you reading?"

Lanie held up his book and replied, "Grandma, I'm reading a medical book."

Allison froze for a moment. A medical book?

A bad feeling crept up on her. "Why are you reading medical books?"

"I think they're interesting," answered Lanie, a little confused by her reaction. Why could he not read medical books?

It was just reading. Besides, his father never said anything about it.

Allison frowned and pondered for a moment before asking, "How did you do on your final exams this semester?"

"Rainie, Tommy, and I all got perfect scores," answered Lanie.

"Perfect scores?" Allison's face lit up with a broad smile.

However, Sophian, who was beside them, was completely stunned. "Perfect scores? That's amazing!"

Allison rolled her eyes at her. "Why are you making such a big deal out of it?"

Sophian awkwardly explained, "No, I just think Young Master Blanche is really impressive. I have a nephew who's the same age as him, but he only got around 90 this semester."
