Chapter 18

Chapter 18 Huh ? Noelle looked up , noticing everyones eyes on her .

She quickly finished the food on her plate and asked , Whys everyone staring at me ! Just arcastic snort Damon was the first to speak , letting out a sarcastic Give it a rest , Eli , Damon said .

She didnt even finish middle school , and shes already eighteen .

In a few days , Leia will start college .

So tell me , is Noelle heading to college with Leia or back to middle school ? His words were harsh , but they pointed out the elephant in the room .

Noelle was eighteen college age by any standard .

But with only part of middle school under her belt , she was stuck in an awkward spot too old for middle school , but far from ready for college .

Just then , Leia offered a gentle suggestion , I think Noelle should go back to middle school first .

Build a solid foundation , you know ! Take things step by step .

But at her age , going back to middle school would make Noelle a complete joke .

Before Leia could say more .

Adriel cut her off , his expression cold .

Absolutely not .

If word gets out that Noelles back in middle school , itll be humiliating .

For her and the Anderson family and muttered , Im sorry , Adriel .

I wasnt thinking .

Lela hesitated , guilt flashing across her face as she avoided Adriels gaze .

She bit her lip an Seeing Leia flustered .

Damon jumped in to defend her .

So if middle schools out , what are you suggesting College ! Adriel , do you really think shed fit in there ? Adriel shot back calmly , I never said she should go to college right now ? Then why dismiss Leias idea ? D Damon pressed Before the two could argue further , Bennett stepped in with a smile .

How about this ? We hire a tutor for Noelle .

She can study at home for a and then well see where she stands a year .

If shes ready , maybe she can in start college next year .

Itll give us a reasonable answer if anyone asks go with Bennetts plan , Vincent said , his tone firm .

Lets go Then , he glanced at Damon and added , You scem worked up , Damon .

How about some iced coffee to cool off ? Damon snorted and turned away , clearly annoyed .
