Chapter 40 Marian started trying to blend in with the other kids. At first, the children were happy to see her willing to talk. Even the teacher thought Marian had just been nervous on her first day and that's why she hadn't spoken much. Now, on her second day, she was actively engaging with the other kids, which the teacher saw as a big improvement. The teacher even reminded the other children to be kind and include Marian.
So, despite the bad first impression, the kids were still willing to play with her. But as twent on, they began to notice something: no matter what gthey played, Marian always tried to dominate.
For example, during group activities, she always wanted to be the leader, bossing everyone around. If another child didn't know a word, she'd be the first to call them stupid.
By the end of the morning, every kid in her study group had been insulted at least once. She had a whole arsenal of insults: calling one kid dumb, another clueless, and yet another "cross-eyed." The kids she insulted were the sones who had eagerly welcomed her earlier. In just two classes, their enthusiasm for Marian had completely evaporated.
A few of the kids secretly discussed the situation and, during lunch, approached the teacher to say they didn't want to be in Marian's group anymore. The teacher asked why but didn't think too much of it, assuming it was just a personality clash. She moved Marian to a different group.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the new group, Marian continued with the sbehavior. She loved showing off and had a knack for putting others down.
But these kids weren't pushovers. If they'd grown up in households where they were constantly belittled, maybe Marian's tactics would've worked. But these children cfrom wealthy, influential families and had been treated like little emperors and empresses since birth. They weren't about to let Marian boss them around. Instead of falling in line, they started to dislike her. By the end of the day, Marian had managed to alienate half the class. The second group of kids also banded together and asked the teacher to move Marian out of their group. The teacher was. puzzled but agreed, moving Marian to a third group.
There were only four groups in the class, with seven kids in each. After being shuffled around so much, Marian began to realize her approach might be the problem. So, in the third group, she changed her strategy.
She held back her urge to show off and insult others, keeping her mouth shut and behaving herself. For the rest of the day, the kids in the third group got along with her without further complaints, and no one asked to switch groups Still, managing to upset half the class in one day was quite the achievement again After school, as Marian left the classroom, she wasn't surprised to see Yvonne surrounded by a group of kids from another class.
They were all chatting and laughing, with Yvonne at the center like a little celebrity. When they reached the school gate, the kids started saying goodbye to Yvonne, waving as their nannies and drivers led them away.
"Bye, Yvonne!" "See you tomorrow!" "No, see you after the weekend." Yvonne's desk mate, Anna Lawson, held onto Yvonne's hand before leaving. "Yvonne, you promised you'd cto my house on Sunday, Don't forget!" Yvonne nodded seriously, her voice soft and sweet. "I'll make sure Jeremy takesto your house, Anna!" Satisfied, Anna was carried away by her nanny. Yvonne then spotted her family's car and ran over, her little backpack 1/2 26 Mar Chapter 40 bouncing behind her.
Jeremy She opened the car door and was surprised to see someone else inside besides Jeremy-Oliver, the boy from the Yates.
Oliver's feelings toward Yvonne were complicated. He sighed inwardly, filled with regret. If things hadn't gone wrong the day, he would've been the one picking Yvonne up from school.
Jeremy, as if reading Oliver's mind, pulled Yvonne into his lap and ruffled her hair. He asked her about her day, and Yvonne answered every question obediently, sitting still like a little doll.
Meanwhile, Marian was picked up by her driver. She noticed Oliver wasn't in the car and asked, "Where's Oliver?" The driver explained. “Oliver went with the Adler family's fourth son to see their new puppy" A flash of worry crossed Marian's face. A puppy? Is it the one from the orphanage? Did the Adlers adopt it, or did Dani give it to them! Her mind raced. What if my actions are about to be exposed? The thought terrified her. But as she thought it over, she realized something didn't add up. If the Adler family had real evidence, they would've already told her family. And so far, she hadn't heard anything. Nina still treated her with indulgence, so nothing seemed to have gone wrong... yet.
Still, she knew she had to distance her family from the orphanage to avoid anything she couldn't control.
To prevent Oliver from adopting a dog from the orphanage, Marian threw a tantrum as soon as she got home, demanding that Nina buy her a puppy. Nina, unable to resist her pleas, reluctantly agreed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat evening, at the Adler residence, Oliver couldn't help but notice how different the house felt compared to his last visit. The Adlers hused to feel cold and lifeless, but now it was filled with the scent of flowers, and a little puppy was running around, making the place feel warm and lively.
Oliver couldn't help but think of his own family. They used to be so close-knit, the envy of everyone. His easygoing dad, his gentle mom, and his laid-back older brother. Sure, his brother wasn't perfect, but their hhad always been full of love.
Now, with Marian around, things felt off. His dad was wrapped around mom Marian's finger, his gem was blind to her faults, and Marian herself was becoming more and more unreasonable. Oliver felt suffocated every the went home. Jeremy patted Oliver's shoulder sympathetically. He couldn't fully relate, but he offered swords of comfort.
Just then, Kelvin appeared at the top of the stairs. "Yvonne," he called, his voice calm but slightly exasperated. "The puppy's in my room again."
Yvonne shot up like a rocket and dashed upstairs, her little voice m echoing through the house. I'm coming, Daddy!" Jeremy and Oliver, sitting downstairs, felt a gust of wind rush past them. They exchanged confused looks.
