After knowing Who She Is They Kneeled novel Chapter 84

Chapter 84

The next day, the sun was bright, but Annelise was still in bed. Outside the clinic, there was already the sound of hammering and banging.

Sanchi came in twice, gesturing by her bedside, but she couldn’t even be bothered to open her eyes.

Not until Madam Whitman called out to her, “Annelise, it’s Thursday. Why aren’t you at school?”

Annelise finally got herself ready and strolled out, looking pretty with a clean, makeup-free face. “I don’t have class this morning.”

Madam Whitman seemed to see right through her and sighed, “If you’re struggling with your studies, just tell Grand- ma. It’s okay.

I heard from your Auntie Zhang that they have tutoring these days. Why don’t we sign you up for one?”

Struggling?

Her?

Hearing this, Sanchi looked up, his eyes fierce like a predator’s.

Annelise smiled and gathered her long hair into a high ponytail, making the beauty mark under her eye even more no- ticeable. “Grandma, there’s no need. I can handle it.”

The old woman was still worried, looking down for her Jitterbug phone. “You were bottom of the class last semester. Your teacher said if your grades are still like this, they’ll call the parents. No, I have to find you a tutor. That boy from the Pennington family is probably a good student. I’ll call him over.”

And just like that, Madam Whitman was already on the phone.

Just then, the wind chime on the door rang, signaling a customer had arrived.

Annelise looked toward the sound and saw the patient she hadn’t seen in three days, standing there tall and elegant.

The man was tall with long legs, his custom-tailored suit accentuating an air of nobility. He had a handsome, refined face, and he raised an eyebrow as if he’d just heard something interesting.

Then, he tilted his head and looked at her with a smile, his expression clearly saying, ‘You? Bottom of the class?’

Annelise: …

In front of others, Madam Whitman would definitely protect her grandchild’s social standing, especially since these were Annelise’s friends.

“You kids have fun. I’ll go inside and talk to the Pennington boy privately.”

The old woman left, Jitterbug phone in hand.

Annelise wasn’t embarrassed at all. She just lifted her chin at the man in the doorway. “Come in.”

Blaine, following behind his young master, still looked shocked. The Miracle Doctor’s grades are this bad?

Annelise saw there was no point in explaining, so she didn’t bother. She just asked the man, “Why haven’t you been here the last couple of days?”

Adrian raised a hand, coughing lightly. He smelled of Mind-altering Incense. “Just been a bit busy.’

“You haven’t been resting well.”

Annelise looked at his face; it was a statement, not a question.

Blaine immediately chimed in, “The young master didn’t get to sleep until five in the morning yesterday!

He’s not feeling well today, he’s been coughing constantly!”

Adrian shot him an indifferent glance.

Blaine fell silent.
