Chapter 62
Zachary stormed upstairs, Just as he reached his room, Edith stepped out, heaming at him. She was obviously in a great mood.
Zachary said awkwardly. “What’s so funny?”
Edith tossed the exercises in her hand at him and said, “This is your homework for today. You can’t go to bed until you finish it.”
Zachary resisted the urge to throw the workbook on the floor and flipped to the first page, the first question was a multiple–choice one, matching rate characters to their pronunciations.
Honestly, he might have seen these characters before, but never knew how to pronounce them. But somehow, he just workbook gave him the same feeling as the math one from a few days agu.
Zachary looked up and asked, “Where did you get this workbook?”
Edith said with a smile, “That’s a secret. Just do your homework. I know you’ll get a great score on this month’s test.”
She pushed Zachary into his room and then knocked on Joseph’s door. After several knocks, there was no answer.
the right arower. This
Edith reached out and turned the doorknob. The room was completely empty. Even at this hour, Joseph still hadn’t come back. Zachary said, gloating, “He doesn’t have evening classes, if he’s not home this late, he must be at the internet cafe playing games.”
Edith smacked him on the back of the head. “Mind your own business and do your homework!”
Zachary almost shot back at her. He thought, Joseph is also my brother. How could looking out for him be considered meddling? By that logic, she is butting into my business every single day, then.
But in the end, Zachary was too intimidated by Edith’s lighting skills to say a word. He just hugged the workbook and quietly went back to his room to do his homework
Edith took the test papers and headed downstairs. Vincent and Karen were already in the study, bickering again. She sat down on the edge of the sola and was just about to focus on her studies when the system’s voice rang out
System: [New mission: A proper heiress should be kind and loving to her siblings. Please bandage your brother’s wound.
Edith frowned. She glanced outside the villa and spotted the car Joseph always rode in parked at the gate. Joseph opened the door and got out,
As soon as he walked into the living room and met Edith’s sharp gaze, he suddenly felt guilty and quickly explained, “A classmate asked me to go to his place to do homework, so I got back a bit late”
Edith held out her hand. “Where’s your homework?”
Joseph hurriedly unzipped his backpack, pulled out his workbook, and handed it over, He did go over to do homework and play some games by the way. but he ended up getting tricked,
Fortunately, he’d managed to get about half of the homework done, so technically, he wasn’t lying
Edith Eipped open his workbook and thought, “Only two math problems are finished. No way that took him almost four hours, right? Since the system wanted me to bandage a wound, Joseph must’ve gotten hurt.
Then she caught him off guard by suddenly grabbing his wrist.
“Ouch!” Joseph yelped, and his face twisted in pain. He tried to dodge Edith’s touch, pulling his arm away as fast as he could.
Edith tossed the workbook onto the sola, at him down firmly, and rolled up his sleeve.

Chapter 62
The skin on his elbow was scraped raw, and the blood hadn’t been cleaned up. His white thirt was damed with quite a bit of bindon
alarming.
With a serious look, she fetched the first aid kit, disinfected his wound, and carefully applied three band aids.
System: Mission completed. Reward one box of candy.
Edith reached into her pocket, and sure enough, there was a box of candy in there–exactly the same as last time. She really had no use for this stuf
Seeing Edith stay quiet, Joseph felt even more guilty. “E Edith, I just tripped and fell it’s nothing”
Edith took out a candy and stuck one right into his mouth. She moved so fast that Joseph barely realized what was happening before this mouth was suddenly filled with a burst of sweetness.
Joseph thought, ‘Edith actually fed me a candy? it seriously tastes like the best candy I’ve ever had
“Spill it. What happened?” Edith said in a calm voice
If she hadn’t asked, it might’ve been fine: But as soon as she did, Joseph’s eyes suddenly turned moist, making him look like a le bunny who’d just been bullied. “It was Warren Reed from sixth grade. He’s been picking on me.”
Edith suddenly realized that these candies might actually be useful. They could get even the most rebellious kids to tell the truth–definitely the perfect weapon for dealing with Zachary and Joseph.
She kept asking, “Why is Warren picking on you?”
“I really don’t know.” Joseph shook his head. “Last time, on my way home, he brought a bunch of sixth graders to chase me. You showed up just in time. so he didn’t catch me.
Tonight, I went to a classmate’s house to do homework, and he suddenly barged in with those guys and told them to beat me up. Luckily, I managed to
run away.”
Even though he ran fast, he still got punched a few times. While running, he tripped and scraped his elbow, it hurt like hell Edith narrowed her eyes. That night, when she went out looking for Joseph, she did see a bunch of kids chasing after him.
She thought. Warren Reed? This name sounded kind of familiar. Sixth grade Wail that’s Noreen’s younger brother!”
In her previous lite, Warren had a massive crush on Hallie. He was basically her most loyal simp. But things didn’t end well for him.
After all that greveling, he wound up with absolutely nothing to show for it, and even got disowned by the Reed family in the end.
The next day at school, Edith pulled Noreen aside outside the classroom. Noreen was kind of baffled. After what happened to her, nobody in class had bothered to talk to her at all.
She thought, “Wait, does Edith want to be friends with me? Sure, things have been pretty ugly between us before, and I’ve even been shoved into a sink and forced to swallow some dirty water.
“But if Edith is actually reaching out to me now, I guess I can let bygones be bygones
is Warren Reed your brother?” Edth asked direct
Noreen blinked in confusion. She thought, Aren’t we supposed to be making friends? Why is she suddenly asking about my brother?”
Then she nodded.
“Your brother brought some guys and beat up my brother,” Edith said as she crossed her arms. “If you can’t sort this out, I’ll have to get your parents involved.”

Noreen finally realized what was going on Back when the and Halle were still besties, she had told Warren to run up some guys and beat up josept. But after she and Hallie fell out, she totally forgot to tell Warren to call it oft
Noreen thought. If Edith brought this up to Dad and Mom, Warren that jerk would for sure rat me out. Dad and Mom are already at odds with the Lovett family because of my issue.
“If this tiny thing blew up as well, Morn would absolutely!
“I’ll have him come to school tonight to apologize to you,” Noreen said, finally giving in “He can even bring some apology gifts. Can we just call it even after that?”
“No need to apologize to me,” Edith replied coolly “Tell your brother to go to the fourth grade and apologize to my brother face to face with that turned and walked back into the classroom.
Noreen stomped her foot in frustration. She thought, “Ugh, Warren can’t do anything right. He only ever makes things worse: Edith and I have finally started getting along, but now, thanks to him, things are back to rock bottom”
“Wait a minute Noreen snapped back to her senses. ‘Why do I even care about being close to Edith? Hallie is a brat, and so is Edith should just stay far away from them!”
