Chapter 152

Mandy's expression softened a touch upon hearing her daughter's reply. “Next time, giveat heads up, will

you? Otherwise, I'll start to worry.”

“Sure,” Summer murmured, drifting into the living room and collapsing into the plush embrace of the sofa with a

distracted air.

Mandy glanced at Summer, finally registering her daughter's troubled look, and asked with a frown, “What's got

into you? You look like you've lost your spirit.”

Summer hugged a throw pillow to her chest, her legs curled up on the sofa. She didn’t look at her mother as she

spoke in a faint voice. “It's nothing.”

“Is someone at work giving you a hard time?” Mandy probed, her brows knitting tighter.

“No.” Summer shook her head., “Everyone’s been really nice to me.”

Unaccustomed to such a forlorn expression on her daughter's face, Mandy pressed further, “Then did something

happen at school?”

After a pause, as if a particular ncto mind, Mandy's face darkened instantly. “Is it Mirabella? Has she

been bullying you again?”

Summer rested her head on the pillow without a word, her whole demeanor exuding a sense of deep grievance.

Mandy slammed her water glass down on the marble coffee table with a loud smack, “That brat is nothing but

trouble! First, she drove your grandma back to her hometown, and now she’s causing mischief at your school. |

really don’t understand what kind of upbringing she had with the Davis family.”

Aiden, who had just descended from the second floor, jumped at the sound of the glass hitting the table.

Startled, Summer finally looked up, a strained smile tugging at her lips. “Mom, don’t be angry. I'm really okay.”

This only fueled Mandy's ire, “You're just too kind-hearted, letting people walk all over you!”

Mandy reached for her phone, flipping through contacts with a scornful laugh. “My daughter won't be bullied for

nothing. | need to have a word with the Davis family today...”

Summer panicked at the sight, quickly putting down the pillow and snatching the phone before Mandy could dial,

“Mom, it’s really nothing. Don’t get worked up over someone that’s not worth it.”

Mandy frowned, “Summer, givethe phone back this instant.”

Not daring to comply, Summer placed the phone out of reach, sat next to her mother, gently patting her back in

a calming gesture, and whispered, “Mom, I'm serious. It's nothing. Please

After a brief pause. Summer changed the subject. “By the way, our monthly exam results cout today. |

scored 670, ranked tenth in the grade.”

Distracted by this new topic, Mandy's anger dissipated slightly, “Your ranking has improved by a few spots since

the end of the last semester. Not bad.”

Relieved that her mother had dropped the Idea of calling the Davis family, Summer finally let out a sigh of relief.

Aiden, who had been eavesdropping from the staircase, snorted at the mention of her score. “From someone

who needs to cheat to compete in a contest...well, who knows how genuine that 670 is.”

Summer, noticing Aiden, replied with a hint of sarcasm in her voice, “Could you maybe try thinking before you

speak?”

“Sorry, | don’t know what thinking is,” Aiden said with a dismissive wave and a roguish grin.

Summer shook her head in disbelief. “Aiden, you're really a piece of work...”

However, before she could finish, Mandy interrupted, “Enough. Your brother may be thoughtless, but shouldn't

you know better? Why bicker with him?”

Upon hearing this, Summer's heart sank.
