Kemp came over half an hour later. When he arrived, Elinor has already had half of her steak. He sat down in a chair, still panting. "Oh my god, the flight was delayed."
"Ha ha, it's not the worst."
She gave him the menu. "Sometimes it can be delayed until the next day, then you can't catch up with today's meal."
After he sat down, the waiter followed in. He casually ordered a spaghetti and looked up at her. "You get fat?"
When Elinor was cutting her steak, she paused and gnashed her teeth, saying, "You're so annoying now after several months. Be clever. Otherwise, I'll also cut you."
Kemp gestured to ask her to spare him. Rankin felt funny. "He has a hard tongue sharp but a soft heart."
"That sounds like a mother."
Kemp muttered.
"Yeah."
Elinor added, "He's just sharp."
"Wow, Elinor, you're bolder now."
Kemp reached his hand to poke her forehead. "You turned bolder than months ago. If you stay longer, will be bolder than now? "
Rankin laughed, "Your sister's disposition is completely different now."
"I am afraid that she will change her face after changing her disposition."
Kemp muttered, "If you had plastic surgery, I would be unable to recognize you after you go back."
"Are you stupid?"
Elinor couldn't help cursing him and then pinched his nose. "Do I need a plastic surgery? What are you thinking about?"
"You even push your luck now!"
He shook off her hand. "Don't regard me as a kid now!"
"I am older than you." She cut a piece of buff and put it into his plate. "You are just into your manhood. In my and Rankin's eyes, you are a younger brother."
This call made him unable to breathe.
His face changed, and he drawled and pretended to be careless. "I don't care that. Anyway, I can protect you now."
She responded with 'Hmm'.
Kemp ate the spaghetti served just now. After finishing it, he took out a bank card from his bag.
Elinor stared for his action.
"Dad gave you."
Kemp handed the bank card to her. "The password is six zeros. You can reset it later."
After Elinor heard this, she accepted it soon. "Why did Dad suddenly give it to me?"
"For you to but a ticket to go home."
Kemp frowned lovingly. Seeing her cry, he also felt distressed. "Yes, Dad said he was also regretful to let us grow up independently. He never expected that you would suffer so much. He asked you to go back after you healed your heart. You're our princess. There will be many people flattering you."
"But..." She pulled out a tissue. "I'm afraid Dad'll lose face."
She made such a big joke at school. She was afraid that the fame of the Sue family will be destroyed because of her bad reputation. After all, the students in the Trinity College are born from rich and powerful families. Those who made fun of her also came from this circle. She fears that her gossip will be known by their parents, impacting on the Donald family and the Sue family.
So she felt guilty, blamed herself and chose to leave here. Time will kill everything, including love or gossips.
She didn't dare to show up until her love and the gossips were erased.
"What are you talking about?"
After Kemp heard her worry, he patted the table angrily.
She got a fright. "What are you doing?"
"Idiot!"
He stepped forward and pressed her shoulder hard.
"You didn't embarrass the Sue family."
His Adam's apple moved up and down. "You are our pride. We have all seen your papers published abroad, Elinor. Dad is really proud of you, and everyone appreciates you."
Her excellence was hidden behind Victor's reputation. Others only knew Victor, Dixon's son, became famous at a very young age, but they knew nothing about the girl following him.
It was unexpected that Elinor published two theses and acquired great achievements. When the news spread to them, everyone got shocked. Is this girl still the one following Victor?
