From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea ) novel Chapter 311

The children were so scared, their faces turned as white as a sheet. Just then, a middle-aged woman burst through the crowd, clutching her child tightly. “Oh, sweetie, are you alright? You scared the living daylights out of me!” she exclaimed. Turning to Rebecca, she added, “Miss, I can’t thank you enough! If it wasn’t for you, my boy might not be here today!”

“Thank you so much!” she repeated.

Rebecca smiled and replied, “It’s nothing, but you really need to keep an eye on your children, especially when crossing the street!”

“Absolutely, we will!” the woman said, profusely thanking her again before leaving with her child.

Daniel watched the scene in amazement. “You… you don’t know them?” he asked, bewildered.

Rebecca shook her head slightly.

Daniel was even more astonished. He had thought the boy was one of Rebecca’s relatives. To think that Rebecca didn’t even know him! For someone to do such a thing for a stranger showed just how kind-hearted Rebecca truly was. He hadn’t misjudged her!

A look of admiration flashed in Daniel’s eyes. “Ms. Morris, are you okay? Let me take you to the hospital to get checked out.”

Rebecca shook her head, “Oh, come on, I’m not that fragile. Mr. Robinson, don’t worry about me, I’m perfectly fine.”

Daniel persisted, “Still, you had quite a scare today. Let me take Ms. Morris out for a meal; I’d feel terrible otherwise.”

Faced with Daniel’s invitation, Rebecca couldn’t refuse and reluctantly agreed. At that moment, a voice echoed in Rebecca’s mind.

[Host, congratulations! Daniel’s favorability towards you has increased to 85%!]

Rebecca smirked. Nothing she set her sights on could ever escape her grasp. Daniel was just a stepping stone for her.
