From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea ) novel Chapter 442

Two hours later, the yacht docked smoothly at the pier.

Sherman's car was parked in a nearby lot, and he offered to drive Anthea back home.

Soon enough, they arrived at the Yeager family's neighborhood.

Sherman's gaze fell on the rearview mirror.

Reflected in the mirror were two young people sipping on iced lattes.

Them again?

Sherman's brow furrowed slightly.

After getting out of the car, Anthea invited Sherman in for a cup of tea.

Sherman accepted politely.

In truth, there was nothing Anthea could request that Sherman could resist.

Following Anthea to the front door, she rang the bell.

The door was opened by Little White, "Welcome back, the universe's most beautiful Annie! Have you missed the universe's smartest Little White these past few days?"

Anthea glanced awkwardly at Sherman, "This is our family's robot."

Sherman nodded slightly, his face calm, though internally he found the robot's manner of speaking eerily similar to Anthea's...

An illusion?

Little White immediately greeted Sherman, "Greetings, esteemed guest. I am the universe's smartest Little White, delighted to meet you."

"Hello." Sherman gave a slight nod.

Once inside, Little White busied itself pouring water for Sherman.

Sherman, sitting on the couch, looked up at Anthea, "Your robot's pretty smart. Is it a robotic butler?"

In the country, only butler-type robots were this intelligent.

"Not really!" Little White, carrying a glass of water, approached Sherman, "I'm just a humble vacuum robot!"

Anthea nodded, "Yep, just a vacuum robot."

Sherman: "???" Vacuum robots serve drinks and make small talk now?

After sitting for a while at the Yeager's, Sherman decided to leave.

Stepping outside, he saw the young couple from earlier standing by a gazebo, watching two elders play chess.

And their location offered a clear view of the Yeager family's window.

Sherman's frown deepened, and he sent a message on his phone.

Then he got into his car and drove away.
