Perhaps it was a good to learn how to cook?
He is so smart and he should be able to pick up the skill in no time, right?
Zion thought to himself. He lowered his head and took a bite of the noodles and it tasted superb.
Soon, he finished a bowl of noodles. He frowned again when he saw that Evangeline had just applied the medicine and hadn't eat the noodles yet.
"Eat up."
"Just a moment."
"You'd better learn to eat up quickly while you're here. You can stay here after I leave. If there's anything, don't hesitate to ask for help. Also, don't get too close to others because your status is special. What if they bully you while I'm not around...”
Speaking of this, Zion suddenly paused.
Bullying her?
Thinking of Evangeline's feistiness, he immediately shut his mouth silently.
Evangeline was still waiting for him to continue when she saw him remained silent. She couldn't help asking, "If I've been bullied, can I get a revenge?"
"Yes."
Zion nodded. He couldn't help but think of the first time he had been entangled in a fight by Evangeline.
Well, he was worrying too much.
"You can always ask if you're unsure of anything."
"Oh."
Zion didn't know what else to say. He sighed and said, "I'm leaving soon, shall we get started on the work?"
"Clarissa has already told me about it. I'm all ready to do it."
"Then go ahead."
Zion felt much more at ease.
So far, the one who could keep up with him was Sissaye and Emily. Although Evangeline said that she had been studying computer networking for the past few years, Zion did not think that her skills were on par as Emily's.
Rather than saying that he trusted Evangeline, it was more to say that he trusted Emily's skills.
However, what surprised him was Evangeline's attitude.
He knew that if Sissaye wanted to come over, she needed to report and apply from the higher-ups. However, considering Benson's attitude, he preferred Uncle Sanchez's support.
"Be careful. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay."
Evangeline laughed instead.
Zion's impression of her had improved by leaps and bounds since her arrival. She was doing very well and she should maintain it.
Although Evangeline left, Zion was still ill at ease.
He quickly sent a message to Emily.
"Take care of your sister. She's kinds impulsive. You'd better find someone to block her way. Also, you should keep in touch with the helper, he should have a plan in mind."
"I know, but aren't you looking down on my sister too much? She has been working hard in the past two years."
Emily couldn't help but feel aggrieved for her sister.
She was well aware of Evangeline's hard work in the past two years. Emily knew the reason she had done this. Wasn't it for the sake of Zion?
D*mned it!
He was just a jerk!
If she could not find a man like her daddy in the future, she would rather be alone than suffer.
