    Renee''s words moved Joanne.


    At first, Joanne hesitated to stay at Everheart Manor. Although Margaret was nice and made nutritious herbal soup for her every day, she couldn''t stay there in peace. She wanted to grab a chance to leave.


    Now, she decided to shamelessly stay there for a long time so she could get into college.


    At least, she would stay there until she sessfully got into college. Then, it would be more convenient for Renee to teach her.


    "Are you...willing to teach me?" Joanne tried to confirm with Renee, uncertain.


    "Of course!" Renee nodded. "I have no reason to not teach you. Try and think about it this way. My brother has done you wrong and ruined your career. As his sister, I should try and make it up to you on his behalf. Plus... sincerely take you as my best friend, whether you believe me or are willing about it. I''m always sincere with my best friends."


    "I know."


    Joanne was moved to tears, and couldn''t hide how touched she was.


    "I once felt I was very unlucky to run into a guy like your brother. But now, I feel I''m lucky too. At the very least, I got to know you because of him... I finally got to know that there''s such a nice person in this world. You and Mr. Hunt are wonderful. No wonder you two are such a perfect match and love each other so much.


    Renee cleared her throat, her enthusiasm dampened.


    She said awkwardly, "I''m fine with it if you say I''m a nice person, but please don''t mention that guy or feel that we''re a perfect match. You''re belittling me."Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    "Uh, I didn''t mean that. I just felt that..." Realizing she had said the wrong thing, Joanne hurriedly tried to exin herself.


    "Okay, I was just joking with you!" Renee casuallyughed and added gently, "You''re recovering just fine. Keep resting here. I''ll order the textbooks for youter. When they''re here, we''ll start our lessons systematically. Is that okay with you?"


    "Oh, that''s great!"


    Joanne covered her lips and burst into tears, moved. She couldn''t believe she could still look forward to the future after so many years. She could even fulfill her longstanding dream of going to college...


    If Stefan had given her a second chance, then Renee had given her a third chance.


    Yes, she was unlucky. But currently, she found herself very lucky.


    Afterforting Joanne, Renee exited the room.


    As expected, Quinton was standing at the door and frowning. "What did you guys talk about in there? You guys talked for such a long time."


    "Come and take a walk with me in the garden. I''ll tell you everything."


    Then, Renee walked straight toward the garden.


    It was the season of osmanthus in October. When Quinton rebuilt Everheart Manor, he purposely nted many osmanthus trees in the manor. He loved its fragrance, and the osmanthus could calm the nerves and rx the minds.
