During dinner, Emma's appearance at the dining table as a white swan surprised everyone in the family, but she was immediately scolded by her domineering father."Why are you learning how to dress up at such a young age? You want to go to the school ball in a few days, right? If your test score tomorrow is not a B, you'll have to stay at home obediently and not go anywhere.”
Emma wasn't as sad as she had imagined after being scolded by her father, Winston. She was now far more mature than her age. Although Winston was domineering and dictatorial, he was in fact stubborn and soft-hearted. He cared for her in his own way, so he only agreed and promised,"I will definitely do well tomorrow.”
Winston snorted coldly and began lecturing his brother, Kristan, about how he shouldn't teach his sister such nonsense for no reason. Kristan was lectured like a grandson.
Seeing this scene, Emma wanted to laugh, but she knew that she couldn't laugh out loud. Otherwise, she would be scolded.
The next day, she went to school. There was a test today, which was also a test before the mid-term exam. To be honest, Emma was not confident in her results, and her headache was starting to act up again.
Emma heaved a sigh of relief when she saw all the B's on the report card in the afternoon. When she was about to go home after school, she was stopped by the campus queen, Mathilda Bredt, and her three followers in the corridor. When they saw how beautiful she was today, they were already unhappy and came to pick a fight.
" Hey, Frost." She looked at Emma arrogantly like a peacock.
Emma stared back without showing any weakness."What's the matter, Bredt? Don't you know the way home? Do you need me to help you find a guide dog?”
As if she didn't expect Emma, who had always been weak, to be so tough and even dare to mock her, Mathilda immediately felt angry for a moment, but she quickly suppressed it. She sneered and said,"I just saw that you were a little unhappy after getting your report card.”Then, she took out her report card. On it, every subject's score was A. She said proudly,"I got A's in every subject. Come and see, why don't you let me tutor you?”Then, his tone changed." Sorry, Frost. I was afraid that you would surpass me with my help. But you have a good father, don't you? Everyone knows that the only reason you can study here is because you have a rich father.”
The sarcasm in his words was quite serious. Snow Valley Women's College was originally a school for the young women of various corporations and big families to educate the British aristocracy. In other words, those who could attend here were all rich girls, but Mathilda's family was not as rich as the Frost family.
Emma's results were not very good, but she did not lose. She snorted coldly and began to mock Mathilda's fashion sense.
Just as the two girls were about to start a fight, Ian Kanda walked past them from afar and the two of them shut up at the same time. They didn't want to ruin their impression of Kanda. Of course, Emma was used to doing this subconsciously because of this body, but she did respect this teacher who often took care of her.
When Teacher Kenda passed by the girls, he smiled and said,"Why are you still here? Aren't you going home after school?”
Emma revealed a mature smile and slandered Mathilda.""Mathilda said that an ugly duckling like me doesn't deserve to become a white swan, but I think she's jealous that I'm prettier than her now.”
Mathilda was so angry that she couldn't speak. After all, she was just a young girl, not a transmigrator with a mature mind like Emma.
Mr. Kenda reprimanded Mathilda a few times before letting the matter go. In his opinion, it was normal for girls to compare themselves to each other. He was still thinking about his various immaturity during his rebellious period. Now that he thought about it, it was even funny. Perhaps this experience would become a beautiful memory for Emma and Mathilda in their future youth.
Emma looked at Mathilda provocatively before following Mr. Kenda out of the school building, angering her again.
Bryce, the chauffeur and butler, was already waiting for her at the entrance of the academy in a black Bentley. Emma smiled and greeted him,"" Good afternoon, Mr. Bryce."
"Good afternoon, Miss Emma."
On the way home, Emma's head began to hurt again. The recent headaches were getting more and more intense. She could hear the people around her more clearly, and she could even see some fragmented memories, such as the life of the driver, Bryce, who was in his fifties and had a mustache.
At the family dinner that night, Emma's mother, Hazel Frost, asked her son and three daughters,""Tell me, how was everyone's day today?”
Emma's father, Winston, began to reprimand her brother again.""Hmph, your good son almost revealed the company's trade secrets to our biggest competitor today.”
"Dad, how many times do I have to apologize before you forgive me?"”
" Until I get bored," Winston said coldly.”
"Alright, I give up. I won't try to justify myself.”
Mother Hazel said to her eldest daughter, Adrian, who was on the phone,"Adrian, can you hang up the phone? We're eating."
Adrian hung up." Sorry, Mom. It's a modeling agent. He said they'll make me the next Cindy Croft. Of course, I rejected him. After I graduate from my master's degree, I will go to work at my father's company.”
(Note: Cindy Crawford, famous supermodel, actor.))
Hazel nodded.”"Emma, how was your day?" she asked.”
Emma smiled confidently." I'm doing very well. You know the queen of my school, Mother Mathilda, right? I mocked her fiercely today and made her very angry. However, she couldn't do anything to me.”
Before his mother Hazel could say anything, his father Winston looked at his confident second daughter in surprise. She didn't see the softness and lack of presence from Emma, but only the confidence that came from her bones, so he praised her, which was rare."That's more like it. Our Frost family never falls behind others. Whatever others take from us, we have to take it back double, not swallow it like a punching bag.”
What a capitalist speech. The financial tycoon's style of eating people without spitting out bones was full.
