God knows how embarrassed she was. She couldn't explain it to Mrs. Geoffrey, and when she was forced to drink the soup, she really wanted to find a hole to bury herself in.
Finally, a week later, at lunch today, Mrs. Geoffrey didn't force her to drink the soup. But just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Mrs. Geoffrey say, "Becca, I have to go out today and I may be back very late. You be a good girl and stay home, and I'll have Howard come over tonight."
"What... what?" Rebecca Quentin's eyes widened in shock. She had tried to speak, but choked on her food, temporarily unable to say anything.
Mrs. Geoffrey thought Rebecca had choked from eating too quickly and patted her back gently, saying with concern, "You're a grown woman now; how can you still be so careless when eating..."
「In the afternoon」
Rebecca paced back and forth in her room.
What should I do? What should I do?
