“I originally wanted to submit my thesis.”

“But then this girl named Emma showed up at school. She’s so young, but she’s already won a bunch of awards.”

“She stole all the spotlight from me.”

Ruby didn’t really agree with her daughter’s mindset.

“You shouldn’t let this upset you.”

Sandy didn’t understand. “Mom, why shouldn’t I be mad? Even Clayton is hanging around her!”

Ruby smiled and leaned back in her chair.

“Actually, this really isn’t as serious as you think.”

“First, I’ve never heard of the Quintanas. They’re probably not some wealthy family.”

“So no matter how talented Emma is, her end goal is probably just to join the Nolan Group and work for us.”

As she said this, Ruby couldn’t help but laugh.

“Would you get angry at the top salesperson of the year?”

Sandy hadn’t thought of it that way.

Her perspective shifted in an instant.

“Mom, you’re right as always.”

She smiled as the gloom in her heart lifted.

Seeing that she had figured it out, Ruby dropped that random person from her thoughts.

“Mom, but there’s still one problem–Dad’s side.”

Sandy sighed again.

“Dad’s been reaching out to his old friends lately.”

She had overheard this by chance while passing by Oscar’s room.

Before Oscar got sick, he had invested in a mine overseas.

The mine hadn’t even been developed yet when he fell ill and couldn’t get out of bed.

Now that he was awake, he was obviously thinking about his past regrets.

But Sandy still didn’t get it.

A cold glint flashed in Ruby’s eyes.

“I know about this Alright, you should head back to school now.”

Sandy stood up and stretched lazily.

One more thing.

Ruby seemed to suddenly remember something and called out to Sandy.

Sandy turned back. “Mom, what is it?”

“Stay away from Kayla.”

Sandy looked totally confused.

“We’ve grown up together, and she wouldn’t do anything bad to me.”

“The Nolans are about to compete with the Lawrences for something. Sandy, you should know that in this world, there are no real friends–only real interests exist.”

Sandy’s face fell instantly.

Ruby reminded her again.

“At Riverview University, make sure to hang out more with Clayton. His research topic is going to be the next big thing.”

Thinking of Clayton’s looks, Sandy felt a flutter in her heart.

“What if he became your son–in–law?”

Ruby smiled.

“If that could happen, it would be perfect.”

Sandy’s confidence skyrocketed in an instant.

Lately, she had been messing up a lot and getting scolded by Ruby all the time.

She had even started feeling like she couldn’t do anything right.

She hadn’t expected Ruby to actually support her on this matter.

She was over the moon.

“Mom, I heard he’s been going to St. Anne Hospital lately for some exchange. I’ll head over there and try my luck.”

Ruby looked at her daughter’s eagerness with a bit of helplessness.

“Don’t be so obvious. I know a doctor there—you can sign up as a volunteer.”

Sandy’s eyes lit up immediately.

Why hadn’t she thought of that!

This way, she could keep running into the guy she liked and it wouldn’t seem intentional.

“Mom, you’re amazing!”

She immediately started fixing her makeup.

“Mom, send me your friend’s number. I’ll go straight to her.”

“It’s a he- a male doctor–be more polite.”

Ruby felt a little helpless. “Show some respect and remember your place, understand?”

Sandy understood right away.
