Looking out of the window, Sheffield answered Alina in a cold voice, "I came out from the gate. Anything wrong?"

Alina didn't say a word. She thought maybe they missed each other, so they did not meet.

After dinner, Alina was about to read a book when her phone rang. She picked it up and saw a message from Sheffield, urging her to tutor him.

It was more like asking her to help him with his homework than tutoring him.

In fact, Alina had been resisting this job. For example, once, she deliberately got half the problems wrong, but it was useless. He didn't care about it at all.

On two other occasions, she deliberately got all the answers wrong, but he still didn't care.

What could she do? She was desperate!

After hanging up the phone, Alina looked at the screen and sighed. He brought the homework to her yesterday and asked her to do it. Today he sent her a message to let her go to his room. He changed too fast!

She had no choice. She couldn't cancel this damned task, and she couldn't afford to offend him. She had to sacrifice herself.

"Sheffield, stop it, okay? You are going to take the exams in less than two months. I guess you can't even get into a formal high school with your grades. Are you going to ask Dad to help you through the back door?" Alina asked Sheffield sitting on the bed seriously.

Sitting on the bed, Sheffield leaned back, supporting himself with his hands. He smiled sarcastically and said, "Didn't you get into the Ming Hua High School because of my father? Now you are teaching me a lesson!"

Alina froze. Yes, she forgot it.

"But, but I have already realized my mistakes and corrected myself. I'm studying hard, and my grades have obviously improved. In the final exam, I believe my grades will be better."

"It's your own business if you want to study hard. Don't get me involved. It's none of your business!"

"Well, so is your homework also none of my business?"

A guilty look flashed across his eyes. "Homework? What homework?"

"Please, don't pretend. The problems you ask me to teach you every day are just your homework, aren't they?"

Staring at Alina, Sheffield asked, "You know?"

"I'm not stupid..."

After a moment of silence, Sheffield said directly, without covering up anything, "It's better that you know it, so I don't have to pretend to listen to you."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, you can just come here to do the homework in future. You don't have to teach me."

Alina was so angry that she rolled her eyes. He still wanted to use her as free labor.

Facing Alina's angry eyes, Sheffield stood up gracefully and made a gesture of please to the desk, "You can do it or talk to my father."

If she talked to Eric, he would definitely ask why she didn't want to teach his son. How could she tell him that she had been helping his son do homework these days?

Unless she wanted to annoy Eric, she couldn't give up voluntarily.

Let alone Wendy. Her daughter could tutor her stepson in his studies. What a thing to brag about!

"I'll do it! I'll do it!" After thinking for a while, Alina finally gave in.

Looking at Alina's expression of accepting her fate, a complacent snicker appeared on Sheffield's lips.

The second day was Friday. After the last class in the morning was over, the head teacher found Alina and asked her in surprise how she made Leo agree to continue the rehearsal with Ivy.

Alina didn't dare to tell the truth but made up a reason.

Ivy was very happy that Leo was willing to practice. Now she could be alone with him again.

Forgetting the mess, Alina put all her mind and time into studying and began to study hard again.

After school in the afternoon, Alina quickly came to the school gate, got in the car and went straight to the school of Sheffield.

When she arrived at the school of Sheffield, he was still nowhere to be seen. Alina opened the door and got off the car.

She made a gesture to the driver, telling him to call her if he saw Sheffield come out.

The driver nodded with hesitation.

Alina went in from the gate and turned to Sheffield's classroom. When she was about to arrive at the teaching building, she stopped and took out her phone. "Hello, is he in the car now?"

The driver glanced at Sheffield who was staring at him and answered against his will, "No, Young Master hasn't come out yet."

"Really? But I didn't meet him all the way. Is he still in the classroom?"

The driver swallowed and said, "It's possible."

"Then I will go upstairs to have a look. Do you think he is in the classroom?"

The driver looked into Young Master's eyes and said with difficulty, "I... I don't know..."

"Crack!" The door of the driver's seat was opened. Alina stood there with her phone in her hand and expressionlessly looked at the two people in the car.

The driver was stunned by the sudden appearance of Alina. He put down his phone and wanted to hide himself.

Seeing the prank was exposed, Sheffield was a little disappointed in embarrassment. How did she find out so quickly?

Then Alina opened the rear door and got in.

The driver wanted to cough, but the atmosphere in the car made him dare not.

"Is it fun?" A childish game!

Sheffield looked ahead and clenched his fists, "Not bad."

They didn't say anything all the way to home.

Seeing they come back together, Wendy smiled and greeted them. Recently, she had a much better attitude towards Sheffield. She no longer reproached or mocked him.

Alina knew that the conversation had worked. It was because she had seen the change of Wendy that it was more difficult for her to refuse to tutor Sheffield, and she didn't dare to let Wendy feel her anger towards Sheffield.

"Mom, what are we going to eat tonight?"

"There are all your favorite dishes. Put your schoolbag away first. The dinner will be ready when your father comes back."

"Okay, we'll go upstairs."

When they went upstairs, Alina walked in front, and behind her, Sheffield suddenly sighed, "She seems to have a different attitude towards me."

Alina paused and continued to walk up, "Really? I don't think so."

They soon arrived at the door. With his hand on the doorknob, Sheffield turned his head to look at Alina, who was about to push the door, and asked meaningfully, "Is it because of you?"

"Me!" Alina was shocked. Did he know something? She calmed down, pushed the door open, raised the corners of her mouth, turned her head and said, "Maybe love me, love my dog." Then she entered the room and closed the door.

Well, love me, love my dog. That's right! Taking back his sight that was blocked by the door, Sheffield pushed open the door and walked in.

Sitting on the chair, Alina tried to calm herself down.

For a moment, she almost thought that Sheffield knew her plan. It must be just an illusion.
