NovelEnglishChapter 12-1
"Got your breakfast ready, sweetheart," Howard called from the stairs. "Your mom had the kitchen whip up all
your favorites."
"Thanks, Dad. But I'm not hungry." Danielle’s hangover pulsed behind her eyes.
Last night's memories crashed over her-throwing money at a corporate titan, demanding he carry her home...
She buried her burning face in her hands. "Why did | turn into such a hot mess? | never act like that drunk.
But of course, "not hungry" didn’t exist in a parent’s vocabulary, so before she knew it, her dad had already
pulled her to the breakfast table.
Audrey seethed in the background, her pristine mask slipping just enough to reveal raw fury at being ignored.
"Everything's good to go at Moreno University. When do you wanna take the entrance exam?" Howard said,
watching his daughter eat so delicately with a proud grin on his face.
"This afternoon, | guess," Danielle mumbled between bites, suddenly starving despite herself
"We should totally go to the university to support Danielle!" Audrey said, her voice bright and innocent, like she

dream. Its old, grand buildings seemed to whisper stories of generations of scholars who had walked these halls,
each one adding to the school’s legendary reputation.
There was an undeniable sense of history here-an air of mystery that made it feel like more than just a place to
learn, but a place where greatness was made.
The dean, Ryan Tucker, hurried out to greet them, then froze at seeing Audrey. "Another entrance test? Isn't Miss
Darling already a student here?" His mind raced to uncomfortable conclusions about the possibility of a secret
child.
"We're here for our other daughter," Howard explained, presenting Danielle.
Ryan'’s eyes widened with recognition at the sight of Danielle before he masked his reaction. ‘Since when does
she play at being a student?’ he wondered but kept his thoughts carefully hidden.
"Hello, Mr. Tucker. I'm Danielle Darling. Looking forward to studying at Moreno University," Danielle said coolly.
"Well, this is rich, Ryan thought. ‘She wouldn't show up before, and now she wants another entrance test? Since
when is she a Darling?’ He had so many questions, but with the Darlings present, he'd have to hold his tongue.
"Welcome, Danielle! We're honored you chose Moreno," he said diplomatically. "You'll be taking three core
subjects plus your major."
