| was rendered speechless. "Someone will eat it. If you think it's sour, then pick from trees that aren't sour."
| ignored her after saying that and continued to pick the fruits.
Elena turned around and left as well. Just a s | had breathed a sigh of relief, she shouted out to me, “Ms. Lane,
the fruits on this tree look pretty good. Why don't you climb up and pick some?"
| turned back to look and my mouth could not help but twitch. The fruit tree she was referring to was the tallest
in the orchard.
How could it be that easy to pick fruits from such a tall tree?
| blandly said, "I don't know how to climb trees."
"You don’t?” Elena looked atin surprise. "Theo said you grew up in the countryside. How could children there

| frowned. "Theo told you?"
Elena nodded, then said smugly, "Yeah, he often tellsstories about the past."
| pursed my lips and said no more.
Seeing that | was about to leave, she stood i n my way and said, "The fruits on this tree must be especially
sweet. Can you stop being so selfish? What could possibly happen if you climb up there and pick some? Who will
eat all the sour fruits you picked? | think you just don’t want Mr.
Collins to eat fruits."
Who did she think she was?
| took a deep breath and held back the annoyance in my heart. | said to her in a cold tone, "Do you not have
limbs? If you want to pick the fruits on this tree and think it's easy to climb trees, why don’t you climb up there
and pick the fruits yourself?"
This woman must be sick in the head.
"Wanda Lane!” Elena pointed at my nose and said with a furious expression, "You really are a selfish woman."
| was not a fan of arguing with her and turned around to leave.
| turned around and happened to see Theo walking over with a bag of fruits. He noticed our dark expressions and
asked faintly, "What's wrong?”
You're finally back, Mr. Grant." Elena's face broke into a grin when she saw him. She was like a peacock with its
feathers open as she walked up to him.
Theo nodded. "Are you done picking the fruits?"
Elena pointed at the tallest fruit tree and said a little pitifully, "The fruits on this tree look especially sweet, Mr.
Grant. Mr.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCollins will be delighted if we pick these for him, but unfortunately, it's too tall and 1 can't get up there."
Theo nodded. "This tree is quite tall, indeed. It won't be easy to climb up there.”
"Right?" Elena looked atand said expectantly, "But | heard that Ms. Lane is pretty good at climbing trees, so |
told her t o try it out."
The two lunatics had ctogether.
| had no plans of entertaining them and started walking.
However, Theo grabbed my arm and said with a faint smile, "You can indeed climb trees. Why don't you do us a
favor?"
The heavens must have sent them here to torture me, right?
| took a deep breath and held back the anger in my chest. | said in a cold voice," Climb it yourself if you want. |

Theo said faintly, "Mr. Fredericks ordered you to assist us, but it looks like you're not taking his words seriously."
