Chapter 48 The Milk Tea Challenge
+5 Pearls
“That milk tea was my way of challenging Anthony! He always buys you milk tea, so I bought one too. He likes it half–sugar, but I prefer it to be full–sugar. He likes it at room temperature. I like it hot! Even though I can’t outperform him in exams, I refuse to believe that I’m inferior to him in every aspect Williamı declared, gazing at Anthony with determination.
Anthony was speechless.
Even Milly, usually composed, couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
So, this guy’s reasoning is that if he can’t surpass Anthony in exams, he’ll challenge him to buy milk tea.
Everyone was taken aback by William’s unexpected explanation and burst into laughter:
“Haha. I knew it. Mr. William would not be interested in Stephanie.”
“Haha. Mr. William is quite something. I’ve never seen someone so determined to win in such a roundabout way.”
“I must say. Stephanie is quite narcissistic. She believes she’s a goddess!”
“If Mr. William has feelings for someone, it would be Milly. She may not be the most beautiful, but she comes from a prestigious family.
The continuous jabs and humiliation completely shattered Stephanie. She couldn’t hold back her tears. “Sob sob. I hate you all!”
After her outburst, she covered her face and fled.
Seeing the main character leaving, everyone dispersed since there was no more drama to watch.
However, at that moment, Anthony, standing in the corridor, didn’t head towards his seat but walked. straight towards Milly’s seat with a gloomy expression and a backpack.
William immediately stood up and blocked his path, shielding Milly behind him.
Knowing that Anthony doted on Stephanic, he probably wanted to confront Milly because his beloved sister cried.
“What are you up to?” William’s tone was icy.
Anthony, unfazed, glanced at him and said, “Move aside!”
“No way! If you want to harm Boss, you’ll have to step over my dead body!”
Anthony and Milly were speechless.
What kind of bizarre and childish talk was this?
Milly sighed helplessly and said, “William, sit down. Have you copied your chemistry homework yet? The teacher will collect it soon.”
The tense atmosphere from a moment ago dissipated instantly. “Right, copy, I’ll do it right away.”

Chapter 48 The Milk Tea Challenge.
*5 Pearls:
Yesterday, he was so absorbed in gaming on the FX esports platform that he completely forgot about homework. It wasn’t until this morning that he realised the urgency, and now he’s hastily copying Milly’s
work.
Seeing him comply, Milly looked up at Anthony, who was approaching.
“What’s the matter?”
Anthony’s expression was blank, his voice cold, “Why didn’t you return my call yesterday?”
“Huh?” Milly blinked.
It took her a moment to recall what he was referring to.
Yesterday, due to the typhoon, she stayed at the Tate’s residence and forgot to call home. Jordan called her numerous times, and there were a few messages from Anthony. She was so preoccupied with reporting to Jordan that she forgot to reply.
Anthony said in a huff, “Fine, fine! If I ever treat you like a sister again, worry about you again, then I’m a dog! Hmph!”
Milly didn’t understand why he suddenly got so angry. Furrowing her brows, she couldn’t help but remind him.
“Mr. Anthony, you don’t need to repeat it. You already declared last time that calling me sister again would reduce you to a mere puppy. I haven’t forgotten, so there’s no need to emphasise it.”
“Fine! You’re something!” Anthony felt that if he stayed here any longer, he would be driven crazy by her, so he turned around and left in a huff.
His departure was like that of an enraged lion.
Could it be that his monthly period has arrived?
Teenage boys are puzzling.
