A few minutes later, Rose walked towards the dining table where she met Beatrice, Sophia and William sitting on their respective seats.
As usual she walked towards the seat at the end of the table opposite William who was sitting at the head to table.
The three stare at Rose with different thoughts running in their mind as they watch her walk towards them with a calm and collected demeanor and take her seat.
“Good evening, father." Rose greeted William after sitting down.
William nodded his head without saying anything. Beatrice quickly gestured to the maids to serve the food and they all left, leaving the four people alone.
No one said anything to each other and started digging into their food. Rose was the only one who wasn't eating like the others and it was because her stomach was still filled with the food she had eaten with Alex and his friends.
“So, Rose. How was the exam you took today?” William asked, breaking the silence at the dining tables.
"It went well. I thought my stepmother would have told you about it and I was expecting some gifts from you father.” Rose calmly replied while glancing at William.
“I don't understand? If your mother knew, she would have told me, that's why I'm asking you." William raised a confused brow at Rose and also took a peek at Beatrice.
“No. Did mother tell you that she didn't know as well because I'm sure Headmistress Moore already called Stepmother and told her about my results." Rose shook her head. She was already a hundred percent sure that Headmistress Moore had called Beatrice this after.
Hearing her words, Beatrice raised her head and looked at Rose with a dark expression. It was true, Headmistress Moore had called her and told her about the results Rose got and it was also one of the reasons why she had been quiet because her plan was ruined.
“Sweetie, is what Rose is saying true?" William turned to look at his wife. For now he felt that Rose was saying the truth since Beatrice was very close with the headmistress.
" Honey, I'm sorry I should have informed you when you came home, it slipped my mind. According to my friend she said that Rose performed really well today in the exam.” Beatrice quickly came up with an excuse and turned to look at Rose.
