"Call brother!" Tracy stared at Melissa sternly. She felt that she was getting more and more unreasonable. She seemed to be obedient on the surface, but in fact, she was thinking about something in her mind.
Melissa pouted and took a look at Tracy. Then she turned to Ray and held his hand. "Brother Ray, tell mom. This is what happened. You told me everything."
Ray lowered his head and looked at Melissa with a tangled face. He had planned to tell the truth to Tracy, but when he saw her pitiful and pleading eyes, his heart softened. In the end, he chose to deceive Tracy.
However, before Ray could say anything, Tracy said coldly, "Stop it. I'll talk to the teacher." As soon as Tracy finished her words, Ray's face changed, and Melissa became anxious. She jumped to the ground in a hurry and ran to the side of Tracy. She held Tracy's hand and said, "Mom, don't go to find the teacher. The teacher is so fierce. Even if you go there, the teacher may not pay attention to you."
Tracy withdrew her hand and said, "In that case, I should go."
"But the teacher has said that it's useless to call parents."
Staring at her face, Tracy said, "You seem to know what the teacher said clearly." Melissa's face froze, but she quickly responded, "This is what my brother told me on the way. And... Mom, Aunt didn't pick us up today. The three of us came back by taxi. "
With a cold face, Tracy said, "Don't change the topic. And don't play tricks on me. I will talk to the teacher about your brother's failure in the exam!" Seeing that Tracy's face became serious, Melissa lowered her head and couldn't help but mumble, "You know that students are afraid that their teachers will ask their parents for help. Now it's not the time for teachers to ask their parents for help, but the parents will have to find their teachers themselves."
After murmuring, she looked sympathetically at Ray, who was deep in thought. Tracy stood up and snapped, "Stop it. Go wash your hands, pack up, and eat!"
Melissa stared at the back of Tracy unwillingly. But Ray stood up and turned around to leave. At this time, Ray slowly took out the examination paper from his schoolbag. Tracy lowered her head and frowned. Seeing this, Melissa hurriedly held Tracy's hand and said, "Mom is tired. Sit here!"
Tracy rolled her eyes and sat down. Standing in front of Tracy, she carefully observed Tracy's facial expression. Tracy sometimes frowned, sometimes lost in thought, and her eyelashes blinked quickly. Obviously, she was browsing. After reading it carefully, she found that there was no falsehood in the examination paper, and the scores were true. On the six examination papers, only math was passed with seventy points, and the others were ugly. Twenty points, thirty points, fifty points... Ray had never had such a bad result.
After a long while, Tracy sighed, reached out her hand to touch Ray's head and said softly, "Ray... What's up? Is there anything bothering you recently that has affected your study? Or are you not used to living at home? "
Hearing what Tracy said, Ray felt more guilty. He almost blurted out the truth. Noticing the change in Ray, Melissa quickly said, "Yes, brother may not be used to living here. Brother's bedroom is not comfortable. My bedroom is comfortable. Just leave it to Ray. "
Tracy cast a stern glance at Melissa, and Melissa shut up again. For the time being, she became obedient. Then she continued to stand there and carefully observed the expressions of Tracy and Ray.
"Are you not used to it at home? Or what? "
Hearing Tracy's caring words, Ray lowered his head. Seeing that he was swaying, Melissa hurriedly said, "Mom, brother is sick these days, so he didn't pass the exam well."
Ray shook his head in a hurry and said, "I'm not sick."
Tracy was even more worried. She asked in a hurry, "What's wrong with you?" She was so nervous that her heart was hanging in her throat.
Ray shook his head and said, "I'm really not sick. Don't talk nonsense." Ray turned his head and secretly glared at Melissa. Melissa looked at Tracy, who was so frightened that her face turned pale. It seemed that she had just realized what a serious mistake she had made. Seeing that Tracy lowered her head and she hurriedly apologized, "Mom, I'm sorry. Brother is not sick. It's all nonsense. Brother... He didn't pass the exam. I was afraid that Dad would scold my brother, so I found an excuse... "
Although Tracy breathed a sigh of relief, she was still angry at the fact that Melissa had lied to her. Now, Melissa was lowering her head, apologizing, and not sincere. She always behaved like this. She apologized a second after she made a mistake, and she would not regret it for a day. Next time, she would continue to make mistakes and continue to be naughty.
Tracy was so angry that she stood up, took Ray's hand and left. Melissa looked at Tracy's cold back pitifully. Seeing that Tracy was serious, she cried pitifully.
"Wooh... Mom, don't ignore me. Be a good girl. Wooh... "
Tracy paused and felt a little angry. She couldn't care less about this unruly girl. She was disobedient, making trouble, lying, lying, and lying. Now she suspected that there was something wrong with Ray's failure in the exam.
