Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 241

He kicked aside the overturned bowl with a swift motion, and the sound of porcelain shattering against the floor echoed sharply, making Millie shudder in fear.

"I told you, stop faking it around me. Give you three seconds to get back to your room and stay out of my sight!"

He pointed upstairs, his eyes swirling with a fierce anger.

Millie didn't dare linger any longer, trembling as she made her way upstairs.

After that dinner, Roseanne felt her relationship with everyone had warmed up a bit more.

The main reason, undoubtedly, was her cooking skills.

So much so that she now made it a habit to cook a little extra for lunch every day, allowing others to "crash her meal," so to speak.

In return, Jen and the others would occasionally help her out with some tricky lab techniques.

The most noticeable change was in Stoddard.

Ever since Roseanne mastered the quick calculation techniques he shared, Stoddard's attitude towards her shifted.

He often engaged her in discussions about math puzzles, and Roseanne, always eager to learn, absorbed the information quickly. Before long, she was able to apply Stoddard's teachings in her own way.

This made Stoddard even more pumped up. He began treating Roseanne like an apprentice, always ready to sit down and discuss problems, with scratch paper and pens always within reach.

"Stoddard, looks like you've taken on a protégé. Haven't seen you this passionate about anything in ages."

"Mr. Stoddard, you can't play favorites. I'm your student too. I demand the same treatment as Roseanne!" Sammy joked, raising his hand.

Stoddard replied, "Off you go, focus on your lab reports and stop talking."

Laughter filled the room, even Roseanne couldn't help but smile.

She was so engrossed that she didn't even hear Owen calling her name.

"Roseanne? Roseanne?!"

"...Huh? Mr. Reynolds, did you call me?"

"Yes, come here for a moment."

"Oh, okay."
