True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 2178

Kendrix nodded after hearing the question and said, "This one's simple. You'll get it after I show you the calculation."

"Wow, you're the best." Sylvia sang praises to Kendrix. "You have no idea how wonderful it is to have you around. I can ask you whenever I come across any questions I don't understand rather than having to beg Sebastian. He'll make fun of me every so often; it's very annoying."

Kendrix grinned helplessly and went to grab a printer paper before writing down the solution.

Seeing him all focused, Sylvia was filled with happiness.

Kendrix was indeed gentle.

The more she interacted with him, the more she realized he was a decent guy.

Sylvia had always thought he might have his reasons for seeming aloof and unapproachable toward her. But now, she discovered he would let her do just about whatever to her heart's content after becoming his girlfriend.

And her resolution to cherish this relationship grew stronger.

She didn't just sit and wait but moved on to the next question as Kendrix wrote the solution.

Five minutes later, Kendrix positioned the paper in front of the camera and asked her, "Can you see it like this?"

Sylvia took a good look at it before she answered, "Bring it back a little; too close to the camera."

Kendrix moved the paper back a bit. "How about now?"

"A tad bit closer," Sylvia instructed. "Okay, stop. That's it. Give me a sec."

Scrutinizing his work, she cried out with epiphany, "Wow, you really are a top student. Even such a difficult question can't stump you. I can't believe you're still able to solve a high school question despite having graduated so long ago."

The paper blocked Kendrix's face so Sylvia couldn't see his expression, but behind, he couldn't help smiling hearing her praises.

It turned out it felt this good to be admired by her.

"Let me know when you're done," he said.

"Okay, I got it." Sylvia said, "You can put it down."

"Alright."

Kendrix put the paper down to find the girl was answering the question gaily with her head down.

"Is it that thrilling?" he asked.

"Of course." Sylvia opined, "It's boring to study alone. I'm really happy that you've decided to keep me company."

Gazing at her, Kendrix simply put his book down. In any event, he couldn't even get a word into his mind, so he might as well take a breather.

He had already let himself loose earlier; it wouldn't make a difference with another, would it?

He mumbled in his heart.

In the end, emotions prevailed over logic, and he fixed his gaze on his girl rather than the criminal investigation book.

Sylvia didn't seem tired at all, having already solved a good handful of math problems.

She would read out almost every question to Kendrix. "How about I read them for you and try to solve them by myself before letting you check if I'm correct? You can also see if I have a solid foundation in the meantime."

"Go ahead. Show me when you're done." Kendrix didn't refuse.

Just like that, Kendrix checked quite a lot of her work, which were all challenging questions, and he discovered she had a relatively solid foundation, clearly an intelligent girl.

However, he checked the time.

It was right at twelve.

"Alright, time or bed." Kendrix said, "It's already midnight."

After letting himself loose on New Year's, it was time for him to come to his senses.

He must not be self-indulgent any longer now that it was the second day of the year.
