From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea )

"Let's grab some spicy hotpot!" Nanson rubbed his hands together, excitement sparkling in his eyes. He seemed to have completely forgotten that Carole had just told him not to let Anthea eat junk food.

"Sure," Anthea nodded. Spicy hotpot might not be the healthiest option, but the taste was absolutely unbeatable.

After their meal, they returned home. Anthea decided to tidy up her room a bit. Everywhere she looked, there were electronic gadgets: dismantled computer towers, green circuit boards, PCBAs, diodes...

But the most shocking part was the soldering equipment. Had it not been seen with one's own eyes, it would be hard to believe this was a girl's room.

Once she finished tidying up her room, Anthea took a watering can to sprinkle some water on the plants in Carole's room. Carole was a stickler for cleanliness. Her room was always neat and tidy. with not a single wrinkle on the bedspread

Anthea methodically watered the plants. “Oops—"

She accidentally knocked a book off the table. Picking it up, it was a copy of "Jane Eyre.” The book’s edges were worn white, indicating it had been well-loved for many years.

Flipping through the pages, a photo suddenly fell out. It was a vintage-looking picture. Aman and a woman were in it. Anthea didn't recognize the man. But the woman was unmistakably a younger Carole.

Indeed, Carole hadn't changed much from the photo to the present. Except back then, she looked much more naive, her eyes bright with love, clearly smitten with the man standing beside her.

The man was tall and handsome, with thick eyebrows and striking features. Together, they were the picture of a perfect couple!

Anthea squinted slightly. If she wasn't mistaken, this man must be her biological father? Well, he did have a certain charm. No wonder he managed to sweep a nineteen-year-old Carole off her feet.Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

Anthea raised an eyebrow and placed the photo back where she found it.
