Chapter 1549 Beginning of school
Twelve years later
A female voice comes from the living room of the Rossi family.
“Angelica, are you okay yet? Why are you taking so long to change, are you stealing food again?”
“Well, um no, I’ll be ready in a minute!”
Fiona could not help but roll her eyes at the sound of that voice, saying that she was going to change her clothes and that she was indeed stealing food again.
It was some time before Angelica finally appeared upstairs, hurrying downstairs with a small backpack on her back, cookie crumbs still on the left corner of her mouth and cream on her right cheek.
“Mom!”
Fiona shook her head helplessly at the sight, greedy for food and without wiping her mouth.
“Did you steal something again? ”
Fiona asked Angelica once she was standing in front of her, “Did you steal any food?”
“No, Mom, why would I steal food?”
As soon as she said that, Fiona reached out her hand and twisted a cookie crumb in the left corner of her mouth, “What’s this?”
At the sight of the crumb, Angelica’s eyes widened and then she said with a smile, “I just stole a cookie, Mom.”
“What about this?”
Fiona scraped some more cream from the right side of her cheek.
Angelica half-closed her lips, then bit her lower lip and said, “I’m sorry, Mom, I was too greedy, I’ll be careful next time!”
“Come on, you ate it all.” Fiona wiped the cream off his face and fixed his hair, “You are sixteen, why can’t you control yourself? Look at the other girls who are tall and thin, don’t you want to be like them?
“Hm.” Angelica looked at his figure and winked, “But I can’t resist the temptation of food, food is more important to me.”
“You might not think so when you meet a boy you like, but fortunately, my daughter is naturally beautiful, even if she is fat, she is pretty~”
Fiona pinched Angelica’s cheek, “Okay, I put your luggage in the car, the driver will take it to school.”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Angelica seemed to think of something, “By the way, has the brother called yet?”
“Yes, he said he would come today to help you with your luggage, that’s why you don’t have to be late, he took his time to come, and don’t bother him all the time.”
“He is my brother, how can that be a problem?”
“He’s not a native brother, right?
He grew up with you, at most he’s a childhood friend, what if his girlfriend gets angry when you keep bothering him like this?”
When she heard the word “girlfriend,” Angelica tilted her head and thought, “No, he doesn’t have a girlfriend yet.”
“Sooner or later he will have one, he is already a sophomore, unlike you who are just a freshman?”
“Well, let’s wait until he does then.”
Afterwards, the driver sent Angelica to school.
On the way to school, Angelica took out her cell phone and sent a Facebook message to Manuel.
{Brother, have you arrived at school yet?}
At that moment, Manuel was answering a call from his beloved mother Serena. Dressed in a black baseball uniform, he was standing next to the bus stop sign, tall, looking deep and sharp his features as if he was created of the hands of the great sculpture, having freed himself from his childish appearance , he was now a boy in his twenties.
“Well, I’ll be there now, and don’t worry, I’ll help Angelica pack before I leave .
Don’t hurt her .
“Heh.” Manuel laughed softly, his tone low, “How can that be? We’ve been together since childhood, how can I offend her? Well, the bus is coming, so I’m hanging up now.”
With that, Manuel put the phone away, the affectionate warmth vanished from his eyes.
A boy beside him, a sunny-looking boy of similar height, exposing small teeth when he smiled, put his hand directly on Manuel’s shoulder.
“Auntie is too fond of that girl from the Rossi family to call and tell you.”
Pacino-a classmate of Manuel’s-was a close friend of the two, and they are now together because of a childhood accident.
Pacino was in a car accident and was saved by Manuel, who was driving by.
After this, Pacino said he had no choice but to become his best friend, so he followed Manuel.
“She is still small, she should be spoiled.” Manuel’s face was indifferent and expressionless.
“What is Angelica now? She’s 16 years old, she’s not as chubby as before, is she? I would say Angelica a is a very pretty girl, just a little greedy.”
As soon as he had finished his sentence, Pacino felt a grim look fall on his face.
He looked toward Manuel and saw that he looked dissatisfied, so he stopped.
“I’m sorry, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have called her chubby, Angelica is pretty.”
Only then did Manuel say coldly, “Don’t mention that word in front of her again.
She has already grown up.”
“I know, that’s all I should know?”
Soon the bus arrived and the two tall, thin teenagers got on together, immediately catching the eyes of many girls on the bus.
“How handsome they are!!!”
“What school are these two students from?
Look at the one by the window, oooh so handsome.”
Since it was the beginning of the school year, many students were on the bus and when they saw Manuel and Pacino, they couldn’t help but pull out their cell phones to take pictures of them.
Manuel understood what was going on and looked at the girls with their phones with a slight frown.
Pacino smiled and stood in front of them, “Girls, even though the brothers are beautiful, you can’t just take pictures.”
The girls blushed at Pacino’s comment and put their phones away.
“I’m sorry , we won’t take any more pictures then.”
“That’s what makes you a good girl.”
Once they were sure they would not take any more pictures, Pacino returned to Manuel, shaking his head, “You’re always so flamboyant whenever you’re out with me, can you become a star easily with a face like that?
Why go to the police academy?”
Pacino did not wait for Manuel to say anything before saying, “If I could have looked like you, I would have become a star, you know, society today is completely different from before. ”
“Are you done?” Manuel shot him a look, “You always talk so much.”
“And you don’t like to listen to what I say?”
Tick-tock…
Manuel’s phone rang.
Pacino immediately became more excited than him: “Come on, it must be The Rossi Family sending you a message on Facebook, let’s see what it sends.”
“Is this about you?”
“Of course I’m curious.”
Pacino was especially excited: “This is Angelica, I grew up with her too!”
