Chapter 37

“Madam Hough, hello, I’m here to visit Old Mister Hough.”

Naomi stood up straight and looked at Madam Hough generously with just the right amount of courage.

Madam Hough sized her up. She was just about to question Naomi about those indecent photos.

Lilian noticed and immediately planted herself in between them and deliberately replied to Naomi, “Old

Mister Hough is doing well. He just had our family heirloom’s miracle drug which Clarissa so kindly fed

him. He is currently sleeping inside.”

Then, Lilian pretended to be apologetic and apologized to Madam Hough. “I’m so sorry, Naomi is still

young. She didn’t think about this.”

“It’s fine. Your eldest is only a few years older. This matter is all about sincerity.” Although Madam

Hough’s expressions did not change, she was clearly implying. Her tone was not that friendly anymore.

“Alright, let’s stop standing. Have a seat.”

“Yes, we never would have thought to bump into you, Madam Hough. It’s just nice. We can bond as a

family.” Lilian smiled widely. It was not a coincidence. They specifically inquired about Madam Hough’s

return to Gin City and came over intentionally!

They took the opportunity to get Clarissa to give Old Mister Hough the miracle drug to gain Madam

Hough’s favor. As long as Madam Hough did not get to the bottom of the indecent photo matter, she

would constantly hate Naomi. Naomi and Jack would get a divorce sooner or later!

By then, Clarissa would have the chance!

Clarissa also smiled widely. She did not expect that Naomi would come. It was just nice. They could get

Naomi to embarrass herself in front of Madam Hough, creating a juxtaposition to her kindness! God was

helping her!

Naomi looked at the two of them and their pretentious actions calmly. Her instincts told her that they must

be up to something!

However, Naomi did not even bother to explain herself. She found a corner and sat down.

She had a fake marriage with Jack, so she did not want to get too involved with Jack’s family, to prevent

further trouble in the future.

Madam Hough’s indifference to her was not a bad thing. It was a pity that Madam Hough did not know

any better and came for her!

“I hear you’re in your twelfth grade. Have you thought about which college you’re planning to apply to?”

Madam Hough looked at Clarissa, then at Naomi.

After all, Naomi was the person her son picked. No matter how much she did not like Naomi, she still had

to be a concern for her.

Naomi was about to reply when Lilian interrupted again.

“Clarissa is hardworking, she inherited it from her father. She attended the Royal Medical School’s self

directed enrolment. She just passed the first round.”

Speaking of Clarissa, Lilian was proud. Then, Lilian looked at Naomi and deliberately sighed heavily.

“It’s a pity that Naomi has been spoiled by me. In school, she…”

“Do you really want to talk about the matters in school? Why don’t I talk about something that just

happened yesterday?” Naomi’s eyes narrowed dangerously. She looked at Lilian with great intent. How

dare Lilian spread rumors about her, right in front of her? Did Lilian think that she would not fight back?

Naomi swept Lilian a glance. Lilian and Clarissa’s expressions instantly changed. They no longer

continued speaking.

The room was in an awkward silence. Madam Hough lowered her head, fidgeting with a metal object in

her hand with no plans of talking.

At that moment, Clarissa said in a fake sweet tone and asked docilely, “Madam Hough, what are you

holding in your hand? It looks interesting.” “This?” Madam Hough held up the small metal object. Naomi

took a glance out of curiosity too.

It did not look like a regular Rubik’s cube or a burr puzzle.

“It’s a toy like a Rubik’s cube, but so far, not many can solve it. Why? Do you want to try it?” Madam

Hough said.

Clarissa started thinking to herself. She had tried out a few Rubik’s cubes before. If she could solve it,

Madam Hough would like her even more.

“Let me try it.” “Hmm, after all, you’ve passed the test at the Royal Medical School. Your intelligence

should not be a problem,” Madam Hough said while passing it to her. Clarissa smugly accepted the

cube. She immediately applied the solution for a standard Rubik’s cube on the cube and moved quickly.

Naomi was amused just by Clarissa’s first move.

The cube was much more complicated than an ordinary Rubik’s cube. It combined ancient arithmetic as

well as elements of the burr puzzle and the Devil’s needle.

To solve a cube like that, one needed mathematics as well as spatial awareness. Any ordinary person

would not be able to solve it.
