Chapter 273 Chapter 273 Even though she was a woman, her heart raced at the sight. She could only imagine how men would feel.
Anthea said, "I was the track star at school, and that thief figured he couldn't outrun me, so he gaveback the purse." "Oh, my goodness, thank you so much!" The middle-aged woman clutched Anthea's hand. "Sweetheart, what's your name? How old are you?" "Ma'am, my nis Anthea, and I'm eighteen." "Oh, honey, don't callma'am. It makessound old. Callby my name, please!" The woman continued, "You can callAdah. Speaking of which, there's a dessert shop over there. Lettreat you to ssweets." Making contact with such a young lady made Adah feel she'd shed a decade or two herself.
And that wasn't just any young lady but a pretty one.
Even the legendary beauty Carlotta would blush in her presence.
She was just that stunning! Desserts were Anthea's weakness.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUsually, she'd jump at the offer without a second thought. But at that moment, she had to help Sarah study. "Thanks for the kind offer, but I've got something else to do." Adah held onto Anthea's hand. "I'll just call you Annie! Annie, you got my purse back for me. I must thank you properly. Oh, and what's your Twitter? Let's add each other!" Adah was too enthusiastic, and feeling slightly overwhelmed, Anthea took out her phone, "I'll add you, ma'am." "I told you just Adah, okay? Annie, relax! Here, letadd you! Showyour account." Anthea brought up her account, and they added each other on Twitter.
Anthea tagged her as Adah.
Adah tagged Anthea as Stunning Annie.
After exchanging contacts, Adah said, "Where are you headed, Annie? My driver will be here any minute. I'll have him drop you off." "Thanks, Adah. I'm going somewhere nearby. It's just a few minutes' walk." "Well, I've got nothing on my plate right now. How about I walk you over?" "That would be too much trouble." Adah waved dismissively. "No trouble at all." Adah was a sucker for good looks. She couldn't resist a pretty face. She hadn't been a fan of celebrities, but ever since meeting Carlotta, she was hooked! And Anthea was even more beautiful than Carlotta.
It was too bad that her son wasn't interested in women.
Otherwise, she'd have loved to lure Anthea into becoming her daughter-in-law.
Dreaming of having such a beautiful daughter-in-law would make anyone wake up smiling.
With no good way to refuse, Anthea let Adah walk her to Sarah's apartment complex.
"Adah, this is my stop." "Already?" Adah looked reluctant to leave.
Anthea nodded.
"Okay, Annie, you better get inside! Don't keep your friend waiting. I'll head back." "Bye, Adah." "Goodbye." Knowing Anthea was returning, Sarah had got Anthea's favorite sweets.
When the doorbell rang, Sarah dashed to open the door.

Anthea hugged Sarah, her excitement palpable. "Sarah, you're the best!" "I knew you'd love it. Aren't you worried about gaining weight with all these sweets?"
Anthea replied fearlessly, "If I get fat, I'll be on a diet later!" And this body had the smetabolism as her previous life. No matter what she ate, her figure remained sizzling! After devouring the sweets, Anthea began helping Sarah with her review. Sarah was decent in humanities but struggled with sciences.
Her combined scores in math, physics, and chemistry were barely hitting 210.
However, Anthea firmly believed in the adage that there are no bad students but terrible teachers.
She had her teaching methods.
Despite being all fun and games with her friends, when it cto serious matters, she was all business, as she was at the time.
Sarah listened intently, barely daring to breathe. Oddly enough, all those things that confused her in other e places just made sense when Anthea explained them, like a clear flowing river. Before they knew it, the afternoon had arrived.
The first thing Adah did after returning hfrom shopping was recount her day's adventure to Karen, "Karen, you won't believe it! I met this En? gorgeous girl today! She's even prettier than Carlotta!" It was rare to hear Adah praise someone. It was a ty indeed. In Adah's eyes, Carlotta was usually the epitof beauty! Karen was shocked. "Oh, prettier than the mermaid herself? But is she as lovely as my future granddaughter-in- law Ann?" X
