Go Back and I Rule There novel Chapter 84

The next day, the sun was shining brightly, but Rosalind was still asleep when the sound of hammering echoed from outside the clinic.

Galeno came in twice and gestured by her bedside, but she didn’t even bother to open her eyes.

It wasn’t until Grandma Megan called her, “Rosalind, it’s Thursday. Why aren’t you at school?”

Rosalind finally got herself ready and ambled out, looking fresh-faced and pretty. “I don’t have class this morning.”

Grandma Megan seemed to see right through her and sighed. “If you’re struggling with your studies, just tell Grandma, it’s alright. I heard from Mrs. Zade that they have tutoring these days. Should we sign you up for one?”

Struggling? Her? Galeno looked up at the mention of it, his eyes sharp and fierce.

Rosalind smiled, gathering her long hair into a high ponytail, which made the beauty mark near her eye more prominent. “It’s fine, Grandma. I can handle it.”

The old woman was still worried, fumbling for her basic phone. “You were last in your class last semester. Your teacher said if your grades don’t improve this semester, they’ll have to call a parent-teacher conference. No, I have to find you a tutor. Mr. Lopez’s grandson is a good student, I’ll call him.”

Grandma was already dialing.

Just then, the wind chime on the door jingled, signaling a customer had entered.

Rosalind glanced toward the sound and saw her patient, whom she hadn’t seen in three days, standing there tall and elegant.

The man’s bespoke suit accentuated his long legs and noble air. His handsome, refined face seemed to register something amusing, and his brow quirked up.

Then, he turned his head and looked at her with a smile, as if to say, you… last in your class?

In front of guests, Mrs. Yates Sr. would naturally protect her grandchild’s pride, especially since this was one of Rosalind’s friends.

“You two chat. I’ll go inside to talk to the Lopez boy in private,” the old woman said, walking away with her phone.
