She pondered how Lyndon had come to know about her difficulties with computers.
No, she wasnât bad at it.
She simply wasnât that good at it!
âWho told you Iâm not good with computers?â Tilda shot back, her expression showing both embarrassment and irritation.
Lyndon lifted an eyebrow and looked over at Sheldon.
Just then, Sheldon, feeling somewhat guilty, grabbed onto Tildaâs leg and let out a nervous laugh.
âTilda, please donât be upset.
I accidentally let it slip.
â
So, Sheldon was the one who had leaked the information about her!
Tilda felt both annoyed and slightly amused.
Before she graduated, she had mistakenly erased some files and sought help from a senior who was majoring computer science.
During their conversation, she had humorously referred to herself as not good with computers.
Apparently, Sheldon had overheard and remembered this.
Remembering was one thing, but revealing her secret in front of others was slightly irritating.
Tilda looked at him with a pretend serious face.
Yet, seeing the bruises on his face, Tildaâs heart softened.
She knelt down, gently held his face, and asked in a soft voice, âAre you still hurting?â
Sheldon blinked his large eyes and said with determination, âTilda, Iâm strong.
It doesnât hurt.
â
Tilda softly touched his hair and smiled weakly, then stood and turned to Lyndon.
âElma has already filled me in.
Thanks for today.
â
Lyndon, looking serious, replied, âMiss Larson, if you really want to thank me, then reconsider my offer.
â
Reconsidering his offer? Did he mean the fake marriage with him?
Keeping her cool, Tilda tore her sharp eyes away from Lyndon and balled her hands into fists as she said, âGuess I havenât made myself clear the first time.
You can keep your offer because I will never accept it.
â
Looking at Sheldon, Lyndon said, âGo and play in your room, Sheldon.
â
The boy glanced at the two of them before nodding and walking toward his room obediently.
Even at a young age, Sheldon could understand why Lyndon sent him away.
His dad was going to persuade Tilda to get married!
Watching Sheldon go, Tilda pursed her lips.
Since when did he start following instructions from Lyndon?
âYou once said Sheldon is Elmaâs grandson.
So is he already registered as a citizen of Skrix?â Lyndon asked, taking Tilda out of her thoughts.
