Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Asking for a Favor
Chapter 213
At noon, the school teems with people, bustling with activity.
Next to the athletics field is a small garden with several stone tables and benches. Chloe Collins and Layla Lowell casually chose a table, laid out their food, and ate together.
There are few people still training in the athletics field. As Layla tosses a glance while eating, she suddenly stops: "Hmm? How did those two end up together?"
While Chloe was enjoying the exquisite meal made by Evelyn Thompson, she turned her head towards the distance upon hearing this.
The athletics field is lower than the surrounding area, giving a wide view from here.
The two girls who are leisurely walking around the athletics field are Mia Nolan and Raine Nolan.
"Is there a problem?" Chloe asked casually.
Layla explained while eating, "Nothing really, just thought it was strange. I remember Edna Higgins once told me that Mia Nolan tried to be friends with Raine Nolan and her group, but was ignored, leading to a lot of awkwardness. Seeing them together now, just feels a bit surprising."
Chloe remained silent. Her gaze, once again, fell on those two.
The scene zoomed in.
Mia Nolan’s expression was subtle, and her eyes occasionally glanced at the talking Raine Nolan, not able to hide her surprise.
The person who would normally ignore her altogether had come to her classroom five minutes ago, waiting for her, wanting to talk about something.
They had walked all the way from the teaching building here, though after hearing Raine’s long-winded explanation, Mia was still unclear about her main point.
With a slow voice and a gentle smile, Raine turned to her and said, "I like so many things, but my mom says I can only focus on one. So, I had to choose between chemistry and information technology as my main field. I’m passionate about fragrance blending, and chemistry has links with it, so I chose chemistry. That’s why I’m still very envious of you guys in the IT competition training class who can study this technology in-depth. It must be nice."
Mia paused, looking up at the woman who was taller than her by five centimeters, and directly asked, "So, what are you trying to say?"
Maintaining her smile, Raine answered calmly, "Well, I actually need your help with something. I heard you’re the most skilled in the IT class, and I was thinking of asking you to design a small, fun game. It should be entertaining while also incorporating some basic knowledge about fragrance blending. I’ll provide all the necessary materials, and you don’t have to worry about the payment, just name your price. I’m planning to volunteer at an orphanage, and I thought I could use this game to teach the kids there. If I’m lucky, maybe I’ll even find a disciple."
On hearing this, Mia’s confusion had vanished, and she felt rather pleased.
"Well...it’s just that I’m quite busy lately, and my mom won’t allow me to take on extracurricular tasks."
Raine smiled and said, "There shouldn’t be a problem. Just tell your mom after school that you’re going to my place to do homework. You can use my computer at home. How long do you think it would take to have it done?"
Mia considered, "I’m not sure, maybe a week. It depends on the difficulty of your materials, but..."
Raine saw her intention and immediately said, "How about I pay you triple the market rate? Would that be acceptable?"
Mia’s eyes lit up.
She hadn’t reached a point where she could earn her own money. Moreover, Lilian Pearce would not allow her to take on any part-time jobs.
Without money, she felt restricted, unable to support her favorite celebrity, for instance.
Right now, this was a golden opportunity.
Without giving it much thought, she agreed.
