Chapter 563

After leaving the airport, Raine Nolan and Vanessa Brooke got into the car sent by Rosalind Taylor and headed straight to the Collins family home.

In the car, Vanessa had an apologetic look on her face and said to Raine, "Raine, about the interview, it’s my fault. I don’t know how to explain this to your parents when we meet them later."

Raine managed an awkward smile, "It’s alright, teacher."

Even so, her complexion wasn’t good, and it was obvious that she still cared a lot about it.

Vanessa quickly explained, "I really don’t know what happened. We were talking fine at first, but suddenly my neck hurt, and I passed out. When I woke up, the interview was over."

Raine didn’t know if she was lying.

Were there really such strange things?

Perhaps she just couldn’t do it, so she came up with a set of excuses to deceive her.

Thinking of this possibility, she didn’t continue the conversation.

Vanessa sensed her low spirits and didn’t know what else to say.

After some thought, she decided not to go to the Collins family home.

Halfway there, she made an excuse about having something to do at home and wanted to get out of the car.

Raine didn’t want to keep her, feeling annoyed as she was.

However, she recalled her mother’s insistence on inviting Vanessa to their home and did not ask the driver to stop the car.

She said, "My family has already prepared dinner. If you don’t go, teacher, it would be very disappointing."

Vanessa smiled stiffly, not knowing what to say.

She wanted to forge a connection with the Collins family, but she hadn’t done the task Rosalind had given her, so she felt somewhat embarrassed about going to their place.

Now, hearing Raine’s words, she could only go there with a thick skin.

After a long time, the car finally arrived at the Collins family home.

Raine led her in, and the sound of conversation could be heard from inside.

In the living room, Tessa Collins was wondering why Raine and the others hadn’t come back yet when she heard the maid greeting Raine.

"Oh, they’re back." Tessa said, and everyone else looked over.

Raine walked in and introduced Vanessa to them.

Tessa looked around and sneered, "Did Chloe Collins not come back with you again?"

She then turned to ask Rosalind, "Did you call her and tell her to come back?"

Rosalind laughed and said, "I did, I did. I told the teacher on the phone to bring both kids back."

Vanessa had a vague understanding of the situation at home, but she didn’t know about the relationship between Chloe Collins and the Fosters. She decided not to talk too much, so as not to bring trouble upon herself.

Raine said, "My cousin went to the Fosters and hasn’t returned."

Tessa frowned, "That brat always thinks about the Fosters. I don’t know if she can or can’t marry into that family in the future. It’s only embarrassing if she can’t. Is she not coming back because she didn’t do well on her exams and is too ashamed to see us?"

As she spoke, she looked at Vanessa.

Vanessa looked surprised, as she didn’t expect that Raine hadn’t told her family about the results yet.

At this point, Tristan Collins came over and sat down, his authoritative aura making Vanessa feel pressured.

He said, "Sit down."

Vanessa thanked him and, feeling very uneasy, took a seat near her.

"No need to be nervous. Just tell us how the child did on the exam," he said.

Just as Vanessa was about to speak, she glanced at Raine.

Raine quickly said, "Let me take a shower first."

She hurriedly went upstairs.

Tessa stared at Vanessa and asked, "Teacher, why aren’t you saying anything? Did Chloe do so poorly that you can’t say it out loud?"

Rosalind was also staring at her, clearly in a good mood.

She had heard on the phone from Raine that Raine had achieved an excellent result, ranking sixth in the country and successfully entering the Training Squad.
