Chapter 63: But It’s Impossible

Ilyana felt her heart thump upon hearing the outrageous guess that her mother had made. She looked at Madam Zhou and felt her view distorted as she recalled something of the past when she was still eleven years old. She remember hiding with Dexter in the old book store that people rarely visited and how both of them had sat at the very end of the store, hidden behind the tall bookshelf. 

"What are you reading?" She asked Dexter who seemed to be busy with taking a note out of a thick book. It was the type of book that most people wouldn't read, something even adults would think as difficult. "You seemed to be struggling reading it." 

"My father tasked me to read this," responded Dexter, his hand clenched while he read the book. As it was in English, Ilyana came closer to read that it was about the world's physics.
