Ovior fixed his glasses and greeted her back, "Good morning. Are you here for your lessons?" He looked haggard. He didn't seem to sleep yesterday.
Veronica vigorously
nodded her head. "Yes. I would like to go to the capital city for sightseeing.
Can I finish my study sooner?"
"Depends on how quickly you learn your lesson." Ovior turned toward Catherine and ordered her, "Finish checking those papers first. I'll add something more if I can."
Catherine looked at his small table that had a pile of papers. She gulped and said, "Can I take a break after I finish checking those papers? I want to go out with Veronica."
Ovior replied in a bored tone, "Hmm. As long as you work after coming back. Come to my office after you are done sightseeing. I have more tasks to give you today."
"Yes," Catherine reluctantly nodded. She looked calm but she was exploding inside. 'Who knows how long it will take for me to check these papers. I'm so done!'
Sorry for the late update. My temperature suddeny rose last night when I was writing this chapter. I thought I could use it to take a break. In the morning, I felt better and started writing. Thank you for your patience. ^.^
