Chapter 417
Eyes playing tricks?
Adah frowned, "Am I seeing things?"
Sherman nodded slightly, "You are seeing things.'
"
Adah thought about it, her son Sherman, ever since he was a child, had always been so stoic, hardly ever smiled.
She remembered when Sherman was five, trying to make him laugh by making funny faces.
But all she got was, "Mom, are you being silly on purpose?"
From that moment on, Adah stopped trying to make Sherman laugh.
Growing up, Sherman became even less fond of smiling, always carrying the same expression, his face taut.
Like a wooden doll.
Perhaps, she really was seeing things just now.
Adah placed the fruits on the table, "The weather's been so dry and hot lately, you should eat more fruits."
"I don't want any, Mom, please take them away."
"Eating fruits is good for your health," Adah continued, "These are freshly air-flown lychees, and these peaches are also very good. Annie can eat two in one go! Oh, and later, let's have someone pack some peaches to send over to Annie!"
With that, Adah headed downstairs.
After Adah left, Sherman picked up a peach, its flesh a mix of white and red, and took a bite.
Sweet and juicy.
Not bad at all.
He ate one peach after another, finishing the whole thing in no time.
Meanwhile.
The Yeager family.
Tanya's parents and brother, along with his wife, came with generous gifts to thank Anthea.
Carole knew of Anthea's capabilities.
But when she found out Anthea was the same Dr. Yeager from the news, she was taken aback.
She couldn't believe the person who had cured cancer was her daughter.
Seeing Anthea so nonchalant about it, Carole tried to compose herself as well.
Little White brought over some freshly brewed tea, "Please enjoy the tea, esteemed guests!"
Tanya was amazed, "Annie, this robot is yours?"
"Yep." Anthea nodded.
"It's quite smart!" Tanya examined Little White from all angles.novelbin
Little White blushed, "Please don't look at me like that, my cheeks will turn into red apples..."
"Wow!" Tanya exclaimed in surprise.
Little White added, "Esteemed guest, swearing is not polite!"
"What's your name?" Tanya continued.
Little White replied with pride, "I'm Little White, the smartest robot in the universe!"
"How much does Annie pay you a month for your work?"
"A lot."
"And your salary?"
Little White tilted its head, thinking, "My salary? It all goes towards paying for electricity."
"Ha-ha!"
Not just Tanya, but everyone in the room burst into laughter.
To make up for Tanya's missed trip to the amusement park last time.
Anthea also promised Tanya, after she

Today was the day Anthea's interview was broadcasted on television.
At six in the evening, Carole switched the TV to the Cloudcrestwork.
The TV was mounted on the wall of the diner.
A 90-inch screen, visible to all the patrons.
Everyone was there for the famous diner, eagerly anticipating the news segment.
Soon, the news came on.
After a brief introduction by the host, the screen shifted to Anthea and Carole's interview.
"There they are! The top scholar and her mom!"
People took out their phones to take pictures.
Though it was only two minutes, compared to other news, this was quite a lengthy spotlight.
After featuring Cloudcrest's top scholar, thework played clips of top scholars from around the country.
