Tommy still didn’t know what Yunice’s husband actually did.
But when Yunice used that check, she’d already covered up the payer info with a marker.

That was a habit people in finance developed–blank checks should never be exposed. Otherwise, they risked being filled out maliciously.
The company name wasn’t blacked out though. Wellinges Pharma.
Not that it told Tommy anything new. He already knew Yunice and her husband were both from Wellinges Pharma–he just didn’t know which department her husband worked in.
When he looked back again, Wyatt had already tucked the checkbook away.
So Tommy turned his focus to the math solution. He mouthed the steps silently, working through them in his head before nodding. “The steps are correct. But they’re–not suitable for most students. If you plan to share this with others, you should break it down into a simpler version.”
The girl didn’t look pleased at all–almost like Yunice solving the problem correctly was a personal insult.
She looked at Yunice. “Did you deliberately try to show off in front of him? Why didn’t you write the simpler steps? Or maybe you couldn’t?”
No matter what, she had to find fault with Yunice.
Yunice smiled. “The simpler version takes up a full page. You didn’t want me writing in your book, so I had to condense it.”
The girl said, “Didn’t you bring a whole checkbook? Couldn’t you have just used that?”
Yunice replied coolly, “You said it yourself—it’s a checkbook, not scratch paper. And seriously, who begs someone for help and acts so entitled? I’m not charging you, and you think you can just use up my checks? Hmm?”
That final “hmm” rose with a mocking edge, calm and dismissive.
The girl’s face stiffened. She quickly said, “That’s not what I meant. Why are you putting it that way? Are you trying to embarrass me in front of Tommy?”
The way she emphasized “boyfriend” was far too deliberate–clearly meant to provoke.
Yunice smiled sweetly. “You say that like I’m being petty. Is that what you’re trying to imply?”
“Or are you saying I’m bullying you? That’s weird. You came to me, asking for help. I helped you. Now you say I was showing off? So what do you actually want?”
She blinked those wide, sincere eyes right at the girl.
The girl was completely flustered. “That’s not what I meant!”

then whist did you can!”
- She ene strende vang in Yanice’s thetorical trap, struggling to come up with an excise.
Vinice sipped her drink, thoroughly enjoying the scene.
She’d said it before–ahrer kids were all their thoughts on their facet.
“Enough. Tommy said sternly. “Yunice was genuinely trying to help. You were the one making assumptions. Apologize.”
The girl pouted, clearly unwilling, but mumbled, “Sorry.”
Tommy continued, “If you’re truly sorry, then be respectful and ask her properly how to solve the problem.”
The girl’s eyes flashed with resentment, but she still turned to Yunice for help.
Funice asked, “Now can I write in your book?”
Then she began writing the full breakdown of the steps.
As she wrote, the girl watched intently. Suddenly she lit up. “Wait–you wrote this part wrong!”

She looked like she’d just struck gold, and immediately reached for Wyatt. “Look, your girlfriend made a mistake here. Isn’t that wrong?”
Wyatt jerked his arm away with a look of disgust.
She pushed on. “No really, she got it wrong!”
Wyatt Jooked at her coldly. “So what?”
The girl froze. She thought if Yunice made a mistake, her boyfriend would be embarrassed.
Tommy stepped over and took a look. “She didn’t get it wrong.”
Then he turned to Wyatt. “See? She did it right.”
Wyatt frowned, clearly impatient.
All those complex symbols–he couldn’t make heads or tails of them. He had no way to tell whether Yunice’s answer was right or wrong, no way to follow her logic.
But Tommy? One glance and he got it. He even understood Yunice’s thought process.
Wyatt stayed silent. Tommy assumed he didn’t want to get involved, so he didn’t press it. Instead, he started patiently explaining the step to the girl.
From the corner of his eye, Wyatt looked over at Yunice, his expression darkening.
No wonder he and Yunice always ran out of things to talk about–they weren’t even operating on the same level. The things she was passionate about were totally beyond him.

He used to ask her to teach him stuff, thinking it’d help them bond.
But seeing Tommy like this made him realize what kind of impact admiration could have.
Everyone loved the strong. Didn’t they?
