Chapter 36
Chapter 36 Rosebushes Emilia gazed at the kitchen, her anger rising as she saw them whispering among themselves. Theywere all rallying around Angela, who was only asking for her living expenses. But for what purpose?It was all for the sake of the family. If her daughter hadn’t married a financially struggling teacher like Donald, someone who lackedskills and money-making prowess compared to James, would their family be confined to such amodest home? If she had even half of George’s wealth, she wouldn’t care about the money Angela held. At least two hundred dollars out of the three hundred she earned each month should contribute tothe family. As an unmarried girl, all the money she earned should be devoted to supporting thefamily! After Hecate shared her thoughts, Angela obediently headed back to her room. As she passed bythe dining. table, she noticed Emilia’s displeased expression but chose to ignore it and thoughtfullylocked the door behind her. After sitting down, she switched on the slightly worn lamp, pulled out her notebook, and planned tocreate a detailed list of the medicinal meals she needed to prepare. Considering her morningclasses, which left little time for daily cooking, she aimed to establish a more reasonable schedule. Once the list was made, she would also give a copy to Jonathan so he and Sebastian would knowwhen she would be coming over. Additionally, she contemplated using the money she had for a small investment. With insights intothe next decade and economic trends, it seemed like a missed opportunity not to take proactivesteps to earn some extra income. After laying out her plans, Angela spent two days hustling. Alongside her school studies, she boughtraw materials for making milk tea and prepared toppings like grass jelly, pudding, and boba at thepart-time milk tea shop. The current milk tea was just instant powder, nothing fancy like in the future, at most just adding
some pearls. And there was basically no fruit tea on the market, and the fruit-flavored teas were allcarbonated drinks, which were nothing compared to the variety of fancy ones in the future.As long as she got a head start, she was confident in her ability to make money. “Angela, I must say, this pudding really adds a unique flavor to the bubble tea. It’s delicious! Howdid you come up with it?” Selene exclaimed as she tasted the new milk tea Angela had made..There were quite a few milk tea shops near the school, and Selene’s small shop didn’t have muchcompetitive edge. The daily earnings were merely average, leaving little room for savings aftersupporting herself and her son. Angela smiled. “Selene, this milk tea style is quite common abroad, although it hasn’t gainedpopularity here yet. If we take the lead and establish our brand, money won’t be an issue.” She had already agreed with Selene that for every cup of milk tea sold with toppings, Selene wouldreceive 20% of the pure profit, and they had even drafted a contract. The future’s widespreadpopularity of milk tea assured its appeal to the majority, so she wasn’t concerned about itsmarketability.

If Selene had any vision, she wouldrecognize the real business opportunity. Without such foresight, growing her business would provechallenging “Wow, Miss Kins, this is amazing!” Ron, tired of the usual milk tea flavors at home, was nowenjoying Angela’s delightful fruit tea. Angela affectionately rubbed his soft face. “You’re a good boy, Ron. Tomorrow, I’ll make you double-layer milk pudding.” “Double-layer milk pudding?” His eyes lit up with excitement as he gazed at her like an eager
fanboy. “Miss Kins, what’s that?” She blinked and playfully kept him in suspense. “You’ll find out tomorrow.” Selene felt reassured once again as she observed her son getting along so well with Angela andshowing genuine interest in the double-layer milk pudding. Having Angela around was turning out tobe a wise decision. With her recent experience exploring vegetable markets and various supermarkets, Angela quicklygathered all the ingredients needed for the double-layer milk pudding as soon as she left the milktea shop. Instead of waiting until the next day, she decided to start making it right away when she got home. Her plan was to complete it today and store it in the Lawson Family’s double-door refrigerator.

Sebastian grinned, observing her gaze on the plants. “Master Jonathan thought the entrance was abit too bare, so he had me move some potted plants here.” Angela nodded, surveyed the surroundings, and said to him with a smile. “The potted plants do adda lively touch. Last time I was here, I almost thought I had walked into the wrong place.” “What kind of plants do you like, Angela?” Even though they had entered the house, the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows still provided aclear view of the outside. Sebastian looked at the greenery by the entrance and couldn’t help butwonder what he should plant next, so he turned to ask her, Beyond the full-length windows, the bright sun poured through, creating a rhythmic dance of goldenbeams that brought warmth into the spacious house.
