That late? Guess I’ll have to wait till then...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theodore glanced between her and Eleanor, then brightened. \"Hey! I could help! If you’ve got questions, I’m free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora gave him a small smile. \"But you’re already teaching Eleanor. I wouldn’t want to interrupt.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor’s jaw clenched slightly, though her smile didn’t waver. \"Yeah... we were just going over a few things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s no disturbance!\" Theodore waved it off with a grin. \"Come on, the more the merrier! Let’s make it a group study session!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor, behind her bright expression, cursed Aurora silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora just smiled sweetly and sat down beside Theodore. \"Alright. Let’s study together, then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, your today’s task hasn’t progressed even a little. If this continues, you will lose one more skill.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor looked calm outside, but Aurora saw how she clenched her fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Aurora was curious about what Eleanor’s task was today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Theodore, Aurora had a rough guess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, the next second she heard the system say,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, I understand that you are trying your best, but if you don’t convert Theodore’s crush into love today, when he becomes successful after 2 months, it will become difficult to transform his love into obsession later.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theodore was finally going to be successful?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Great!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Aurora felt as if things were moving too fast and the system’s words were ambiguous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, according to Aurora’s dream, first Jonnah would be famous, and only after 2 years would Theodore be able to make a name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How come it has been shortened to 2 months?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it because...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora’s eyes brightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If her decision to open the studio for Jonnah and Theodore could help Theodore succeed, then she was glad to do anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe Eleanor has the same question as Aurora, because Aurora heard the system’s voice again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Yes, host. It is strange that Theodore is becoming successful so suddenly. But his success meter shows that he will soon succeed.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theodore, seeing both Aurora and Eleanor lost in thought, would smile and think,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Am I looking too handsome today?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He coughed lightly and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know I am handsome, and I am ready to send you my pics, so please focus now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora: \"...\" My narcissist brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor: \"...\" This is his only quality I don’t like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora blinked and looked at Theodore, mildly amused. \"You think we’re distracted because ofyourface?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grinned. \"Obviously. I mean, you were both staring into space. What else could it be?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor forced a laugh, flipping through her notebook. \"Maybe we were just trying to remember the formulas, Theo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh-huh,\" Theodore said, unconvinced. \"Or maybe you were just too dazzled by my radiance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora snorted. \"Radiance? Please. If anything, your glow’s coming from that ridiculous neon hoodie.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theodore looked down at his bright green sweatshirt, then nodded solemnly. \"Style icon, that’s what I am.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor chuckled again, though her fingers tightened slightly on her pen. \"Anyway... can we get back to the topic? I was asking about the difference between covalent and ionic bonds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, right!\" Theodore turned his notebook around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, the easiest way to remember is—covalent bondsshareelectrons, while ionic bondstransferthem. Like giving versus sharing candy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora leaned in, pretending to be confused. \"So if I give you my notes, that’s ionic, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Theodore replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if Isharemy snacks, that’s covalent?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora nodded, then smiled. \"Got it. I guess I prefer covalent relationships then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theodore laughed. \"See? Sciencecanbe cute.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor rolled her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Theodore was handsome, other than his handsomeness, there was nothing attractive about him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was childish and immature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora could read Eleanor’s thoughts on her face and wanted to slap her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her second brother excelled in both extracurricular activities as well as acting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was intelligent, resilient, and hardworking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dream she had showed her how much he struggled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had not opted to enter the entertainment industry, maybe he would have ended up as a physicist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the level of talent Theodore had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried to make things simple so they are easy to understand, but Eleanor might even look down on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’No...it can’t go on like this. I need to expose her face today.’ Aurora thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a smile, she said to Theodore,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother, before we continue, can you cook me noodles? I am hungry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theodore blinked at Aurora’s sudden request, then raised an eyebrow. \"Noodles? I’m your tutor right now, not your slave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora pouted dramatically. \"But I’m starving. You know I can’t focus when I’m hungry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theodore sighed, shaking his head like an older brother who’d been through this too many times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unbelievable. You think I’m just here to serve you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pretty much,\" Aurora said sweetly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave her a mock glare, then stood up with a groan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine. But I’m charging you. One bowl of noodles equals one signed favor slip from Princess Aurora.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She laughed. \"Deal. I’ll sign it with a glitter pen if you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even better,\" he said, rolling his eyes as he headed toward the kitchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before stepping out, he turned and looked at Eleanor. \"Hey, Eleanor. Want some too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor’s eyes widened. \"Oh! Uh, no... I’m fine. Really.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theodore smiled. \"You sure? I make killer noodles. Family recipe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m good,\" she said quickly, but her voice was a little too high-pitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tilted his head, misreading her expression completely. \"You’re just being shy. I’ll make an extra bowl anyway. You can decide later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for a reply, he disappeared into the kitchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor forced a smile, her jaw tight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside her mind, however, it was chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t ask for your dumb noodles!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you so clingy with her, but acting polite with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh, idiot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora watched her closely and then chuckled, leaning back in her seat. \"He can be a bit forceful sometimes. Doesn’t really take ’no’ for an answer when it comes to food.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor nodded stiffly. \"Yeah... I noticed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was an awkward pause before Aurora tilted her head and asked casually, \"So, Eleanor, what do you think of my brother?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor blinked. \"What do I think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah,\" Aurora said, smiling as if they were just two girls gossiping. \"You’ve been spending a lot of time with him lately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor glanced toward the kitchen, then back at Aurora. \"He’s... he’s great. Really friendly. Helpful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora nodded, still smiling. \"He is, isn’t he? He’s always been like that. Annoying sometimes, but dependable. And surprisingly talented too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm.\" Eleanor kept her tone light, but her grip tightened on her pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora leaned forward a little, resting her chin on her hand. \"Do you think you could ever be his girlfriend?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor’s hand froze in mid-air. \"W-What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora’s eyes sparkled mischievously. \"I mean, he’s handsome, right? And smart. He’s got the whole charming thing going on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor laughed nervously. \"Haha... well, I mean, heisgood-looking, yeah. But girlfriend? I don’t know...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why not?\" Aurora said innocently. \"You get along. You already study together. And I’ve noticed how you smile a lot around him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor glanced away, her ears turning red. \"It’s not like that. I mean... I don’t know what he thinks of me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora leaned back, crossing her legs casually. \"Well, I know my brother pretty well. If he didn’t like you at least a little, he wouldn’t keep inviting you over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor’s heart thumped a little faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was Aurora... trying to push them together?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or was she testing her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t tell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, she simply smiled and said, \"He’s really nice. I respect him a lot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then... you can’t become his girlfriend?\" Aurora asked in a disappointed tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor would only smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora sighed like an old granny, and she would say,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Honestly, Eleanor, I hated you after Olivia introduced you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor’s heart skipped a beat. She knows from the hatred meter that Aurora indeed hated her, but she never knew the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe today... Aurora might tell it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With an innocent look, she would ask,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But why? Aurora, I have never harmed you so...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora sighed and explained,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know, before you, there were a few girls who used my sister Olivia to get to know my second brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would pretend to like my brother and make him propose to them, only to back out at the moment. I thought you were one of them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor stared at Aurora, stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... I would never do that,\" she said softly, almost whispering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora tilted her head, watching her closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe. But it’s hard to tell, you know? You’re always so polite. Smiling. Saying the right things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleanor’s fingers fidgeted with the edge of her notebook. \"That doesn’t mean I’m fake...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed. So I want to ask, do you like my second brother genuinely? Will you ever become his girlfriend in the future?\" Aurora asked.\u003C\u002Fp>",1496,"2026-06-06T04:03:40.623Z",1,"novelbin.me","7bc23c499da0c130ddc24037244526718f79836900b3dfcb4d6ea008cdfaa243","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-212","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-210",614,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fborn-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-cover.jpg"]
