“The functions of these buttons were memorized, can learn slowly, remember slowly. Now all look over here, come learn how to operate.”
Her method was simple but effective.
Everyone had a happy and relaxed expression on their faces, but once Lizzie started teaching them the real tech- niques, everyone’s expression became very serious.
Until everyone got the hang of it, the demonstration was a bit rough, but eventually everyone was able to do it.
Everyone who got off the stage was very excited.
During the teaching demonstration, the height and angle of the wheelchair were not right, so Lizzie had to choose to lean on the machine and stand up.
But standing on one leg for a long time consumes a lot of physical energy.
By noon, Lizzie was already sweating all over, her hair damp with sweat on her forehead, and the leg supporting her body starting to tremble slightly.
Emery was focused on studying and didn’t notice her surroundings.
When Raymond came over for a visit, he saw her looking so tired and he couldn’t bear it, so he told her to stop.
“Let’s take a break first, we’ll stop here for today. I’m afraid Liz can’t hold on.”
At that moment, everyone looked at Lizzie and noticed that something was off.
Emery quickly wheeled the wheelchair over and helped Lizzie sit down.
“It’s time for dinner, take care of yourself, let’s go to the cafeteria first, I’ll get you something delicious to eat, to fill you up,” Raymond generously said.
When he got to the cafeteria, Raymond asked the cafeteria chef to serve him a big plate of roast pork chop, plenty to
eat.
During dinner, Raymond noticed that Lizzie didn’t look well, so he said, “Emery, I’m giving you half a day off this af- ternoon. Take Lizzie home and let her rest.”
Lizzie didn’t refuse either, nodded and said, “Sure, I can teach Emery at home too, no problem.”
Raymond started to like Lizzie more, who wouldn’t like a reliable and hardworking junior, right?
Emery knew this was Lizzie giving him a chance. He learned to mentor first, then there would be opportunities for advancement. He knew he would be given priority.

Chapter32
Emery was happily eating roast pork chop, thinking to himself, “This niece is really worth spoiling.”
After finishing their meal, the two of them headed home.
They were at the door, and saw Theron standing upright.

As soon as Emery saw the uniformed figure standing at the door, his face, which had just softened, immediately dark- ened.
He walked up to the wheelchair and stood in front of Lizzie.
“What are you here for?”
The voice was full of unapologetic driving force.
Theron was just resting his eyes when he heard Emery’s voice, so he opened his eyes, revealing bloodshot eyes.
His gaze went past Emery and landed straight on Lizzie behind.
He stood up straight, but couldn’t hide the tiredness in his eyes.
Obviously, he stayed up all night.
Lizzie’s gaze lingered on his face for a moment, not at all surprised by his current state.

Just yesterday, Johanna was definitely making a fuss by clutching her stomach and pretending to be in pain.
In the previous life, Johanna was always there to support Theron, helping him through tough times. They could defi- nitely rely on each other and were best friends.
Now, who knows how much longer it will be.
A faint, mocking smile crept onto Lizzie’s lips.
That smile was icy cold, with no warmth at all.
Theron clearly caught the smile on her face, and his heart felt like it was suddenly squeezed by something, making it hard to breathe.
The girl who cares about him disappeared. Now, her smile only has sarcasm and distance in it.
She didn’t smile because of him anymore.
Theron’s thin lips formed a straight line.
He suppressed the emotions surging in his heart, his gaze locked tightly on Lizzie.
Finally made up my mind to tell her everything.
He thought, “As long as I tell her, she’s so sensible, she will definitely understand my difficulties.”
Theron’s Adam’s apple bobbed, “Lizzie, let’s talk in private.”

No sooner had the words fallen, Emery loudly refused.
“No way! You and my Lizzie have nothing to talk about!” He was firm and there was no room for negotiation.
Lizzie looked up and her eyes glanced over Theron’s tired but still upright figure.

She knew deep down that what Theron wanted to say could only be said in private. But if she didn’t stop him from saying those words out loud, he wouldn’t give up and would just keep bothering her.
So she reached out and gently grabbed Emery’s tense arm.
“Emery, it’s okay, let him speak.”
Emery looked at Lizzie’s calm profile, it was clear she had made up her mind.
