The next day, James Brown went to accompany the exam-takers again. However, Melody Yoody didn't come today, which left James feeling a bit disappointed. His heart was in turmoil—while he wanted to see Melody, every time he did, he found himself unable to say much to her, burdened by a deep sense of guilt.
Sarah Grandy performed quite well today. She was always naturally bright, but the poor relationship between her parents had also affected her. Fortunately, in recent weeks, her parents' relationship had miraculously improved—they no longer fought and spent their days supporting her studies. This made Sarah incredibly happy, and she put extra effort into her studies, consequently achieving better results.
However, James only stayed to have lunch with Sarah before returning to the company. There were plenty of things to deal with in the afternoon, and he had received a call from Linda Campbell urging him to get back to work.
