Victor looked at Elinor with surprise. He didn't expect her to be traumatized by dogs because of Maria. He frowned, "There, since you overcame your fear, you can calm down."
Elinor looked back. She was a little shy. "Thank you."
Victor wondered, "Thank me for what?"
"Thank you for helping me block the dog." Elinor grabbed Victor's hand and waved. Victor blushed. "Enough! That's so naive!"
Sonia smiled, and looked up at Quincy. "How come you come to visit me?"
"Actually, there is one more thing." Quincy looked at Victor. "Recently...there will be a mass-election of an entertainment show. It will cast several most intelligent children among the countries and play the games. I got the message a few days ago. They asked me whether I have a recommendation."
Sonia is somewhat surprised. "So you want Victor to go?"
"If he wants." Quincy smiled, "It's fine if he wants to live a private life. I just thought he's smart enough to represent the whole city. He won't make himself stupid in front of the audience."
Victor stood there wearing a sweater. At first glance, he used to look like a cold and handsome boy. He glanced coldly, and Elinor let go of him and whispered, "Are you going to record the program?"
Victor said, "Didn't you listen? Uncle Quincy came to ask me if I am willing to."
Elinor excitedly grabbed Victor's arm, "Wow! You should go! Then, you'll be a star!"
The light in the girl's eyes made Victor not dare to look directly.
She seemed to be genuinely happy for him.
Sonia said, "When you grow up, you are responsible for your own choice. If you are willing to participate in the program, you are to bear the result of being famous, I will not stand in your way."
Victor sipped his lips and thought of Elinor's expression.
He said slowly, "Well...I want to try for the audition."
"Sure." Sonia chuckles, "Mommy supports you, but you can't fall behind in your study..."
"I can skip the grade again."
Victor is full of pride when talking about this. "Daddy has helped me with a lot of homework recently. I think I can go directly to the second year of high school."
