Vanessa Cameron looked at Anna and said, "I do not blame you. It’s my mistake too. I didn’t help you
on that day."
Anna didn’t make a sound.
When Vanessa Cameron mentioned it, Anna didn’t know what to say. Vanessa Cameron can speak for
her and also has the right to not speak.
Vanessa Cameron looked at Anna. She always considered Anna as a friend, and she didn’t want Anna
to misunderstand her because of that incident. "If I tell you that I have a fear and I cannot speak in front
of so many people, will you believe me?"
Anna looked at Vanessa Cameron in surprise, "Really?"
No wonder Vanessa Cameron never participated in university activities. It turned out that she didn’t
have the enough confidence.
Vanessa Cameron bowed her head and thought of the past. She tried to repress some emotions in her
eyes. "When I was in primary school, once I went out with my father and saw someone stealing
something on the bus. I said it in public. Later, because of that, my father was beaten up by those
people, and he was hospitalized for a long time. After coming out, his personality became very strange.
Once, my mother helped someone outside. When she came back, my father found out and just
because of that they divorced."
While saying the last sentence, Vanessa Cameron smiled but some tears rolled down from her eyes.
She looked like a very rational person. If she hadn’t said it herself, no one would have thought that she
had experienced so much before.
Anna looked at Vanessa Cameron and felt very guilty. "I’m sorry, I don’t know that."
"It doesn’t matter." Vanessa Cameron smiled. "It’s been a long time, but till now, every time when I see
so many people around I can’t open my mouth even if I really want to say. That’s why I couldn’t help
you on that day. I’m sorry."
After hearing Vanessa Cameron’s apology Anna felt guiltier. After all, she quarreled with Vanessa
Cameron and blamed Vanessa Cameron for not helping her.

It was April and the weather was much warmer.
In the afternoon, when Anna came back home from university, Lisa said, "Anna, there’s a parcel for
you."
Parcel?
Anna walked over and saw a carton with her name and address on it. She remembered that the editor
of the publishing house messaged her that he had sent her sample books.
Anna excitedly took the scissors to open the package and found that there were ten sample books in it.
Lisa looked at her. "How can you buy so many books and why they all are the same?"
Anna looked at this pile of sample books. She couldn’t hide her excitement. She quickly said, "This is
not what I have bought, but what I wrote. The publisher sent me the sample books."
"You wrote it?" For a moment Lisa thought she had misheard.
Anna can write a book!
"Um." Anna took a photo with her mobile phone and sent it to Daniel Taylor, "Sir, my book is ready.
Would you like to have a look?"
She sent the message and thought Daniel Taylor would praise him. Unexpectedly, he didn’t reply for a
long time.
Anna went to her room to change and when she came back, she saw Olivia Taylor coming. Lisa was
talking to Olivia Taylor, "These books are written by Anna! She is really brilliant!"
Olivia Taylor was obviously shocked. She couldn’t believe it for a while and asked Anna, "Did you write
it?"
Anna nodded, "Yes. But not very well!"
Anna was embarrassed to see Olivia Taylor looking at herself with such a surprised look. At the same
time, Daniel Taylor came back…
