Chapter 246 Emma (2/2)

”Emma, have a seat.” Jam

short form of Germanic names that began with the element ermen meaning 'whole' or 'universal.' It was introduced to England by Emma of Normandy.”

His words stunned everyone in the room.

James was notorious for hating to read the most, but here he was, spouting knowledge about the origin of the word ”Emma.” He was eloquent about it, too.

Learning all that couldn't have been easy for him.

Emma looked around the room at the people's surprised faces. She didn't quite understand it; nothing particularly unusual had happened anyway.

She didn't think there was anything specifically wrong with her today either.

She smiled wide in an attempt to mask the flush on her cheeks. ”That is indeed the origin of my name, yes.”

”See? I'm right. You all don't believe me.” James didn't know that he was just a man with slight talent and superficial learning in the eyes of his family.

He thought that his family members were surprised by the origin and meaning of Emma's name.

He thought so because he was also surprised at the beginning.

Angela was excited. It looked like her son had grown up.

She used to think that James was rather dull, and he had detested studying more than anything. It appeared that they had been wrong with their assumptions. He only needed the right person to motivate him to make progress.
