After Robert left the office Mr Stanley couldn't believe what had just happened. Everything really happened so fast that he had to slowly move over and sloutch himself over and settled into the cohch. The whole thing that happened within the last few minutes played in his head. How could Mr Aiden just sell out the school to this tour! " He thought to himself as he say there gazing outside the windows. Mr. Stanley's mind raced with thoughts of disbelief and disappointment as he slumped into the couch, his eyes gazing out the window without focus. He couldn't wrap his head around what had just transpired. The school, his beloved institution, had been sold to a tourist mogul without so much as a whisper of warning. It was unthinkable how Robert could be the owner of such prestigious institution. "How could Mr. Aiden do this?" he thought to himself, his mind reeling with questions. "What about the students? What about the faculty? What about the legacy of this school?"He thought about

The corners of Robert's lips crinkled with a radiant smile as he ended the call. He couldn't be happier since he had been calling her for the last few hours and she wouldn't pick up. The next thing, a message chimed into his phone and he knew at once that it was her residential address. He took it, and his assumptions were right.He quickly walked into the bathroom and took a quick bath before coming back out to get dressed in casual Gucci shorts and a shirt. He quickly brushed his hair, took his car keys, and made his way outside. When he met Simon, he informed him he was going out and asked him for directions to the residence, since Simon was more familiar with the area than him.He quickly entered the Audi Q8 and revved the engine to life. Once the gatekeepers opened the gate, he drove his car outside and hit the streets to Lily's house. As he drove, he wound down his window while the cool breeze blessed his skin. When he pulled up into Lily's street, his eyes widened with anticipa

CHAPTER 95.Lily led Robert into her room, a sanctuary filled with her artistic creations. The walls were adorned with portraits, each one a masterpiece that told a story. Robert's eyes widened as he gazed upon the vibrant colors and emotions that seemed to leap from the canvases that were sitting pretty on her walls.Lily smiled, her eyes sparkling with pride. "Let me show you my favorites," she said, guiding him to a stunning portrait of a woman with piercing green eyes and raven-black hair. "This is 'Midnight Bloom.' I painted it during a phase where I was experimenting with bold colors and textures. It might not be professional, but I'm so in love with it."Robert's gaze was captivated by the subject's beautiful smile. "She's beautiful," he breathed. "The way her eyes seem to gleam in the dark... it's as if she's sharing a secret. That is a beautiful portrait right there, you did a good job Lily."Lily's fingers brushed against his as she gestured to the next portrait. "And this on

They both exited the car, and a wave of confusion and shock washed over the students who saw Miss Lily step out from Robert's car. The whole place fell into a deep silence as every eye fixed on them. Their eyes widened in shock as they took in the sight of Miss Lily and Robert together. They had all heard the rumors about their alleged affair, but to see them stepping out of the same car was a different story altogether. Not after what had just happened yesterday!One of the students, a tall and lanky boy, was the first to break the silence. "Whoa, is this real life?" he asked, his voice laced with disbelief. "I mean, their pictures were littered all over the internet just yesterday, and I heard that Miss Lily was also fired, but today they're coming in the same vehicle? They just confirmed our assumptions that they're dating."Another student, a girl with a mop of curly hair, chimed in. "I thought they fired her? What's going on? She's not supposed to be back in school today.""Or may

Jacob froze in shock as he turned to look at the boy who had just spoken to him. "What do you mean I was kicked off the team, Jack?"Jack burst out laughing. "I mean you were kicked off the team at the last minute, Jacob. Don't you get it already?""What do you mean by 'last minute'? I did the final rehearsals just last night, so what do you mean by 'last minute'?" He frowned. "Where is Mr. Leo?""What do you need Mr. Leo for when I just told you that you're kicked off the team at the last minute? I'm the captain, and anything I say stands!" he reminded him.Jacob let out a deep sigh as a wave of confusion washed over him. Just last night, he had done the final rehearsals with the team, and everything had gone well. He had been picked to represent their school and their team in a friendly match, but now Jack was saying he had been kicked off at the last minute. Which "last minute" was he talking about? They had all left the pool at the same time, so when had the decision been made?He
