"Are you eagerly anticipating your upcoming visit to the prison?" The sarcastic undertone in Kevin's voice was unmistakable.Nolan simply scoffed in response.Undeterred, Kevin seemed unfazed by the lack of reaction. "Well, perhaps you shouldn't have gone to such extremes, stealing an expensive headphone just to alter everyone's perception of you," he said with feigned concern and a sly smile.The students burst into laughter at Kevin's words, and from his explanation, they began to entertain the notion that Nolan might have resorted to theft in an attempt to shake off the labels of being a wreck and poor, as implied by the rumors.Nolan, however, remained nonchalant, opting not to offer any response.Michael, who had been harboring anxiety and anger, couldn't contain his emotions any longer. "You foolish and thoughtless Kevin! Do you believe your popularity gives you the right to trample over anyone?"Freddie seized the opportunity to chime in, adding fuel to the fire. "I heard somet
Freddie was left speechless. Even if he wanted to refute the voice source words, he could deny the fact that the officers claimed they are here for a missing Onkyo H900M headphone which Nolan says is his own.Everyone immediately turned to Nolan pitifully.“He won't be able to go unpunished, with the presence of eight good high ranked officers!”Nolan scoffed and shrugged off the hands of those first police officers from his body. After doing that, he swiftly walked to the eight high rank officers and politely spoke aloud. “I hope you guys weren't stressed when walking over here?” He inquired.“Oh no.” The eight ranked officers smiled. “We're fine and okay when coming here. We must acknowledge that we felt blessed coming to help you detect your missing headphone.” They said, respectfully.Everybody felt stunned. They couldn't believe their eyes and ears; the high ranked officers were being respectful to Nolan. Not just that, but the most shocking thing was that they mentioned somethi
The three friends all smiled. “Alright. Let not ask for forgiveness again, since you all are at fault in one way or another.”Few into their happy conversation, the thirty officers came out and in the hands of one of them was the Onkyo H900M headphone.Micheal's heartbeat in excitement at the sight of the headphone that will be his. The color alone seems so relaxing and comforting. He quickly collected the headphone from them and inspected it cheerfully.“Who stays in hostel room 35?!” The officer sternly questioned.“Uh me?” Kevin had to respond,.acted hearing the fearful voice. “I stay in that room, but I'm not the only one staying in that room. There are four others there with me.” He wanted to push the blame unto the other roommates.However, the next words of the police officer made his heart sink. “We have already asked the teachers and they said, your other roommates haven't been to the room for like three days now since they went to their other friends to stay, so the only cri
Elijah, in a gesture of refusal, shook his head. "Young master, there's no need for gratitude. It's my inherent duty to assist you in any circumstance."Nolan responded with a soft smile. "Alright, I won't express my thanks again," he chuckled, discerning the gravity in Elijah's solemn tone.Elijah visibly relaxed a bit and delved into the question that had been lingering in his mind. "Young master, why did you request that I keep the master unaware of yesterday's events? Is there an underlying issue?"He continued, "In fact, you could have directly contacted the master, and I'm confident he would have expedited the resolution of everything."Nolan smiled lightly. "I appreciate your concern. I simply wish to spare my dad unnecessary stress. If he were informed about the events of yesterday, I'm certain he would be deeply worried about me and might even consider visiting the school, potentially revealing my identity, which I am keen to avoid.""Oh," Elijah gasped in understanding. Whil
The principal also felt Mrs Linton had overpassed her boundaries. He knew Nolan Mom had passed away, because he'd never have once seen his mother, and also in his personal information, it showed he had no mother.Even if Mrs Linton was unwilling to face Nolan, she had to, because of her son. Her precious son is in prison so how could she care about offending Nolan.She struggles to stand on her feet even with her gushing blood. It was obvious how amazingly she cares for Kevin.Nolan on a normal day after seeing this affection Mrs Linton had towards her son, might have pitied her by letting her see her son in prison, but not anymore, he won't allow such a woman receive a penny pity from him.“Okay fine, I can see you're not willing to listen to my plea, how about we compromise?” She asked,Nolan's eyes squeezed in anger. He had asked her not to say a word again, and here she's trying to strike a deal with him. “Okay, what compromise is that?” He was interested to hear what this woma
Nolan couldn't bear to endure their family issues any longer. He had already found satisfaction in the two slaps Mr. Linton had delivered to Mrs. Linton, making his presence unnecessary.“Principal, I'll be heading back to my hostel room now,” he stated, preparing to make his exit.“Wait,” Mr. Linton intervened, halting him in his tracks. His gaze shifted away from Mrs. Linton, fixing on Nolan with a sweet, genuine smile.“Yes, I am,” Nolan replied succinctly.Mr. Linton's gaze deepened, concealing a hidden bewilderment. He couldn't fathom why Mr. Linton had halted him.“You don't need to overthink it. I'm not here for a difficult conversation,” Mr. Linton reassured, observing the perplexed expression on Nolan's face.An embarrassed blush crept onto Nolan's face, realizing he might have been caught off guard.“I just want to ask for forgiveness on behalf of my son, Kevin. I know he wronged you, but please find it in your heart to forgive him.”“Gabriel, what are you doing? You can't p
They had both concluded that Nolan seems to be in a rush, because of a little commotion somewhere. “No.” Nolan shook his head. “I have something to do outside, so that's why I'm in a rush.”“Oh, we understand you can leave. Hurry up and leave quickly, before you're late.” Nolan knew from their expression that they had misunderstood him. They were mistaken that he was in a hurry to one of his part time jobs, but he had no intent to explain to them, because he knew somebody out there was waiting for him.He didn't walk to the gate, rather he ran and when he got outside, he spotted a low profile blue car.Doubt filled his eyes, as he was confused if the person in the car was the one waiting for him. Either way, he walked over and asked. “Are you the one waiting for me?” The man inside the car immediately smiled hearing Nolans words. “Yes. Please come in.” He stepped out of the car and opened the car seat for him.Nolan wanted to refute, as he feared that the students might see them. H
How was he to let them know that the boss of YEX conglomerate group is none other than him? They will choke in surprise and disbelief for months if he was to tell them that… hehe.“Are you really sure you're fine?” Micheal inquired once more, with a deep gaze.It was obvious he didn't believe Nolan's excuse. Why will Nolan choke when nothing has happened?Even the other two were doubtful, but they didn't ask any questions. They let it go, and continued their discussion.Edmond added. “I saw on the news that they will be opening a new hotel by tomorrow. In fact, the socialist and well connected people are going to be there. People like us are not privileged to be there, as we can merely be called any of the above.” His tone was laced with sadness, at the ending.Micheal knew it was time to change the price, after seeing Edmond getting emotional.He coughed slightly, before facing Nolan. “Are you going to be free after class tomorrow? How about we go over to a fun place just for enjoyin
