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
You're just hurting yourself by lying so blatantly. Well, I've got some exciting news to share.” She said, looking delightful.Nolan knew her exciting news might just be nonsense or a spoiler to his soul, so he spoke. “Never mind. I'm not interested in whatever news you have.”Princess feigned ignorance to his words, and went ahead to say what she wanted to. “Hansel and my beloved Darcy will be going out again to shop as usual. Darcy will be getting a hundred times what you can't give her in your relationship.”Nolan sighed, before saying nonchalantly. “Congratulations to them.”He didn't care one bit about where they went or where they would be going. Even if they went to hell or heaven, it's none of his business.Princess felt Nolan was just pretending to be indifferent, so she snorted. “You can white being a strong guy. Leave a strong guy attitude for the likes of Hansel and the others.”Nolan hissed inwardly, as he impatiently exclaimed. “If your purpose is to have a meaningless c
“I'm sorry for wasting your time.” Freddie's head lowered, looking embarrassed as he saw many people gathered.If he had known before, from the moment he stepped into the store about their shoe prices, he wouldn't have wasted the workers' time.“What's going on here?”“I heard this guy wasted the workers' time thinking he wanted to purchase a shoe.”“I really don't know why some people had that character. Always wanting to delay and make people happy for nothing.” “That's not what happened. I didn't choose to purchase again because I don't have that much money.” Freddie quickly tried to explain.No one listened to him, their disdain increased meticulously. "Well, isn't this a rare sight? Someone clearly lost in the wrong side of town," another worker sneered, his words dripping with contempt. Freddie, caught off guard, looked up with a furrowed brow, unsure if the comment was directed at him.How could they say he lost his way here, when he definitely walked in here with his feet.
The workers' hearts tightened, as they felt pressured by Nolan's words. They couldn't believe they had almost mistaken Nolan as a worthy customer.“No, he has no money. His friend couldn't even afford a shoe of 2,000 so what could be expected from him?” They tried to let that thought stick in their heads, Nolon only remained motionless, as he feigned seeing the workers distress.Meanwhile, the manager was in his own thoughts. He reasoned about Nolan 's condition, and felt he wouldn't lose at all.It will be the workers' misfortune, if eventually Nolan pays up.It wasn't in any way going to affect him, after all, he had already always instructed and warned the workers on numerous situations, to be polite to any customers that walked into this shop, even if they bought anything or did.The manager nodded, after thinking, the pros and cons. “Alright sir.” The chest of the workers heaved slightly as they heard their manager agree to Nolan.“Oh God! What am I going to do now?”“I'm sure,
