Chapter 8

His steps were solid as he walked gradually towards the school board, and he could already feel his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through.

Soon, he got to the administrative building of the school, which was littered with a lot of cars. Sweat was already dripping down from the corner of his face.

But there was one thing that he could not place his head around, and that was how he was going to get to the principal since that was his very first time coming to the administrative block.

"I think that I should ask around." He spoke slowly to himself.

His eyes spammed through the building, and he caught up with a security officer at the far end of the line. Walking slowly towards him, he stared at him.

"And how may I help you?" His face twisted into a frown immediately after they landed on him, but he was not shaken even for a single moment.

"I need to see the owner of the school. I know they are having a meeting now, and it's with respect to that. Very crucial." He added it to show its importance.

The eyes of the security officer farrowed almost immediately, and after a few moments, he burst out into laughter.

"Is there a problem?" Christopher inquired.

After a few moments, there was a sudden pause as he continued to stare at him.

"And why do you want to see him? to make a complaint or something. Have you ever asked yourself if he would want to see you?" The guard inquired with a frown on his face.

"And what makes you think so?" Christopher responded, seeing where he was driving.

Just then, a car sped off into the building, and a man with the perfect set of suits and two bodyguards came down from the car.

He had an air of grace and walked as though the world was under his feet.

Whoever it was, even without anyone telling him, he could tell that he was there for the board meeting.

Getting closer to the man, he was struck by the really hard truth: it was the father of the man that Kelly had. The proud school slut now had silver as one of his assets.

He could already feel his anger rising so badly that he had to clutch his hands to control it.

And from what he knew about him, he was a member of the board.

Looking from right to left, he followed him closely from behind, making sure that he didn't make any sound to attract attention.

Finally, he got to the hall that was used for the meeting.

He could feel his heart racing fast.

"We will have to sell the school out. That's the only thing that we can do now. He for sure will be able to clear our debts accordingly." He could hear the old voice of the school owner echoing in the hall.

Without any form of hesitation, he pushed the door open almost immediately. He could feel his heart beating hard against his chest, as though it were going to burst through.

The attention of everyone in the hall turned around towards him as they shot laser glares at him.

"Who are you?" He could hear the voice of the proprietor from the far end of the building, but instead of anger, it was somewhat filled with compassion and confusion.

Christopher could feel a familiar aura in the hall, making him spin his head around slowly.

It was the security officer who had insulted him earlier, and this time he had a much more terrible frown on his face, as though he were ready to rip Christopher apart.

"You fool." He growled at him, gritting his teeth with so much anger.

"Do you know him?" Mr. Maxwell, the school owner, broke into a slight cough but stopped a few moments later.

From the lab clothes that he was putting on, he could already tell that he was a student from the school and a final-year student at that.

"Just one psycho that is meant to be at the entrance of the admin block, but I am going to get him out of the place right away, so you don't have to worry, sir." The guard assured her with a slight sigh.

Walking towards him, Christopher could already feel the vibration of his large step under his feet.

"You don't have to sell the company. I know someone who can invest in the school." He noted, but the guard only burst out into laughter, followed by everyone in the hall.

Heads rolled with laughter.

"Fool. I can see that you have been eavesdropping. And what do you think that you are?" The guard walked gradually towards him, but his stare was firmly placed right on Mr. Maxwell.

He could feel sweat gradually dripping down from the corner of his face, trying hard to fight with the decision.

"Wait.." Mr. Maxwell's voice stopped everyone in the hall.

"Wait. Don't tell me that you are going to listen to this punk, are you?" The eyes of the man who was standing before him farred.

"And I guess you still want your job." Maxwell fired lightly.

"At least let's hear him out first. It's not going to make anything worse than it already is." He affirmed.

Immediately, he spat out the words from his mouth, and the security guards had to let him go.

"So... how do we contact this person?" Mr. Maxwell inquired, staring right into his eyes.

"Contact? The person is right here already." He announced this while everyone in the hall gasped.

Once again, gossip rolled out in the hall while everyone stared around, wanting to see who this strange person who could help was.

"Can you tell them to come?" Mr. Maxwell inquired further.

"There would be no need for anyone coming in because I am the one who wants to strike a deal with the school." His announcement was firm.

At first, there was utmost silence in the hall, but after a short while, everyone in the room burst out into laughter, clutching hard to their stomachs to control their rocking laughter.

"Where did this psycho come from? I wonder when they started breaking out of the psychiatric hospital." He heard someone say, making his knuckles clutch hard with so much anger.

"Kid. Do you think that we are doing some sort of child's play here?" One of them frowned at him, but he was not moved, not even for a single moment.

"My investment recently paid off. I am ready to invest 100 million dollars in the school, but that would be on one condition." He burst out into laughter almost immediately.

"What's your condition? Turn the school into some science lab psycho." Everyone laughed.
