“What do you mean by her crimes, Mason? Did the formal head nurse do something that is against the university rules?” she asked, her curiosity matching her facial expressions.Mason nodded his head and said, “She didn't just go against the school rules; she went ahead to exploit students by collecting medical fees from them.” His words instantly placed a shock on her face. “That's impossible! She wouldn't do something like that! Do you have any evidence to support such an allegation?” She asked, and Mason shook his head. “That won't be necessary since she was already fired and later confessed to it,” he replied, watching as she tried to wrap her head around the revelation. He didn't need any hint to know that the new dean of students knew the formal head nurse.“How come the investigator I placed on you never mentioned anything about that?” she muttered to herself, and when she raised her gaze to him, she realized Mason had overheard her words.Hearing her statement, Mason grinned a
Mason glanced at his phone, which displayed the location Jeremiah had sent him, and since he didn't want anyone on campus to suspect him, he asked him to park the car away from the engineering faculty. He was about to dial Jeremiah's number when he noticed Cleopatra elegantly exiting the faculty.Several boys' turned their heads in her direction, lingering their gaze around her, while most girls either panned their eyes admiring her or staring at the bouquets on her hands as she made her way to the location of her car. Surprised like everyone else, Mason furrows his brow when he sees Cleopatra slip the flowers into the trash can before she enters the front seat of her car, making a smile appear on his face, remembering the prideful look on Fedrick's face after he had given Cleopatra those flowers.Mason shook his head, and without wasting any more time, he made his way to the location where Jeremiah had parked his car.Mason arrived at the mansion, adjusting his eyes from his phone t
After eating lunch, Mason made his way to his room and settled on his bed. He glanced at the form Mrs. Sophia gave him and decided to fill it out later. He placed the paper on his stand and hit the shower.The rest of the day, Mason didn't have anything else to do, and since Haley was out on a business meeting and Helen and Sally went out, he spent most of his time on his phone and PS5 to pass the time before retiring to bed.The next morning, Mason opened his sleepy eyes to the sound that soared through his dream, raised his head to the morning light escaping into his room, and quickly shifted his gaze to the alarm clock, which was by his nightstand. 7:45 a.m., the digit blinked, and Mason jumped from his bed.“Shit the event,” he muttered, remembering his department was supposed to arrive at 7:30 a.m. at the Williams Mansion before proceeding to the museum. Without wasting any more time, he made his way to the bathroom and exited minutes later.Ignoring the steam escaping from his b
The event was meant for a qualified group of students from the engineering department, but somehow, an art student managed to pull some strings and was able to squeeze alongside the engineering department. Frederick, seeing Mason's expression, smiled and ran his finger through his hair, allowing the camera's flashes to glitter behind him. He pulled out his iPhone and car keys, then adjusted his sleeve to reveal his Patek wristwatch before stopping in front of Mason, who had his hand folded across his chest.At this point, most students' attention rested on him. “Oh, Mason, I thought you were rich? How can you come to a place like this with a mere taxi? Do you know where this is?” he asked, holding Mason's expressionless gaze, hoping his presence and luxurious lifestyle would intimidate him. Mason scans through Frederick's accessories before resting his gaze on his face. "This is the Williams Mansion; everyone knows where this is," he deadpans, adjusting his gaze to the background wh
Benedict cast a glance at her, then nodded for her to speak. Natalia cleared her throat and stepped forward, glaring at Mason before returning her attention to the instructor. “Concerning the names you're called, I think there was a mistake,” she said, pointing at the list in the instructor's hands.Benedict, with a knitted brow, quickly browsed through her list with confusion, and when she was unable to locate what Natalia was referring to, she adjusted her gaze from Mason to Natalia. “What do you mean by a mistake?” she asked. “Mason William isn't supposed to be on the list of the students getting the tour, please rectify the names before proceeding,” Natalia replied with confidence. Her statement resulted in murmurs roaming through the students, who curiously adjusted their gaze from Natalia to Benedict, caught off guard by her response. ‘Is this girl trying to get me fired!’ She muttered to herself.Mason, on the other hand, adjusted his gaze from the instructor to Natalia witho
With Benedict at the front of the line and Carl at the back, silence followed the group as they made their way to the east wing of the Willimas Museum. Students stare curiously at the men in black uniforms patrolling the premises with military-grade weapons. Just like their build, they all wore an intimidating aura, which made the students think twice and eradicated any thought of ever trespassing or breaking the rules. "Are those guns loaded?" a curious student inquired, his attention fixed on the M4 with one of the men. The girl walking next to him glanced in the direction of her friend before returning to the man, whose facial expression didn't give off a friendly vibe.“We better not find out,” the girl muttered, pulling at the boy's hand to catch up with the line.After a brief moment, they arrived at the building, which towered above their heads, holding the name and symbol of the Williams family. In front of the building were other museum staff who were also waiting for the ar
The presence of Benedict drew authority silencing the murmuring crowd, which adjusted their eyes from Cleopatra to the instructor, who furrowed her brow and said. “I believe we all know why we are here or do I have to give an orientation?” Benedict asked, her gaze specifying Natalia's direction. Natalia, forging innocent, adjusted her eye to her boyfriend who refused to utter any words to back her up. When she noticed Jacob wasn't ready to say anything she turned to the inspector and said. “It wasn't my fault, it was all Mason, why would you call out?” She defended, daggering her eye to Mason who had a grin on his lips.“It is true Instructor Benedict, Mason started the whole thing,” Flora chimed in backing up her best friend. Benedict was irritated by the intervention and turned to Flora “How shameless of you?!” Benedict retorted. “How is it his fault when you keep off someone you don't know?”Flora, hearing her words scoffed, then erupted into laughter. “Of course, we know Mason.
The atmosphere, which was once filled with enthusiasm and adventurous feelings from students, now lingered with silence and secret whispers, showing the groups' fears after discovering the value of most items in the museum. The student, not daring to go close, cautiously stepped away from the paintings and trailed behind their instructors, who led them to other sections of the building. Instructor Benedict noticed the students' suffocating mood, as they were unwilling to ask questions or go near any of the artifacts or displays. She stopped the tour in a section filled with delicate and fragile items, hoping to revive the student's lost eutheism. “I need someone to pick up that item,” she said, pointing to a transparent vase, which was displayed alongside other items. Her eyes scanned through the crowd, keeping a safe distance, and when none of the students were willing to step forward, she added. “There will be a reward at the end of today's event.” The student's eyes immediately
