CHAPTER.87.The Vice Chancellor's eyes widened in shock, his mind reeling with the implications of what was happening. He felt like he had been punched in the gut, his breath knocked out of him. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. The owner of the school, Mr. Aiden, was standing right in front of him, and he had been unaware of it. The Vice Chancellor's face burned with shame and embarrassment. He had been trying to bully and intimidate Robert, not realizing that he was related to Madam Dorothy! Wait, didn't the people at the party say he was just hired for the job by the CEO? Or was he lying to me, Aiden?How could he be called "young master" when he really has no money?The Vice Chancellor's thoughts raced as he tried to process the situation. He had been so blinded by his own arrogance and power that he had never stopped to consider the possibility that Robert might have connections to the school's owner. He had been so convinced of his own superiority that he had never doubte
Robert's face lit up with a warm smile, his eyes shining with excitement. "Thank you, Mr. Aiden! I'm thrilled to hear that you're interested in selling the university to me. I promise to take good care of it and make it a world-class institution."Mr. Aiden nodded, a small smile playing on his lips. "I know you will, Robert. You have a vision and a passion for education that is hard to find. I'm confident that you will take this university to new heights. I will send all the necessary documents to your email, and we can finalize our deal with our lawyers first thing tomorrow morning before I leave the city.""Okay, that's fine by me. Thank you very much! I really appreciate it, Mr. Aiden!" Robert's mind was racing with thoughts of all the possibilities. He couldn't wait to start working on the university, to bring in new faculty and staff, to expand the programs and curriculum. He knew it wouldn't be easy, but he was ready for the challenge.And then, of course, there was the matter

The whole place turned silent and a deep wave of astonishment washed over the Vice Chancellor. He couldn't believe that Mr. Aiden just sold out the whole university to someone as stupid as Robert. His eyes wandered around the office, still in disbelief that Robert was now the owner of the university.How could that even be possible? he thought to himself.Robert snapped him out of his thoughts in a condescending tone, "Now go down on your fucking knees and call me your boss!"The Vice Chancellor's eyes widened in surprise as the realization dawned on him that Robert was now his boss and they even had a bet on becoming the boss of the university. And now he can't lose his job, not now of all times when he had already had his annual profits for last slashed by a whopping fifty percent. His face turned purple with embarrassment as he watched Robert stretch out his legs and position them for him to lick his shoes."Go on!" Robert bellowed. "What are you waiting for, Mr. Vice Chancellor? D
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 vice chancellor sighed. "Look, Lily. I am very sorry for that. I wasn't thinking straight when I told you to leave. So please, I am really sorry and I would love you to come back to the school."She rolled her eyes and looked away. "I'm sorry, but I don't think I can do that anymore. My name has been flying about. Coming back to the school would be to just help them spin up the PR, so I think my leaving is even the best."The vice chancellor's voice rose in a desperate plea. "Oh no, no, no, no, Miss Lily. You can't do that. No, you can't do that. I don't think that is the right thing to do. Many people might think the news is true and that is the reason why you are running away. I will advise that you come back to the school.Besides, what would happen to your students? They are already used to your lectures and your way of teaching; they were really disorganized when you left. Please, Lily, you're an asset to the school. I will love you to come back, even if it means to increase
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
Lily's lips twitched into a deep smile that started to turn into a blush."Thank you. You can make yourself comfortable on the couch. I will be right back," she said before leaving.Robert sat there, his eyes wandering around the living room while waiting for her to arrive.After a few minutes, she came back to the living room with a bottle of wine and two glasses. She placed it on the table, popped the wine open, and filled the two glasses, serving one to Robert. He collected it nervously, making sure to avoid eye contact with her. They both continued to drink in silence, stealing glances at each other.Robert held his wine glass and pretended to be taking a sip as he scrutinized her, thinking to himself, "This is so awkward. I hope I don't say something stupid." He finally sipped his wine, muttering, "Okay, relax, Robert. You got this. Just be yourself." This time, he glanced at her as if noticing her beauty for the first time.Meanwhile, Lily scrolled through her phone, using her p
