CHAPTER 35“Wow!” Charlotte exclaimed her eyes beaming with excitement. The executive assistant of the famous Alcantara empire has just given her the chance to see him whenever she wishes.Mike gave a warm smile. “So if you need me to help out with anything anytime, speak to Nathan, and boom, I’ll be there.”They broke into a laugh. “I’ll allow you two to head home now so that you can get enough rest,” Mike said and pointed to the exit with a warm smile. Nathan gave him a loving blink. “Thank you so much for everything, Uncle Mike.”“Anytime Nathan.” He replied and turned to Charlotte. “Bye Charlotte.”“Bye Mike!”Nathan escorted Charlotte out of the restaurant to the spot their vehicle was parked. It was a few minutes past 9 pm. Larry was in the driver’s seat, shoving some fries he had obtained from an eatery he had obtained downtown. He hurried his meal and pulled a napkin to wipe his oily lips. “I’m sorry for taking much of your time.” Nathan apologized to Charlotte after he ca
"Open the door!” Greg screamed and went on banging on Nathan’s door. If not for the darn vice chancellor, he wouldn’t have shown up at Nathan’s apartment. He even fought on the phone with his girlfriend that morning because of the incident and now, Nathan wouldn’t open the door. Greg was infuriated by the fact that Charlotte took Nathan’s side and had called to reprimand him that morning for placing Nathan in a bad state. They ended up yelling at each other. “Open this door!” he continued yelling, his lips curled in irritation. Greg was getting frustrated. He had been outside Nathan’s door, knocking for the past five minutes yet Nathan didn’t open the door. He concluded that if Nathan doesn’t open the door, he was going to abandon the apology quest he was forced to embark on by his father and the vic-chancellor. Back inside, Nathan continued to wonder. The way Greg was banging on his door was causing him to finalize that Greg must have found out that he had dinner with Charlo
Chapter 37“Let go of me!” Nathan snapped and yanked Greg’s hands off his collar. “Are you crazy?” Greg exploded. “You want me to stand before everyone at the court and apologize to you? Who the hell do you think you are?”Nathan sighed and strode to the table where he had stationed his phone. He grabbed the device and turned to face Greg. “I’ve already given you a piece of my mind Greg. You’ll apologize to me before everyone at the court and that’s the only way that I can take it that you are truly sorry.” He replied. Greg arched a brow. “Do you think I require your approval? Listen to me, Nathan. This is a threat. If you tell anyone that I didn’t apologize to you then…”“Then what?” Nathan fired while Greg was still speaking. Greg broke into a dry laugh. “I can see that you are flexing your nerves huh? Well, let’s wait and see.”“You can’t do anything to me Greg because I’ve got proof,” Nathan said and waved his phone. The confused Greg folded his arms across his chest. “What
Chapter 38“The Vice-Chancellor wants you in his office right now!” The class representative said and then turned around. He began walking away after delivering the message to Nathan. It was a few minutes to 9 pm and the boys had just concluded their lectures for the morning. They were about to hit the library when the class representative walked to the spot Nathan, Henry, and Charles were standing to give Nathan the message he had just received. Nathan turned to stare at Henry and Charles who were standing on his left and right. He sighed and adjusted the school bag that was hanging around his left arm. “Why would the vice chancellor summon you to his office this morning?” Henry asked. Nathan swung his head from left to right. “I have no idea and I guess the only way to find out is by going to his office right away.”“Should we come with you?” Henry asked. Nathan smiled. “You guys shouldn’t worry about a thing. I’ll be fine.” He replied. When the class captain walked up to them
Chapter 39The three friends traced their way to the famous school mall which was always an exciting place to visit and shop. The mall was stationed on campus to help students shop within the area especially those students who live in the school dormitories. Students like Greg hit the school mall whenever they wanted. There was a cafeteria inside the mall where Greg usually takes Charlotte for lunch. Students who come from low-income families avoid the mall like a plaque else they were going to squander their monthly stipend in a day.When Nathan, Charles, and Henry got to the entrance of the mall, they noticed how packed inside the mall was. They could see the crowd through the glass doors and windows. Word had gone around the school like wildfire that new items were stuffed in the mall. Most of the girls were there for the latest miniso collections while the boys wanted to check out the gadgets. Nathan and his friends walked into the mall. After they took a few steps inside, Nat
“Kelvin is here!”The students continued to whisper-yell and soon, the giggles of desperate girls echoed all over the four corners of the mall.The students who were fixated on their shopping compartments left the scene and strode to the entrance to catch a glimpse of the university’s biggest shot.Kelvin’s lifestyle is the definition of luxury. He goes for whatever he wanted and would go to the end of the world to lay his hands on whatever he wanted.It is said that he has an eye for catchy things. Ladies feel like stripping in his presence so he could notice them.Another fact about Kelvin is that he comes to campus a few times a week and turns up at class whenever he wanted. The girls always crave his presence because he wasn’t always available.Whenever the famous Kelvin turns up on campus, there’s always a wave of tension hovering around other rich kids on campus like Greg. The sight of Kelvin not only intimidates but also infuriates them. They were no match for him and were in n
Chapter 41“What the fuck?” Henry muttered under his breath. He turned to Charles who had the same shocked expression as he.Kelvin turned to stare at the boy who dared to interfere with his purchase. “And who are you?” he arched a brow.Soon, the students in the mall began trouping toward the scene and in less than a minute, a group of students had formed a circle around Nathan and Kelvin.Those who were making videos knew that a show was about to set in and there was no better time to make a live recording than this moment.Nathan cleared his throat loudly and looked Kelvin straight in the face. “You heard me right. I want that watch and I declared my interest first.”Kelvin broke into a laugh. “Silly!”“What the hell is Nathan doing?” Charles lamented.Henry sighed. “I don’t know what has gotten over him, bro. He suddenly thinks he can buy that watch.”Kelvin turned to his audience which was constituting the students and mall staff. He pointed a finger at Nathan. “This boy here wan
Chapter 42 Kelvin began rubbing his palms against each other vigorously. “You’ve got some nerves huh? Fine. Let’s play!” More groups of students kept making their way into the mall and soon, there was barely enough space to accommodate everyone. Kelvin’s bodyguards exchanged mischievous glances. They had seen their boss flaunt money around on several occasions so the bidding meant nothing. “Seems like this student is a newbie!” one of the bodyguards remarked. “He doesn’t know who is Kelvin.” His colleague replied. Kelvin pointed to the watch. “It costs 350,000 dollars, right? How about we start the bid by raising the price?” Murmurs broke out among the crowd. Harry flashed an impish grin. Raising the bid meant more commission for him. “Let the bidding begin with 500,000 dollars!” Kelvin declared and turned to Nathan with one of his dry laughs. Nathan was shocked but he managed to mask his surprise. He had expected the bidding to begin with the price tag but Kelvin had just p
