Chapter 21: MOM IS COMING BACK.
After class, Jean Jordan walked out of the classroom with a cold expression, her long legs striding purposefully.The whole class let out a sigh of relief; that lesson had been quite a torture for them. For some reason, Jean seemed even colder than usual today. Something must have upset her!As the tension eased, everyone's eyes turned back to Cedric Brown, who looked completely transformed today. Even though he was wearing knockoff clothes, how did he have money to buy such outfits after only finding two thousand bucks last time?They were puzzled, but it was clear that Cedric had become the center of attention, and many of the boys were feeling a bit jealous."Wow! Tiffany, why did you take such a sexy photo?" one girl exclaimed. Tiffany shot her a glare; she had been planning to send the photo to the "rich guy." It was a bit provocative, but how else could she catch his attention?She hadn’t expected her deskmate to see it."Is it wrong to send it to my boyfriend?" Tiffany snapped,
Chapter 22: JEAN JORDAN'S TROUBLE
Cedric Brown was filled with surprise. He had never met his mother in his life. When she first called him, it seemed like she was abroad. He quickly asked when she would be back."I'll be back in a few days! I'm coming first, your dad is still over there," she replied.Cedric nearly cried. After so many years away, he asked her what she planned to do when she returned.Her answer was simple: "Buy, buy, buy!"Three "buys" made Cedric laugh. Just how much did his mom want to buy?"Enough about that. I'll reach out to you when I get back," she said."Do you even know what I look like?" Cedric asked curiously, considering he had never seen her. No, it was more accurate to say he had never seen her before."Silly boy, you're my son! How could I not know what you look like? Anyway, I have to hang up now," she said hurriedly.Cedric felt a mix of excitement and curiosity. He wondered how much money his mom had. She had sent him fifteen million in just a few days; how much was she planning to
Chapter 23: SO WRONGED THAT I WANT TO CRY.
Jean Jordan was in a complete panic. She had invested too much into this training company—her heart and soul were tied to it. Just last year, she had renovated the place, spending tens of thousands on custom cabinets based on the layout. The renovation alone had cost her around $15,000, not to mention all the other expenses. Now, the property management was threatening to kick her out, and it felt like the sky was falling in on her.What should she do? What should she do?Jean felt as if all her hard work was about to be snatched away, and the pain in her heart was unbearable. If she had to find a new location, pay the rent and deposit, and handle renovations again, not to mention hiring teachers, it would cost at least $80,000 upfront. The last time she sold her house, she had already spent around $7,000 to $8,000 on salaries, rent, and just a few additional items and advertising. Now, asking her to come up with that much money again was incredibly difficult!Biting her lip, Jean qui
Chapter 24: PUT YOUR HAND HERE.
On one side, Jean Jordan was crying in despair, while on the other side, Cedric Brown felt troubled and uneasy as he followed Farrah Moore to an unfamiliar place."Farrah, what is this...?" Cedric said, feeling helpless. He thought Farrah had mentioned something important over the phone, but he never expected it would turn out to be a birthday party for one of her friends.What did that mean? What right did Cedric have to attend a birthday party for Farrah's friend?"Just think of it as doing me a favor. My friend keeps trying to set me up with guys, and I brought you along to make her stop," Farrah explained."Huh? Farrah, you're still single?" Cedric was taken aback. Farrah was in her late twenties, a classic beauty with an elegant presence. How could such a perfect woman still be single?Cedric couldn't understand it. Surely, she must have many suitors. Was she just too picky?"Yes, I've been single for a while, and I plan to stay that way," Farrah replied."Forever? Farrah, you do
Chapter 25: DARE TO BULLY MY WIFE?
Cedric Brown felt embarrassed, but he enjoyed the feeling. You know, Farrah Moore has a great figure. It was indescribably wonderful.After touching her like this and kissing Farrah Moore just now, Cedric Brown felt that his trip today was worthwhile."Kiss her now!" Sierra Clark urged."Yes, you've touched her, why don't you kiss her?" Others also urged.Cedric Brown looked at Farrah Moore and found that her pretty face was flushed. Such a strong woman was actually a little shy, and she bit her lips lightly.Cedric Brown reluctantly withdrew his hand from Farrah Moore's back and said, "Forget it. We kissed just now, and now we kiss again. I'm afraid we'll have to find a place to hide later."Cedric Brown Farrah Moore looked wrong, and he hurriedly said that he couldn't continue to take advantage of her."Haha!" Sierra Clark laughed, "Farrah, your boyfriend is quite a pervert!""Not bad."Farrah Moore's face returned to normal. To be honest, she didn't know what to do just now. Even i
Chapter 26: WE BOTH BOUGHT IT TOGETHER
"Hey, are you mad?" Chalkley said with a smug grin. He had come here to show off, and now that he had found someone like Cedric Brown to pick on, he wasn't going to miss the chance."You’re getting upset over a joke? Come on, man, loosen up! You can't be this uptight!"Cedric glanced at him, and suddenly the atmosphere in the private room turned tense and quiet.Farrah Moore frowned deeply, "Chalkley, are you done yet?"Chalkley shrugged, "I'm just looking out for him. One car isn't going to be enough, right?""Does he need you to tell him that?" Farrah shot back coldly."I’m just saying it’s for his own good. If he can’t even afford two hundred grand, what’s he doing here? Farrah, your judgment is really off!" With each jab from Farrah, Chalkley felt his pride slipping, and his tone turned rude.Cedric stayed silent, distracted by his phone vibrating. He checked the message from Lisa Young, asking when he would come by to pick up the car.Since he needed the car, he sent her the loca
Chapter 27: VANITY
"Is something up?" Cedric Brown turned around, curiously looking at Chalkley, who had rushed out after him.Chalkley's face twitched with frustration as he cursed inwardly, *Damn it! You’re making it impossible for me to back down. I’ll find a way to get back at you!*He was really stressed about the remaining money, as he couldn’t think of a way to come up with it. So, he reluctantly decided to talk to Cedric about it.But when he noticed Lisa Young turning her head in confusion, the words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat.With a beautiful woman around, he couldn’t just say, “Forget it, buddy, I was just messing around.”After gritting his teeth, he let out a cold huff and said, "Nothing."With that, Chalkley turned and headed toward the restroom.Cedric chuckled, and Lisa Young looked on with curiosity. "Does this guy, Tom, have something going on?""Probably," Cedric replied with a smile, thinking to himself, *This guy came out because he’s broke. Let’s see what you do tomo
Chapter 28: YOU'RE DONE FOR TODAY!
When Jean Jordan heard Cedric Brown's words, she was taken aback. There was a masculine tone in his voice that she had never sensed from him before, making her question if she had misheard.Could Cedric really say something like that? Was it even possible?"Excuse me, what did you say?" Jean instinctively asked.She had been sitting alone in her office for a long time, with no one to comfort her. She had thought of many ways to seek help, even considering reaching out to some executives she knew, but she was well aware of what they could actually do.She felt trapped behind her own defenses and couldn't think of any solutions.After a long moment of despair, Cedric's call came through. She initially hesitated to answer but eventually picked up. In a way, his earlier words had touched her.Of course, that was all it was. Even if her employees had tried to comfort her, she would have felt the same way."I said, what’s going on? I can help you!" Cedric repeated his earlier statement."No
Chapter 29: MOM, BUY THIS PLACE FOR ME!
"I'm finished? Ha! Are you trying to make me laugh to death?" Terry burst into laughter, as if he had just heard the funniest joke.Jean Jordan shook her head at his mocking demeanor. The little bit of warmth she had felt from Cedric Brown just moments ago vanished completely. How could he let this guy get to him? If you can’t handle it, just walk away. She didn’t blame him; there was no need to fight back. Otherwise, it would only end up hurting herself in the end.It seemed like he had changed on the outside, but inside, he was still the same as before. Jean was filled with disappointment toward Cedric."Who the hell do you think you are to say I'm finished? Let me tell you, my uncle is the brother of the plaza owner. With just one word, I could have your wife, Jean Jordan, packing her bags and out of here by tomorrow. Do you believe that?" Terry sneered, coming closer, his thoughts filled with contempt.Is it free to act tough now? Any fool can put on a show? He wouldn’t mind slapp
Chapter 30: BOW AND APOLOGIZE TO CEDRIC BROWN!
When Terry saw Cedric Brown finally calling, he couldn't help but smirk. "So, did the cops come? You should have told them your wife got assaulted! Maybe your police buddies would actually show up."Cedric looked at him calmly as he approached. The few minutes of waiting felt agonizing! Terry's constant taunts made Jean Jordan's eyes turn icy. This guy was pushing her to the brink of despair!Was calling the police even useful at this point? Was this really Cedric’s way of trying to defend her, dragging her along with him while making empty promises? If that was the case, she had truly had enough!Once upon a time, she had considered accepting the man who had been sleeping beside her, but he was weak, unambitious, and his grades were terrible. His personality would likely lead to a mediocre life. So, she chose to separate, believing it was for the best for both of them.Today, she had seen a renewed Cedric Brown, as if he had changed, making her think he might actually amount to somet
