The intense vibe peaked in the restaurant. There were two sides of customers in that place. Some of them believed in what Sally and Hailey had claimed about Maverick, while the others felt the girls were the real trouble and dramatic. "It is still my business when it deals with branded clothes and stuff. Don't you remember who I am? Be careful with your words, Parker." Sally snarled. Her tone was full of arrogance and demands. She bravely behaved like that since her dad was one of the biggest shareholders of Sunny Drive University "Sally may have you kicked out of the campus, Parker." Hailey threatened him. Her expressions showed a worried mix-up with uneasiness. Yet it didn't look sincere since she would be happier if Maverick were dropped from the university. Maverick, acknowledging the real identity of Sally Muller, still stood in his position with the same persistence. In the previous time, he might let others hurt and use him. He even endured the feelings of being defamed

In the spacious VIP room, with slightly dimmed lights, the noise of laughter and chuckles combined. It was from both Maverick and Penelope exchanging their individual experiences about schools and their activities. "It is really unforgettable, isn't it? You pranked your best friend during his birthday," Maverick responded gleefully. He then chuckled as he imagined the scene when Penelope fooled her bestie about the class being dismissed all of a sudden. Penelope widened her smile and nodded. She was pleased with Maverick's reaction. She then added, "It is. It makes me miss the school era more, but I can only call so

At 10.30PM, Maverick parked his car in the yard of Reyez Mansion. The butler immediately welcomed Adelyn and him as they stepped out from the four-wheeled vehicle. At that moment, the entrepreneur also appeared with a relieved look. "Adelyn, finally you're home, dear," Adrian approached his beloved daughter. He also gripped both of her hands tenderly. His orbs were full of panic and concern, worried that something bad would have happened to her. Adelyn stared at her dad flatly, as if nothing dangerous had happened. Yet, she still felt deeply disappointed because the public might still look down on her talent as a designer. While on her right side, Maverick still stood up, witnessing the interaction between Adrian and his daughter. "Thank you for bringing her back, Mr. Parker. I really owe you for this important thing." Adrian also gripped Maverick's hand with a trace of blessing in his orbs. He felt Maverick

Two weeks finally passed. It was the time for the students to have the quizzies and projects week, not exceptionally Asher Parker who had just returned from his suspension matter. However, the suspension didn't make the spoiled chubby man realize his bad deeds. He didn't reflect on his self-improvement because he considered that two weeks were temporary break from classes. He was still the same Asher who loved to annoy his friends. Yet, when he saw Maverick from a far, his mom's suggestion appeared on the surface of his memory. He also recalled how his cousin got off from the limited edition Maserati car. In fact, he also realized that his cousin was the only student that owned the type of vehicle. "Let's bully him, Asher. Your cousin is a big loser in this campus." Steven, one of his close friends, suggested as he chewed bubble gum. His beam was tugged mischievously. Asher glanced at Steven sitting next to him. Usual

At the same place, Jacob kept watching his watch attached on his left wrist. He furrowed his brows and wondered, "Where is he? This is already one and some minutes. Has he forgotten about the meeting?" In the spacious room with the rectangular table and chairs aroound it, there were some plant experts and investors sitting and mingling. One of them, Raphael Scotch, queried, "What's wrong Mr. Green? Is something bothering you?" Jacob stared at him, but he didn't respond to the questions. Swiftly, he stood up and told them, "Wait here, I'll be right back. There is someone I need to fetch." "Alright, sir!" Most of the meeting atendees responded. He immediately stepped out from the room and swayed his legs to the elevator. The time he arrived at the ground floor, his ears perceived the noise of arguments between his receptionists and a familiar voice he was sure who the owner was. As his shoes clic
