Chapter 87
“I think my budget should be about five thousand to six thousand dollars,” Nolan said slowly as he looked around the car shop. “I’m not sure if it’s too much or if it’s just enough… but let’s work with that range for now.”The words had barely left his mouth when Cole’s eyes widened in complete shock.“Six… SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS?!” Cole shouted, almost jumping. “Nolan! Are you serious right now?”He grabbed Nolan by his shoulders and shook him a little, as if trying to wake him up from a dream.“Did you really just say six thousand dollars?” Cole repeated, louder this time.Fiona and Gabriel who were walking around the car shop quickly turned around to look at them. They had heard Cole’s loud voice and wanted to know what was going on.“Yes, six thousand dollars,” Nolan repeated, now feeling a little nervous because everyone in the shop was now staring at him.“Six thousand?” Cole said again, his voice still loud. “As in, one, two, three, four, five… SIX?!”He covered his mouth with h

“How about you take this taxi with Fiona?” Nolan said as he stepped away from the car door and looked at Cole.Cole’s eyes lit up and he didn’t hesitate to move forward. He wanted to be the one to sit down with Fiona initially. “Really?” he asked, already moving closer to the car. “Okay! No problem!” He was so happy that he didn’t even wait for Nolan to say anything else. He just went in and sat beside Fiona, grinning from ear to ear but Fiona didn’t smile. In fact, she was very angry and if a glare could kill someone, Nolan would have been dead. Her face changed so suddenly because this wasn't what she wanted. She didn’t want to sit beside Cole and she didn’t come all the way just to sit in a taxi with Cole or just to be with Cole. Her plan was to be alone with Nolan and she wanted to sit close to him, talk to him, maybe even flirt a little, just like last time butnow, Cole had ruined everything.She was so mad and she didn’t want to be in the car with Cole at all. His voice annoyed
Chapter 85
Nolan started thinking about Fiona again and he remembered the last time he spoke to her, and how it didn’t end well. She had said some things that really annoyed him and she had acted in a way that made him sure she wasn’t someone he wanted to be close to. In fact, after that last encounter, he had promised himself that he wouldn’t even speak to her again but now, she was coming with them to check out his car.He didn’t even want to see her face again, but Cole had already told her to come along. It was too late now to stop her because Cole had already made the plans without asking anyone else.Nolan sighed and looked around. He spotted Gabriel packing his books as he was getting ready to leave the classroom too and he quickly walked up to him.“I was waiting for you to say something about Fiona coming with us,” Nolan said, walking beside him.Gabriel scoffed and rolled his eyes. “What’s the point?” he asked, clearly annoyed. “Cole doesn’t listen and no matter how many times we

Nolan thought Cole was going to ask him some questions. He expected him to say something like, “How did you get money to buy a car?” or “Where did the money come from?” He thought Cole would be curious about how he suddenly had enough money to think of buying a car but Cole didn’t ask any of that.He was just too happy and too excited and he didn’t even stop to think about anything. He didn’t ask where the money came from and it was as if he was the one buying the car, not Nolan. Nolan was still waiting for the questions but he didn’t ask them. Instead, Cole went to Gabriel and started telling him all the types of cars Nolan could buy. “It must be big and sleek,” Cole said, raising his hands to show the size. “It must be finer than Jett’s car, and it must make noise when it moves. You know all those sounds those sports cars make? Something like that."Gabriel shook his head and said, “No, you’re wrong. What matters the most in a car is how it performs and instead of how fine it l

“How can you be so insensitive, Cole?” Gabriel said as he walked over and joined their conversation. He looked at Cole with a frown on his face.“Nolan just told you that he spent the whole night at the hospital with his uncle,” Gabriel said. “And you’re already asking him about some penthouse gossip? Come on, Cole. That’s not cool and you can do better.”Cole rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. “Why must you always attack me, Gabriel? Every single time I talk, you find a way to make me the bad guy,” he snapped back.“I already told Nolan that I’m sorry about his uncle, didn’t I?” Cole added. “His uncle is better now, and he said it himself. So what else is there to say? Can’t I talk about something else?”“This was just a normal question and a normal conversation so stop acting like I said something wrong.”Before Gabriel could reply and turn things into a big fight, Nolan quickly cut in.“Where did you hear it from?” He asked, looking directly at Cole. He didn’t want the boys to
Chapter 82
Three hours after the surgery started, Nolan was still in the hospital hallway, looking tired and worried. His eyes kept looking at the big clock on the wall. It was already very late at night.His aunt was sitting beside him and she looked really tired too, but she didn’t want to leave. Nolan looked at her and said, “Auntie, it’s really late. You should go home and rest. You’ve been here since morning.”But she shook her head, declining immediately. “No, I want to stay. I want to see your uncle when he comes out of the surgery room and I want to be here when he wakes up.”Nolan understood how she felt, but he also knew she needed to rest. He tried again to convince her.“Auntie, I know you want to wait, but the doctor said the surgery is going to be long. There are still five more hours to go and that’s a lot of time. You need to eat, take a bath, and get some sleep. Uncle won’t be awake until morning.”His aunt didn’t agree at first and they went back and forth for some time. She ke
