Danny explained with a chuckle, “It’s a recent internet slang that means ‘Greatest of All Time.’ You’re really amazing, Boss!” Just as Elise was about to say something in reply, her cell phone rang in her pocket. When she saw that it was a phone call from an overseas number, she immediately figured out who the caller was.
“It must be a call from Alexander. Boss, answer the phone while I tell the others our results,” Danny said before he left. Elise went back to her room before answering the phone. Alexander got straight to the point, asking, “Have your college entrance exam results come out?
Did you do well in the exam?” Elise answered with a smile, “I did well in the exam, so it won’t be a problem for me to get into Tissote University.” “I just knew you would make it.” “Aren’t you gonna ask me what score I got in the exam?” “Judging from the way you sound, you probably did pretty well in the exam. Let me guess. You scored at least 600 in the exam, huh?” “Uh-huh,” Elise replied with a smile. “I scored 713 in the exam. Better than what I expected, actually. I thought I’d only get a score of about 680.” “Congrats on becoming an undergraduate-to-be.”
“Thanks! When are you gonna come back, then?” “In a few days, I suppose…” Alexander glanced at Adam Griffith, his father, on the sickbed through the window. “My dad’s leg injury flared up yesterday, so he’s still in the hospital right now.” “In that case, just go ahead with what you’re doing. I’m hanging up.” “Alright. Take good care of yourself. I promise I’ll be back soon.” Alexander hung up the phone. As soon as he put his phone into his pocket, a woman’s voice sounded, asking, “Is that the fiancée your grandpa arranged for you?” “Uh-huh,” Alexander replied as he withdrew his gaze.
he insist that you marry a country bumpkin?” Upon hearing this, Alexander knitted his brows in displeasure. “Mom, she’s not what you think she is.” However, the woman replied, “I’m not interested in knowing what kind of a woman she is. All I know is that with her family background and social standing, she’s simply not good enough for you. Now that your grandpa has
a woman who could be of help to your career with a family background that’s of similar standing to ours.” “Mom, that’s my own business, so stop concerning yourself with that. Why don’t you care more about Dad’s leg?” Madeline Bowen was somewhat furious; this was the first time she saw her son talking
have you call off the engagement one day.” Alexander still wanted to say something, but Madeline wouldn’t give him the opportunity. “Alright, what matters the most right now is your dad’s injury.” Seeing that Madeline had said so, Alexander could only drop the subject. I’ll talk to her about it once this matter is over, he thought. “Don’t worry about Dad’s leg. I’ve hired the best specialists. We’ll be going home after this time’s surgery.” There were deep furrows in Madeline’s brow as she looked
wanted to go to a university at Tissote as well. Therefore, he chose to enroll at Elk Grove University, which was one of the top universities in the country, and submitted his application to the university. “It’s nice to go to college in the same city as you, Boss.” Elise looked at him with a bright smile. “Congrats on getting admitted to the university of your choice!” Unbeknownst to
more than 600 in the exam. They looked at me with admiration in their eyes, and when I told them that my boss is the top scorer in liberal arts, they had
you?” “Yeah, I’m very, very proud of myself.” As the two were talking, they heard the sound of a car engine outside. Danny immediately craned his neck to look outside, saying, “Who’s coming home?” As soon as Danny finished his sentence, Brendan strode in. His

studio from the brink of closing down. It was a huge favor, so you deserve the money.” Elise looked at the card. “Alright. Thanks for the card, then. I’ll keep it.” “Sure, of course. Actually, there’s another
