Chapter 12 Why Are You in Crestwood High?

“If a handsome guy like William were pursuing me, I would have said yes a long time ago,” said Melanie. Stephanie lowered her eyes. Her mind was filled with a whirlwind of thoughts. The whole school was aware of William’s affection for Stephanie. He would bring her gifts daily, but she never agreed to be with him. What they didn’t know was that, although William dropped by every day, he never confessed his feelings to her. He would simply leave the gifts and leave without giving her a glance. How could she agree to that? In the past, she might have regretted it. Ever since she laid eyes on that stunning man at the party, she found the boys at school lacking in comparison.

Despite being the second son of the Tates, William held no real power. It was common knowledge that the entire family was under the control of his older brother, George. The Burnetts and the Tates had a long-standing friendship. If Stephanie could seize the opportunity to get close to George, she could potentially become the mistress of the Tates in the future. The mere thought of it sent shivers of excitement down her spine. … Outside the school gates. A Rolls-Royce gleamed in the sunlight.

Occasionally, he would check the time on his wristwatch. Beside him, the personal assistant, Danny Jarvis, observed his president’s anxious demeanor. He touched his nose and said in a low voice, “Mr. William won’t finish school for another half an hour. If you’re truly worried about him, should I message him to come out as soon as he finishes his class?” George’s cold gaze shot at him and said, “Why would you think I’m waiting for him?” Danny was momentarily puzzled and asked,

The sort of things she possessed were something these individuals could only dream of. Danny heard the knocking on the car door. He curiously peered outside and saw the beautiful face of a girl. Could it be that Mr. Tate was waiting for this girl? He asked, “Mr. Tate, should I open the door?” Looking up, George’s expression of disgust couldn’t be more obvious. Danny’s hand on the door immediately retreated. He recoiled as he sat on the side, trying to blend into the background. Stephanie knocked for a while, but there was no response from inside.
