A Base

Since the conditions in Talford Village were not very good, there was not way Samuel would let his sister and Zoey stay in those run-down houses. As a result, he had given orders to build a base overnight. Although the houses were made out of wood, there were all kinds of facilities inside. There were leather sofas, crystal chandeliers, high-class. chairs, and so on. Everything was incredibly luxurious.

The students were extremely excited. They began showering Samuel with flattery.

"Oh my god. Mr. Samuel is so generous!"

"That's right, that's right. It's all thanks to Zoey. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't have such a good opportunity and living conditions!"

"I envy you so much. Having a boyfriend like Mr. Gilbert must be so nice. I bet you're always happy!"

"Exactly. It's such an unfair comparison!" A girl shot Lucille with a look of disdain and added, "Unlike some people, who keep shamelessly following others around even when they know that the person doesn't like them. Tsk, tsk, tsk. How can they be so shameless?" "I heard that we don't have enough rooms. The boys and girls will be separated, with four people in one room. Let's talk about it first. I don't want to be in the same room as Lucille! I might get nightmares!"

"Me too!"
