Chapter 91

Harvey gently pressed his hand to his somewhat unsettled heart and frowned in bafflement.
‘Impossible! How can there be such a thing?’ he said in his mind. ‘I am Harvey Riddle, Mr. Riddle Sr.’s only grandson. I can have any woman I want. No way I would be into such an ill mannered woman.’ 2
Harvey seemed to have convinced himself. He did not stay longer and went to his grandfather’s office to meet his grandfather before going to class. On Monday, unlike usual, the Royal Creek Institute would have a flag-raising ceremony that high school and university students would attend.
After breakfast, everyone gathered at the sports ground. The flag-raising ceremony was about to begin when Harvey arrived. Everyone was talking, watching Harvey come over. Many girls screamed, and some boys could not help but look over. Harvey smiled and walked forward with calm steps. He found the line of his class and stood in the front.
While everyone was looking at him, a girl trotted up to him. Harvey subtly frowned, somewhat unnerved to be disturbed in public. When he looked down, it turned out to be Snow. Snow looked at him with a shy smile. “Harvey, I will see you during lunch break.”

After not seeing her in two weeks, Harvey did not reject her but nodded slowly.
But at this moment, there were cheers from those behind him.
“I have said it all long: Harvey and Snow are a perfect couple.” “Absolutely! This is the first time I have seen Harvey smile so gently at a girl.” “I have to say that these two gentle people look great to be together.” Snow listened to these words and could not hide the joy in her eyes.
She deliberately did not go out to welcome Harvey this morning. Had she done it, no one would have noticed how special she was to Harvey. She had to let everyone know Harvey was paying special attention to her. Apparently, she succeeded.
Snow pursed her lips and let out a restrained, modest smile. She thought he would feel distant after being away for two weeks. But now, Harvey’s attitude toward her had not changed much, which made Snow feel a little relieved. She was determined to have Harvey for herself. She tried her best to keep the title of the most beautiful girl in school just to make herself worthy of him. As long as she had Harvey, no one at school could challenge her position. Nicole was standing not far away and had seen what had happened. She could not help but squint, recognizing Harvey as the man who interrupted her martial arts practice in the morning. ‘No wonder he is so rude; He likes Snow. Birds of a feather flock together, so he is unlikely to be a good person.
His handsome face will be a waste if that’s the case. All he got is his good looks.’ Seeing Nicole also looking at Harvey, Lulu rushed over. “Do you also think Harvey is charming?” It was the first time she had seen Nicole staring at a boy. “Good looks are all he got, and having good looks doesn’t mean he is capable.” Nicole did not bother to look at them again.
Harvey seemed to have sensed Nicole’s gaze. As soon as she looked away, he glanced in a direction and spotted Nicole. While he was the center of attention and other people were talking about him, Nicole paid him no mind. There was an unexplained frustration inside him. This was the first time he experienced the taste of being slighted, and it really upset him. But Harvey quickly collected himself and pulled back his gaze. The flag-raising ceremony was proceeding in an orderly manner. Unbeknownst to everyone, someone standing by the floor-to-ceiling window in the parlor of the principal’s office was watching the flag-raising ceremony outside. The man dug his hands into his pockets and watched the flag-raising ceremony downstairs with great interest. He kept watching when he found the person whom he wanted to see. It did not take long for Mr. Ellison to return to the parlor. “I am sorry for keeping you waiting, Mr. Johnston. I met my grandson just now.”
“It is okay.” Jared pulled back his gaze. “Have you thought about the proposal?”
Mr. Ellison knew Jared was talking about investment, and he smiled heartily. “Yeah, but I think you do not know the Royal Creek Institute very well. So I might as well take you on tour today and see if the Royal Creek Institute is a worthwhile investment.”
