Chapter 196

Darius arrived at the university gates and saw almost all of his lecturers standing there. He tensed, confused by that sight. However, he quickly snapped to his senses, approaching a lecturer who had taught one of his classes.

"Professor Brown, because Professor Plinsky and Dean Fletcher are both dealing with some troubles, I don't know who to ask regarding my request for a month's leave."

Professor Brown was aware of everything that had transpired. Thus, he felt pity for Darius and was quick to nod.

"I already know about your request and am giving you my approval."

Darius did not expect things to go so smoothly.

Nevertheless, he reached out to shake hands with Professor Brown, hoping to express his gratitude.

After the handshake, Darius left the scene with lightning speed as he could not wait to be at Almiron City.

Erin had successfully booked flight tickets to Almiron City by the time Darius joined her in the car.

"Let’s go to the airport since we already have the tickets," said Darius, whose tone indicated his satisfaction.

Erin's eyes rounded as she drove slower and asked, "Shouldn't we wait for those two bodyguards of yours? The ones from your grandfather?”

"Edward and Bridget?" A frown marred Darius' face. He had almost forgotten about the two before Erin brought them up. Curiously, he asked," I haven't seen those two since returning from the state. When did they tell you about wanting to go to Almiron City?"
