“Mr. Hilton, it’s an honor to have you here. On behalf of all the teachers and students, I would Like to thank you for your investment of one billion dollars in our school.”
Carlos was fully dressed in an elegant custom-tailored black suit. His expressionless face did little to detract from the air of authority, confidence, and class he exuded.
The drastic changes in the way businesses were conducted both at home and abroad could be attributed to this very talented man. In fact, his every decision impacted the GDP of several countries
Carlos nodded indifferently in response.
Brandon stood up straight, brushing his hair out of his eyes with a weak, nervous smile.
“Mr. Hilton, what’s the Latest news on the construction plan of the teaching building? Is there anything else that needs to be modified?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Brandon asked cautiously.
Carlos’s eyes swept across his face before they Landed on Emmett.
“Have someone follow up on the construction of the teaching building. We must ensure that all the outlays are used in constructions and teaching only.”
As Brandon realized that Carlos had seen through his intention of embezzling the outlays, his face turned red
“Yes, sir,” Emmett replied respectfully.
“Mr. Hilton, don’t worry. I’ll cooperate with Mr. Cooper. Let me show you around the campus first.” Brandon stepped aside, trying his best to maintain a calm expression, as he stretched out his arm and invited
Carlos to walk ahead.
Without saying another word, Carlos walked through the big gate of the campus.
Meanwhile, Kasie cursed and grunted on the way back from the dean’s office as she and Debbie weren’t able to see him.
She had made up her mind to go to the dean’s office again at another time. Then she noticed the students clamoring in the distance.
“Look! Mr. Hilton is here!”
“Oh my God! It’s Mr. Hilton
“My Goodness! Mr. Hilton is more handsome than most movie stars!”
ALL the students and even the staff members were crowding up the walkway. Kasie looked forward curiously and saw Carlos at a glance. And the dean was following him around as if he was a very important man.
“Debbie, the dean is over there!” Without any hesitation, Kasie grabbed
Debbie’s hand and ran towards the crowd.
Unfortunately, Debbie lost her balance as she didn’t expect to be yanked by Kasie and she bumped against one of the security guards before Landing in a man’s arms.
An awkward silence permeated the air.
Debbie was already quite popular with the students as she was known as the campus belle.
