Chapter 72 Jordan is Nervous.
Jordan frowned as he was feeling uneasy. Are you sure that everything is alright?â
Ivan, standing nearby, quickly nodded.
He had checked everything meticulously against the checklist, so there shouldnât be any issues.
Jordan nodded coldly. âGood. You can retire early if anything happens.

Milly and Anthony were taking their exams at the same school, while Stephanie was assigned to a school a bit further away. Their driver had taken her there early, and Jordan was solely responsible for taking Milly and Anthony.
In the car, instead of taking care of business matters, Jordan pulled out a book named â100 Things Parents Should Do During College Entrance Exams and started reading carefully.
Ivan wasnât surprised at all. Jordan had practically worn out this book over the past month.
Just then, Jordan frowned at something he read and said in a deep voice, âThe book says that parents. should give sunflowers to their children after the exam to bless them a better futureâ¦â
âIvan, contact Mr. Grant from the ranchâ
Ivan was confused since they didnât have any business dealings with him at the moment. âHuh? Mr. Grant?â
It was weird for them to contact him out of the blue.
Jordan confirmed, âYes, purchase an acre of sunflowers from him. Itâs a gift for Milly after the exam.â
Milly was speechless. âJordan, isnât that too ridiculous? Thatâs a whole acre!â
What would I do with that many sunflowers? To snack on their seeds?
Jordan nodded. âYeah, an acre is too small. Letâs buy seven acres since seven is a lucky number.â
âYes, sir.â
Milly was at a loss for words.
âThe book also says itâs best to wear a red dress, as red symbolizes victory and joy. Ivan, prepare one and put it on later.â
âWhat? I â¦â Ivan looked aggrieved.
No one told him that being an assistant had to wear a dress to send off exam candidates.
Besides, he wasnât even Millyâs parent. It was a joke for him to wear that.
However, he remembered the rule number one in the workplace â Say no to tasks outside of your job description.
âAhem, Mr. Burnett, I donât think

âYes, Sir! Iâll go buy a few dresses right away.â
We canât let pride get in the way of money, right?

Milly was going to get a headache at the thought of seeing Ivan in a dress waiting for her at the exam
venue.
Turning to Anthony, she nudged him with her elbow and whispered, âYou need to talk to Jordan. No one else will be doing this for the exams!â
Anthony blinked, âI think Jordan is doing the right thing. I donât mind as long as you do well.â
He then addressed Ivan, âRemember to hold a banner that says âYou can do it, Milly!â later.â
Milly sighed.
Theyâre going cuckoo,
Suddenly, Millyâs phone rang
It was William calling her.
As soon as she answered, a loud voice was heard throughout the car, âHey, Boss! Which school are you at? Iâm at Crest Affiliated School. What about you? Boss? Can you hear me? Boss!â
âShut up!â Milly sternly interrupted his yelling.
Williamâs voice was too annoying.
âIâm at Crest Affiliated School too. Weâre on our way, about ten minutes from the school gate,â Milly said coldly.
âMe too! We might even see each other⦠Wait!â William suddenly stopped midâsentence.
âBoss, I think I see your car! Are you in a black RollsâRoyce today?â
Milly looked out the window and saw a black Bentley. Then she saw Williamâs messy hair as he stuck his whole body out of the back window, waving and shouting, âBoss! Over here! Boss!â
Milly felt a little embarrassed by his behaviour.
At that moment, a deep voice came through the phone, âWilliam, sit down. Itâs dangerous.â
âOkay.â
Sure enough, Williamâs figure disappeared.
Milly wondered if George was here to accompany William for the exam too.
She couldnât deny that her heart skipped a beat when she heard Georgeâs voice just now.
Suddenly, the driver stopped the car and turned to Jordan, who was still calmly reading in the back seat, âMr. Burnett, thereâs traffic.
It wasnât really a traffic jam. It was iner that the RollsâRoure and Bentley were hath ton large, and they had

encountered each other on a narrow commercial street. There was no way to pass unless one car backed
Jordan looked up and acknowledged the situation.
Georgeâs Bentley was completely blocking the road ahead, and there was no way to get through.
Milly also saw this and blinked. âThen we should back up. Thereâs another road we can take to get to the school.â
âNo!â
Before Milly could finish, Jordan interrupted, âWe canât reverse while sending off exam candidates. It symbolizes failure, which is bad luck.â
Milly was surprised at Jordan, a top graduate from a prestigious university, being so superstitious.
She couldnât help but twitch her mouth. But they couldnât just stay stuck like this.
Jordan calmly said, âJust drive.â
The driver hesitated as he looked at the narrow gap between the wall and the cars, his hands trembling. âMr. Burnett, if we force it, your car
He could afford to pay for such an expensive car.
Donât worry, I told you to do it. If the car gets damaged, so be it. Itâs just a car.â
Nothing was more important than Milly.
If she failed her exam because
this, heâd feel guilty forever.
The driver was about to step on the gas when Millyâs phone suddenly picked up a low, clear voice, âBack up.
The voice was so soft that Milly almost didnât catch it.
Then, a loud voice was heard again, âNo, if we back up, Iâll fail! George, I donât want to back up, I want you to tell the driver to drive through like Bossâs brother.â
âDo you have any idea how much this car is worth?â
âYou! Iâll call Grandpa and tell him that youâre bullying me! Others are willing to do anything for their sisters, but you wonât even waste a car for your cute brother. Youâre a coldâblooded demon!â
âSince Iâm a demon, Iâll freeze your bank account then.â
âNo, wait! Hehe, the driver can reverse as much as he likes! We shouldnât be superstitious at all! Youâre the best brother that Iâve ever had!â
