However, Jasonâs next sentence made the couple tense up again after they had just relaxed.
âHowever, these two are the President of Hart Group, Brian, and his girlfriend Valda, who happens to be Miss Thellerâs former art teacher.â
The couple was dumbfounded on the spot.
Hart Group?!
Could it be that this Brian is the entertainment industryâs young master?
And now they have provoked⦠the Crown Prince?!
Yvo immediately raised his hand and slapped Wendy in the face, saying âLook at what youâve done! How dare you accuse others of falsely accusing you? You need to go back to school and apologize to the teacher.â
Wendy covered her cheeks, angry but unable to speak.
Yvo bowed to Brian and Valda, saying, âMr. Hart, Miss Theller, Iâm sorry about this. We will handle it properly and make sure that Miss Thellerâs teacher gets justice.â
His attitude was completely different from before.
After leaving the Reed family, Valda remained silent and didnât speak.
âWhatâs wrong?â Brian asked.
âI just feel like some peopleâs attitudes change too quickly, like flipping a switch,â Valda sighed. âIf it was just me standing in front of them today, they probably wouldnât have paid any attention. And if I tried to clear Mr. Yeatsâ name through normal channels, I would probably face a lot of obstacles and it wouldnât be so easy.â
âSo?â
âI just feel like power and status are really useful,â Valda sighed.
Although she didnât like using her status to solve problems, she had to admit that it was the fastest way.
âItâs only useful against people who are opportunistic and afraid of power,â Brian murmured. âIf you meet someone who is upright and unyielding, it may not be useful. Besides, there are many things in this world that power and status canât buy.â
Valda was slightly startled, as she could only see his profile due to him driving.
The thing that couldnât be exchanged⦠could it be referring to Grace? This thought crossed her mind at this moment.
She knew that he had spent many years of his youth for Grace, and she also knew how much he longed for her.
Even though he was treating her well now, and she was extremely certain of his affection for her.
But that feeling he had for Grace, for them, perhaps it was still like a time bomb, not knowing when it would explode.
Of course, itâs also possible that he had already fallen in love with her before this bomb exploded.
At least, the future has endless possibilities, and at the moment she decided to date him again, she had already thought through everything.
Anyway, she had to try her best.
âWhatâs wrong? Youâve been staring at me.â His voice sounded, pulling her out of her trance.
âItâs nothing, I just think what you said is right.â Valda said, then changed the subject, âBy the way, when will the Yvo couple clear Mr. Yeatsâ name and let the school revoke the decision to transfer him?â
