Chapter 698
Yvana said lackadaisically, “He doesn’t look that special with two eyes and one mouth, like anyone else. When the news of his appointment is released, you can see his photos on the Internet.”
Seeing that Yvana refused, Snow knew she had not provided enough incentive to Yvana. So she gritted her teeth and said, “When this is over, I will give you my turquoise necklace. Haven’t you liked it for a long time?”
Yvana did like the necklace, but Snow would never let go of it. So she did not expect that she could get it as a reward for taking Snow to see Sebastian. Yvana happily agreed. Just as she was just about to leave, Snow said, “Wait a second. Harvey will come out right away. Wouldn’t it be better to ask him if he wants to go with us?” Her idea was to let Harvey see her relationship with Sebastian and change his attitude toward her.
Yvana felt she had a point. But Sebastian had said that she could only see him in the principal’s office. Not that she wanted to see Sebastian. She was just worried about not getting the turquoise necklace if Snow did not get to meet Sebastian.
“Snow, why don’t we go first? It doesn’t matter if Harvey goes or not. He will see the governor often because of his Ellison Corporation connections. But you’re different. My uncle came to the Royal Creek Institute and would only stay in the principal’s office for a while. Don’t regret it if you’re not meeting him.”
Snow was undecided for a moment upon hearing what Yvana said. While she hesitated, a noise came from the lecture building, where people shouted Harvey’s name as they swarmed around Harvey.
There was no warmth in Harvey’s eyes, his smile not as enthusiastic as before.
Snow was overjoyed. She was expecting Harvey to refuse, but he agreed. Snow was secretly delighted, unaware of Harvey’s thinking. He thought that since Sebastian
had come to see his grandfather, it was only good and proper for him to meet him, but he could not care less about what Snow thought. He kept a placid disposition, his eyes revealing nothing
Yvana was also happy that Harvey was willing to go along. She and Sebastian had little in common and only talked about her studies when they met occasionally. With Harvey tagging along, the atmosphere would become too awkward.
The three of them walked together, and from time to time, there would be envious stares coming their way. Harvey was absent-minded, while Snow walked in the middle with her head held high, like a swan that would never fail. Yvana was walking on the other side, thinking about her necklace.
