Chapter 59
The car ped down the road. Marcus, dressed in an expension suit, had a taut profile that clearly displayed his displeasure. Its perfectly shaped parted as he spoke, “Tam not Bod
“He looks like a big movie star,” Cathy whispered. “There’s no way someone like him has a childish nickname like Dods. Edith, your must be mine
Kane quietly continued driving inwardly, he thought. Ms. Lovett isn’t mistaken, our boat’s nickname is indeed Dolls. It’s just that childish?
Edith’s lips curled slightly. She realized that all her previous ententers had been with this man’s other personality. She hadn’t expected to meet his primary personality today.
And the certainly hadn’t expected that the “Mr. Laison” Kane mentioned actually referred to this mars.
Turning her game towards him, she spoke in an icy tone, “Since you’re not Dodo, what should call you, Mr.
Kane answered on behalf of Marcus, Ms. Lovell can address our boss as Mr. Larson.”
Edith thought, “Mr. Larson? Why does that name sound somewhat familiar?‘ She pondered for a moment but couldn’t recall where she’d heard it before and decided to let it go.
She wanted to ask why he kept seeking her out repeatedly, but with Cathy, the innocent student, sitting right next to her,
The car sped forward, and ten minutes later, stopped at the gate of Sunspire High School in Sunspire.
“Thank you, Mr. Larson, for bringing us back,” Edith said politely. “I wonder if you’ll have some free time soon so that I could treat you to a meat?”
Marcus kept his chin up in a high–and–mighty manner, thinking. There are plenty of people wanting to have dinner with me. What makes this girt think i would agree to go on a date with her?
Seeing his expression, Kane immediately understood. Marcus never went out to dine alone with any woman. “Our boss is very busy and may not have the time for a meal, Ms. Lovett.”
Kane thought his rejection was polite enough, but he didn’t expect to receive a cold glare from Marcus. The icy look made cold sweat break out on h
back.
Kane thought, “Mr. Larson only treats me this harshly when his other personality is in control. Did I do something wrong? Why is he holding a grudge now!
“In that case, I won’t insist, Edith said with a smooth smile, getting out of the car.
Marcus’s face darkened instantly. “Are you making decisions for me?”
Kane felt like crying “I thought you wanted to refuse.
He thought. I messed up. I shouldn’t have spoken at all. Mr. Larson has been wanting to see Ms. Lovett for a long time. How could he miss such an opportunity? I deserve to be blamed.”
As the atmosphere in the car grew tense, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Through the window, Kane saw Edith’s face and quickly rolled the window down. “Perfect timing, Ms. Lovett. Mr. Larson said”
“Shut up.” Marcus interrupted coldly. Just a moment ago, he had already relused, and now suddenly agreeing would make him seem inconsister
“Ms. Lovett, do you have any candy?” Marcus asked, his expression cool and composed, with an intrinsic nobility about him,
Edith silently marveled. When did Sunspyre get such a prominent figure? How come I’ve never heard anyone mention him?”

Dedo?!
“have some “cathy’s head popped up from the side as she pulled a lollipop out of her porket. “It’sychen–flavored; super tastyl
“Not a lollipop.” Kane cleared his throat, “It’s a black and gold tin filled with colorful candies.”
Edith immediately understood. These were the special candies awarded by the system, unavailable in any store,
They were originally meant to bribe her younger brothers, but Marcus had trakched some away, and the rest had been knocked to the ground and ultimately tossed in the trash,
She wondered, ‘But how does Kane know I had those candies? She opened her hand. “They’re all gonet
Kane was surprised. “Weren’t there supposed to be a lot left?”
Edith narrowed her eyes. Clearly, Marcus didn’t remember what happened with his other personality, but he was acutely aware of how many candies she had left. This meant that Kane had been keeping someone on her watch
She smiled lightly. “Mr. Davis, do you speak Aravian?”
Kane didn’t understand why she asked, but nodded immediately. I lived in Aravith for six months and studied the language a bit. I can speak some
Edith’s smile deepened. She thought.
So, it was Kane who had been sneaking around on my balcony that night. She couldn’t figure out what was so valuable about her that he’d go through all this trouble to monitor her and investigate her
She looked at Marcus meaningfully. “Mr. Larson, think carefully. You should know why those candies are gone.”
She turned to take a few steps away, but then came back. “Open the trunk, please. Thank you.”
Kane obediently opened the trunk. Edith liked the bike out with one hand, and Cathy quickly hopped on, wrapping her arms around Edith’s waist comfortably
Watching this scene, Marcus suddenly felt a surge of irritation. For some reason, he wanted to chop off Cathy’s hands.
Cathy shivered inexplicably. Curiously, she asked, “Edith, who were those two guys?”
Edith shook her head. “I don’t know.”
She only knew that the bodyguard’s last name was Davis and that the man was called Mr. Larson. She had no other useful information. She also know this Mr. Larson’s nickname was Dodo. And when she called him “Dodo,” the man seemed thoroughly annoyed.
“That Mr. Larson is really handsome. I think he’s even more handsome than Larry” Cathy gushed, covering het face, starstruck. “I suspect he’s a big celebrity, I’ll check later if he’s in the entertainment industry”
Edith felt a wine of exasperation. She thought, ‘This girl must have lost her mind chasing after stars. That man clearly holds a significant position, there is no way he is a celebrity
After parking her bike, Edith took the evidence to Day’s office.
“Isn’t this shocking? It’s a bunch of delinquents from outside the school!” Dan was stunned. ” that’s the case, we must call the police. This is beyond school jurisdiction; let the police handle it.”
Edith asked, “Won’t this negatively impact Sundpine High School?”
“It wasn’t done by our students, so how could it affect the school?” Dan waved her off and went to contact higher authorities before calling the police himself.
Standing outside the office, Edith smiled, thinking, “Hallie must have banked on the school keeping this under wraps to save face.
