It was a litle past eight in the evening. Most of the students were in the auditorium watching the eve who weren’t interested in the show and were just wandering around campus.
i evening show, but there were also plenty of students
The instant Marcus showed up, someone snapped a photo of his gorgeous looks and posted it straight to the school forum. Honestly, there wasn’t a single pri active on the Sunspire High School forum who didn’t recognize that face.
Marcus walked down the wide campus road, drawing attention from everyone around.
“Look, it’s Mr. Larsen
“That’s Mr. Larson who just spoke on stage! Oh my god, he’s seriously handsome.”
“His legs are to long. I bet he’s about 6 2 feet tall!”
“Larry’s already super handsome, but I didn’t expect his brother to be even hotter. Oh, I really want to get his contact info!”
“Forget it. Larry’s so unapproachable. I bet his brother’s probably just the same.”
“Honestly, the vibe he gives off is so intimidating. I don’t even dare get close.”
A group of girls followed Marcus from a distance, trying to suppress their excited squeals but not daring to get too close
Edith couldn’t help but smirk. She thought, ‘Would these girls still be this absessed if they ever saw Marcus’s other side?”
Marcus strode forward, and the constant chatter in his ears was driving him crazy. He was dying to tell them all to shut up. But if he said a word, he’d lose the game. He wanted the roward. He wanted to win.
Marcus’s silence made the girls watching feel a bit intimidated, so none of them dared to get too close.
As they neared the school gate, the crowd gradually dispersed, and Edith finally breathed a sigh of relief. She thought, “Good thing he kept his mouth shut if he’d actually said something, his whole mysterious vibe would’ve been totally ruined.
It wasn’t quite time for school to let out yet, so the gate was deserted.
“Didi, I won! Where’s my reward?” Dodo blinked at her, and his eyes were full of anticipation
Edith cleared her throat and said, “What kind of reward do you want?”
Suddenly, Dodo bent down and leaned close. His head moved toward her. Edith was startled and then hurriedly dodged.
However, Dado held her shoulders and brought his face close to hers. He said, “I want a kiss.”
Edith was speechless. If she didn’t know this guy had a mental disorder, she’d totally think he was just playing dumb to take advantage of her
She shoved him away, annoyed. “No way”

“Didi, you’re blushing!” Dodo giggled, like he’d just discovered the funniest thing ever.
Edith turned her head away. She couldn’t bear seeing Marcus so silly
She walked over to the curb and flagged down taxi. Before opening the door, she reminded him, “No talking once we get in. Whoever talks first will be punished!”
When she was
sa kid, she used to play this game with her younger brothers all the time. Her usually rowdy brothers would always go quiet for at least ten minutes whenever they played

“Phew!” Dada let out a long breath. “Not being able to talk was to hard, thidi, can we not play this game again?”
Edith grumbled inwardly, ‘Once this guy’s primary personality comes back. I probably end up really grateful made him play this game”
“Dodo, wail here for a minute,” she said. Then she stepped aside with her phone and called Larry
Larry hadn’t gone to the school to watch the show. Instead, he’d brought his homework home to study. But since there were purchs over, he was downstairs making small talk with them.
The guests visiting the Larson family were May and her parents, Flora and Spencer, Stella was the one handling the hospitality
“The moment we heard that May and Lany were attending the same school, we came over as soon as we got settled in, Flora said with a smile. “Sorry for showing up at your door so late. I hope we’re not disturbing you.”
Stella knew all about the Mernwick family’s situation. May’s grandfather had gotten into trouble, and the Bonreaaltogether.
whole family was affected. They had to leve
Stella and Flora had been best friends since they were young. One married into the Larson familly, the other into the Merrinwick family—both among the most prestigious families in BoneS
But not long after Stella got married, the Larson family assigned her husband to Sunspire.
People in their old social circle started to think the main household of the Larson family had been cast aside, and gradually, they began to treat Stella with less and less respect. But Flora was different.
She would call Stella from time to time to keep in touch, and whenever Stella returned to Bonrea, Flora would invite her out for coffee or listen to music, making her feel like she hadn’t been completely left out by their old circle.
Now that the Merrinwick family had fallen from grace, though Stella couldn’t really help them, she wouldn’t kick them while they were down, e
With a smile, Stella said, “I’ve watched May grow up. Back then, we were lucky if we saw each other twice a year. Now that you’re in Sunspire, you should come over for dinner more often.”
May smiled shyly and said, “Thank you, Mrs. Larson.”
Stella and Flora wanted to have a private chat, so they asked the kids to leave them alone for a bit. “Larry, take May to the study and work on your homework together”
Larry didn’t object. Back when he visited Bonrea every summer, he and May would always end up doing their homework together.
Just as he was about to get up, his phone buzzed, it was a call from Edith. He shot May an apologetic gesture and stepped out onto the balcony to take the call.
May pressed her lips together tightly. Her eyesight was sharp, so she’d clearly seen the caller ID on Larry’s phone. It was “Edith
She thought, “Edith? That must be that annoying Edith. Why is Edith calling Larry so late at night?”
May really wanted to follow him and listen in, but with two adults watching her, she had no choice but to stay put. Still, she couldn’t take her eyes off Larry.
Larry:
y stood by the balcony railing, answering the call. Before he could say anything, Edith said, “Larry, your uncle is Marcus, right?
Larry replied, “Yeah, what’s up?”
Chapter 68
He’s with me right now,” Edith said helplessly. “Can you come to the gate?”
Larry was stunned out of his mind. He thought, When did Uncle Marcus get to know Edith?
Just as he was about to ask, he heard a sph and childlike male voice on the other end. “Did, are you done with your call yet? I’m coming ove
Larry was stunned. He thought, ‘That’s Uncle Marcus’s second prisonality’s voice! Every time I’d heard that voice before, he had always been in Why does he sound so cute now? What the hell is going on?!
“There’s no time to explain. Just hurry over Edith said before hanging up.
Edith watched the big guy walking over, feeling helpless. She thought, Why is this man so clingy with the seriously don’t have the time or energy to babysit him.”
