Chapter 45 Chapter 45 Before he had confirmation about whether Carlisle got into any university, Gordon only invited sof his old friends.
Rory was a well-respected businessman at Rainville. What would he have thought if he had been invited even though Carlisle hadn't qualified for university? "It's true that I'm quite busy today. I only managed to get here after turning down a client. Yet, I still ended up being late! Sean will be having his college admission celebration in two days. Let's drink together then!" Rory opened a pack of Sobranie and handed Gordan a cigarette. That was an 18-dollar cigarette. Normally, Gordon could only look at it at the shops, "Sure. That's for sure!” He smiled and accepted the cigarette.
After ssmall talk, Rory took Sean away. Gordon, on the other hand, carried Carlisle on his back and headed home.
It was already the next day when Carlisle woke up.
He glanced at his phone and noted that it was already 12:00 pm the next day.
He was about to get out of bed to get a glass of water when he noticed the flashing MSN messenger notification.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe opened his messengerand saw that he had notifications from over 20 classmates.
Good heavens. Normally, no one initiated conversations with him. On the contrary, there were so many of them at a tlike this.
Perhaps this was reality. When he was useless and incapable, no one was willing to interact with him.
He tapped on each notification. Most of the messages were congratulatory ones, so Carlisle thanked them one by one.
Lastly, he tapped on Sarah's icon.
"Carlisle, my college entrance party is happening on July 5th. You have to come!" "Okay. Sendthe address!" Carlisle typed and replied.
Sarah had attended his own party, Naturally, he had to reciprocate the gesture. This was basic manners. Carlisle attended various classmates' college entrance parties for the foreseeable future.
But there was a little hiccup in between.
Sarah was unhappy because, Carlisle's congratulatory money was too little. Her family was also pointing their fingers at him. His phone cost more than 4000 dollars, but he only gave her 100 dollars? Carlisle was speechless. Sarah had given him 50 dollars while he had given her double that amount. How could they still be unhappy about that? Chapter 45 On July 10th, Carlisle was taking his afternoon nap when he was suddenly woken up by the sound of Gordon's and Hilda's laughter.
He put on his slippers and went to the living room.
Instantly, Hilda walked over to him with the admission letter in her hands. She wiped her tears in excitement and said, "Son, look at this!" "It's just an admission letter. Do you have to react like that?" Carlisle laughed.
"Of course. Of course, I have to. This is our pride!" "Hayley was right next towhen I opened the letter. Her eyes almost popped when she saw it!" Hilda was smiling ear to ear. She was pleased and proud.
Not too long ago, she had her fair share of criticisms from Hayley over Carlisle's results.
Now, Carlisle's results had silenced Hayley. So, Hilda was feeling exceptionally thrilled these two days.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Cand eat. I will bring you out in the afternoon to get your bank account sorted. I will deposit the 20 thousand dollars that you gave us. You can use it when you head to university!" Gordon prompted.
There was a hint of regret in his voice.
He hadn't saved enough for Carlisle to go to university. In fact, Carlisle had to even use his own hard- earned money for it.
"Keep that money for yourselves. I can settle my own university expenses." Carlisle picked up his glass to get swater.
"But you don't have money to go to university," Gordon commented in surprise.
"I sold smore equipment a few days ago. I have over 10 thousand dollars withright now!" Carlisle replied with a perfunctory excuse.
Previously, he sold the Heavenly Sword for 80 thousand dollars. He gave Sean and his parents 20m thousand dollars, respectively. His phone cost 12 thousand dollars. Recently, he spent almost a thousand dollars on food and online expenses. Thus, he still had approximately 27 thousand with him.
"That is money that you earned. I need to return the 20 thousand dollars to you! You won't be so lucky all the tighe Four years of university En. is going to cost quite a bit! Try not to play games that much. You might becaddicted to them!" Gordon said. His tone becincreasingly stem. He was worried that Carlisle would be too engrossed in his games and neglect his university studies "That's enough. Carl is a college student now. Do you think that he knows less than you do?" Hilda glared at Gordon angrily
Gordon took out a cigarette. He was about to light it when Carlisle m snatched it away from him. He laughed and asked, "Have you forgotten about our bet, Dad?"
