Chapter 72 Jordan is Nervous.
Jordan frowned as he was feeling uneasy. Are you sure that everything is alright?”
Ivan, standing nearby, quickly nodded.
He had checked everything meticulously against the checklist, so there shouldn’t be any issues.
Jordan nodded coldly. “Good. You can retire early if anything happens.

Milly and Anthony were taking their exams at the same school, while Stephanie was assigned to a school a bit further away. Their driver had taken her there early, and Jordan was solely responsible for taking Milly and Anthony.
In the car, instead of taking care of business matters, Jordan pulled out a book named ‘100 Things Parents Should Do During College Entrance Exams and started reading carefully.
Ivan wasn’t surprised at all. Jordan had practically worn out this book over the past month.
Just then, Jordan frowned at something he read and said in a deep voice, “The book says that parents. should give sunflowers to their children after the exam to bless them a better future…”
“Ivan, contact Mr. Grant from the ranch”
Ivan was confused since they didn’t have any business dealings with him at the moment. “Huh? Mr. Grant?”
It was weird for them to contact him out of the blue.
Jordan confirmed, “Yes, purchase an acre of sunflowers from him. It’s a gift for Milly after the exam.”
Milly was speechless. “Jordan, isn’t that too ridiculous? That’s a whole acre!”
What would I do with that many sunflowers? To snack on their seeds?
Jordan nodded. “Yeah, an acre is too small. Let’s buy seven acres since seven is a lucky number.”
“Yes, sir.”
Milly was at a loss for words.
“The book also says it’s best to wear a red dress, as red symbolizes victory and joy. Ivan, prepare one and put it on later.”
“What? I …” Ivan looked aggrieved.
No one told him that being an assistant had to wear a dress to send off exam candidates.
Besides, he wasn’t even Milly’s parent. It was a joke for him to wear that.
However, he remembered the rule number one in the workplace – Say no to tasks outside of your job description.
“Ahem, Mr. Burnett, I don’t think

“Yes, Sir! I’ll go buy a few dresses right away.”
We can’t let pride get in the way of money, right?

Milly was going to get a headache at the thought of seeing Ivan in a dress waiting for her at the exam
venue.
Turning to Anthony, she nudged him with her elbow and whispered, “You need to talk to Jordan. No one else will be doing this for the exams!”
Anthony blinked, “I think Jordan is doing the right thing. I don’t mind as long as you do well.”
He then addressed Ivan, “Remember to hold a banner that says ‘You can do it, Milly!” later.”
Milly sighed.
They’re going cuckoo,
Suddenly, Milly’s phone rang
It was William calling her.
“I’m at Crest Affiliated School too. We’re on our way, about ten minutes from the school gate,” Milly said coldly.
“Me too! We might even see each other… Wait!” William suddenly stopped mid–sentence.
“Boss, I think I see your car! Are you in a black Rolls–Royce today?”
Milly looked out the window and saw a black Bentley. Then she saw William’s messy hair as he stuck his whole body out of the back window, waving and shouting, “Boss! Over here! Boss!”
Suddenly, the driver stopped the car and turned to Jordan, who was still calmly reading in the back seat, “Mr. Burnett, there’s traffic.
It wasn’t really a traffic jam. It was iner that the Rolls–Roure and Bentley were hath ton large, and they had
