Chapter 0573
Elliot’s sudden declaration of “Mentor, I like you” left Suzy completely stunned.
“What did you just say?” she asked, staring at him in disbelief.
Elliot was speechless.
Judging by her reaction, she genuinely seemed surprised. Did this mean she hadn’t realized it before?
But how? Even Diana had picked up on it–how could someone as sharp as Suzy not notice?
Well, no point dwelling on that now. He had already crossed the line and said everything.
Pressing his lips together, Elliot locked his gaze on her, his tone serious and resolute. He repeated his words, slow and deliberate, “Mentor, I like you. I’ve liked you for a long time, but I never had the courage to tell you. Now, I don’t want to hide my feelings anymore. Please, give me a chance!”
Suzy was speechless.
Why was everyone suddenly asking for chances? And this kid–did he even realize what he was saying?

Though his frustration simmered, Dylan held back for now, unwilling to escalate things in front of Suzy.
After all, it wasn’t like Suzy would entertain this kid’s feelings. Why should he waste his energy? All he had to do was sit back and enjoy the show.

Seeing that Dylan remained silent, Elliot turned his attention back to Suzy. “There’s no rule that says a mentor and student can’t be together Times have changed.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Suzy was both amused and exasperated by his audacity. “Let me make this clear–erase those ridiculous ideas from your mind. Format them completely. I will

always be your mentor in this lifetime, and nothing else.”
Her words hit Elliot like a gut punch, leaving him wounded but not defeated. Before leaving, he turned back to her and said with quiet determination, “I’ll make you change your mind.”
With that, Elliot left, having said everything he needed to.
Even though Suzy had rejected him, she had also rejected Dylan. That alone gave mind, knowing that leaving the two of them alone wouldn’t lead to anything.
