Chapter 697
Snow’s heart skipped a beat. She knew that Yvana’s uncle was Sebastian, which was one reason she befriended Yvana.
The last time she could not speak to Sebastian at the party. Now that Sebastian had come to the Royal Creek Institute, she suddenly had a glimmer of hope in her eyes. “Yvana, are you sure you’ve not mistaken it?”
Harvey had changed lately, especially when he was in front of her. Snow was trembling in fear every time she spent time with him, unsure when he would dump her. So she figured she had to secure the patronage of the powerful. Her idea was that if she could rub shoulders with Sebastian like Nicole did, then Harvey would certainly not dare to neglect her.
Snow did not know what Sebastian was doing at the Royal Creek Institute, but she could not afford to miss this opportunity to see him. Snow tugged at Yvana’s sleeve. “Don’t you have your uncle’s phone number? We should call and meet him.”
Yvana hesitated because she and Sebastian were not close, and she felt it awkward to call him all of a sudden.
“Don’t tell me you can’t get along with Mr. Wyance.” Snow added.
Yvana took the bait. She retorted. “Of course not. My uncle loves me.”
She immediately pulled out her phone and made the call. After only four or five rings, the other side picked up. “Yvana, what’s the matter?” Sebastian sounded kind, but his voice lacked enthusiasm. But Yvana was already thankful as long as he picked up the phone. After all, Sebastian was a busy man. Had she called him on normal days, his secretary would have probably answered
ve calls, which was already the best-case scenario. So she was pleasantly surprised that she got so lucky today and that she did not lose face in front of Snow.
Yvana tried to suppress her excitement and pretended to be nonchalant. “Uncle Sebastian, I just saw your car driving past at school. Have you come to the Royal Creek Institute?”
Sebastian chuckled and said, “Yeah, I’ve come to the Royal Creek Institute to see Mr. Ellison. what’s wrong?”
‘He is here looking for Mr. Ellison. That makes sense now.’
