The Year She Stopped Being Crazy for Him novel Chapter 429

Finn held his ground for the moment, staying exactly where he was. He watched Hassan, a dark glint flashing in his eyes.

There was a type of person in this world who, from the moment they were born, stood at a summit others couldn't reach in a lifetime. As if that wasn't enough, life had gifted them with a level of talent others couldn't even compare to.

And Hassan was the absolute pinnacle of that type.

Finn had only noticed him because of Natalie.

Back when he was tutoring Natalie, she would often suggest methods and ideas that even he hadn't considered. When he asked her about it, he found out those insights came from Hassan.

He had been completely astounded. When he returned to his dorm that day, he felt utterly defeated.

He had clawed his way from an impoverished village to a booming city to receive the best education at a top university.

He had long ago made peace with the economic disparity between people, but the one thing he couldn't reconcile was raw talent.

"Finn!"

Seeing Finn, Kern immediately shouted, "Hurry up and come explain this for me!"

Kern pointed at Finn and explained to Mr. Ziegler, "Wyatt and I aren't eating alone. Finn is here too. You know Finn, right? He's a leading figure in internet tech, totally unrelated to our company's core business."

Kern was genuinely terrified that Mr. Ziegler would fire him over this. At his age, he really couldn't handle any unexpected hiccups in his career.

Mr. Ziegler, however, focused entirely on the connection between Kern and Hassan. "You know Mr. Carlson? Why didn't you say so sooner?!"

Mr. Ziegler turned to Hassan, bowing slightly as he held out his hand, looking nervous. "Mr. Carlson, it was all a misunderstanding. I had no idea you knew each other."

Hassan shook his hand briefly, gave a slight nod, and immediately withdrew his hand. "Everyone is waiting for you. Is there anything else you need to handle here?"
