Chapter 19 Accusing Sam of Being Stingy in a Roundabout Way; a Problem Posed by the Head of Taragon University

The Harris Residence, located in the city center, shone brightly like a high-hanging mirror, resembling a holiday resort with its colorful lights.

Well-trained bodyguards in black suits patrolle

back and forth.

Dylan hurriedly climbed the expensive ebony staircase, admiring the exquisite carvings on the handrails that displayed a subtle luxury without any estentatious design.

George didn’t fancy Western-style buildings. Instead of the flashy yet shallow Western-style architecture, he preferred the understated, stable, and atmospheric Cheshian-style buildings. The first floor was designed in a purely Western style to accommodate the high ceiling of the living room, while the second floor blended Cheshian and Western elements, with Cheshian elements taking precedence.

Walking through the long corridor, Dylan knocked on the study door and, upon receiving permission, entered.

“Mr. George, Mr. Sam.”

The uncle and nephew were seated on the sofa, engrossed in their work, with several folders spread out on the heavy rosewood desk.

Sam was pouring tea for his uncle, George, when he noticed Dylan’s intriguing expression.

It could be described as such.

Curiosity got the better of him, and he couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the matter?”

Dylan replied, “Our guy was discovered by that girl.”

George and Sam exchanged glances.

Sam questioned, “Discovered?”

How is that possible?

“Just now, when the girl left, she spotted our guy.” Dylan found it hard to believe.

Since it was personally ordered by George, he naturally couldn’t afford to be careless. The people he selected were all highly skilled and adept at avoiding detection, yet they were discovered by an ordinary female student.

Sam inquired, “Was she scared?”

Dylan looked even more surprised. After choosing his words carefully, he said, “I believe it’s our guy who should be scared.”

Sam was momentarily stunned, but when he saw Dylan’s expression, he almost burst out laughing. However, he managed to hold it in because George was present.

up his embarrassment, he remarked to George, “She truly is a clever girl.”

Upon hearing the news initially, Sam was also taken aback. However, considering Isabelle’s intelligence and courage, he didn’t find it too surprising that their underling was discovered by her.

Dylan added, “Yes, so our guy revealed his identity and purpose to her to prevent any trouble for her.”

George inquired, “And then? What did she say?”

However, Dylan was looking at Sam, his face filled with hesitation, as if contemplating whether or not to reveal it.

Observing this, Sam quickly asked, “Did she mention me?”

He couldn’t help but feel a twinge of anticipation.

He had fever encountered such an interesting girl before and was genuinely curious about what Isabelle would say about him.

“Yes.” Dylan pondered for a moment, then relayed Isabelle’s words verbatim, “She said, and I quote, so the Harris family’s money is all spent on hiring bodyguards.”

Sam questioned, “What does that mean?”

Sam didn’t understand at all, but he heard George asked, “How much money did you give her?”

Prompted by George, Sam seemed to grasp her meaning. “150 thousand.”

I knew it.

George remarked, “No wonder she said that all our money is spent on hiring bodyguards.”

This was a roundabout way of accusing Sam of being stingy.

Sam remained silent.

“I was afraid of scaring her, and besides, 150 thousand is not a small amount for a teenage student.

George didn’t respond but turned to his assistant and asked, “Did she ask for money?”

Dylan shook his head. “No, she didn’t say anything else.”
