Declan looked at James and greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Lambert."
Everyone knew James was the university president and Declan was his student—there was no need for introductions.
James acknowledged him with a slight nod before turning to Hailey and extending his hand. "Hailey, it's time to go home."
Hailey hesitated, her gaze flickering toward Declan. She had planned for Declan to take her home, but now that her father had arrived, she had little choice. Slowly, she walked over to James' side.
James turned back to Declan with a kind expression. "It's late, Declan. Why don't you come along? I can drop you off first."
Declan shook his head. "Thank you, Mr. Lambert, but I'll head home on my own."
James nodded. "Alright. Stay safe, and if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to reach out."
With that, he led Hailey away.
As they walked away, Hailey glanced back at Declan, reluctance evident in her eyes. She gave a small wave, her hand lingering in the air.
Declan stood motionless, silently watching her disappear into the night.
…
Hailey and James sat in the luxury car as the driver navigated through the streets.
"Allie, tell me the truth—what's your relationship with Declan? Are you two dating?"
Hailey felt her cheeks heat up, but she didn't shy away. "Dad, I like Declan."
"This is nonsense. You and Declan are not a good match."
Hailey's eyes widened in disbelief. "Dad, do you have something against Declan? I see it now—you're judging him unfairly!"
"Allie, this isn't about his background. Declan is an outstanding young man. He was the top student of his year, and I personally invited him to the university. I've always recognized talent. Do you really think I'd look down on him?"

We getting somewhere with revelations...
Pls upload more chapters coz it’s not enough to be honest. But I’m thankful for the 4 chapters. Thanks! And author please let Celine have her justice and let those people who wronged her be punished. Pls, I am so invested in this and it’s so exhausting to read about Celine’s being bullied and hurt over and over again. Let Celine shine pls!!!🙏...
I knew it! Lucy poisoned them. But, It’s about time that the truth will prevail. Hope Adam would listen. I just hope that Carly and Lucy won't get a chance to interfere and stop Adam from finding out the truth! It’s time that Celine will get her justice and get back everything that’s belong to her especially her Identity. Whether Adam believes Celine, it’s up to him. But he’s a moron lol. I hate him from being so blind!...
I dont understand, why lucy hates celine so much? She is her daughter, biological daughter... Why she scemed against celine, as if she is her mortal enemy.....
Hopefully the truth comes out soon....
That’s just great! Let me guess, the truth won’t be revealed because Lucy and Carly poison those kidnappers and the doctors lol. In the end Adam will take Carly sides again lol! Same old same old....
