"I get it." Gwyneth sighed exasperatedly and nestled in his arms. "I knew this might happen when I asked him to return. I wouldn't have asked you to arrange for your people to watch him otherwise, though he's not deliberately acting blind to my problems either. Still…"

There were reasons she could not go into detail about it, especially regarding the fact that she insisted Waiz join her at the concert.

Her main motive was to set him free from his longtime mental burden too.

After all, he had only agreed to help Gwyneth in the heat of the moment without giving it real thought. As such, he quietly took slow sips of the tea Liam's secretary brought while Liam did not urge him to hurry since he held seniority. After a long while, Waiz finally realized that Liam was not about to let him go, obviously wanting a definitive response from him today. Waiz sighed at the thought—why were kids so stubborn these days?Finally putting away the tea, he began exasperatedly, "I agreed to Gwyneth's request to make a statement, but I realized afterward that I'm not the right person for that since I'm one of the subjects in the scandal. In fact, I became even more sure about that after meeting you—you have what it takes to uncover the culprit manufacturing the entire scandal. Would it really still be an issue if you dealt with it?""The solution has been righ

    After a restful night, Gwyneth returned to Greer College to meet up with Willa… Willa, for one, had placed high value on their meeting, to the point where she had postponed a class just so that they could discuss things without any interruption. Stirring her coffee, Willa chuckled as she muttered, “So, before moving on, let me apologize if I came off as snobbish the first time we met… I just have high standards since I want my work to be loved by many, you know? With that out of the way, let’s talk about the collaboration… I admit I like the plot, but… There are several conditions that you need to think about before we can proceed.” Nodding in response, Gwyneth found herself surprised that her demands weren’t outrageous at all.

To her dismay, Gwyneth simply grinned and replied, “Don’t worry, I have a feeling that she’ll soon see things the way I do…” Just as Aubrey was about to sigh in defeat, a young man suddenly ran up to them and said, “Well hey there, ladies… Where to?” It was clear that he had his eyes on Gwyneth, and following a smirk, Aubrey replied, “Kid, you’re years too early to try hitting on us…” Sheepishly scratching the back of his head, the man muttered, “I mean, can I at least have your number…?” Naturally, Gwyneth wasn’t about to humor this person, especially since he was already starting to annoy her.
