Chapter 80
Sharon stepped off the motorcycle, lifting her skirt gently as she spoke softly. “Hi, Richie.”
“Shari, you’re back. Go take a bath. You must be tired today,” Richard’s face softened into a gentle smile when he spoke to Shari, his tone as warm spring sunshine.
Sharon nodded, glancing at Nicholas beside her. “Thank you for today.”
“Whenever you go to Oriston Academy, you can count on me for anything. I’m always here to help,” Nicholas said.
“Okay.” Sharon nodded without hesitation. Her liking for Nicholas had increased significantly.
She didn’t dislike him, and he was capable of fending off the unwanted advances of many men. Sharon saw no reason not to continue building a good relationship with him.
Nicholas quickly got off the motorcycle and handed the keys to Sharon. “I’ll leave first. Bye.” Before the eight Vance brothers could confront him, Nicholas felt it was best to make a quick exit.
Marvin gritted his teeth. “Nicholas, are you leaving now? Why not come in for a cup of coffee?”
Wallace smirked. “Yeah, since you’re already here, we insist on offering you a cup of coffee. Otherwise, people might think we’re rude.”
Patrick’s gaze was heavy. “Are you just leaving? Is that how you show us respect?”
Nicholas paused, glancing at the gate behind them. He had an ominous feeling today. He didn’t want to go in, but if he refused, all the good impressions he had made would be ruined.
At that moment, Sharon spoke up slowly. “Richard, Nicholas is tired today. Let’s invite him another day.”
Nicholas breathed a sigh of relief. “See you.”
Richard’s face remained stern as he decided never to invite Nicholas again. He had gotten lucky today.
Sharon lifted her skirt and walked into the manor, sitting down in the hall. She noticed her brothers‘ strange looks and asked in surprise, “What’s going on?”
Marvin spoke up. “Shari, I think I need to have a talk with you about Nicholas. You’re still young, and what if some guy takes advantage of your feelings?”
Wallace chimed in. “Right, Shari. You’re too innocent. You don’t understand how complicated high society can be. Nicholas isn’t as good as he seems. He’s a bad guy.”
Patrick nodded. “And you’re too young to be dating.”
Richard summarized. “If you want to date, I’ll find you a suitable partner, I’ll make sure he listens to you.”
The other brothers nodded in agreement, thinking this was the right approach.
Sharon thought to herself, ‘Are they really looking for a boyfriend, or just a lackey? I really don’t need that. I already have plenty of lackeys, and I don’t
need one more.‘
With a sense of helplessness, Sharon spoke up. “Richie, I want to talk to you guys about Oriston Academy.”
“Shari, we almost forgot. You actually have an S–level bloodline. That’s amazing,” Richard said.
Patrick laughed. “You got the invitation at tén. You completely outshine those other high–society losers. Let’s see if they dare to act superior in front of us again.”

Shani was amazing today, really putting those people in their place. Vint were great. Marvin said.
Finally, Wallace spoke “Shari, the House of Ivory at Oriston Academy offers all the essential courers for noble upbringing you gradua plenty of high society young men will be lining up for you to choose from?
Julian nodded. “There are Already several politicians contacting me, saying they have suitable boys in their families. We can set up meeting the

Richard looked proud. “Shari is going to be the First Lady someday, No, scratch that, being the First Lady is too busy”
Sharon’s eyes flickered with a hint of frustration. “I want to go to the House of Obsidian.” The room fell silent instantly.
