EE OE Chapter 0468 Enzo’s POV After two hours of tirelessly cleaning the auditorium after the rampage of students made a mess out of the place, it was finally looking a lot better. A few other faculty members along with myself stayed behindto help clean and gather up the remaining students who were too shocked to move. I There were a lot of students who had lost time and memories over the last few days; some had lost over a week of memories. Then, there were the witches and those who have abilities that found themselves powerless and freaking out over the fact that they can't use their magic and abilities. It was mayhem but at least it was starting to come to an end. A headache was brewing at my temples; as I leaned against the wall of the assembly hall, I rubbed the bridge of my nose between my pointer finger and my thumb, trying to ease I some of the tension. “Are the students back in I their dorms?” Headmaster Prescott asked as
she returned to the assembly hall. “I believe so,” I answered. “Some could have gone to the student lounge.” “As long as they aren't making a mess,” Prescott murmured, sighing.
She looked exhausted. “Did you find out what happened?” Emily, the art professor, asked, approaching us. “It was Sarah,” Prescott answered, shaking her head with dismay written all over her face. “She used her abilities on them to get them to do her bidding and have them vote for her. As for why everyone is suddenly powerless, I'm unsure.
But I have my board members looking into it as we speak.” “Will there be consequences for Sarah?” I found myself asking. “Of course,” Prescott answered, meeting my eyes. “I grounded her.” “Grounded?” I asked. “She should be expelled.” “Her father would never allow that,” she replied, her frown deepened. “I did as much as I could.” “It’s bullshit,” I murmured, turning away from them. “I'm going to get some rest.” I left the building without another word, feeling waves of annoyance and fury. Sarah nearly cost this entire election for Lila; not to mention upset all the students in the school. This was supposed to be her second and last chance since she fucked up
last year. I couldn't help the growl that emerged from deep in my throat. Soon, my phone was ringing, and I found myself even more annoyed. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and without even looking at the screen, I barked, “What?!” “Woah...” I heard a familiar voice on the other end. “Is that any way to speak to a friend?” I froze entirely upon hearing her voice and soon, most of my anger was descending. “Connie?”
Chapter 648 Wilbur chuckled. "It's fine. I will tell you if am interested in something. Will you bid for me then?" "You brat." Leonard laughed and turned on his laptop. After working for a while, he said proudly, "I've transferred a hundred million to the organizer. I'm going to teach Amon a lesson tonight." I ‘Leonard, what are the procedures for this auction? It sounds exciting," Wilbur asked.
I Leonard chuckled and lit a cigar. "There will be rare herbs showing in this auction each year.
These herbs are usually ones that grew for thousands of years. Cultivators risk their lives to gather these herbs for the auction, so the prices can go extremely high. Everyone fights over the herbs to produce high-quality medicine, and also to show off their wealth." "I see." Wilbur nodded.
"If you are interested, go walk around the market. I need to get some rest. It's going to I
be an exciting night," Leonard said.
Wilbur agreed and stood, as he was desperate to go outside and explore.
However, as he went downstairs, he saw Leonard step into his bedroom with two women.
Wilbur shook his head and thought, ‘This guy is such a playboy." I Stepping out of the Royal Hall of Herb, Wilbur started wandering around.
As expected of a city known for its pharmaceutical business, there were herbs I that Wilbur could not even name lying around.
However, he did not find much surprise asthe most valuable herb he could find in the market had only grown up to a hundred years, which was far from enough to be considered a sufficient sacrifice.
In the evening, Wilbur, who did not find anything he wanted, returned to the Royal Hall of Herb in disappointment.
He could hear Leonard and the women snoring from inside the room and he thought in resignation, "Did they not need to eat at all?" With no other options, he could only wait.
At eight, a beautiful woman stepped in and greeted Wilbur with a smile. She then walked toward the door to Leonard's room and knocked. "Mister Thatcher, the auction is starting. We should get going." Sometime later, Leonard called out lazily, " Alright." Another 15 minutes passed, and Leonard stepped out of the room with two other women, all looking exhausted.
The two women were likely going to earn a fortune from this trip considering how generous Leonard was. They might just live the rest of their lives freely.
"This is the manager here, Catelyn, and this is my new friend, Wilbur. You can both get to know each other," Leonard said lazily.
Wilbur stood-and shook Catelyn's hand.
Catelyn was in her thirties and looked rather alluring. Wilbur was confused as to why Leonard would sleep around when he had so many beautiful women around him.
Just then, Leonard glanced at the time and realized that he was running late, so he told everyone to go downstairs, and Catelyn drove the group toward the highest building in the city.
Ten minutes later, they got out of the car and stepped into the building.
The entrance was guarded, and the guards immediately made way for Leonard upon seeing him.
They arrived at a spacious event hall where dozens of people were seen sitting inside, quietly conversing.
Leonard, Gatelyn, Wilbur, and the other two women stepped into the hall and sat down in the front row.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
