Everyone turned to look person who spoke, their eyes instantly lighting up. With sharp eyebrows and handsome features, he stood in a sleek black suit that added an air of intelligence to his presence.

They thought, “This man is so attractive. He can easily rival any movie star.

“Mr. Hartley, what brings you here?” Levi sounded a little nervous.

Zane glanced at him but didn’t respond. Instead, he turned to Bianca, saying, “I didn’t expect you to take a picture of me, blur my face out, and pair it with such a provocative caption. Everyone knows about it now.

“Honestly, the quality of education here is a serious problem. It makes me wonder if this school is even worth investing in.”

His gaze shifted to Levi. “What do you think, Mr. Sharpe? Should I pull out my stake in this school?”

Levi’s heart sank, and he quickly said, “Trust me, Mr. Hartley, I’ll handle this matter properly.”

Hearing that, Zane stared back at Bianca. “You’ve invaded my privacy and severely damaged my and Elysia’s reputation. Well, just go home and wait for the lawyer’s letter.”

As soon as Bianca heard the last few words, her body trembled, and her legs gave out. She collapsed onto the floor, her entire body shaking with a mix of fear and panic.

She thought, ‘What should I do? Am I going to lose?‘

Bianca didn’t want to give up. Despite her overwhelming panic, she forced herself to think clearly: She told herself that she couldn’t give up here.

However, she didn’t know what to do.

She was suddenly drained of energy. Tears welled up in her eyes, and before she could stop them, they streamed down her cheeks. Silent sobs wracked her body, and crying seemed to be the only thing she could do.

She realized that she was on a downward spiral.

At that moment, Zane finally turned his attention back to Elysia. The cold, harsh aura around him had softened a little. “It’s okay,”

he said.

The warmth in his tone now was completely different from before. Everyone who had been holding their breath finally let it out.

They couldn’t help but envy Elysia for having two brothers like them watching over her.

Fabian didn’t want to talk to Zane. Instead, he turned to Levi and said, “Mr. Sharpe, Elysia has been through quite a shock. I’m taking her home. Do you agree?”

Levi said, “Sure, Mr. Evans. You can take her home. Once the investigation is over, I’ll let you know.” Then, r look Zane was giving him, he quickly added, “And Mr. Hartley, I’ll make sure to keep you updated as well.”

Fabian didn’t even spare Zane a glance. He said in a low voice, “Thank you, Mr. Sharpe.”

After saying that, he turned and led Elysia out of the room.

“I’ll leave now if there’s nothing else,” Zane said.

“Alright, Mr. Hartley. Take care,” Levi replied.

Chapter 304 The rest of the students thought, ‘Well, the fact that Mr. Sharpe treated these two men respectfully showed just how powerful they were. It seems that even without the Rosewood family as her support, Elysia has even stronger backing (458)

In the past, the Rosewood family was only superior to the average family in Sivro, and there were several families that were more powerful than them. However, things were different.

A collective breath of relief passed through the crowd. They thought, ‘It seems that we can’t mess with Elysia from now on. If we do, we might end up like Bianca!

When they reached the school gate, Fabian turned to Zane and said in a low voice, “Mr. Hartley, I know you’re busy, so you don’t have to stay with us. I’ll take Elysia home.”

“It’s okay. I’m not busy today,” Zane replied.

Elysia, overhearing their conversation, noticed the tension between the two. She gently tugged at Fabian’s sleeve and said in a soft voice, “You get into the car first. I just need to have a quick word with Zane.”

Fabian found it hard to refuse her. He reached up to rub her hair affectionately. “Fine, whatever you want.” His tone was a mix of helplessness and pure affection.

“Thanks, Fabian,” she said with a smile.

“You’re welcome,” Fabian said.

After saying that, Fabian turned around and got into the car. Elysia finally turned to Zane, giving him a soft smile. “Thank you, Zane. I’ll head back with Fabian.”

Zane nodded. “Sure. By the way, Grandpa is back and wants to see you.”

“Mr. Hartley?” Elysia was surprised.

Zane nodded. “Yeah.”

When Elysia returned from Jorlandia, she had intended to visit Vincent, but the latter was away attending an academic conference.

“Should I come to see him now?” Elysia asked.

“It’s fine. You can go see him next time.” Zane raised his hand, gently ruffling her hair. “Go back with your brother.”

“Alright,” Elysia said.

Only after Fabian left did Zane withdraw his gaze and turn to head toward his car. However, just as he was about to get in, he heard a familiar voice behind him. “Zane!”

Zane turned around, only to see Alice running toward him, leaning on the railing as she panted for breath.

“What are you doing here?” Zane asked.

At the sound of his question, Alice’s anger flared. “I’ve called you so many times, but you never picked up.”

“Have you?” Zane raised an eyebrow, about to reach for his phone when Barry quickly took a phone from his pocket and handed it to Zane with both hands. “Here you go, Mr. Hartley.”

Taking the phone, Zane unlocked it, only to find over twenty missed calls from the same person. “What’s wrong?”

Barry put on a look of innocence. “I didn’t do it on purpose, Mr. Hartley. You told me not to pick up any calls.” When Alice called earlier, Zane just tossed the phone to him and told him to hang up.

Chapter 304 Barry was feeling miserable at the time because of motion sickness, so he hadn’t even thought about it before he hung up the phone, 58 Alice looked aggrieved. “You can’t do this to me, Zane. I was just trying to update you on Elysia’s latest news, yet you hung up on me!”

Seeing that Zane didn’t say anything, Barry awkwardly said, “Err, it’s not Mr. Hartley’s fault. When you called, he was already on the way. He was too worried about Ms. Rosewood to...”

“Are you saying that his wife is more important than his niece?” Alice interrupted.

Barry didn’t know how to respond.

When Zane heard the word “wife“, his expression softened, and a smile spread across his face. “Yeah, she’s indeed important.”

The smile on Zane’s face was so obvious that Alice’s anger grew. “I don’t want to talk to you anymore.” She spun around and stomped off toward the teaching building.

She thought, ‘I knew he would come to support Elysia, so I rushed over to update him, but look what he did! He just left without even checking on his only niece! That hurts.

Barry watched as Alice stormed off. “Mr. Hartley, should I...”

“It’s fine, Just give her some time and she’ll be alright,” Zane said, dismissing the concern as he slid into the backseat of his Maybach. He turned to Barry who was still standing there and said, “Are you waiting for me to drive?”

“No, Mr. Hartley, I’ll be right there,” Barry stammered, quickly jumping into the driver’s seat.
