Chapter 144 Fearing His Wrath
It had been a lie to get her to study, but now, his granddaughter was revealing the lie to Emrys.
Franklin was terrified that Emrys would be livid.
He desperately wished to seal Charlotte’s mouth, but alas, it was too late.
All he could do was cautiously turn to Emrys, praying that the latter would not be furious with him.
However, Emrys was a magnanimous person. He knew that Franklin was only trying to get Charlotte to
study, so he said with a smile, “Sure. Once you’re enrolled in Snowywoods University, I’ll court you.”
“Sure!”
Thrilled, Charlotte darted over to wrap her arms around Emrys‘ neck and place a k*ss on his cheek.
Franklin, Thomas, Lucas, and Emrys were speechless at that.
Franklin then sheepishly chuckled and said, “Um, Mr. Lund, are you serious about it?”
It seemed like Franklin was even more keen on the idea than Charlotte.
Is this a promise from the Empyrean Lord? I’m sure he won’t go back on his promise, right? His
integrity will be at stake.
Franklin was so nervous he almost seemed like a newlywed man on his honeymoon.
Emrys glanced at the elderly man, thinking, You’re good at pushing your luck, aren’t you? I’m trying my
best to help cover up for your lie, but you’re just trying to get more from me. Don’t you know what your
granddaughter is like?
She only got an eight on her mathematics test. Do you really think I didn’t see the cram school test she
threw in a corner?
Nevertheless, Emrys nodded solemnly and said, “Of course. I’ve always been a man of my word.”
“Okay.”
Franklin nearly leaped into the air in excitement like his granddaughter, but he remembered about his
fragile bones at the very last minute, so he quickly dismissed the idea.
Still, his cheeks flushed.
Right then, Charlotte enthusiastically said, “Mr. Lund, it’s my birthday today, so can you use your big
rod to let me have the time of my life? Just this one time! From tomorrow onward, I’m going to focus on
my studies, and I’ll even throw my phone out of the window!”
Upon hearing her words, the Sunderlands narrowed their eyes.
His big rod to let her have the time of her life? This sounds way too suggestive.

Chapter 144 Fearing His Wrath
Nevertheless, they soon realized that the rod Charlotte was talking about was Emrys‘ vehicle–his
bicycle.
When Emrys saw the miserable look on Charlotte’s face, he patted his chest and said, “Sure thing. I’ll
let you have the time of your life today.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Soon after, the girl’s lovely giggles filled the air of Jadeborough’s road.
Upon seeing them, several bikers exclaimed in disbelief before revving up their motorcycles to rush
over and find out who had accomplished such swift cycling.
However, their progress was abruptly halted by a traffic police officer. In an act of protest, they voiced
their dissatisfaction. “There’s a cyclist ahead exceeding the speed limit, so why haven’t you
apprehended them? Why are you targeting us instead?”
A speeding cyclist?
The righteous police officer smacked the young biker on the head and fumed. “Do you think bicycles
run on fuel? How can a cyclist be speeding? You might as well say that the cyclist was flying!”
After a while of thrill–seeking, Emrys sent Charlotte back to the Sunderland residence.
When they were bidding farewell to each other, the girl got on her tiptoes to k*ss Emrys again.
This time, she k*ssed his lips, and the sweet taste of her lips lingered.
Emrys was stunned.
Oh sh*t! My first k*ss!
Despite that, he could only wryly laugh in response.
Am I a womanizer? I’ve won over her heart without even realizing it.
Still, Emrys felt that his sacrifice was worth it if it meant that Charlotte would be able to concentrate on
her studies.
In hindsight, I should have requested Charlotte to introduce me to more of her attractive classmates. I’ll
provide them with a goal to strive for, and I’ll play a role in their success when they ultimately gain
admission to Chanaea’s prestigious universities.
It seemed like the Empyrean Lord was working hard to cultivate the potential of Chanaea’s citizens.
