A week passed in the blink of an eye. Eli was overjoyed to find Zeke reaping what he sowed.
She didn't regret leaving her self-study aside and spending extra time in jotting down notes and tips on his study materials for the past days. The young heir, on the other hand, seemed to have been burning the midnight oil while she did so. The rooftop strategy was a great success, either. Both were able to see the fruit of their hard work when news came that he passed the entrance exam with flying colours, consequently pleasing the Chairman as well.
"Congratulations, Ezekiel! I knew you can do it!" Eli enthused in evident elation.
"Thank you! I couldn't have done it without you," Zeke replied while smiling sheepishly.
"That's right, you couldn't have done it," Hal commented with a mocking look.
"What do you mean?" the young heir grumbled, narrowing his eyes at him.
With that, the boys then started to have an intense staring contest.
