At night at the Williams family villa, in the main hall, three men were talking. Seated at the main Gerald Williams booth, "What's the news on Lucy?" Gerald asked with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "That girl really doesn't know what is good and what is bad, did you do what I asked?"
Harold Williams, who was standing in front of his father at the time, replied: «Father, all your accounts were frozen, even your private account, and we have been monitoring very closely so that you do not receive outside help, you must now have the money in cash she was carrying when she was evicted, and she shouldn't have much left. "
The expression on Gerald Williams 'face hardened:' If that's the case, why hasn't he come back yet asking to be forgiven? Are you sure she's not being helped by other people? What about that man she married? "
"Grandfather, investigate that man, and it turned out to be a smelly silk that has nowhere to fall dead, most likely Lucy offered him money to marry her." Roger Williams spoke, "I was also told by one of my informants that the Robinson family is exercising their dominance in the city so that this man has no chance of making money."
"Father, you know the personality of Lucy, that girl can take this to the last consequences, unless…" Harold Williams pretended to regret what he wanted to say, waiting for Gerald Williams' reaction.
Unless what? asked Gerald Williams, intrigued.
"Father, there is nothing more important to her than her studies at the university, she is only one year away from graduating, and she knows that her tuition is fully paid for by our family. But if we call the director of the university, we can withdraw that tuition, and when he sees the need to pay, he will have to come and ask for forgiveness »
"Do it," Gerald Williams said without even hesitating, "Now get out."
As he left the meeting room, Harold Williams's face changed drastically, to an expression of satisfaction.
Roger Williams hastened to walk beside his father, and after making sure that no one was listening, he asked him: «Father, I thought our goal was to get Lucy out of the family, why are you now giving ideas to grandfather, to that she come back? »
«Son, don't you know your cousin? Do you think she's going to give in to that? If I said that to your grandfather, it is because if Lucy does not graduate, in the end it will be less competitive for you, to inherit the family. Because, even though grandfather holds you in very high esteem, we cannot let her gain ground, it is better to guard against a possible mishap ».
...
After leaving the second day of training in the sand, and going through the hospital to visit his mother. Alex King went straight to the library near the university to look for some books ordered by Lucy, when he was about to enter, a voice called him from behind.
"Alex King, is that you?" After this woman had screamed, she used another very surprised tone. It was obvious that he knew Alex King.
Alex King looked at this woman in front of him, astonished. Her hair was short, and although she wasn't that pretty, something was endearing about her face.
She looked familiar, but he didn't remember her.
"Alex King, I helped him in the past by passing his scholarship and he pretends not to know me. You are really annoying! " said the round-faced woman.
In the past, Alex being low-income, he couldn't afford the Rever City college tuition, but thanks to his good grades, he got a student scholarship.
Alex King soon remembered. This woman was called Selena Wang, someone from the Wang Family in the capital. She was very active and virile, as usual I speak without much consideration, but she did not have a bad heart. Like Alex King, he also attends Rever City University.
She was part of the class monitors, and participated in the decisions of who obtained the university scholarships on behalf of the students.
"Ugh, it's that, Selena Wang, I'm sorry, my head felt dizzy right at this moment, and I hadn't recognized you ..." Alex felt sorry, it's true that he got his scholarship thanks to the vote of the students. of the class monitors.
Just as Alex King was thinking of an excuse to say goodbye, Selena Wang mysteriously spoke: "Alex King, do you know who is the most famous after you in all of Rever City? Oh, I shouldn't say the most famous, but the most hilarious. "
Selena Wang doesn't seem to care if her words hurt Alex King's feelings as she continued to talk happily.
She didn't expect Alex King to answer her, so instead she continued speaking: "This morning someone from the Williams family went to college, do you know what he went to college for?" Selena Wang was looking at Alex King in a satisfactory way, she wanted to know Alex King's reaction.
Alex King shook his head. Honestly, he had no impression that someone from the Williams family could do in college, but since Selena Wang was telling him about it, it must have something to do with him.
Selena saw Alex shake his head and said: «He came to collect Lucy Williams's tuition, I know this, because the principal called everyone who has to do with student scholarships, and he told us about the situation. said Lucy Williams cannot get any help to pay for her tuition.
Everyone in Rever City knows that this is all because she is married to you, and that her family wants her to divorce you as soon as possible.
Lucy Williams is a very good student, and she will most likely be among the first in her class, but if she cannot continue her studies, all her efforts will be in vain.
Alex King, if you really care about her, why don't you get a divorce?
Thinking of this, Alex King was stunned. Seeing Alex King's status, Selena Wang thought he was reluctant to divorce Lucy Williams. He added hastily, "Alex King, even though Lucy Williams is gorgeous, she's from the Williams Family, And you, well, you don't belong to her status, so…"
Of course, Alex King understood what Selena Wang meant and smiled indifferently before saying, "Only she can say the day our marriage ends."
Selena Wang rolled her eyes, but she kept talking: "If you say this, Lucy Williams is going to get hurt. Do you know what will happen if you don't pay the tuition money by the end of this month? She is going to be expelled.
Alex King was surprised, it was true that the university could expel those who did not pay their tuition, but this did not happen in practice, since the University was flexible on that subject, and gave students the opportunity to finance their debt.
The change in the attitude of the university has to be a requirement of the Williams family towards the university.
"Can you tell me how much his debt is in college?" Asked Alex.
Selena was shocked and thought, "Maybe Alex King wanted to pay for Lucy Williams's tuition," but that thought only lasted a second, How could Alex King pay for Lucy Williams, when he couldn't even pay for his own tuition.
"She is currently in debt for the year she is in, which would be a total of $ 20,000. Why? Are you going to pay for it? » After asking Selena regretted, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that."
On the other hand, Alex King just thought that this Selena Wang was very immature; spill the beans without considering the impact of your words. Fortunately now, he didn't really feel anything because he wasn't poor. Even though you didn't have cash now, as long as you wait the year to go for the trust term to expire, you won't have money problems anymore.
Don't worry, I can get the money. Alex said nonchalantly.
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, but I think I may need your help, I don't want them to find out that the money comes from me, because that would bring more problems."
