Second Chances

Erza left Charon Military School on the same day without even completing the procedures for leaving school, 

Lennon was furious. He tried his best to find Jerome through his connections to retain Erza’s spot in school, but ferome said that in Charon Military School, a student’s will was still the priority. 

Jerome knew about the Burnson family’s situation. Even though he couldn’t bear to part with Erza since Erza’s ambitions weren’t here, they should just let it go 

Lane got drenched in the rain with Erza that day and caught a slight cold. 

During lunch. Emma saw Lane sneezing non–stop. 

Lane was afraid of affecting Emma. “Miss Wilson, I think I caught a cold. I’ll sit at the table next to you. I don’t want to infect 

you 

There were no empty seats around Emma and Lane. At noon, the cafeteria seats were mostly taken. There were often people lining up to eat. Emma pushed Lane back into her seat. “Sit down and ear. It’s fine. 

“Thanks” Lane said gratefully. She couldn’t taste the food, but still had to replenish her energy 

Emma then remembered that Lane’s phone was spoiled and she did not buy a new one. 

Coincidentally, there was a new Apple phone model out. If Lane waited for the school to reimburse her, she would have to wait until next month. Emma ate a few mouthfuls of food and prepared to call Levi later to buy a new phone for Lane. 

After they finished eating, they walked toward their classes. Lane’s class was nearer to the corridor, so she arrived first every 

time. 

Lane said, “Oh, right, Miss Wilson, I have a military theory question that I don’t know how to do…” 

Lane’s physical fitness was not bad. Cultural classes were usually more strenuous for her. Charon Military School had theoretical classes that were generally very difficult 

Emma raised her eyebrows. “Which one? Let me take a look.” 

Lane knew that Emma was good at school and basically got full marks in every cultural class. She immediately beamed with joy and pulled her into the class 

Emma was usually a celebrity in school. When she entered Lane’s class, she attracted a lot of attention. 

Emma’s facial features under the brim of her cap were elegant. Her chin was sharp and her skin was glowing. Her lips naturally red. When she walked into the classroom, she gave off the aura of a beauty, 

swere 

“Wow. This girl is so pretty. Which class is she from?” someone asked. 

“Are you stupid? You don’t even know the goddess Emma?” another said. 

Lane’s classmates whispered among themselves. 

Lane’s seat was in the second row. She bent down and looked for a book on her desk. Suddenly, the box of a new white mobile phone fell out of the drawer. 

The sharp–eyed person behind Lane recognized it at a glance. “Wow, Lane. It’s the latest high–end folding phone” 

Lane was stunned and turned to look at Emma. 

Emma understood what Lane meant and shook her head. “I didn’t buy it.” 

This phone had just been released on the market and the price as easily over 2,00 owning it. Her previous phone was just an old second–hand phone she had bought in junior high. “Who bought it for me? dollars. Lane had never thought abou Lane thought. 

“Could it be Celia? She spoilt your phone, so it’s only right for her to compensate you now, someone remarked. 

Another said. “How is that possible? People like Celia would never truly repent. Besides, even if she were to compensate, no way she would compensate something so good. Celia’s own phone seemed to be an old model. She would not be willing to buy such an expensive phone for Lane…” 

As the students spoke, they looked enviously at the new phone in Lane’s hand. 

It was said that this was a new model with new colors and functions. Everyone was eyeing this model. Unfortunately, they either did not have the money to buy it or could not snatch it even if they could afford it. 

“Lane, hurry up and open it for everyone to see, a voice said. 

“Yeah. Take a look. Who did something nice without leaving a name?” another said. 

Lane was a little confused. She opened it. In addition to the warranty card, instructions, and charging cable, it was a white, simple, high–end smartphone. It was brand new. There were no scratches like the second–hand phone had from repairs. It was completely different from her previous phones. 

Lane’s ears turned slightly red. She had never used such an expensive thing before. It was such an exquisite and bright feeling. 

At that moment, Lane suddenly thought of someone–Erza. 

Emma started to feel uncomfortable at night. 

Before she fell asleep, she sneezed a few times. Her throat was dry and hot. After sleeping, she started to have a high fever. Emma’s condition had always been great. She rarely got sick. But once she fell sick, it would be very serious. 

A few years ago, when Emma was in her teens, whenever she fell ill, it would be very serious. The person who knew this the best was Justine. Therefore, every time Emma fell sick, Justine would take care of her for a few days. 

“Dummy…” Emma whispered. 

Rielle and the others leaned against Emma’s bed. 

It was late at night and they were originally asleep. They did not pealize Emma was sick until they were woken by her talking in her sleep. 

A roommate said, “What are we going to do? Miss Wilson’s illness looks pretty serious. Shall we take her to the infirmary?” 

Rielle shook her head. “The infirmary does not open until nine o’clock tomorrow.” 

Another said, “I heard that if a high fever doesn’t subside in time a person could go dumb… If that happens to Miss Wilson, it would be a pity given how smart she is? 

Everyone’s words made sense. The more Rielle thought about it the more worried she became. She immediately ran to Lane’s dormitory to look for her.

Lane also had insomnia today. She was still awake at nearly four o’clock in the morning. At this moment, she was sitting on the bed against the wall, holding the new phone and thinking. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

At this moment, Lane heard someone call her softly through the door. “Lane, come quickly. Miss Wilson is sick.” 

Lane immediately came back to her senses. “What’s going on? Let me take a look!” 

When Lane saw that Emma was indeed seriously ill, she did not hesitate at all. She took her new phone and walked to the corridor. She dialed Liam’s number from memory. “Hello? Mr. Hall… Miss Wilson seems to be sick.” 

Lane knew that if anything happened to Emma, the first person to come forward would definitely be Liam. If there was only one person in the world who would never let go of Emma’s hand and leave her alone, it would be Liam. Therefore, Lane contacted Liam without hesitation. 

Twenty minutes later, a black Bentley stopped outside the girls‘ dormitory. 

Liam was dressed in black and looked serious. He asked the dormitory manager downstairs, “Hello. May I ask which dormitory the freshman Emma Wilson lives in?” 

The dormitory manager downstairs glanced at Liam. Liam was in his thirties. He was too old to be Emma’s brother and too young to be her father. For a moment, she could not figure out his relationship with Emma. “Who are you to Emma?” 

Liam’s face darkened. “I am her family.” 

“Did you bring your identification?” the dormitory manager 

asked. 

Levi was a little anxious as he watched from the side. Liam was in a rush today and did not report to Jerome in advance. Furthermore, Emma was sick. They did not expect to be stopped by the dormitory manager downstairs. 

Levi took out his phone to call someone to resolve this matter. 

But at this moment, the aloof Liam took out a marriage certificate from the side pocke 

of his jacket. “Is this okay?
