“Headmaster, Mr. Wood is here to see you,” the Headmaster’s assistant entered from the door and said to Robert Green.

Hearing this, Robert Green instantly felt a headache coming on. He obviously knew why Mr. Wood was here, “Haven’t I told you, if he comes, just say I’m resting and we can discuss matters during the meeting?” He really didn’t want to see Mr. Wood alone.

“But, he came with a foreigner, saying it was about Finn Lewis. And, that foreigner is a lawyer from the North Federation, ” the Headmaster’s assistant explained hurriedly.

“What?!” Robert Green was stunned for a moment, then lifted his head and said, “You mean Mr. Wood brought a lawyer from the North Federation over regarding Finn Lewis’s matter?” Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m nov𝒆lb(i)n.c(o)m

“Yes, I specifically asked that foreigner in Federation Language, he confirmed this, and he also said, Finn Lewis is his employer,” the Headmaster’s assistant nodded in affirmation.

“Let them in,” Robert Green was no fool, regardless of who this sudden foreigner was, there seemed to be more going on with this matter. Soon, Mr. Wood and Luca Hall entered from outside the office. Initially, Robert Green wondered if Mr. Wood had simply hired a random foreigner to deceive him. After all, in a big international city like Celeston City, it’s not hard to find a foreigner.

However, once he saw the foreigner, Robert Green knew this man was certainly not here to fool anyone. The aura he carried and his attire made it clear. This foreign man wore an authentic Armani suit, that much Robert Green could tell. He himself liked this brand, even though he rarely dressed in it.

Furthermore, the rest of his clothing was well chosen. “Mr. Wood, who is this?” Robert Green stood from his position as the two men entered.

“Headmaster Green, my name is Luca Hall and I’m here to express my strong protest for the disrespect shown to my employer! Although I’m not a lavvyer of the Flame Nation, I am well-versed in Flame Nation law, and I hold a lawyer’s license in Flame Nation!” Luca Hall cut in before Mr. Wood could speak, expressing his point righteously.

Hearing Luca Hall’s unaccented Mandarin, Robert Green and Mr. Wood were taken aback. Mr. Wood had assumed Luca Hall didn’t speak the language of the Flame Nation, but now, God, if you closed your eyes, you wouldn’t be able to tell this was spoken by a foreigner.

“Mr. Hall, I think there seems to be a bit of a misunderstanding between us,” Robert Green quickly replied. This matter couldn’t be taken lightly, especially as the person standing in front of him was a bona fide foreigner. Even though the people of Flame Nation didn’t place as much importance on foreigners as they had twenty or thirty years ago, dealing with diplomacy wasn’t a trivial matter.

“No, Headmaster Green, there is no misunderstanding. I learned about the whole thing from Mr. Wood. Why are you expelling my employer? Especially without fully investigating the truth of the situation?” Luca Hall asked in a serious tone.

Robert Green angrily glanced at Mr. Wood. Not everything needed to be talked about in the presence of a foreigner. Mr. Wood shrugged his shoulders and said: “Headmaster Green, it’s not my fault. Mr. Hall is here to deal with Finn Lewis’s issue, so I had to tell him what had happened.”

Upon hearing this, Robert Green felt a headache coming on. He looked at Luca Hall and said, “Mr. Hall, alright, now that you know what’s happened, can you tell me if there’s something wrong with the process?”

“Certainly. Aren’t you all suspecting that my employer’s money is illegally obtained? I’ll have you know, the money owned by my employer not only isn’t illegal but also earned through his technical skills. The crucial point is even if he were to splash out two hundred million Flame Nation coins on people, I believe my employer wouldn’t so much as frown,” Hall said with a solemn face.

“Mr. Hall, aren’t you exaggerating a little bit? He comes from an ordinary family. Fine, even if his money is legally earned, where’s he going to find two hundred million Flame Nation coins?” Robert Green couldn’t help but retort.

Luca Hall stared at Robert Green and couldn’t help but laugh. (You don’t believe it? Damn it, I didn’t believe it initially either, but this is what actually happened!). He could still remember his astonishment when he first heard the news. Now it was time for these people to taste the same sense of disbelief.

“Mr. Green, although I don’t know what the situation was before, since I

started working here, although I wouldn’t dare say my employer’s family is the richest in Flame Nation, they certainly are among the top ten wealthiest,” Luca Hall

“Mr. Hall, you aren’t making a joke, are you?” Robert Green and Mr. Wood gazed at each other, their mouths wide open in astonishment. After a long while, Robert Green couldn’t help but retort.

“I didn’t fly thousands of miles to Flame Nation to tell you a joke, Mr. Green,” Luca Hall responded unhesitatingly.

“Alright, no matter what you say, Mr. Hall. Do you have any proof? Without proof, we simply can’t believe you. This matter is too incredible,” Robert Green refrained from losing his temper and cursing. (Isn’t this a goddam joke? Among the top ten wealthiest in Flame Nation? Not sure how much money the top ten richest people of Flame Nation should have, but it should be at least a billion Flame Nation coins, right? And him? A student from a peasant family who worked outside for two years?)

“If both of you are willing to sign this document,” Luca Hall took out two confidentiality documents from his bag as if performing a magic trick, passing them to Mr. Wood and Robert Green.

Luca Hall was astonished by his own foresight. As this matter required strict confidentiality, before coming here, he had prepared many confidentiality agreements. After all, coming here meant he would have to disclose this information to some people, so these agreements were indispensable.

“Uh, what’s this?” Robert Green asked, looking at the document in his hand. It was full of Federation language, and was a professional legal Federation document, which Robert Green did not understand.

“This is a confidentiality agreement in Federation language, the Flame Nation language part is at the back. You two can take a look. If you can guarantee not to disclose this information, I can tell you the truth. Otherwise, you have no right to know. If you insist on expelling my client, that’s okay too. I believe

Celeston University wouldn’t mind admitting my client without exams,” Luca Hall expressed calmly.

Robert Green and Mr. Wood looked at each other, then turned to the back of the document written in Flame Nation language for a look. The terms of the agreement were perfect with no issues. They were extremely strict and stated that if any damage was caused by leaking related information, double compensation and appropriate legal responsibility would be required. Besides this, there was nothing else of note..
