When lan noticed that, he sent a photo of the name list gloomily. Even through the phone, his furyand displeasure were glaringly obvious.

Susan was at a loss for words.

How should I explain this? Since that student council secretary specially approached me, I can'tpossibly refuse. What happened between Yasmin and me hasn't been publicly revealed yet.

When Susan read the message on the screen, she could already imagine lan's furious expression.Not knowing how to reply to him, she sent a few words back.

Susan: The school recommended her.

lan: So what?

Susan: lan, no one know about our conflict yet. If you contact the school and force her to withdrawfrom the competition, she might see me in a bad light again.

Susan's last sentence had a pleading note.

Yeah! That's what I'm the most afraid of. I can already feel that Yasmin's state of mind has changeddrastically. Sometimes, I'm even terrified by her. At the Neal residence the other time, sheapproached Timothy directly!

Susan just hoped that everything would become peaceful again.

lan read the message in the building. Although there was still some lingering anger within him, hecould sense her pleading tone. Hence, he did not say anything else.

At that moment, Kurt arrived.

“Kurt, I want you to keep an eye on someone.”

“Who?”

Kurt was a bit surprised. From his impression, it was rare for lan, who had a very calm and rationalpersonality, to want to keep an eye on someone so warily.

He picked up the name list.

“Yasmin Snow?”

“Yeah, she's Duncan's elder sister. After realizing that Susan and Timothy were from the Limmerfamily, she has been acting shady in the dark. She's already responsible for someone's death.” landid not hide anything from Kurt.

When Kurt heard that, he was in disbelief.

So it's her! Is this Uncle Sebastian's true objective in asking me to come here? Does he want me tobait all these people?

The intelligent man immediately understood.

Nodding, he memorized Yasmin's name and face. Soon, he left.

By the time night fell, the few of them had returned to the apartment. However, Vivian soon noticedthat Kurt had not come back yet.

"Where's Kurt? Why hasn't he returned?”

“I think he's still dealing with the security system. Hey, you're too much. Why aren't you showingconcern for me? I didn't even manage to take a sip of water after coming back,” complained Matteowhile answering her question. He had just returned to the apartment as well.

Vivian blushed.

Just when she was about to pour some water for Matteo, she spotted a pair of tiny hands. Natalieplaced a cup of water in front of Matteo before turning around and dashing away.

“Huh? Nat?"

"Wow! It's Nat! You love me the most, don't you? Come here and let me give you a hug!”

Natalie had already hidden behind lan. When Matteo saw her, he quickly beckoned her to comeover. However, she was unwilling to do that.

Grabbing lan's shirt, she poked her head out and snuck a peek at Matteo carefully before hidingagain.

“Hahaha!”

Matteo was taken with how adorable she was. His heart softened as he stood up from the chair andwalked over, wanting to carry Nat over.

“No! I don't want him to carry me! lan, save me!” screamed Natalie before snuggling into lan's arms,as if Matteo was a beast.

This made Matteo unhappy.

He stared at Natalie gloomily. “This is so weird. Do I look very scary? Why is she so scared of me?”“You don't look scary. It's just that your actions are! Nat is still a child. How can you be so violent? Ifyou want to have a good relationship with her, you need to be gentle and coax her,” analyzedVivian.

When Matteo heard that, he slapped his forehead in realization and quickly took out somethingfrom his pocket.

“Come here, Nat. Look at what this is! If you come here, I'll let you play with it.”

Still clinging to lan, Natalie glanced at him.

What's that? Is that a toy?

In the end, Natalie allowed Matteo, who was as tall as a skyscraper to her, to carry her. She sat onhis lap and started playing with a robot he had brought from the building.

Time passed quickly. Soon, it was time for the building's opening. Everyone was done with theirpreparations as well. The media reporters who had heard about it quickly rushed over.

“Even the reporters are here. Seems like today's event will be big.” When lan received the news, hespecially summoned Kurt over to his room and told him that.

A calm expression hung on Kurt's face.

Actually, he wanted to ask lan something. The main event for today is the project he's in charge of.Why is he constantly thinking about that issue? What is he really focusing on?q
