Chapter 53 I changed my course, Grandfather
I changed my course, Grandfather Before Jeff could process what happened, Tonia collapsed into his arms. He stared at the beautiful face he was obsessed with until months ago.
He looked around, hoping he could find someone she came with.
"What's happening?" Jamie, who had just come from the bathroom, inquired. "Who is she? Isn't she your...
ex-girlfriend?" "Hmm," Jeff answered. "I'm looking if she came with someone, she's drunk." As he spoke, his eyes fell on Edward, who was having a conversation with a man.
"Jamie, can you please help me call that guy over there?" He asked. ""He's my former brother, Edward." "Oh, so they came together. They are so shameless" Jamie rolled her eyes before walking away to inform Edward.
Edward was surprised when he saw the young miss of the Scavo family. The last time he saw her was at the basketball tournament when she came to cheer the loser up.
"Your girlfriend is drunk and is clinging to someone's partner" Jamie didn't bother to say 'hi'. She pointed to Jeff who smirked slightly at Edward.
Reluctantly and angry, Edward went to meet Jeff.
Edward said, "I did not know you could come to a place like this," while assisting Tonia in standing up. "The farm fits you better but anyway, thank you for helping my girlfriend." "Just warn her not to go around kissing other people" Jeff answered with indifference. "I will let it go though, others might not." The line of Edward's mouth tightened into a fraction as he glared at Jeff.
Without saying a word, he turned to leave.
"You must be forgetting something Edward" Jeff called before Edward could move three steps. "You must fulfill a wish I have for you, or have you forgotten?" Edward gave a hesitant response.
"What do you want? Never ask to take
anything belonging to the Hemsworth family." "I have not really thought about what I want," jeered Jeff, "and congrats on breaking Elias Malfoy's record." "I will be waiting for your wish then, brother. Pray to enjoy a good school life" Edward uttered, walking away before Jeff could say a word.
Jeff got up to go as well, but Jamie's words stopped him.
"Will you be appearing on Fred Swinton's show?" She asked suddenly, clutching her bag tightly. "I'm just asking since it's possible that Emily is joining the show too. I just..." ''T have not given it much thought," Jeff replied. "I will give it some thought later, but it is possible we resume
soon." Jamie smiled, "Oh right. Let's go. And please visit Grandpa soon; I think it will cheer him up." "Alright." With the crazy four that Professor Paul had introduced to him, Jeff was frantically playing a video game. He has been losing steadily for the past three hours that he has been playing.
His phone chimed at the moment. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
When he realized it was Liam, he purposefully turned off the game without telling anyone.
Liam sent a message with a video attached. !
NE Jeff frowned as he watched the video Liam had sent him. The video showed a masked person using acupuncture to save an Old Man, and Jeff knew right away that this was the same scene from two days ago.
It was him. How did Liam have this video? He rapidly typed a response to Liam.
Jeff: Yes, that's me! How did you get this video? Liam: I happened to stumble upon it online. Is this some kind of secret or hidden talent of yours? You looked like an expert! And I think the video is trending! Jeff: It's a long story. Let's talk about it later. Thanks for sharing the video, though.
Before Jeff could dwell on the video further, a knock on his door interrupted his thoughts. He furrowed his brow in confusion. "Come in." Chris entered with a beaming expression. "Young Master Jeff, your grandfather is here to see you." Jeff's eyes widened in surprise. He hadn't seen Old Master Malfoy after the meal. Jeff made his way to the living room.
There, sitting on one of the couches, was his Grandfather.
Old Master Malfoy's face lit up with joy upon seeing Jeff. His wrinkled features softened, and he extended his arms for a warm embrace. Jeff reciprocated, returning the hug.
"Grandfather, it's so good tq see you. I
wasn't expecting you." Old Master Malfoy answered, "How have you been?" 5 Jeff smiled, "I've been well, Grandfather. Just busy with my studies and some extraordinary experiences." "Congratulations on acing the admission test. I'm so proud of you" 0ld Master Malfoy said with sincerity.
"I wish I could just tell the world that you are my grandson." Jeff smiled. "It doesn't matter. I'm still your grandson whether the world knows or not." Old Master Malfoy's curiosity was piqued. Particularly after receiving perfect scores in two separate external exams, he had been captivated by Jeff's
extraordinary abilities.
Old Master Malfoy: In relation to your studies, how are things going at All Stars University? Are you still pursuing Modern medicine under Professor Sean? Jeff hesitated for a moment, pondering his recent encounters and self- discovery. This was the ideal chance to tell his grandfather about his choice.
"Grandfather, I have actually decided on something. I've decided to change my course of study." 0ld Master Malfoy's eyes widened in surprise. ""Change your course? To what, may I ask?" Jeff took a deep breath, his gaze steady as he spoke his truth.
"I've decided to study Traditional medicine instead. It's something I'm kinda passionate about." Shock and disbelief registered on Old Master Malfoy's face. The Traditional Medicine Department had been neglected and overlooked for years, lacking students and resources.
Changing to this field would be seen as an unconventional and risky move.
"But the Traditional medicine department isn't as renowned or advanced as the Modern medicine department. It's a path less traveled." Jeff met his Grandfather's gaze, a fire burning within his eyes. "I understand the challenges, Grandfather, but I have a deep trust that Traditional medicine is what I want."
The Old Man was utterly shocked but for some reason, he couldn't tell Jeff to change his mind. - "Don't worry. I will definitely try my best" Jeff answered and of course, he didn't fail to notice the fear and shock that the Old Man's eyes contained.
There's definitely something more to her Mother's disappearance and his grandfather's fear.
