Chapter 514
Halsey was stunned, her eyes wide with shock as she stared at Cyril.
“Are you serious?”
Cyril smiled lightly. “Of course I am. But like I said, you need to ask him if he’s willing. Maybe he doesn’t want to be your tutor, or maybe he doesn’t want to manage the company.”
Halsey frowned, confused. “What are you really trying to say?”
Cyril sighed softly. “Maybe Dwight’s path in life is one of constant risk–always on the edge, unable to settle down. He might not be able to offer you the kind of stable future you’re looking for.”
Cyril had personally recruited Dwight years ago, but once Dwight entered college, he began skipping classes. Cyril didn’t want such a promising young man to waste his potential, so he had tried reaching out to him privately several times.
With his connections and resources, Cyril could have
was smart; he could easily make a name for himself Pe Dwight enter academia or the business world. Dwight
Yet, Dwight had refused every time. That was when Cyril realized Dwight had chosen a different life for himself. Meanwhile, Halsey was the Lincoln family’s beloved daughter, their jewel. She had been pampered her entire life. She and Dwight simply weren’t a good match.
Halsey couldn’t understand what Cyril was trying to say. “Dad, just don’t stop me from being with Dwight. I’m serious about him.”
Cyril sighed deeply, falling silent. “What about Gilbert?”
Halsey’s face hardened. “Why are you bringing up that guy? He’s not into me. He’s still all over Sienna!”
Cyril chuckled lightly but didn’t respond. Perhaps Gilbert hadn’t liked Halsey before, but who was to say that hadn’t changed?
Halsey linked her arm through Cyril’s.
“I know you’re just looking out for me, but I have my own path to follow. Right now, I have feelings for Dwight, and I just want to be with him.”
Cyril reached out and gently tapped her on the head. “Let’s wait until Dwight decides he wants to be with you.”
Halsey paused, her face falling as she realized the truth. They were over here talking about it, but they had no idea how Dwight felt.
Halsey pulled out her phone and opened WhatsApp, quickly typing a message. [Did you get home yet?]
At that moment, Dwight was already on the road, riding his motorcycle. When his phone buzzed, he pulled it out and saw Halsey’s message.
She sent another one. [Don’t go too fast, okay? Be safe.]
Dwight smirked slightly but didn’t respond.
Ding!
Another message from Halsey popped up.
[Are you into me?

[If you don’t reply, I’ll just take it as a yes!
Let’s be together.
[I want to be your girlfriend.]
Halsey sent several messages, her bold and passionate confession pouring out. She wanted to be with him.
But Dwight didn’t respond to any of them. As he maneuvered his motorcycle through the neon–lit streets, he looked up at the luxurious car ahead.
He knew Cyril and Halsey were in that car–the license plate belonged to the Lincoln family.
Dwight had been following them since he left the hospital, railing behind all the way. He knew Halsey was just ahead.
She asked him if he was into her–of course he was. How could he not be?
She was bright, innocent, and passionate. Even though he had resisted her closeness, she had shone into his life like a warm little sun.
His mother and sister both adored her.
What was there not to love about a beautiful, charming young lady from a rich family?
Still, he didn’t know what he could offer her in return.
He felt like…he didn’t deserve her.
