Chapter 1062: Chapter 1042: Outrage for a Beauty

"Alright, Grandma, you’d better head back!"

If she kept standing there, what if another admirer came along? If a handsome guy of a closer age showed up, she would definitely be willing. After all, her grandmother had been lonely for so many years; finding someone who could reach her heart wouldn’t be a bad thing!

Unfortunately, with such an age difference, it definitely wouldn’t reach her heart!

Danny Yates’s gaze had been fixed on Ruby Ross ever since he arrived, as if he was deeply attracted to her unique aura that seemed untouched by the mundane world yet was pleasantly plain. His heart, which had never been shaken before, suddenly tightened.

He had never believed in love at first sight. In his mind, what’s often called love at first sight is usually about looks, or what you might call lust at first sight. But what was happening to him today?

Just like those other Young Masters, he was experiencing lust at first sight. However, it was normal for a woman as beautiful and outstanding as she was to have a boyfriend. He found himself wanting to know more about the male lead in this story and even had the desire to steal her away.

"Chani, why do you call your cousin ’Grandma’?"

Uh?

She is my grandma!

"She really is my grandma. It’s just that Lucian didn’t believe my grandma could be so old and still look this young, so that’s why I said she was my cousin!"

Bella Gordon shrugged nonchalantly and said, "Uncle Danny, she truly is my grandma. You really shouldn’t fall for her!"

Uh?

But what if he insisted on falling for her?

This girl, when did she learn how to lie? A sixty-year-old woman not wearing makeup and still looking like this? He’d have to live several lifetimes to believe that.

So, in Rio Gordon’s eyes, Ruby Ross was Bella Gordon’s cousin, and as for which cousin, he’d have to find out himself: "Alright, it’s time for class. Hurry up and get in there!"

Going to university usually didn’t require being dropped off. Usually, Chani and her friends would go on their own, but today was different. Grandma happened to arrive, intending to become familiar with the school entrance, and they ran into Lucian’s uncle, causing quite the mix-up.

What Bella Gordon didn’t expect was that there wasn’t just one mix-up that day!

"Oh no, oh no, Chani, you need to come quick!"

Before she even entered the classroom, a senior student of the same age came running, shouting, "There’s big trouble, huge trouble!"

Frightened, Bella Gordon hadn’t even stepped into the classroom before she followed him: "What’s the big trouble? Is my brother fighting?"

Impossible, Rio had been completely focused on his research paper recently, hadn’t he?

Plus, with his temperament, it shouldn’t be a fight anyway. Either he ignored people or he fought them; what kind of scenario was it this time?

"No, no, it’s not your brother!"

"If it’s not my brother, then whose fight requires you to come get me to put out the fire?"

When it came to other people’s fights, she never got involved in such uninvited troubles. She always refused to bear them. What did it have to do with her anyway? Why call her?

"Your boyfriend came to our school to fight, who else am I supposed to call if not you?"

A fight at school can lead to expulsion, even those with strong backing would at least get a misconduct mark, right? But everyone strives for perfection, who wants a stain for no reason at all? If it can be prevented, it should be, so the moment it happened, they went straight to Chani Gordon.

"Boyfriend? When did I get a boyfriend?"

Chani Gordon suddenly couldn’t grasp the situation. When had she been categorized as someone with a boyfriend? She had been chasing a guy for so many years, and as of yesterday, things turned sour, and now she didn’t even have the chance to chase him anymore.

What boyfriend, my ass!

"Isn’t Owen Hayes your boyfriend?"

"Owen Hayes? He..." Chani Gordon was dumbstruck, "You’re saying he’s the one fighting right now?"

"About to fight. He just stormed into our class and said he wanted to challenge Willy Smith to a duel!" The person said, panting, as they walked Chani along, "He rambled about him trying to steal his woman, and something about a fair duel with Willy—Willy is a good student, he wouldn’t think of fighting!"

Chani Gordon: "..."

That statement really was... It’s certainly true that John is a good student, but doesn’t that make Owen Hayes one as well?

He’s a role model in the school too!!

But why on earth would he want to challenge John to a duel all of a sudden? Could it be...

Damn it, while speaking, Chani Gordon was already dialing Bella Gordon’s number, "Sis, look at the mess you’ve made. You said John was sending me flowers, now Owen Hayes has come to the school to challenge John to a duel. In a moment, when I get there, I’ll hand the phone to him. You better explain everything clearly to him and clear up any misunderstandings!"

Bianca Gordon was taken aback, she had anticipated that Owen would do something today, but this action truly startled her: "Can’t he do something more civilized, like threaten, instead of getting physical?"

She remembered that back when she used to talk nonsense, Brother Roy was best at threatening, all her suitors ran away with just a threat. She didn’t expect that nowadays people were so brash, resorting to fists without a word!

"How should I know? Why would he come to our school to challenge John to a duel out of nowhere, and now a duel is happening, do you think it could lead to trouble?"

Chani Gordon attended a noble school where everyone was civilized like young masters and princesses. Usually, at most, they’d resort to threats as Bella mentioned. Physical fighting was something Chani was witnessing for the first time, and it scared her.

"No worries, they won’t really fight. Relax, there are teachers at the school. They won’t let you go completely unchecked. Go on, it’ll be okay!" At the end, Bianca added, "Actually, having a man fight for you is pretty sweet, isn’t it?"

Bianca thought it was at least a comforting thought; now she was reassured that her precious little sister wasn’t hot-headed for no reason—the man had finally come to his senses!

When Chani Gordon arrived at the senior classroom entrance, many people had already gathered. Owen Hayes and Willy Smith were both there, and the two were similar in stature and temperament, both were handsome and gentle in appearance, lacking Rio Gordon’s indifference and Roy Thompson’s restraint and dominance from his military background.

"Owen Hayes, what are you trying to do!"

Owen Hayes was the instigator, so Chani instinctively shouted at him. The already angry man became even more irate when he heard her protective tone, combined with what she’d said last night, his temper flared.

"Get out of my way, this has nothing to do with you!"

"Why should I get out of the way? You are being unreasonable, coming to our school to fight. Why should I move aside!"

Chani Gordon, in a fit of anger, stretched out her hand in front of Willy Smith defensively. This protective gesture instantly darkened Owen Hayes’ face, "Chani Gordon, get out of my way, this has nothing to do with you!"
