Under Nina's stare, James stopped talking, turned around, and talked to Emma.

The helicopter flew back to Lexingport City and landed on the top floor of North Yard's main building.

The family doctor, who had been waiting for a long time, examined Emma from head to toe. She sustained no other injury except for a slight bruise.

Chester tugged on Nina's hand and asked, "Aunt Nina, how are the people in C City?"

Nina looked down at the child with a smile and touched his head. "I'm not sure about the details of the disaster, but your uncle has done everything he can."

Nina had always thought that Sam wanted to send Chester to college in B City in September for the future development of Shi family.

As it turned out, she was wrong.

It was Chester who wanted to take this path.

Chester looked at John and said, "Thank you, Uncle John."

"Okay. Never forget why you are doing this in the first place." This was John's only hope for Chester.

Lexingport City was a complicated place. John had seen many people who held high positions but didn't care about masses. He hoped that Chester would never be one of them.

Emma left North Yard not long

o contact my assistant for an interview."

John attached great importance to talent selection.

The boy looked stunned.

In the next moment, John strode toward Nina. Chester raised his head, and their eyes met.

"Uncle..." he murmured.

"Shh..." John placed his index finger against his lips.

Chester continued to read as if nothing had happened.

Nina was immersed in her book. She got a little distracted when another person sat down beside her, but she didn't look at the newcomer. She only reached out and pulled her books toward her section of the table to make room for the other person on their table.

John was taken aback.

Did that mean that Nina gave this seat to any random student who came over?

On the second day, when Nina arrived at the library to study, she saw a pile of professional books on management on the table. It looked like one of the seats were already occupied, but the person who brought the books was noticeably absent.

Nina told Chester, "Chester, don't be a dog in the manger like that guy. They can be pretty insufferable."

Lost in thought, Chester said nothing. 'Aunt Nina, you are talking about Uncle John!'
