Chapter 22
Gordon had ordered a few dishes for them to eat. He had ordered a salad, a plate of lasagne, and some
grilled chicken.
Soon, Gordon left after they filled their stomachs.
Carlisle realized his father was in somewhat of a daze. It seemed like his father was still worried about
his results.
Carlisle had another two papers in the afternoon.
Like before, Carlisle had finished the papers within an hour and left the exam hall with his hands in his
pockets.
He did not have to worry about anyone mocking his father since his father had already left.
The weather in the afternoon was great.
There were a few reporters from the Riverland TV Station. A reporter immediately dragged the cameraman toward Carlisle when they saw him come out.
“Hello. Are you the student who keeps finishing their papers within an hour?”
“You’re right. That’s me!” Carlisle said, feeling a little awkward.
It was just an exam. Why were there reporters here?
Too bad he had no interest in being an influencer. Otherwise, he could have become a great influencer
with the exposure.
“Can I conduct an interview with you?”
“Sure!”
“Did you focus on answering all the questions within the hour of your exam? Did you decide to give up and stop answering after spotting too many difficult questions?”
“I did answer all of them correctly. I handed my paper in early because those questions were relatively easy. So, I finished them quickly.
“I felt bored sitting in the exam hall, so I decided to leave and get some fresh air,” Carlisle said confidently,
“Can I ask you an unrelated question? Did you hurt your face due to your arrogance? Did someone beat. you up as they couldn’t stand it anymore?” the reporter asked with a smile as disdain flashed across their
eyes.
The reporter’s questions managed to cause all the surrounding parents to laugh. It was clear that the reporter was insulting Carlisle.
“The injuries on my face were due to a bike Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
incident this morning!” Carlisle answered calmly.
“Oh! That was careless of you. You should slow down and be careful the next time you ride your bike!”
“Thank you,” Carlisle said impassively.
“Were the questions for today’s exam tough for you?”
“It was easy. Why would I be able to finish within an hour if it was hard?” C
le said with a smile.
Since they believe he was faking it, he would persist till the end.
The reporter continued to ask, “Then, could you give me your number? I would like to continue our
Interview once the results are out!”
“Of course. I can give you my father’s number!”
It was still normal for kids his age to go without phones.
The reporter quickly scribbled down Carlisle’s number into a notebook.
The reporter wanted to continue their interview after the results were out to see how Carlisle would break down before the camera after receiving his results
Carlisle had just finished his interview when Lucy rushed toward him with Christine in tow.
There were a few men with document bags beside her. It looked like they were from the police station.
“Are you Carlisle Zahn?” One of the men asked with a smile.
“That’s me.”
The officer took a photo from his document bag and asked, “Do you recognize the man in the photo?”
It was the man he had fought with this morning.
“I don’t know him!”
“Do you really not know him? Or are you just pretending?” The officer questioned solemnly.
“I did fight with him this morning. Does that count as knowing him?” Carlisle asked calmly.
The officer narrowed his eyes. Why was he so calm?
Something was wrong with how calm he was.
The officer took a deep breath and said, “Could you please come with us to the station?”
Carlisle nodded. “Sure!”
Carlisle and Christine were brought to a police car. Lucy had also followed along.
After a series of questions, Carlisle explained everything that had happened in the morning.
The officer narrowed his eyes and said, “I have one final question. From what I know, you and Christine
aren’t close friends.
“The two of you are barely even friends. So why did you ride 18 miles just to meet her today?”
