“Chapter 19: Keeping a Grudge is Uncouth

Upon recalling that he had agreed to go to the headmaster’s office yesterday, Finn Lewis immediately turned and walked straight to the headmaster’s office. By the time Finn entered the headmaster’s office, Robert Green was already waiting there. Seeing Finn, Robert immediately greeted him with a smile, saying, “Ah, Finn, you’re here. Please have a seat.”

Finn was somewhat helpless. He was still not too accustomed to these pleasantries, Shrugging his shoulders, Finn asked, “What is it that you need, Headmaster Green?”

“It’s about yesterday’s incident. I’ve spoken with Director Thomp. Listen, Finn, we’re all in the same school. How about you sit down with Thomp and apologize to him? That way, this matter can be settled. What do you think?” Robert inquired tentatively.

Finn was taken aback before he sneered and said, “Headmaster Green, let’s be frank here. We both know what kind of person Robert Thomp is. Keeping such a person in F University is the real blemish on the school’s reputation, not students like me who insult teachers or even students like Cora Franklin. If he hadn’t done those things, I wouldn’t have had a reason to curse him.”

Robert felt a throbbing in his temples. When he brought up his suggestion, he knew Finn might be reluctant. Honestly, Robert wasn’t really expecting Finn to apologize to Robert Thomp. After all, even though Finn used to be poor, he is now worth over 300 billion Federal coins. Would he care about a department head? Apologize to him? Are you kidding? If Robert were in Finn’s shoes, he wouldn’t apologize either.

But that wasn’t Robert’s aim. If Finn was not willing, then Robert would try to talk Finn out of having any conflict with Robert Thomp, and thus minimize this matter until it was over.

If he could just get through one more year until Finn graduated, his life would be much easier. Don’t presume that having a god-like figure in your campus is something to be proud of. Yes, while it is impressive that a student has accumulated such an enormous fortune on campus, it represents a great deal of pressure for any teacher.

Given Finn’s current net worth, he could be indifferent to anything. To put it bluntly, if Finn wanted to stir up trouble, anything Robert said wouldn’t matter. Besides, as long as they aren’t breaking the law, nobody could do anything about it.

So Robert was under considerable pressure. Now that Robert Thomp and Finn had a falling out, Robert had to diffuse the situation. But Robert never expected that Finn, who declined to apologize, would be so blunt. He was so blunt that Robert didn’t even know how to retort.

“That’s all?” Seeing that Robert wasn’t saying anything, Finn asked directly.

“Err, my point is, we are all in the same school, and we will inevitably run into each other. If you don’t want to apologize, that’s fine. Thomp indeed went too far yesterday by not investigating before speaking. I’ll have Thomp apologize to you. Is that acceptable?” Robert mused, realizing he needed to change the direction of the situation.

Finn laughed lightly, stood up, and said, “Headmaster Green, you might be a gentleman, but let me tell you, I don’t think I can accept Thomp’s apology. I know what you’re worried about, rest assured, I won’t embarrass him publicly.

I’ll just ignore him in the future. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going now.”

Robert considered himself a scientist. Last night, Finn asked Zero whether Robert had any issues. Zero gave a series of answers. Although Robert had some minor issues, they weren’t significant. He could still be considered a role model, but having been in this position for years, he had shed a lot of his scholarly demeanor, and had become more like a politician.

“Alright then, you can leave first.” Robert said, helplessly. If Finn wasn’t even willing to accept an apology, then that was that. As long as Finn didn’t embarrass Robert Thomp publicly, that would suffice.

Leaving the headmaster’s office, Finn headed directly to his dormitory. As for Robert Thomp… hehe.

When Finn returned to his dormitory, to his surprise, all the students were present. Seeing that Finn had returned, the five people in the room cheered, “Haha, Finn, you’re awesome. How can you be so cool? Hey, Mr. Finn, this is simply unbelievable! You’ve reached incredible heights!” Chubby Callum gave Finn a thumbs-up as he entered the room.

“Exactly! Finn, you truly are inscrutable. We didn’t see it coming. You’re really amazing. Now, tell us quickly, how did you get this money? Don’t give us the ‘rich second generation’ nonsense. We know your family better than anyone.

We’ve met your aunt and uncle. Tell us quickly.” The bespectacled man next to Chubby Callum couldn’t help but ask.

“Hmm, there’s not much to it. I just wrote a program and some software, sold it, and made some money. But I can’t tell you what exactly it is right now because it’s a trade secret. It’s not that I don’t want to tell you.” Finn explained.

He didn’t even know what Zero sold to A, but considering that A was willing to exchange 4.8% of their shares for it, it must be worth a lot more than the shares. Otherwise, A would not have done it, they aren’t fools.

“Come on, Mr. Finn, you’re not being honest. This is not a ‘little money’. Can you stop being so modest? Anyways, remember to treat us! And last time you took those three out and didn’t invite the two of us.” Another chubby guy said quickly.

“Sure, sure, don’t worry. I will definitely treat you all. You guys can choose the place. But I have some things to take care of recently. Once I finish, I will definitely treat you all. Do whatever you want. Can’t say I’m not generous.” Finn patted his chest confidently.

“That sounds fair enough. But, Mr. Finn, will you start a company or something? Your brothers here are counting on your salvation.” Chubby Callum remarked.

“I don’t have any plans right now. But if I do start a company, don’t worry, I won’t forget you guys.” Finn replied, smiling.

After questioning Finn, everyone quieted down. Finn packed up a few belongings before leaving the dormitory. For now, he wasn’t quite suited to live in the dormitory. He still had some things to ask Zero..
