Murphy had been prepared and dished out the explanation he had already come up with.
“You have no idea, Mr. Zephyr. That kid doesn’t just not match the age, but his results are forged as well. Hah, it’s
with consideration of his pride that his admission is canceled with the reason of age. After all, it’d sound worse
saying that his results are forged!”
“Weren’t there supervising teachers when he took the tests?”
“There were, but—”
“But you insist on imposing the blame on him,” said Zephyr with emphasis. “So whatever he does is wrong!”
The reaction was exactly what Murphy was expecting. He smiled lightly, hoping that Zephyr’s reaction could be
bigger. This way, he could take the chance of recovering Carter’s admission to bring up the marriage between the
Tanners and the Hamertons.
Although he did not know what Carter’s relationship was with Zephyr, he must be someone important to the latter

Murphy straightened up and looked triumphant.
Zephyr spoke clearly with a cold gaze, “Mr. Tanner, I’ve asked you here today truly because I need your help with
Carter’s case. After all, he’s an excellent student who’ll contribute to the country in the future.”
“Yes,” Murphy replied with a grin. “Absolutely!”
“So you’ll help with this?”
“There are ways, but…” Murphy looked thoughtful. “Who’s this Carter Irwin to you, Mr. Zephyr?”
Zephyr’s hand that had been toying with his lighter paused. He smirked without the smile reaching his eyes. He
knew that Murphy would ask this and had also been waiting for it!
Murphy would definitely probe his relationship with Carter and then contemplate before he made a decision that
would benefit him the most.
“Carter Irwin doesn’t have any relationship with me.” Zephyr’s expression was indifferent, but his eyes seemed to
say otherwise.
Murphy froze.
“It’s a favor asked of me too.” Zephyr pretended to be secretive. “Mr. Irwin has a significant background, but he’s
usually low-profile, and his family forbids him from revealing his identity, so he said nothing.
“But that doesn’t mean he’s a target to be bullied!”
Murphy’s heart began to drum as his brain worked quickly.
“Mr. Tanner, think about it.” Zephyr chuckled. “If he was really related to me, would I have to step up and do this? I
have subordinates waiting to do this for me!”
Murphy jolted as realization dawned on him.
Zephyr was right. Who was he? Who in the whole Centrolis could ask for his favor?
Did Carter have a military background!?
Zephyr smiled and got up at the right time, patting Murphy on his shoulder.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mr. Tanner, you have frequent encounters with this, so you must be more aware than me about the pros and cons
involved… I hope you don’t make a big mistake! Hah, if Mr. Irwin’s family looks into this, I’m afraid the Hamertons
will also be implicated!”
“Mr. Zephyr…” Murphy stared at him in a daze. “Are you… telling the truth?”
Zephyr did not answer his question but left him a meaningful smile.
Murphy wiped his sweat. He could not totally believe what Zephyr said, but he could not completely disregard it
either. Nelly had just asked him to cancel Carter’s admission with an excuse so Zephyr would beg her and realize
how great she was. He knew nothing aside from this!
He could not call Nelly for a direct confrontation right now…
If what Zephyr said was true, Nelly would have dug him his grave!
Zephyr asked in a deep tone, “Mr. Tanner, have you made up your mind?”
Murphy calmed himself down for the moment. Even though he was doubtful, he thought it was more important for
him to keep his place on the board of trustees!
Moreover, he did not have to offend Zephyr just for his niece.
If Carter Irwin had a military background, he would be making a huge mistake!
