Chapter 780 Boyle, Are You Interested In This Junior
Cherie was already done changing by the time Tyler ran upstairs with the electronic piano.
Verian almost bumped into Tyler the moment she got out of the room.
The instant Tyler noticed Cherie's mother, he immediately greeted her politely, "Greetings, Aunty Verian!"
Verian was actually really pleased with Tyler and she also knew that he was here for Jelly Bean.
"Jelly Bean is still in her room."
"Ah, alright. Thank you, Aunty Verian."
Tyler then entered the room with the electronic piano. He said, "Help me out a little, Jelly Bean. This custom made electronic piano is really heavy."
Cherie rushed over as the both of them set up the piano.
Tyler chuckled, "Give it a try."
Cherie sat down and started testing out the piano's pitch. It sounded amazingly well.
Tyler asked with a smug look, "What do you think? Not bad, right?"
Cherie randomly started playing the birthday song and it sounded incredibly well. The piano could go toe to toe with any expensive piano. Cherie said, "Not bad. Where'd you even get such an amazing piano?"
"Of course. Just look at who I am. I'm the little prince of the capital, okay?"
Cherie glared at him with a mocking gaze before intentionally sniffing the piano. She said, "Wow, this truly reeks of your despicable wealth, alright."
"Nonsense. Look, although I have plenty of connections and money in the capital, this custom made piano that I got for you just so happens to be money I've made from tirelessly working at a bar and not to mention, I've even skipped school just to work. If my father was to learn about this, he would've no doubt break my legs."
Tyler stared at the woman's beautiful, adorable tender little face beside him as he made his exaggerated statement before inching his handsome face closer to her and teased, "So Jelly Bean, judging from how much effort I've put into getting this gift for you, could you give me a kiss?"
Tyler mischievously tapped his right cheek before inching it closer to her.
However, Cherie immediately pushed his face away before saying, "Oh please, save your sob story. Just look at how many pursuers you have, Tyler. They could at least encircle half the circumference of the Earth just waiting to give you a kiss so why even bother to ask me for one anyway?"
"Oh, Jelly Bean, you're too ruthless now."
After Cherie was done trying out the piano, she got up and said, "Let's go and grab some cake downstairs."
While the duo were walking downstairs, Tyler reached out to casually hug Cherie's shoulder as he took a serious look at the woman's bright red luscious lips. He noticed something new.
"Whoa, you're wearing lipstick today? Not bad, Cherie. You finally know how to put on makeup now."
Cherie scoffed before flinging his arm away from her shoulder. She said, "Stop touching me so much. You know, if my dad notices, he will beat you to a pulp."
"What's the matter with you? You won't let me kiss or hug you. Truly, you're becoming increasingly unreasonable the older you get! Am I really still your best friend?"
Tyler then reached out to pull her long hair. Cherie turned around and said, "Dammit, Tyler! How old are you right now? Why are you still pulling girl's hair?"
"I just enjoy bullying you, okay. Anyway, when I'm finally in North City University, I won't have to keep visiting you by plane anymore. You know what, let's form a band when we're both in North City University. You can be the pianist and I can be the guitarist…"
However, before Tyler could Finish, Cherie was stunned as she asked, "What did you say? You applied to North City University?"
"Yeah, what's the matter? Am I not welcomed to study in the same university as you?"
Cherie was completely baffled by his statement as she said, "Well… I actually applied to Capital City University."
"What did you say?"
Tyler was completely speechless while he stared at her. After calming down, he felt very annoyed and speechless as he said, "Didn't you tell me that both Uncle Heaton and Aunty Verian could not bear for you to be too far from them? Oh Cherie, you did this on purpose didn't you? I applied to North City University from the capital and yet you on the other hand, actually applied to Capital City University from North City!"
"This is all a mere coincidence, you know. I also assumed that Uncle Carter will make you study in Capital City University and I wasn't doing this on purpose, okay."
Although the both of them did not end up in the same university, Tyler was glad when he noticed how sincere and genuine she was behaving and looked.
He reached out and tugged her soft loosely braided hair again as he said, "So, you meant to say that you really want to go to the same university as me?"
Cherie nodded without hesitation as she replied, "Well, of course. We made a promise when we were kids to study in the same university as each other back then anyway."
Tyler's gaze dimmed as he stared at the woman's beautiful and elegant little face and said, "It's all because of a single promise we made as a kid back then?"
'Boom.'
Beautiful and colorful fireworks erupted in the night sky above the Fudd family home's courtyard. It was truly a beautiful scene to behold.
Cherie's attention was immediately drawn to it as she pointed at the night sky and excitedly said, "Hurry up and look, Tyler!"
The woman was completely focused on the beautiful fireworks while she stood in the hallway. Tyler on the other hand was staring at the side of the woman's beautiful face while she was smiling with a sweet innocent smile. This was more beautiful than any fireworks out there to him.
The birthday party would begin soon.
Cherie had a party hat on while a huge group of family and friends wished her well. Heaton held onto his daughter's hand and began cutting the cake with her. She made a wish and blew the candle while the entire courtyard erupted into a series of cheers and applause.
After that, the adults began to mingle amongst themselves while the children had fun with each other.
Since she happened to be the most beloved granddaughter to Old Master Fudd ever since she was a little girl, even if Heaton and his wife did not want a lavish nine-layered cake, the old man insisted that they do. Therefore, the old man ordered someone to have a nine-layered cake specially baked for her. A sculpture of an adorable little princess playing the piano was placed on the top layer of the cake.
Cherie was beaming with joy when she was being surrounded by a group of people.
A few servants began gossiping amongst themselves nearby.
"Man, the 18th birthday for the daughter of the Fudd family truly is even more lavish than some weddings, alright."
"Yeah. I heard that the nine-layered cake for tonight costs ten thousand bucks. Man, if I was her, I don't think I can bring myself to eat it. Man, just look at those people. They're smashing cake on each other's faces."
"Such a waste. However, the guests that attend this birthday party are all extremely powerful people. Say, when can people like us be like them?"
Boyle was listening closely to their gossip but was uninterested in participating.
Hector, a classmate of Boyle's who came to work with him nudged Boyle with his elbow while pouring a row of wine.
"Have you ever thought about if we succeeded in our career that we'd be rich like them?"
Boyle was busy working while keeping his head lowered. He replied in a cold tone without even looking up, "No."
Hector replied, "So, have you really never thought about it or are you just not brave enough to think about it? Look, you are the best student in all of Capital City University. Man, even the teachers had to show you some form of respect. Look, I'm telling you that your future is extremely bright and limitless. Don't forget about me when you eventually become rich!"
Boyle chuckled and handed him a bottle of red wine as he said, "Just focus on your work. We won't be able to pay for the damages if you spill wine on any of the guest's clothes."
Hector inched closer and whispered to him, "You know, I heard that the daughter of the Fudd family had just graduated highschool and she's applying to study in our Capital City University.
When Boyle looked up, he caught a glimpse of the young woman nearby that was being surrounded by people. Her smile looked sweet when it was illuminated under the lights. It looked innocent and extremely pure.
Hector glanced over as well. He rested his chin on his palm while staring at her. He said, "The daughter of the Fudd family sure looks adorable and very innocent. She will grow to be an extremely beautiful woman in the future, alright."
Hector playfully asked his friend, "So, Boyle, are you interested in that junior of yours?"
Boyle squinted his dark beady eyes.
He noticed an attractive looking young man standing next to her under the lights nearby. They were both messing around with each other as the man playfully smeared some cream on the woman's beautiful white tender face.
The woman was annoyed and immediately picked up a piece of cake and threw it at the young man.
After fooling around for a while and while the woman was distracted, the young man hastily kissed her cheeks.
The woman was wide-eyed as she glared at the man before pinching the young man's arm.
They were literally the perfect couple.
Hector obviously caught that scene as well. He spoke in a slightly disappointed tone, "It seems that we'll never get the chance of pursuing after the daughter of the Fudd family. We should've expected that only a prince is worthy of a princess. We knights will never be worthy of her."
Boyle calmly withdrew his gaze. His gaze looked calm and emotionless.
Their worlds were completely different from each other.
