Chapter 438 - Asking for Help (1/2)
Time passed swiftly as changes continued to occur in the city. Many people were adapting to the numerous changes that continued to invade their life. The change in the power structure caused a lot of people to lose their job and have to find another one. It took them some time to settle down and lived their lives again.
Most of the school started to operate again, except from those that got destroyed beyond repair, which included Nolen School C.

”Boss, there's a call from your high school friends,” Neo suddenly interrupted the working Kevin.
Kevin glanced up towards Neo with inquiring eyes. He eyed his phone on Neo's hand. Because he was busy most of the times, the one in charge for his call was all Neo. However, from all of his high school friends, there was only one person whom he kept the number in his phone.
”Give it to me,” Kevin ordered.
Neo gave the phone to Kevin as he looked around. Thankfully, the others were not here because Kevin didn't like to be interrupted when he was working.
”Pres –I mean Kevin,” Kanae's voice trailed off from the phone. ”How are you?”
”I'm good,” Kevin answered tenderly. It has been quite some time since the last time he saw her. She didn't appear in the office again, so he didn't have the chance to talk with her. ”Do you need help?”
”Not really help, but I want you to come over to Nali Family main mansion,” Kanae answered hesitantly. ”But if you're busy, you don't have to come.”
”Don't worry. I already finish my work.”
Neo looked towards the pile of paper on Kevin's table. Boss, if you want to lie, you should lie better. The numerous pile of papers were clearly indicating that this man still has a lot of works he had to do. After all, the death of Aida Family Head caused numerous businesses to shut down and a lot of people unemployed.
In addition, the one who took over the business were not all people who were willing to listen to him.
”Really?” Kanae's voice sounded rather excited.
”Yes,” Kevin answered coolly. ”What's the occasion?”
”Laura wants to decorate the mansion by putting more comfortable and usable tools plus painting the mansion. I was thinking that you might want to come over to help out and have fun along with the other people from the previous student council,” Kanae answered.
Kevin pondered for a few seconds. The other member should be Mike, Neo, Tommy, Jay, Kanae, and him. If included those from the second batch, there was Alice, Misae, and Laura. Considering that Jay was still busy in his clan and Misae was out of the city, there was no way she could invite them.
Wait, Alice?
”Who else do you want to come?” Kevin asked carefully.
”I'm thinking about inviting Mike, Neo, Tommy, and Alice too if they have the time,” Kanae replied.
Upon hearing that Kanae still included Alice, Kevin felt rather complicated. He didn't want the two girls to meet with each other because of the awkward position that he pushed to Alice for the time being. However, he didn't want to refuse Kanae.
”Are you sure?”
”Yes, is there anything wrong?” Kanae's voice sounded confused.
Kevin stayed silent for a moment. ”No, there's none. I'll be there right away.”
”Thank you, Kevin!” Kanae exclaimed happily. ”Do you know the location of the mansion?”
