Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 129

“Now that my teaching assistant is here, I have work to do, so please leave, Mr. Lingham,” said Giselle before she dragged Casper into her dorm and closed the door.

Sawyer stood outside in the corridor, which had instantly turned empty. He was stunned for a whole thirty seconds.

He thought about how Giselle had obviously put some thought into her outfit, and a bad feeling crept upon him.

“F*ck!” cussed Sawyer.

Regardless of what the situation was, Casper had always inspired a sense of dread and danger within Sawyer. He had years of experience, and he could sense it when something was off.

The same thing happened at the teahouse. I know how good my temper is, but that Casper managed to make me lose my cool with just a few words!

This guy’s trick is really something else, and he is not an ordinary student… Or at least he is not as harmless as he seems.

If he and Giselle…

Sawyer’s mood turned gloomy once more. He paused for a while before he walked away.

On the other side, Giselle was dragging Casper right into her place. He put the groceries down and stared intently at her.

“So I’m a teaching assistant who is here to collect some documents? Hmm, why aren’t I aware of that, Ms. Clauder?” said Casper with a skin-deep grin on as he stared at Giselle.

“I was worried about others misreading the situation,” explained Giselle quickly. She was blushing when she spoke, though.

“Hmm, a misunderstanding? Are we just a teacher and her student? Is that really all we are?” asked Casper. He was still staring at her the way he used to. However, his words got Giselle to panic a little.

She was quick to answer, “That is not what I meant. You know how powerful Sawyer is, and I worry that he will come after you. That’s why I…”

Giselle couldn’t get herself to finish that sentence because she saw how Casper, who was gloomy and quiet a second ago, was instantly cheerful. His sorrow was all but gone.

“Aww, so you are worried about that guy hurting me? Does that mean you care about me?”

Giselle looked right at the man in front of her. She blushed. For a moment there, she felt like an idiot who set up the trap that tripped herself.

There was nothing she could say to undo what she said, though, because Casper had deciphered that she cared about him. He grinned brightly and quickly planted a kiss on Giselle’s cheek while she was still lost in her mind.

“Honestly though, Ms. Clauder. You look amazing today!”

After saying his piece, Casper picked up the groceries and went into the kitchen to make dinner.

Giselle, on the other hand, stared numbly at Casper’s back. Her cheeks blushed so quickly that even the naked eye could detect the change. Her heart acted even wilder and was thumping out of sync.

Shoot! I think I really fell for my student.

Naturally, Casper was on the other side of the room and was oblivious to what Giselle was thinking. If he had known what was running in her mind, he would probably do something even crazier.

Getting his goddess to be his girlfriend would make Casper so happy that he could have laugh himself awake from a coma.

After all, just seeing Giselle in a beautiful dress could make his imagination run wild, let alone if she were to become his girlfriend. His inhibition would’ve been even lower.

Even thinking about how she looked in that dress got Casper’s heart to stir.

At that moment, Casper had no idea that the woman of his dreams was actually about to be his girlfriend.

He was still busying away in the kitchen and cooking a series of delicacies for Giselle. Those delicacies included fried chicken, sautéed eggplant, fish cutlet, stir-fry vegetables, and a bowl of tomato soup.

When everything was served, Casper and Giselle got together to enjoy the meal together.

For the first time in her life, Giselle felt like Casper’s cooking couldn’t help in making her feel better. Her mind and attention were all on him.

Casper noticed how Giselle was behaving out of character. She was eating slowly, and that got him to wonder if there was something off with his cooking that day.

“Is the food not to your liking?”

Giselle hurriedly found an excuse and lied, “No, it’s great. I’m just a little full today.”

“Oh, then is your appetite low because I’m not good-looking enough today?” teased Casper deliberately because he saw how Giselle was being shy.

“Seriously, have you no shame?” complained Giselle in an embarrassed tone. Her face was blushing more and more.

After that little interruption, the two of them finally ate how they usually do.

Casper went to do the dishes after they had their meal. Giselle, on the other hand, turned on her computer and started streaming on the new platform, as per her contract requested.

She had already spoken to the previous platform. Since she never signed a contract with them and had always been a freelancer, she could leave whenever she wanted.

Hence, the manager of the previous platform couldn’t do anything. He had to watch as Giselle walked away.

Darwin Entertainment also spent quite some effort in advertising the live stream that night. It was a smart investment since Giselle was already one of the trending social media influencers.

When Casper finished doing the dishes and exited the kitchen, he saw Giselle live streaming. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Giselle still felt a little shy when she saw Casper. However, she didn’t say anything. She simply continued with her stream.

In a way, that was the first time Casper was in the room watching Giselle stream live. The last time was just an accident, so it didn’t really count, but this time, I really got to see it with my own eyes!

He watched as his goddess smiled sweetly, then sang as beautifully as the melodious chirps of the birds.

No one else knew that Casper was the only one with the privilege.

He got to see how stunning Giselle looked as she wore that dress and sang that touching tune.

It was holy and angelic.

Casper took a deep breath. He walked to Giselle’s side, sat down, and fished his phone out.

It didn’t take long before Giselle received a series of notifications.

Mr. Simpson has entered your live stream.

Mr. Simpson sent you Super Rocket x 99

Mr. Simpson sent you Banner x 5

Mr. Simpson sent you Banner x 10

Giselle was stunned in place. She shifted her gaze to Casper and was sending him a silent message to ask him what he was doing.

Casper grinned without saying anything. He simply typed into his phone.

It didn’t take long before Mr. Simpson’s comment popped up in Giselle’s live stream.

Will we have the honor of hearing the song “Can’t help falling in love” today?

Giselle glared over at Casper. Unfortunately, her eyes shone with so much love that her glare didn’t look intimidating at all. If anything, it was rather sexy.

Soon, she announced aloud, “Sure, I can sing the song since Mr. Simpson wants to hear it.”

“Wise men say, only fools rush in. But I can’t help falling in love with you. Shall I stay? Will it be a sin? If I can’t help falling in love with you. Like a river flows, surely to the sea. Darling, so it goes, some things are meant to be…”

Casper stared at Giselle. He was simply looking at her, but he felt like he would never get tired of staring.

Watching her and listening to her voice… It was as if his life was complete at that moment.

Just like that, he fell for Giselle once more. One look was all it took.
