Chapter 169 - 167: Outcome Of The Fundraising II

"Now, regarding the project 'we are the world' although I know that it is still on going, based on what I saw, I know that it is already a huge success. I've been to town yesterday and saw with my own two eyes how copies after copies were being sold. Miss Serena, do you have any estimate when we will learn of the numbers?" Timothy stated.

"We can have an initial turn about next week, but since the funds we currently have is already more than sufficient, I think we can discuss it the week after. That way we can see a better turn about and at the same time, Mr. Edward won't have to rush with the computation as he's also very busy now." Serena explained.

"Alright. Then let's talk about it the week after the next. Anyway, Geoffrey?" Timothy looked at Geoffrey to take over.

"Good afternoon everyone, now, I know that some of the volunteers here have nothing to do with this, but I just have to make some announcements and matters to discuss as the student council did not meet yesterday." He began.

"On Sat.u.r.day next week, there will be no meeting as everyone needs to prepare for the prefinal exam. Vice president Artemis, are the sample exams for the students been already prepared?"

"Yes, we will be leaving them starting tomorrow outside the library like last time." Artemis replied.

"Okay, now, regarding the intramurals, I understand that the last day would be on the 5th of May where the semi-final and final round for polo would be held. However, after that, we will also have the awarding ceremony for all the events. Representative Diether, are all the prizes been prepared for?"

"Yes, you don't have to worry about anything and just play the polo match with ease of mind." Diether teased knowing that Geoffrey's team was in the semi-final round.

"Hey! You better give him some headache lest his team win the polo event this year!" Kylo complained.

"Kylo, as far as I can remember you were part of his team last year." Artemis interjected.

"Well not this year" Kylo replied.

"Kylo, don't you think that it will be better that way, at least it won't be that embarra.s.sing when you lose against my team then." Geoffrey teased.

"Ha! You're all talk. You better prepare, as surely, with me, Charlie, Leo, and Joshua, we'll turn your team to dust!" Kylo announced.

Douglas annoyed spoke up, "Hey, you're playing with my team first. Don't think that we're easy picking!"

Charlton sitting at the side smirked while thinking 'Oh, so this Doug's team will be who we're going to play with first on Sat.u.r.day? Ha! I'll make him chew bones!'

Kylo looked at Douglas like he was just some pest trying to get some attention. "Don't worry, before Geoffrey's team, we'll pulverize yours first."

Douglas turned red in indignation. Really, that Kylo never gave him face for since, ever. Not wanting to be shamed by his tactless mouth, he did not reply anymore.

"Oooh!!! I'm so excited for the 5th. My beautiful hat will finally see the light of day." Mary said.

Gina laughed, "Me too! I'm looking forward to the divot stomping as that is my favorite part."

"okay, okay, people, stop talking about polo, and let's get back on track." Timothy interrupted. If he let them talk about polo, their meeting would never end.

Geoffrey cleared his throat, "Okay. Now as we have the last day of intramurals on the 5th, I suggest that we move our next visit here on the week after that. Thus, regarding the outcome report for 'we are the world' I suggest that we move it 3 weeks back. Is that okay?"

Since there was no rush regarding the fund, everyone nodded in agreement.

Serena also thought that it's actually more convenient that way. More time means more discs have been produced and sold, so the profit should be larger. Besides, she wanted some time to relax, and hearing Charlton will also play polo made her want to watch the game. She's not a fan of getting near horses, riding, or playing, but that does not mean she won't enjoy seeing her man on top of one. Also, the thought of him wearing an equestrian attire excited her.

Seeing everyone understood and agreed to his suggestion, Geoffrey turned to Timothy who then ended the meeting and asked everyone to go back to their respective rooms according to their group's a.s.signment.

At 4pm, they dismissed the children. So, it was just Kylo, Serena, Emily and Geoffrey left in the room.

Emily still felt ashamed about what happened last time. However, she was able to think it through. Although she did not like Serena, she acknowledges the fact that she's very capable. Aside from that, seeing her build a career of her own plus the pull her music had, she came to the realization that it would be more useful to actually be on Serena's good side. With that thought in mind, she swallowed her pride.

"Ms. Serena, I know that we started on the wrong foot, but I wish to thank you for what you did during the fundraising event. Also, I'm sorry for everything I did in the past." Emily said trying to sound sincere.

Serena raised her brow. Was Emily for real? Truthfully, if she and Charlton still have not gotten back together, she would be rude enough to say that she didn't do it for her. However, since they did, she was willing to be more gracious.

So, she nodded her head and responded saying "You're welcome.". Anyway, if Emily, a real 18-year-old girl, can be mature enough, then she, as the real older person should also act in kind. How bad could the female lead written by her granddaughter be? As long as she doesn't cross her again, she was willing to act civil.

Emily did not try to converse anymore after that. She just left the room not wanting to embarra.s.s herself any longer. Not because she apologized and thanked Serena meant that she was giving up. She still wants to surpa.s.s her, it's just that she knew that Serena will be a powerful figure someday.
