Stay Around You Now And Forever

Chapter 205 The Last Promise He Gave

The result of the top five was not far from expectations. Besides Emily's September Drawing Club, Nina's Studio and Flora's Painting Club, the rest of the two shortlisted candidates were extremely well- known among universities which were the Painting Club of the Skyler University, the university's own painting club and Bentson University's own painting club which was taken in charge by the lecturer of the school. Both painting clubs had been established for years and always collaborated with the organizations in actual club on behalf of the school.

Since the Sharp's had spoken up their will to establish a new animation company, who would not want their club being chosen? Even if it was the school's club, it still required external sponsorship in order to be maintained. Therefore, the competition this time was very fierce and was now heated.

"Emi, so what now? Shall we quickly get a lead drawer now?” Sally and Lois had been asking Emily the same question when the result was released. Their club had been upgraded in school and they could appoint drawer from any grade directly. Yet the problem was since they only started to appoint a lead drawer at this point of time, it was afraid that it would be difficult for the new guy to get along with them after being hired. "No matter how, a team must have a lead drawer. Or else, what would happen to the final tomorrow?” Emily continued sitting in front her laptop and seemed to not hold any interest towards their conversation. "Emi, so you don't want to appoint anyone anymore?” Sally was like a cat on hot bricks and was indignant of her indifferent attitude. "Even if we do hire somebody now, we still can't use the guy, so why the fuss?” Emily said.

"But…”

"No more ‘but'. Didn't we decide to go for hot pot today? Are we still going or not?”

"How could we have the mood to go for hot pot at a moment like this?” Even Lois was unable to bear with it anymore. Everybody was a bundle of nerves, but how could Emily act so silent and carefree? No, there was someone else, and that was Terry. Terry was indeed gorgeous and her heart plummeted

for a long while when she first saw him, yet as they got along, she realized Terry was exactly Emily's shadow. He went wherever she went and sat whenever she sat. He watched her when she smiled and stayed beside her when she cried. Emily did not care about something and so did he. Nevertheless, it seemed like only both of them were longing to enjoy the hot pot while the rest were all dejected that their heads lolled when they walked. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

They encountered Flora and her team upon walking down the street. "Isn't this the September Drawing Club?” Flora chuckled and said. She beamed when she saw Emily now. "I heard that your lead drawer has gone to Nina's Studio and your team is lacking spirit of cooperation now. Why don't you just quit from tomorrow's final?”

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why should we quit?” Sally spoke indignantly. Lois did not look happy too and she said, "We're not having only one lead drawer after all!”

"Oh really? So where's your lead drawer?” Flora covered her mouth and smiled disdainfully. "I suppose your lead writer is still now enjoying himself on Nina's bed now.”

"What do you mean?”

"They went into a hotel after having meal together last night. Didn't you know about that?” Flora crossed her arms over her chest and sneered. "Do you know why your talented drawer abandon you and join Nina's Studio instead?” Her female assistant beside her asked with a smile, "Why?”

"Because the Nina's Studio's captain is pretty of course. Can't you see how ugly the person in front of you is?”

"That's true. If I were him, I would choose Nina Marsh too. How would I be with such a freckled ugly beast?”

"What did you say?” A tall shadow loomed to the front. Before the guy who spoke just now could make clear of the situation, his collar was being snatched by someone. His foot was detached from the ground and he was lifted up in the air by the comer with a single arm. Everybody was stunned by the strength of his arm. "What…what are you planning to do?” Flora backed up due to fright and so was the gang. They stared at Terry with panic eyes.

"How dare you…in broad daylight…”

"It's already night.” Sally reminded her. "You…you…” Flora suddenly yelled. "Help! Someone's getting killed! Help!”

"Terry.” Emily called softly. Terry loosened his hand and that guy dropped onto the ground. He scrambled to his feet and hurriedly went behind Flora. Emily walked towards Flora with a light smile. Her calmness and composure did not match her age. She smiled and said, "Even if our team quits, you still have three more strong opponents. And you definitely could not win against Nina's Studio. So, your club's situation is not at all different from ours. And laughing at us would also mean laughing at yourselves.”

"Nonsense, how could a bunch of crap like you match us?” Flora pulled a long face. "What I'm talking now is, could you possibly match Nina's Studio?” Although the Jackson's intended to build an animation company, yet their representative was Wendy Gale who had almost no relationship with the Jackson family. Therefore nobody knew how sincere Jackson's intention to delve into animations was. Yet it was different for the Sharp's as the second son of the Sharp family who was an unquestionable powerful existence in the family served as one of the judges, and they only had one quota, which meant that getting a second place was no different than getting a fifth place.

"So what? Who says Nina's Studio is definitely powerful? That Nina Marsh only managed to get to the top with casting couch. Their work before was definitely good, yet during this recent year, they could

not make anything decent. I even doubt whether the work in the past was made by herself or not.” Flora's face went gloomy with blatant contempt. "If she has not dragged the talented drawer to her team before the final this time, do you think she could definitely get first place with her capability?”

"No. Aryan Nicholson has not signed the contract with Nina's Studio yet, and he would not participate in the contest on behalf of the Nina's Studio tomorrow too.”

"How did you know?” Flora was startled. "Aryan was still a kind person. It was the last promise he gave me. And Nina assumes herself to be brilliant enough therefore as long as Aryan does not compete with her, she's not scared of anybody.”

"Pat! That bitch really thinks she's superb?” Flora pondered about something and suddenly turned. "Let's go.” And the whole gang actually left with her. "What's going on?” Sally went to Emily's side. "You said Aryan has given you a promise?”

"I was only afraid that they'll harm Aryan.” Emily shook her head and gazed at the group of people who was walking far away. They even knew where did he go Aryan and who did he meet last night, therefore it was difficult to believe they had not watched him all the time. Lois sighed. "How could you still care for him when he's betrayed you?” Emily did not speak yet her watery eyes were gleaming with a light nobody could understand. "Enough of the talking. Let's go for hot pot.”
