Divorced The True Heiress Gets It All novel Chapter 374

Chapter 374

Deangelo

Gloria knocked on Deangelo’s office door, carrying a fruit basket.

Lennox, standing beside her, tried to contain his excitement.

Deangelo looked up, surprised to see her. “Well, what brings you here?”

Gloria chuckled and walked in with the basket. “Guess what brings me here.”

The two had been old classmates for years and always kept in touch.

“I had some business in Kanit City, so I thought I’d drop by and see you. By the way, let me introduce you. This is Lennox, my nephew. He’s been passionate about computer science since he was a kid, and he’s quite talented.”

Lennox’s face lit up with joy as he stepped forward politely. “Professor Reed, I’ve admired you since I was little. It’s an honor to finally meet you.”

“I’ve just been admitted to Kanit University for a master’s degree.”

The official admission notice from Kanit University hadn’t been issued yet. This kid’s wording was a bit imprecise.

He was definitely not the kind of student Deangelo was looking for.

But Gloria’s visit today was clearly for this purpose.

After so many years of friendship, pulling a few strings wasn’t out of the question.

Deangelo nodded. “Not bad.”

He glanced at Gloria and couldn’t help teasing, “Bringing gifts to win me over? It’s just taking on a student, not a big deal.”

Hearing his agreement, Gloria laughed. “These are freshly picked fruits. I know you’ve got a sweet tooth, so I brought them along for you.”

Seeing how approachable Deangelo was, Lennox suddenly felt a wave of nerves.

This visit, brought by his aunt, was the best chance he had.

Lennox carefully reached into his pocket and took out a glasses case.

He said earnestly, “Professor Reed, I’ve always admired you. I heard you have a strong prescription, so I specially prepared this for you.”

These were custom–made glasses Lennox had commissioned from abroad, worth tens of thousands of dollars.

He wasn’t just hoping to make a good impression, he was also looking for a chance to ask to become Deangelo’s disciple.

There’s a world of difference between being a student and being a disciple.

A student was just an ordinary learner in the classroom, ultimately still an outsider.

But a disciple was like family and the master would teach with wholehearted dedication.

Even Patrick hadn’t been lucky enough to become Deangelo’s disciple.

Lennox’s sudden move lett Deangelo staring in disbelief.

Over the years, students had tried to get close to him, but always after building a relationship first. No one had ever asked to become his pers apprentice at their very first meeting.

This was the first time he’d encountered such a direct request.

Gloria’s expression shifted. She looked at Lennox in shock.

She hadn’t expected him to pull something like this out of nowhere.

With a complicated, apologetic look, Gloria glanced at her old classmate, truly regretting bringing Lennox along.

Deangelo’s smile vanished. Without even glancing at the pl

said firmly, “I don’t take on apprentices, only students. Please take your gift back.

Any further insistence would only invite a scolding.

Lennox hurried to explain, “Professor Reed, this is just a small token of respect from me as a junior. Even if you don’t accept me, I still want you to have
