Chapter 1562
James noticed the surprised look on Dane's face and said, "Having a girlfriend isn't that unusual, right?"
"For others, it's normal," Dane blurted out. But for this student of his, it seemed quite unusual! He had once wondered if this guy might end up finding a boyfriend instead.
James looked puzzled. "Huh?"
Dane coughed and quickly changed the subject, "So, is your girlfriend from one of those prestigious Riverdale families? Would the professor know her?"
"She's still a student, so you probably wouldn't know her," James paused for a moment. "But interestingly, your marine engineering department has a joint project with her school."
Dane's expression turned curious, "Your girlfriend goes to Prestige College?"
The marine engineering department only had a few joint projects, and since there was only one collaboration with a school, it wasn't hard to guess.
"Yeah," James nodded, raising an eyebrow. "Why, is there a problem?"
"No..." Dane averted his gaze, feeling a bit guilty. What a coincidence.
Fortunately, he hadn't mentioned anything about Hank earlier. If James found out his girlfriend might have been wronged, it might be tough to get him to cooperate again in the future.
"Alright, you should get going. I won't take up more of your time," Dane waved him off, signaling for him to leave.
James gave him a curious look.
Dane pretended not to notice the student's gaze, picked up the blueprints, and continued his study, already contemplating how to address the Hank issue.
At school, Zane was quite surprised when Hank called to apologize personally. In the morning, it had been the head of the DO Group apologizing, and now in thenoveldrama

afternoon, it was someone from the Tech Center... Was today national apology day?
Hank and Calvin were completely different. Zane could argue with Calvin, but he didn't dare to with Hank. He simply said, "Now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, you don't need to be too hard ono yourself. Besides, the DO Group already signed the contract with our school this morning, so there's no issue of loss."
Hank hadn't known about this and felt quite uneasy when he heard that the contract was signed in the morning. He recalled trying to call Calvin earlier, who didn't pick up, clearly guilty.
Hank's dislike for Calvin grew even more. After ending the call with Zane, he decided to call Mr. Belcher from the department.
Meanwhile, Zane, after hanging up, immediately sent Mirabella a few messages on Messenger, sharing the news of Hank's apology with her.
Mirabella had just gotten into the car when she received Zane's message, feeling a bit surprised as she hadn't expected an apology from the Tech Center She quickly thought of Dylan and figured it might be thanks to her clumsy son.
Just then, her phone rang with an incoming call. It was her friend Blaze.
Mirabella sat up straight and answered, "Hey, Blaze."
"Mira, are you still at school? I'm inviting you to dinner tonight, and I have something to discuss with you." Blaze had just finished up and was heading to the parking lot.
"Oh, I just left school," Mirabella replied.
"I've been so busy, I forgot to text you in advance," Blaze said, sounding a bit frustrated with himself.
"No worries, I don't have much planned for tonight. Just tell me where to meet, and I'll head over." Mirabella glanced at the man driving next to her and added, "By the way, I'm with a friend right now."
"Bring your friend along!" Blaze, being the single social butterfly he was, didn't mind at all. Mira's friend was probably a great company too.
