He began, his voice started getting heavy with regret.
"Despite Ethan remarkable intellect and unwavering determination, he has faced numerous obstacles along the way, he wrote our yearly best student exam we normally open every year to get the best brains but it hasn''t been passed for years, but Ethan wrote the exams and passed so the university had to choice but to ept him."
He managed to facedy Madison to see if he would see any sign of softness in her, but her face looked even more deadly as ever now.
And at that moment he knows they are in trouble.
Lady Madison leaned forward, her lips shaking as he said.
"Go on."
she urged, her eyes narrowing slightly, though she was bing very angry that her jaw tightened, but she wants to hear everything about Ethan.
At that moment Chancellor Harrington sighed, running a hand through his thinning hair.
"Ethan came to us on a schrship, you see he was a bright star, brimming with potential. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, his schrship was reduced by half, leaving him to shoulder the burden of his remaining tuition, it wasn''t the school''s decision but the parents collective."
He then paused, shaking his head sadly.
"The young man has worked tirelessly to make ends meet. I''m aware that it hasn''t been easy for him after his schrship was cut in half, I''m also aware he started taking on odd jobs and burning the midnight oil to maintain his grades. But it hasn''t been easy.
He''s struggled to keep up with his peers, both academically and socially, nobody wants to associate with him, they see him differently because of his background, and how he got into the school he has never been epted and it started affecting his confidence"
Harrington then managed to look atdy Madison on the eyes again and his heart skipped, the look on her face has gone from manageable to something very deadly, without being told he knows his emotional trick he used to make her see the school wasn''t at fault, didn''t work they did everything they could but it was Ethan who lost his head by fighting.
But it seems it did work and he feared what wasing next.
However Lady Madison''s grip tightened on the armrest of her chair, and her knuckles started turning white, she couldn''t believe her grandson had passed through hell, just because he didn''t belong.
Her jaw tightened even more, she isn''t going to forgive anyone that made her grandson suffer.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
However she was curious with this one question because Thompson made mention he was in the school football team, but the chancellor didn''t make mention of it.
With a cold voice that can freeze up someone''s heart she said without blinking.
"And what of his extracurricr activities?"
she asked, her voice taut with barely contained emotion.
"I understand he has a passion for football and he''s also in the school football team."
upon hearing whatdy Madison just said. Harrington expression grew even more somber, he never wanted to say that because it wasn''t important, and he wouldn''t get Sympathy from her for that, but now he understand she has also done her background checks beforeing here, he couldn''t believe he never thought of that, and he was trying to y an emotional game that didn''t work.
At that moment his voice became shaking as he said.
"Ah, yes. Football. Ethan''s love for the game is unquestionable.
He has attended every tryout, and poured his heart and soul into every practice session. But, s, he has never quite managed to secure a spot on the school team. Thepetition is fierce, and despite his best efforts, he has been overlooked time and again, I think the coach doesn''t see anything special in him, so I can''t say he''s a football yer because he has never yed before"
As Lady Madison listened to the Chancellor''s words, a flicker of anger danced in her eyes. She couldn''t scarcely believe that her own flesh and blood, her beloved grandson, had endured such trials and tribtions without her knowledge.
The thought of Ethan, being alone and struggling, his dreams slowly eroding under the weight of financial burden and personal disappointment, was almost too much to bear.
She drew in a sharp breath, her voice trembling slightly as she spoke.
"Chancellor, I have made my decision. As of this moment, I will be personally financing Ethan''s education. He will no longer have to worry about tuition fees or the cost of his books and supplies. He will have the freedom to focus on his studies and pursue his passions without the specter of financial ruin hanging over his head."
Upon hearing whatdy Madison just said the Chancellor''s eyes widened in surprise, his mouth started falling open slightly he couldn''t believe it, he never thought this to be the oue, he thought Ethan had done something wrong not knowing he didn''t, he was just worried for nothing.
His voice became even more shaky.
"Madam Madison, that is... that is incredibly generous of you. I''m sure Ethan will be overjoyed to hear this news, the poor boy has went through hell I will–"
At that moment Lady Madison held up her hand, silencing him.
"There''s more. I want Ethan to y in tonight''s football game. I want to see him out on that field, showcasing his talents and living out his dreams. And I will be there, in the stands, cheering him on as he takes his rightful ce among his peers, chancellor you know what to do."
Upon hearingdy Madison order
Chancellor Harrington nodded, his entire body was still shaking, he was just trying to pretend to put on a strong face, but deep down, he doesn''t know the connection Ethan has withdy Madison and he can''t ask either.
However on the second thought hearingdy Madison will be avable for today''s game made a soft smile start spreading across his face , he knows the news will be all over the country, and it''s going to make the school even more popr, without wasting anymore time he said.
"Of course, Madam Madison. I will make the necessary arrangements. Ethan will have his chance to shine while you watch."
