?Chapter 312:


    Omiros was left speechless.


    Why bring this up now?


    He had no inclination to continue the conversation.


    Upon Kaiden’s return home, he found an unexpected visitor on the sofa. He demanded, “Who allowed you to be here?”


    Omiros, sensing Kaiden’s unmistakable annoyance towards him, couldn’t help but feel a sense of triumph. “I let myself in,” Omiros dered triumphantly. “I’m here for Ellie, not you. She even ordered bubble tea for me!”


    Only then did Kaiden notice the two extra cups on the tea table. This time, the brand differed from thest.


    Why the change?


    He had observed Ellie indulge in bubble tea on three asions, each time with a different brand.


    Perceiving the confusion on Kaiden’s face, Omiros couldn’t help but revel in his victory. “Ah, you’re quite out of touch. Don’t you appreciate the joy of bubble tea? Tonight, Ellie arranged for the chef to prepare barbecue for me.”


    Kaiden remained disinterested in such matters.


    However, a sense of discontent arose when he observed Ellie and Omiros casually enjoying bubble tea and barbecue together, as if in unspoken agreement.


    “Did you pass the preliminary exam yesterday?” Kaiden inquired, his expression unreadable.


    The smile on Omiros’s face vanished instantly.


    Kaiden prompted an answer with a few piercing nces.


    Omiros scratched his head, reluctantly asking, “Which subject did you ask about?”


    “Whichever subject you passed in.”

    “Then you don’t need to ask!” Omiros said through gritted teeth.


    He had utterly failed the exam.


    When Ellie descended the stairs, she encountered the two men locked in an awkward stare-down. “What’s going on?” she asked.


    Kaiden exined, “Omiros ims he’s heading back to study and won’t join us for dinner.”


    Omiros was dumbfounded. What nonsense was Kaiden talking about?


    When did he make such a deration?


    Books wouldn’t flee on their own, why this sudden rush to study?


    “Kaiden! My dear cousin! I have vital information to share!” Omiros wore an expression that hinted at an impending sense of regret on Kaiden’s part if he didn’t acquiesce.


    Observing Kaiden’s stoic demeanor and his apparent inclination to promptly dismiss him, Omiros discreetly cast a furtive nce at Ellie, hoping she would pick up on the subtle hint.
