NovelEnglish"Will we be allowed inside?" Ivy asked sheepishly.
Mike smiled. "Technically speaking, the school is not open to tourists, but we just need to register as guests." "Oh... Uncle Mike, do you know someone there?" "No." Mike's social circle was limited to Aryadelle and Bridgedale. "But the guard doesn't know that. Just keep quiet and follow my lead. I promise that we will get in." Ivy trusted Mike when she saw the confident look on his face.
Feeling slightly shy, he asked, "Aren't you worried that I'm lying?" "Of course, not. I just think you are really talented, in a different way than Dad and Hayden," she said.

It's not like we are doing something bad." "You are right, actually. I'm not like your dad, and I like learning weird skills..." "I think it's interesting," she said earnestly. "As long as you are not doing something bad." "I wasn't a good person before knowing your mom, but she keeps tabs onand after knowing Chad, he does the same... Haha. I guess I enjoy the leash." "Because it means that someone cares about you." Ivy felt the same. "Everyone enjoys that." "Ivy, there will always be people who care about you from now on." "I know!" Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the university.
Mike and Ivy got out of the car and headed toward the guard post.
"I have an appointment with Professor Armstrong. He is in a meeting now and told us to register here before going inside." Mike lied through his teeth.
The guard looked Mike up and down and did not suspect a thing since Mike was properly dressed and had the air of someone with high social status.
Since Professor Armstrong might actually be in a meeting, the guard could not call to confirm what Mike said.
The guard took out a notebook for Mike to write down his name, and Mike shot Ivy a grin before doing so.
After registering, the two entered the campus.
Ivy sighed a breath of relief and said, "Uncle Mike, is there really a Professor Armstrong?" "Yeah! He is a rather famous professor, and the guard should know him." Mike propped his hands into his pockets and smiled smugly. "Besides, Professor Armstrong is indeed in a meeting right now." Ivy gave him a thumbs up. "You are awesome, Uncle Mike! You are lying by telling a bit of the truth so that they can't tell if what you said is real." "Hahaha! We can't assthat everyone can be easily fooled, after all!" Mike said before walking over to the campus map and Ivy followed closely behind.

hovels "Yeah. The bricks look ancient," Ivy said. "This campus is so pretty. Studying here must feel great." "You are too easily satisfied." Mike walked down a path next to Ivy. "Let's just walk around the campus before going inside." "Sure. Lettake a photo." Ivy took out her phone and snapped a photo of the building next to her.
"I should have brought my drone!" Mike said. "It would look much better if we take photos with the drone." "Will they let us use a drone here?" "No one will care since we are already in." "I just want a few photos to remember the moment by." Ivy did not need much and only wanted to fulfill her wish of visiting the place where Lucas studied.
"Should I take one for you?" Mike asked.
"It's fine! I don't want my parents to know that I've been here." She did not want her parents to learn about Lucas. She was no longer Irene, and she did not want them to think that she held onto her past.
