Chapter 29
Thompson at that moment nodded his head, without being told he could tell how important this is to lady Madison, and he's going to do everything possible to make it a reality.
Not long after Lady Madison and Thompson arrived at the university, their faces etched with determination as they drove into the school.
The sun hung low in the sky, casting long shadows across the sprawling campus as they navigated the winding paths leading to the management building.
The car stopped and lady Madison immediately came down off the car, and started walking towards the Chancellor office.
Thompson struggled to keep pace with Lady Madison's brisk, he couldn't match the pace in which lady Madison was walking.
As they approached the Chancellor's office, Lady Madison paused, her hand resting on the polished brass doorknob. She took a deep breath, steeling herself for the confrontation that lay ahead; she didn't want any other disappointment here.
With a curt nod to Thompson who looks so worried, that lady Madison is holding the doorknob herself, he wanted to walk closer to her so he could take over when lady Madison pushed open the door and strode inside, her head held high.
The Chancellor, a balding, bespectacled man in his late fifties, looked up from his desk wanting to see who just entered his office, without knocking the door.
He wanted to say something when his eyes widened in surprise.
He couldn't believe who was in front of him. Immediately he scrambled to his feet, nearly knocking over his cup of coffee in the process but he didn't mind.
"Madam Madison!"
He exclaimed, his voice tinged with a mix of fear and worries, he didn't know what to say or how to approach lady Madison however he couldn't help but say with a shaking voice.
"To what do I owe this unexpected visit?"
He was still talking and at the same time arranging the chair for lady Madison to sit down.
Upon seating down Lady Madison fixed him with a steely gaze, her lips pressed into a thin line as she said.
"I heard you're the Chancellor of this university."
she said, her tone clipped and businesslike.
Without being told he knows he dare not to sit down when lady Madison is seated, he will just take this as a mistake from the chancellor.
Seeing Thompson refusing to seat down his entire body started vibrating with fear, knowing the situation is more serious than it first looks.
Lady Madison said with a cold voice.
" Since you know, the Ethan I'm looking for and it seems you know something about him"
she said with no smiling on her face, it was like she was reading the name of listed soldiers
" Chancellor!"
immediately his heart almost jumped out of his chest as he faced lady Madison.
"Yes, Madam Madison"
his entire body started vibrating even more he didn't know what lady Madison was about to say, but whatever it was it's not good, Ethan did something and she must be here to punish the university for it.
At that moment his eyes were focused on lady Madison's lip, and he nervously waited for what lady Madison was going to say.
Lady Madison however was still not smiling.
The chancellor's remark about Ethan is still ringing in her head and she wants to know what has been going on.
" Chancellor, I want you to tell me everything you know about Ethan, I mean everything you know"
At that moment the chancellor eyes widen a little when, he heard what lady Madison was asking, he knows it would be something tedious or Ethan had done something and she just want to punished them for it, but it seems he was wrong, she just wants to talk about it or she might deal with them even more if she heard how poor he was.
However with a shaking hands he steepled his fingers, his expression started growing somber.
But he too decided to play smart because he doesn't know what is coming next.
with a low and shaking voice he said.
"I'm afraid young Ethan has had a rather difficult journey here"
