Chapter 492: Chapter 491: Roommate
Nathan Foster would explode if he knew she shared a dorm with Chester Lynch...
Just as South Grant was thinking this, Nathan Foster’s WeChat message came through.
South Grant’s heart skipped a beat, thinking, "A person is really summoned by thought; I just thought of Nathan Foster, and here he is messaging."
South Grant looked down to see the message from Nathan Foster on WeChat:
"Are you satisfied with the new room?"
While South Grant was contemplating how to reply, Chester Lynch slowly raised his head and casually said:
"It’s a message from Mr. Foster, right?"
South Grant could only nod in response.
Chester Lynch put down his magazine and teacup, stood up, and said from not too far in front of South Grant:
"South, can you do me a favor?"
South Grant couldn’t help but look at him, wondering what help he needed.
"What is it?"
"The thing is, I’m juggling both school and work responsibilities now, and I don’t want to waste time commuting, so I chose to stay on campus. Also, I’ll be having video conferences with the company’s executives, sometimes involving confidential matters, and I prefer not to let other students know. Since we’re roommates, I trust you."
South Grant hesitated when she heard Chester Lynch speaking so sincerely.
"You can apply to the school for a single room; I remember they have those."
Chester Lynch: "There are a lot of students this year, the rooms are almost full, and the only single room has already been taken ahead of time. I was too late."
After saying this, Chester Lynch glanced at South Grant and continued:
"I also need to apologize to you for this matter."
South Grant was puzzled, "Why are you apologizing to me?"
Chester Lynch: "Actually, that single room was reserved for you by Mr. Foster, but coincidentally, there’s another new student named South Grant this year, so I swapped you two."
South Grant: "..."
No wonder Nathan Foster asked if she was satisfied with the new room; he had arranged for an independent room for her.
Just as South Grant was speechless, Chester Lynch spoke again:
"I realize my actions were rather abrupt. But among all the students and teachers in school, you’re the only one I trust. Don’t worry, everything here is for you to use; I won’t interfere with your life. If I have video conferences, I’ll go out to the balcony, which is quite spacious. I’ve already moved my bed to the balcony, so it won’t affect you."
South Grant was now unsure of what to do.
Chester Lynch had helped her before, and not just once.
Now, hearing him speak so earnestly, would she be a bit heartless not to help?
Just as South Grant was hesitating about whether to help, Chester Lynch spoke again, "If you’re uncomfortable with this, I can sleep in the corridor outside. After lights-out at ten, no one checks the dorm. I can take my bedding and sleep outside."
South Grant thought, with Chester Lynch saying that, it would indeed be inconsiderate to refuse.
So South Grant nodded.
"Alright, it doesn’t matter where I live."
Anyway, it’s just for the half-month during military training, and afterward, she could go home.
This way, it would be convenient for Chester and herself.
"South, thank you." Chester Lynch smiled warmly.
"You’ve helped me so much already, and I haven’t even thanked you yet. It’s just half a month of military training, and once that’s over, I’ll go back home, so it’ll be more convenient for you too." South Grant said with a smile.
