Chapter 305 A Friend
Keith stood by, waiting for Caden to continue giving instructions.
Caden didn’t speak and reached out
to find a lighter, but he searched for a long time and couldn’t find it.
Keith took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it for him.
Caden took a deep drag of his cigarette, his expression silent and gloomy, even the sparks between his fingers were trembling slightly.
After a long pause, he slowly spoke through the thin mist, “Go.”
“Yes.”
Keith glanced at Caden with concern before leaving to find Brend.
The office of Brend was empty.
I found out by making a phone call that he was doing activities at the outpatient building of the hospital.
It was noisy over there, and Brend had to shout to say a word reluctantly. It was definitely not possible to discuss matters like this. Keith hung up the phone when he said to go find him.
Just arrived at the outpatient building, the weather was still sunny in the morning, but suddenly there was a heavy rainstorm. Keith frowned and was about to go find Brend when a car stopped.

He lowered the car window, revealing the two people in the back seat.
Odin and Beatrice.
Without waiting for Keith to say hello, Beatrice suddenly grabbed her phone and screamed with excitement, even grabbing Odin’s hand. “Ah! My favorite school said I can have an online interview with them! Do you know how high their requirements are? I asked a lot of people before I dared to write an application, and I didn’t expect them to actually reply to me.”
“This school is a bit far,” Odin glanced at the reply email.

so happy that she didn’t realize Keith was still standing by the window after she finished speaking.
Seeing him, it is inevitable to think of someone.
She smiled and said, “Keith.”
“Mr. Soder, Ms. Lindsey,” Keith greeted politely, “What are you two…”
Odin explained, “My dad received a message that Sir Baldwin was hospitalized. He just returned to the country and had some matters to attend to, so he asked me to come and take a look.”
“Well, then I won’t disturb you two.”
Keith stepped back and could see Beatrice staring at her phone, giggling at the emails. It reminded him of Caden standing alone in the hallway.
“Ms. Lindsey, actually…”
“What?” Beatrice looked up at Keith.
Keith thought of Caden’s advice and pursed his lips, saying, “Actually, Sir Baldwin was not in any serious trouble. You didn’t have to go up there, so he wouldn’t say anything embarrassing again.”
“Thank you, I understand. I will wait for Mr. Soder in the car later,” Beatrice expressed her gratitude.
“Um.”
Keith nodded and prepared to leave.

Keyon called out to him, hooked off the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, and said with a smile, “It’s pouring rain, how are you going to get home later? Don’t say that I, your friend, don’t help you. Here, take my umbrella.”
Keyon threw the folded umbrella to Keith and then drove away.

Keyon pushed up his sunglasses, with a slight smirk on his lips.
Beatrice just happened to see and asked, “Keyon, why are you smirking?”
“Of course, the great revenge was avenged.”
“What does it mean?” Beatrice was confused.
Odin said impatiently, “Don’t mind him, he was just spoiled by my dad, never

“No, I was a student sponsored by Sir Soder. Because of my excellent grades, intelligence, and competence, I was taken in by the Soder family for nurturing. Keyon chuckled.
Beatrice clapped her hands and said, “Actually, you don’t have to say the second half,”

After Keith passed on Caden’s message to Brend, he mentioned Caden’s condition.
Upon hearing this, Brend handed over the task to someone else.
“I went with you to see him.”
“Um.”
The two of them walked to the door, and it was still pouring rain.
Keith took out an umbrella.
Brend praised, “Keith, as always, thoughtful.”
“A friend gave…”
With a swoosh, the automatic umbrella opened, and both of them looked inside the umbrella and cursed simultaneously.
“Grass.”
“Grass. Given by an enemy,” Keith gritted his teeth and said.
“Keyon still resented you for hitting him on the head and turning him into a pig’s head, huh? Are you… are you sure you want to hit him on the forehead again?”
Brend couldn’t help but laugh as he looked at the

full–body photo printed inside the umbrella.
As soon as the umbrella was opened above their heads, both of them immediately felt their scalps go numb.
This photo turned out to be different images when viewed from different angles.
Just as it was lifted above his head, Keyon’s photo, which had been normal just a moment ago, immediately transformed into a wild scene of whipping belts.
Following the belt down, it happened to be the umbrella handle.
Holding the umbrella handle was like holding Keyon’s belt.

Brend felt that he needed to wash his eyes: “I didn’t expect Keyon to be so flamboyant.” Keith looked disgusted: “You’re disgusting.”

“You supported.”
“You, hold on.”
“Ah, alright then.”
Brend took the umbrella handle, hoping he wouldn’t get pinkeye.

Both of them had half of their bodies outside, and neither of them wanted to move towards the middle.
Keyon upstairs saw it and laughed so hard that he slapped his thigh.
But when Odin called him, he immediately turned around and regained the serious demeanor that a professional assistant should have.
“Yes, young master.”

Beatrice sat in the car, feeling a bit stuffy because of the rain. She noticed a hot coffee vending machine not far away under the arcade.
So she got off the car and walked past, holding an umbrella.
After scanning the money, she also didn’t know if there was a program error, as the interface always displayed a prompt for her to choose again.
She wanted to give up after several attempts, but a hand reached out from behind her and pointed to a small line below.
“Sold out, please make another selection. What are you thinking?”
When Beatrice heard the sound, she had a moment of confusion and looked up to see a tall figure reflected in the glass cabinet behind her.
Caden.
The cold and biting air, mixed with the smell of tobacco, was oppressive and heavy. Even the passing wind couldn’t dispel this suffocating feeling.
Beatrice struggled to avert her gaze, leaning closer to the screen in order to read the small text beneath the button.
“It’s nothing,” she calmly clicked back and then selected a cup of coffee again.
Caden walked over to the nearby machine and ordered a coffee.
The wind blew his stray hair in front of his forehead, revealing a side profile that showed no expression but appeared very tired.
“It had nothing to do with you that he was hospitalized, so you don’t have to worry about it. I have already informed the family, so they won’t trouble your mother.”
