Mark Harris and the two kids sat around a circular table facing each other. The atmosphere in the room was so stiff that the servants in the room did not dare to look at them. It looked as if a third world war is going to erupt between the two parties at any moment.

Mark Harris looked at his two brats seriously " I've let you do whatever you want till today. Now, it's time you start taking things seriously."

" Noah, I am not opposing your interest in graffiti. But, you can't live on that. So, I need you think about your future seriously. First, you should enter Harris University."

"First, I should pass in math before thinking about such things.." Noah Harris countered his father.

" That's why I found an online tutor for you." Mark Harris handed him a piece of paper. Noah looked at the paper and his lips twitched on seeing the details

' Name: Conqueror

" Dad, who is this conqueror?"

Mark Harris ignored his son's mocking tone and spoke in a solemn voice " That person's identity is confidential. Also, I personally tested that person and I was amazed by his skills.. So, don't doubt him.."

Mark Harris did as Isabella instructed. It seems she was registered as a male and she clearly wanted to hide her identity. Though he didn't understand why, he was more than happy to cover up for her. So, he acted out his part perfectly.

Noah pondered for a while " I usually hate math and all the tutors you brought earlier made me hate that subject completely. So, if this so called 'amazing man' of yours is also the same, I will quit studying and concentrate on graffiti."

" Noah.." Mark spoke in a warning tone. But, Noah didn't care " I'm informing this out of my respect for you. I'm not asking for your permission father."

Mark Harris didn't want to force him any further. So, he resigned " Alright.. since you've decided, so be it.. But, you need to attempt the entrance test seriously before taking a final decision."

Noah nodded " I know dad.."

Mark Harris looked at his daughter Laura and sighed deeply. He did not have a healthy relationship with his younger daughter. When his wife died during child birth, he arranged a nanny to take care of her. During that period, Mark Harris was solely involved in developing his company as it was still in it's growth period. Moreover, he didn't have any idea of how to take care of kids. So, the distance between them gradually increased.

So, he really did not know how to talk with his daughter now. Laura saw her so called 'father's' expression and smiled self-mockingly.

" Father, you need not worry about me suddenly. In these past few years, did you care about me? So, why bother now?"

" Are you scared that this daughter will bring you shame?" Laura continued ignoring her father's pale complexion.

It was Noah who couldn't bear this as he rebuked her " Laura, stop it.. You know father worked so hard for us. Don't blame him.."

" Hahaha.." Laura smiled bitterly " Noah, you had a mother and a father. But, I didn't have both and I am always alone. It was sister Arian that took care of me.. I treated her as both my father and mother. After her death, my heart became empty and this mansion is just a house for me.. This place is definitely not my home.."

" Laura, enough of this. Don't speak carelessly. Everyone in this house misses Arian. She was the one who took care of Elder brother, me and you.. So, don't speak as if you are the only one who is missing her.."

Laura pursed her lips as Noah continued " Our brother Brian is the most affected after her death. Didn't you see his changes? He is surrounding himself with girls all the time..." Noah stopped speaking till here with a painful expression on his face.

Laura looked at her brother and father while speaking " Father, since you wish that I should study, I will.. But, I wish that we interact more like a family.."

After saying her words, Laura left the room while slamming the door loudly.
