Despite the standing hairs on the back of John's neck, John reminded himself about how Donald was someone Theron had tricked into the warehouse. Hence, a person like Donald could not possibly be smart.
That was how John quickly recollected himself. With a confident smile he often used to fool the other students, he said to Donald, “Not only do I know them, but they're even my students.”
“I see,” Donald muttered as he took out his phone.
The smile on John's face froze.
What is the meaning of him taking out his phone?
The next thing John saw was Donald making an international call.
By then, Theron realized something was amiss as well. He hastily asked, “Donald, who are you calling? And it's an international call too.”
“Skovos, of course. When I brought him fishing, he never told me that he studied under a teacher in our country.”
What? He's calling Skovos?
John felt a stab of fear.
Meanwhile, Theron froze for a second before he put on a straight face and warned Donald grimly, “Donald, if you doubt Mr. Johnstone's identity, feel free to check his resume online. There's no need for you to be so snarky here. Who do you think Skovos is? He's one of the top ten billionaires in Anglandur. I'm the only one here who can contact him, so why are you taking out your phone and pretending to make a call to him?”
He was certain that Donald was only pretending to call Skovos by dialing a random overseas number.
After all, he had seen other students pulling the same move before.
If Theron were one of the gullible individuals, he would not have lasted in his line of work until then.
At the same time, Tracy mocked, “Don't say that, Darling. At the very least, Donald's the vice president of Dragon Fide Corporation and the abandoned son of the Campbell clan. What if he really does have a way to contact Skovos?”
With the former staring at him, John had no choice but to steel himself and uttered, “It's been a while, Mr. Gerkin.”
He could only pray hard that Gerkin did not remember who he was. That way, he would be able to fool his way through the moment.
Unfortunately, Gerkin was silent for a while after hearing John's voice.
“It's you, John Johnstone. You're a bold one, aren't you? How dare you call yourself my employer's teacher and try to fool Mr. Campbell? I remember that you have other businesses in Anglandur, right? I'll be reporting this to my employer, so you'd best offload your company's shares as soon as possible.”
Gerkin's words dumbfounded John.
In comparison to Skovos, he could barely be considered an entrepreneur.
Kicking John out of Anglandur would be a piece of cake for Skovos if that was what the latter wanted.
