Chapter 489 Advice

3rd Ranked Academy.

"We need to give him more. We shouldn't invite just him, but his entire group. I'm doubting that he will leave without his group."

"No way. He might ask an exorbitant price for it!"

"This is too much."

"Call the investors."

...

4th Ranked Academy.

"We should just kill him at this point. A dead genius is no genius. If we can eliminate him, it is sure a bad blow, but no one will have him at that point."

"But we don't know about the stance of Hana Skylark and the academy."

"I think it's better to wait and see. Other people are going to approach him as well, so it's going to be chaotic. At the very least, we still have one or two days to think this through."

"It's because you are so indecisive that we are ranked 4th now."

"We need to be decisive. Are we going to let them produce even more geniuses, especially this time? We are dealing with a genius who might be able to surpass Tier 8."@@@@

...

The top academies in the country were discussing their stance on Clovis' potential.

Unlike them, the 1st ranked academy seemed to have made a decision.

"Is there anyone objecting to my decision?" The principal asked.

They all nodded their heads in agreement.

...

While the academies were reaching their conclusions one by one, Hana was actually having a conversation with her grandfather.

"So for what reason did you come to me? It's rare for you to not be able to handle your own problem." He asked with a serious expression. If Hana had to resort to asking for his help, it meant the situation had become extremely serious.

Hana took a deep breath and said, "I'm planning to take a gamble, one that might even destroy our companies if I put the bet on the wrong side."

He raised his eyebrows before understanding what kind of gamble she was talking about. "I see. Is he worth it? I'm not talking about his potential as a Tier 9, but his character."

Hana sighed. "I don't know either. At a time, he is like a kid who doesn't know much. At another time, he is so calm as if everything has gone according to his plan. At some point, I don't even know what kind of person he is. However, I can say one thing for sure... He is reliable.

The proof is his teammates."

Her grandfather smiled. "In that case, why haven't you made a decision yet?"

"That's..." Hana hesitated as she looked into her grandfather.

"If you are worried about me and the companies I have built up, you don't have to. Do you know what I have learned during my time as a business? The risk is there to be taken. Some choose to ignore it or completely avoid it, which results in them not being able to rise. If you want it, grab it. For me, it's better to be known as a failure than a coward."

"On other perspectives, it can be said that losing everything means to be a loser, and avoiding such a thing can be said to be a wise decision." Hana shook her head.

"In that case, leave him. Cut off contact with him and go on your way."

Hana dropped her jaws to the ground, definitely not being able to do it.

Her grandfather simply said, "Now you know your answer. Then again, why don't you become... ehm, what is the terminology again? It wasn't popular during my time... Sugar... Sugar something. Ah! Yes, why don't you just become his sugar mommy?!"

"What?!"
