Ike waved his hand and pulled out the chair next to him for Carrie to sit down.

After Carrie sat down, Ike pointed to Ms. Jean Grey and introduced her to Carrie: "This is Ms. Jean Grey, the vice principal of Westchester Xavier School for Gifted Children."

Jean Grey smiled slightly at Carrie.

Carrie looked at Ike with some confusion.

Ike smiled and said, "Carrie, you're not the only one who's special in the world. Ms. Gray in front of you is one of them. This time, Ms. Gray wants to invite you to study at Xavier's Academy of Geniuses."

Carrie hesitated for a moment, then said, "I...I need to be with my mother..."

“You don’t need it,” Ike interrupted directly.

Carrie was taken aback.

Ike glanced at the time on his wristwatch and said directly to Ms. Jean Grey, "Your efficiency is terrible. The child protection agency hasn't even arrived yet?"

Ms. Jean Grey was also stunned.

Ike shrugged and laughed, "What? I don't believe you didn't try to understand Carrie's family background when you recruited her. That's why Carrie is so resilient. If it were someone else, they would probably either have gone crazy or died young."

Carrie, who was standing next to her, looked completely bewildered.

She vaguely felt that Ike was talking about her, but she wasn't quite sure what he meant.

Ms. Gray looked directly at Principal Nancy and asked, "Is this the child you asked to take care of?"

Principal Nancy looked helpless.

Let's see what Ike did tonight.

Principal Nancy has already foreseen the storm that awaits her the moment she wakes up tomorrow.

Looking at Principal Nancy with a helpless expression, Ike said, "Principal, you can ask Ms. Gray how destructive a mutant can be when he gets angry."

Nancy retorted curtly, "Why do you think I'm here with Ms. Gray tonight?"

Ike blinked.

next second.

Ike said "See you tomorrow" to Carrie beside him, then got up expressionlessly and walked towards his girlfriend Chris.

Before Principal Nancy and Ms. Gray could even react, Ike had already left the venue with his girlfriend Chris.

quite a while.

Principal Nancy snapped out of her daze and shook her head helplessly at Ms. Gray beside her.

Ms. Gray glanced thoughtfully at Ike's retreating figure as he walked out the door.

Carrie was also a little confused.

the next day.

Ike sat in the passenger seat, and Chris drove toward the school.

After the car came to a complete stop.

Chris had just gotten out of the car when she saw Carrie White seemingly waiting for someone in the campus parking lot.

Ike got out of the passenger seat and saw it too.

Chris turned to look at Ike and said calmly, "Don't forget to study at the library at ten o'clock."

Ike was taken aback and said, "Hey, I've got my full scholarship."

Chris glanced at Ike and turned to leave.

Ike couldn't help but chuckle.

Since his invitation arrived, Chris has checked the mailbox by the door every morning when she wakes up, but unfortunately, the Stanford invitation has yet to arrive.

Fortunately, Chris didn't have two known competitors at the school yet, otherwise, Ike even thought Chris would go crazy and run to Stanford University.

"Hi."

"Hi."

Ike smiled at Carrie, who seemed a little nervous as she smoothed her hair, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Carrie paused for a moment before saying, "I'm going to New York this afternoon."

Ike laughed and said, "That's great. If anyone bullies you in Xavier, just use your ability. Don't worry about them getting killed."

Carrie nodded somewhat awkwardly.

quite a while.

Ike shrugged and said, "Have a safe trip, and I hope we can meet in New York someday."

Done.

Ike turned and left.

Carrie quickly called for a stop, and only after Ike turned around did she muster the courage to look up at him and ask, "Can I ask why you helped me?"

Ike smiled and said, "Helping a lady who is unhappy in life to be happy again is something every gentleman would do."

Carrie didn't say anything.

Ike smiled, put one hand in his pocket and said to Carrie, "Well then, see you again someday."

Carrie watched Ike turn and walk away in silence.

quite a while.

"……goodbye"

"Goodbye."

"..."

Chapter 114: Confirming Summer Vacation Trip

"Hehe. Ice (Fire Chinese www.bhZw.Cc)"

"...What are you grinning about?"

"..."

Ike snapped out of his daze, looked at Chris sitting opposite him, smiled, and shook his head.

Chris was suspicious.

Ike was just thinking about the dazed look on Carrie's face after he suddenly turned around and said goodbye to her.

He couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Carrie's adorable, blank expression just now.

It's very strange.

Besides not wanting to see the ball turn into a bloodbath, another reason Ike wanted to help Carrie was that Carrie was actually somewhat similar to his half-sister who had been left behind in the countryside.

As for the others?

Absolutely not.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's June, the month that symbolizes graduation.

The afternoon after the ball ended that day, Carrie White went to Westchester ahead of time with Jean Grey, the vice principal of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.

Portia and her scoundrel boyfriend Billy were completely mired in trouble.

After other female classmates became witnesses and testified that Portia had planned and directed the pig theft, the FBI directly indicted Portia in federal court on charges of endangering national security, stealing federal secrets, and attempting to spread a deadly virus.

This is a story that brings joy to some and sorrow to others.

But for the other students in the twelfth grade, with university invitations arriving one after another, even the biggest problems became trivial.

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

"cheers."

"cheers."

Inside a restaurant three blocks away from Elm Street, Ike, Chris, Matt, and Casey were celebrating Chris and Casey's college acceptance letters arriving at 8:55 a.m. that morning.

After a toast to apple-flavored punch.

Matt, wearing a blue t-shirt, put down his cup and looked at Chris and Casey, asking, "When are you planning to report for duty?"

Chris glanced at Ike and then smiled, "Late August, I guess."

Casey chimed in, "Then I'll go there at the end of August too."

Chris and Casey exchanged a glance and smiled at each other.

Yes.

Chris and Casey were both admitted to Stanford, but Chris studied computer science while Casey studied biology.

Matt's eyes lit up and he suggested, "How about the four of us go on a trip together in July? What do you think?"

Ike shrugged and said, "I have no objection."

Chris looked at Matt and smiled, "Have you decided on a place yet?"

Matt asked, "How's Egypt?"

Ike looked up at Matt.

Egypt?

If Ike's memory serves him correctly, the deceased Andrew seems to have mentioned wanting to visit Egypt.

So, Matt is trying to fulfill Andrew's last wish.

But after all, many have died, fallen to the blade of time, and even gods have no chance of resurrection.

Ike nodded nonchalantly, "Egypt is nice, but wouldn't it be too hot to go there at this time of year?"

"Are you afraid of the heat?" Matt smiled.

Ike shook his head and looked at Chris, then said to Matt, "I'm just worried that going out will tan these two ladies' skin."

Chris hugged Ike and said, "It's okay, you can put sunscreen on me later."
