EXPLODING POPULARITY

NATHANIEL returned to Polarise Academy after his audience with his father, the king.

He knew that Eclaire was brought to the school clinic. But according to his "eyes," the Luna went to the dean's office. Hence, he went straight there.

[I missed her, though.]

When he arrived at the dean's office, his uncle was already cleaning up his table.

"Would you like some tea, my dear nephew?" Uncle Jin Crawford asked, smiling slyly at him. "I'll brew it for you."

"Thanks, but you don't have to, Uncle," Nathaniel said, then he sat on the accent chair without being invited to. He didn't have to since he was the Crown Prince. Hence, he had a higher position than the dean of Polarise Academy. "I heard Eclaire was here earlier."

"Oh, so you're calling the lady by her first name now?"

"Only in front of people close to me," he said. "But maybe I should get used to addressing her intimately in front of an audience from now on?"
