Chapter 6 - "The One Who Came for Her"

Jacob arrives at the school. As soon as he steps inside, William greets him warmly and extends his hand.

"How are you, Jacob?" William asks.

"I'm fine," Jacob replies with a polite smile. "How are you?"

"I'm doing well too," William says. "I'm really sorry, Jacob. We couldn't manage the event today. Actually, the children have their exams."

Jacob shakes his head gently. "Oh, that's completely fine. I actually wanted to discuss something with you."

William looks at him curiously. "What is it?"

"Please come," Jacob says calmly. "Let's sit down and talk comfortably."

The scene shifts.

Now the focus turns to Melissa and Julia.

Julia comes running toward Melissa, her face glowing with excitement.

"Do you even know who's here?" Julia asks, slightly out of breath.

Melissa looks confused. "Who?"

"Your admirer—Jacob," Julia says teasingly. "I think he came here just to see you."

Melissa smiles softly. "Yes, you might be right," she replies. "Otherwise, why would he plan an event during exam time?"

"Come on," Julia says excitedly. "Let's go and see him."

"Not now," Melissa replies gently. "The exams are about to start. We'll see him after the exam."

With that, both of them head toward their examination halls.

The scene shifts to William's office, where Jacob and William are seated across from each other.

"Actually," Jacob begins thoughtfully, "I saw your post yesterday. I noticed that the student who topped this year is quite impressive. I want to personally give them an award—along with a scholarship and some gifts."

William smiles in approval. "That's a wonderful idea. I'll definitely try my best to make it happen."

"I'd like to do it today," Jacob adds. "I stay very busy most of the time."

"Yes, I understand," William nods. "I'll announce it right away—that the top student will receive a reward from Sir Jacob."

"One more thing," Jacob says calmly. "I want to give the award to the Top 1 student personally. They must have worked extremely hard. All the major gifts will be for them. You can give the awards to the Top 2 students."

"Of course," William replies. "No problem at all."

"I'll wait here," Jacob says. "Even if it takes four hours, it's fine. I can manage my work. I just need this room to be empty when the Top 1 student arrives."

"As you wish, sir," William says respectfully.

An announcement echoes through the school corridors.

"Attention, students," the teacher announces.

"Among all of you, the student who secured Top 1 position this year will receive an award, a scholarship, and gifts from Sir Jacob. After the exams, please report immediately to the Principal's Office."
