274 Legal Guardian

(Jane’s PoV)

Turning my head to look at the source of the voice, I was startled as a body hit mine in a hug. Excited squeals pierced my eardrums as my body shook the way her body moved.

“It’s really you! I’m so glad you came back! Where have you been? You’ve never contacted me after you took a leave. How dare you!”

“Mi-Mia, easy!” It wasn’t easy to talk with her arms encircling my neck in a tight hug.

“Let me see you! You’re getting taller! No wonder it didn’t feel as comfy as it used to be.” Mia pushed herself a length away and looked at me from top to bottom repeatedly. I could only laugh helplessly at her comment.Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com

The shy and nice Mia turned so chatty in a year time, what did I miss?

“Welcome back, Jane. Mia has been missing you this whole time.” Senior Dino, looking more mature than before, greeted me with a warm smile. He approached me calmly, unlike his old self who would jump on people casually.

Seeing the both of them truly brought back some memories. I wonder what changed them?

“Thank you, Senior. It’s nice to be back again.”

.....

“Hey, you chose to speak to him first? I asked you first, why didn’t you respond to me?” Mia protested with a pout.

“She would, if you let her go first and asked your questions one by one.” Sanji pried her hands from my body forcefully with a threatening smile on his handsome face.

Mia looked too stunned to protest and the way she was looking at her hands while stepping back from the force was too comical. Her eyes went to look at her hands to Sanji then to me repeatedly in confusion. Was it hard to get the clue?

First, all the participants needed to sign an agreement that they would obey the rules in the hunting ground and camping site. Any immoral actions and bringing harms upon others would result in the suspension from the Dean and would be blacklisted from the hunting ground and camping site.

Second, all the participants needed to submit the form of participation with the sign of their legal guardian or parents. It sounded childish since most of these people were old enough to mind their own business, but since it was an activity for students, it was for the sites’ administration.

Third, all the participants needed to attach a letter from a legal medical institution which stated that the participant was in good health and able to follow the whole courses.

The deadline to submit the registration form was today before noon. It was just a couple hours away.

“Do you want to join in the fun?” Sanji asked when I unconsciously looked at him.

“Of course. But, who will sign the form for me?” I mean, both my parents were having their second honeymoon in England and I didn’t want to disturb their time.

“I am your legal guardian here, don’t you know it? Of course I will sign it for you.” Sanji pointed at his face with a matter of fact voice.

I already knew that he was my fiancé, and my father knew him a lot longer than I knew him, but when did my father appoint him to be my guardian here?

“You must be wondering when I became one.” He smirked. “After we rescued your father, I had a talk with him and he asked me to take care of you.”

I blinked my eyes in disbelief. They had a secret talk behind me? I only knew the situation after I rescued him was pretty much in chaos. I only knew my father had a talk with Tom, but with Sanji? When did it happen?

“Don’t overthink it. Let’s get you registered before they close the registration.” Sanji pulled me into the Students Council’s room and got me a registration form in no time. He was taking advantage of his position as a lecturer to get me registered as soon as possible while the others were taking a long line to submit theirs.

Of course, there were nasty stares being directed at me but I didn’t care about it at all. The only stares that I felt conscious was the stare from Senior Mario when he saw Sanji signed the part for the guardian.

He looked like he had something he wanted to ask me, but at the same time he felt like we were not familiar to each other to ask anything. It was strange. Even though I wasn’t that close to him, I was sure we sat down and talked to each other more than I did with other people. Why did he act all weird now?

“You... Have we met before?”
