<Chapter> chapter029 A Fluttering Feeling? </Chapter>"After being embraced by SharonWhen Sharon's arms wrapped around him, Eric's body tensed, perhaps due to a surge of nervousness, Eric's body stiffened.
Honestly, Eric. The truth was still a virgin. Although he had, despite having been datingin a relationship with his ex-girlfriend Wendy for two years, he hadn't Eric remained untouched by the intimacy of a woman's touch. He had never even kissed herWendy, let alone anything else.
At this more.In that moment, Sharon also realized what had happened.
""Ah!"" Blushing with embarrassment, Sharon let out a scream and quickly let go of Eric.seemed to grasp the situation. Her face turned rosy.
""I... I was just too flushed a deep shade of red, and she let out a small gasp of surprise. Hastily, she released Eric from her hold. "I... I was just so happy, so... so..."" With a flushed face, Sharon tried to explain, but she stuttered and couldn't clarify her words.
""..." Sharon stammered, her face aflame as she struggled to articulate her feelings. "Happy, I understand,"" Eric chuckled.
""," Eric replied, a chuckle escaping his lips.Sharon's smile was radiant as she responded, "Yeah, I really didn't expect to easily secure a sponsorship from the Power Group so easily. It feels like I'm dreaming."" Sharon wore a captivating smile.
."For some reasonreasons he couldn't quite pinpoint, seeing Sharon so happy and cheerful madeelated filled Eric feel happy too.
""with a sense of joy. "I told you it wouldn't be as difficult as you imagined,""," Eric said with a, his own smile.
mirroring Sharon's. Of course, it wasn'thadn't been difficult because Eric had orchestrated everything arranged.
Otherwise, if Eric was still the poor kid he used to be, . If he probably wouldn't were still the impoverished boy he once was, he doubted he would have even have been able to step foot insideaccompany Sharon into the company with Sharon.
At this moment, Sharon suddenly.Suddenly, Sharon's expression turned serious. She looked at Eric, her eyes filled with a serious expression and asked,
""questions. "Eric, I can't help but feel that everything went too smoothly. It's so easy that it's making me wonder if it has something to do with you.""
."As an executive member of the school's student union, Sharon had triedattempted to secure sponsorshipsponsorships several times before, and she. She knew how difficult it was. Even getting the immense effort it took to secure even a few tens of thousands of dollars required enormous effort.
Unless one exchanged favors for sponsorship, which was relatively easier. . Some girls from the external relations department didhad found it this wayeasier to exchange favors for sponsorships, but Sharon would never dostoop to such a thing.
Butlevels. However, this time, securing a sponsorship wasfelt even easier than exchanging favorsthat, especially considering it was from a super conglomerate like the Power Group.

She pondered that since it wasto consider Eric's involvement. Since it was his idea to approach the Power Group, could his involvementhe be the reason behind such anthe effortless sponsorship?
"""Why would it have anything to do with me? Look at me, do I look like I have any connection with the Power Group?""?" Eric said with a laugh.
""responded, his laughter light."Okay,""," Sharon nodded.
conceded, her gaze thoughtful. She carefully considered it and realized that given Eric's family situation, it was indeed unlikely for him to have any connection with the Power Group. Perhaps she was worrying too much.
overthinking.Then, Sharon looked up at Eric and said in a, her tone flirtatious tone, ""as she said, "Eric, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the courage to seek sponsorship from the Power Group, let alone secure it.""
"".""If you want to thank me, just treat me to a meal,""," Eric grinned.
""replied, grinning."No problem,""," Sharon nodded with aresponded, her smile.
"" warm."Alright, let's head back to school now. It's time to settle the score with Luis,""," Eric revealed asaid, his smile playful smile.
""."He will never expect that we secured sponsorship so quickly, and that too, from the Power Group,""," Sharon exclaimed with, her excitement.
"" palpable."That's exactly what I wanted,"" Eric's," Eric said, his smile grew stronger.

With an icy edge to her voice, Sharon said, ""declared, "Luis, you're mistaken. We have The sponsorship is already secured.""What? You've secured the sponsorship.""

Luis, of course, couldn't believe that they could raise?" Luis's disbelief was palpable. The idea of raising two hundred thousand dollars in such a short time. Itspan seemed unrealutterly fantastical to him.
"""I know you won't believe it. It's okay. Let me show you,""," Eric said with, a smile.
Following that, Eric playing on his lips.He placed the suitcase he washe'd been holding ononto the table.
He opened, flipping the suitcase, revealinglatches open to reveal twenty stacks of crisp US dollars, twenty in total.

"""Luis, how is it? You should know whether it's real or fake.""," Eric said withtaunted, a smirk.
"" on his face."Where did you guys get this amount of money from?""?" Luis asked with a, his face pale face.
.Sharon responded, """Of course, it was obtained through a sponsorship.""
"".""No! Impossible! Just the two of you, why would someone give you $200,000 in sponsorship! I think you stole it or robbed someone!""!" Luis roared loudly.
""in disbelief."Steal? Rob? Haha, it sounds so easy when you say it.""," Eric sneered.
Sharon also said, ""added, "Luis, we have reached a sponsorship agreement with the Power Group, and this money is sponsored by the Power Group!""
""!""What? The Power Group?""
""?" Luis's voice was sharp with disbelief. "How is that possible! The Power Group is such a powerful existenceentity, why would they help you? I think you're just bragging!"" Luis's voice became sharp.

This was the The mighty Power Group. To secure their sponsorship for sponsoring their school's sports event? This was something he had never dared to dream of.
The most startling thing isfact that, from assigning the task to now, only they had accomplished such a feat in a mere three hours have passed. It's so shocking to accomplish something so incredible in such a short time and attractwas astounding. The thought of attracting such a powerful corporation. Luis couldn't help but shudder at the thought.
"" in such a short time sent shivers down Luis's spine."How did we manage to do it? It doesn't seem to concern you, right? Besides, didn't you say that the sponsor must be a big company? I think the Power Group is big enough,""," Eric said with, a half-smile.

Although he found it unbelievable and surreala mask of displeasure. Despite his disbelief, he had to admitacknowledge the fact that it had come to pass. At that moment, areality of the situation. A brilliant idea suddenly struck Luis.
