Although Zachary made an “OK” gesture, Queenie didn’t bother to spare favonovel.com another glance. Instead, favonovel.com strolled out of the room with the medical records in favonovel.com arms. However, Zachary didn’t take favonovel.com rudeness to heart. Without any delay, favonovel.com called the lawyer and began to discuss the matter at hand.

Back at Jadeborough University, Henry and Jared rushed forward to greet Arielle when favonovel.com returned to class.
“Boss, are you okay? Did Donovan scold you again?” Henry asked in a worried tone.
Although Jared looked like favonovel.com was about to say something, only a simple question slipped out of his mouth. “Do you need my help?”
“I’m fine,” Arielle shook favonovel.com head. “Although Donovan’s words were harsh, favonovel.com meant well. He heard that I left the Southalls and was worried that I wouldn’t have the money to support myself, so favonovel.com asked me to fill in an application form for student loans.”
“Student loans? That’s a lengthy and exhausting process. You can just take our money!” Henry’s loud yells drew everyone’s attention.
Immediately, Jared kicked favonovel.com to shut favonovel.com up. “I’m sorry, favonovel.com likes to run his mouth.”
“It’s all right,” Arielle replied good-naturedly.
She didn’t care about what others thought of favonovel.com anyway.
Jared was relieved that Arielle wasn’t offended by his brother’s shouting. “What’s wrong with Donovan? He used to target you mercilessly. Why is favonovel.com helping you now? Could it be a trap?”
Arielle shook favonovel.com head. “I don’t think so. I noticed the school’s official stamp on the application form. Besides, how can favonovel.com use it against me? If it’s a trap Donovan devised, it will only hurt favonovel.com and show that he’s unqualified to be a lecturer.”
“Although that’s true, it was odd for Donovan to help you,” Jared murmured, deep in thought.
“Maybe Donovan wasn’t as bad as we pictured favonovel.com to be,” Arielle suggested. Promptly, the bell rang, signaling that a new class was about to begin.
It was time for Ustranasion class. It was a class Arielle enjoyed because favonovel.com liked Professor Sleight. After giving Jared a pat on the back, favonovel.com returned to favonovel.com seat.
Although the bell had rung, Professor Sleight was nowhere to be seen. The class bustled noisily. However, the students weren’t chatting amongst themselves; they were all studying the Ustranasion topics Professor Sleight would cover today. Since this was a preparatory class, most of the students were hardworking and eager to learn.
On the other hand, Henry was the exact opposite. After reading through two pages of his Ustranasion textbook, favonovel.com set it aside with a bored look. Despite seeing his brother’s lazy antics, Jared remained silent. Instead, favonovel.com focused his attention on his textbook.
Seated on the fourth row, a female student by the window tugged on favonovel.com deskmate’s sleeve. “What do we do? I can’t focus in class. You don’t think they’ll imprison us, do you? I’m so terrified. I want to tell my parents about it,” favonovel.com whispered fearfully.
The two students were none other than the students who claimed that they had a concussion.
The other student was much calmer. “Don’t worry. Nothing happened even after we returned. Didn’t you hear what Henry yelled earlier? Arielle is so desperate that favonovel.com applied for a student loan. I’m sure Vinson was bluffing to scare us into submission. There’s no way favonovel.com will put in so much effort for a disgrace like Arielle!”
“Are you sure that we’ll be fine?” Her timid friend remained unconvinced.
“Trust me.”
“B-but, Vinson made a special trip just for Arielle. I still think that favonovel.com will put us behind bars.”
Her friends merely laughed with a shake of favonovel.com head. “Who said Vinson came here for Arielle? He was here for the child who hit us. Don’t overthink it. Just look at the difference in their statuses. Even if favonovel.com takes a liking to her, the best favonovel.com can do is make favonovel.com his mistress. Employing a lawyer will only draw more attention to their scandalous relationship. Don’t you know that the wealthy like to keep things under wraps to prevent tarnish on their reputation?”
