Chapter 1102 Unworthy
Under Donovan’s cold stares and heavy duress, Terry’s dorm mate had to fess up. “Terry’s gone to look for Boss… I
mean Arielle.”
Donovan’s furrow just got impossibly tauter in that instant.
First Trisha, then Wendy; both of them have been denied their eligibility to undertake the examinations one after the
other because of Arielle. Now even Terry seemed to have been cajoled by her too. What exactly is she up to? Is she
that determined to see to it that I won’t be able to graduate? Am I really such a fixation for her, or is she having a
go at me because she wants to get my attention?
“Mr. Baxter? Mr. Baxter?”
Donovan was lost in his own fantasies. It took the students yelling for him to jolt back to reality.
“Ahem…” Donovan coughed. “Per my last instructions, listen to the local broadcast and jot down as much of it as
you can. I’m going to try to get in touch with Terry.”
When he finished, he walked out of the dorm and rang up his missing student, only to have the latter hang up on
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthim outright the moment the call connected.
At this moment, Terry was seated across from the trio of Arielle, Trisha, and Jared in one of the cafeterias within
Maxwell University.
When he saw that the call came from Donovan, he did not even have to think twice before he dropped it.
The identity of the caller on the phone display was picked up by Arielle’s keen eyes.
“Why didn’t you answer?” she asked.
“Based on what I saw from that incident outside the doors of the shopping mall, that man isn’t fit to be a lecturer!”
replied a disgruntled Terry.
What he had witnessed back then convinced him that not only was Donovan shielding Wendy, the former was
willing to bring Arielle down and sacrifice Trisha to that end.
How could someone who forsakes his own student be fit to consider himself an educator? He’s not even qualified
enough to be considered human!
Arielle shook her head. “No matter what, he’s still a lecturer at Jadeborough University. You still need to at least
keep things civil between him and yourself.”
“I refuse to!” Terry declared his resolve between gritted teeth. “I’ve made up my mind that I’ll pass up on taking the
exams in order to deny him his academic certificate!”
“No!” Arielle’s expression grew abruptly severe.
Jared, too, expressed his disapproval. “Don’t ruin your own future for someone like that. He’s not worth it.”
Being the less eloquent one, Trisha could only contribute by earnestly nodding along.
Though Donovan had clearly quit on her, Terry was not in the same situation. He could jolly well carry on as though
nothing had happened, or at least until the examinations were over.
“But… should he manage to attain the academic certificate, it would only bring harm to even more students at his
hands.”
“You don’t have to worry about that.” Arielle cast Terry a reassuring look. “I won’t allow him to graduate so long as
I’m around.”
“Why do you say that?” replied Terry doubtfully. “Donovan will be able to secure his graduation so long as he
manages to get three students in.”
“Do you know who’s responsible for the thesis defense for the students who have deferred their graduation?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmArielle asked smilingly.
Since Terry was slow to catch up, Jared beside him responded first. “Don’t tell me that it’s you, Boss?”
“Bingo.” Arielle affirmed with a nod.
The other three gawped in concert, especially Terry, whose eyeballs nearly popped.
“You… Seriously?”
“When have I ever deceived you guys?” Arielle retorted breezily.
Terry became stupefied for a moment there.
I always knew that Boss is a badass, but this is just over the top ridiculous. What right have I to be in the same class
as her? I’m unworthy of this!
A powerful tingle crept up the trio’s entire being.
Terry could not help but gloat, “To think that the one who would decide the fate would be one of the students who
joined his preparatory class in the most glamorous manner possible, on top of being the one he least fancied. Bet
Donovan never saw this one coming.”
Jared narrowed his eyes at Terry.
