Chapter 1114 Doomed
After confirming that Arielle was San, Noah went up to her and said in delight, “San, we’ve been looking all over for
you. I didn’t expect you to be younger than rumored.”
The corners of Arielle’s lips quirked into a smile, but there were no sparkles of joy in her eyes.
Noah looked over his shoulder at Donovan and urged, “What are you still standing there? Come and welcome your
senior, San.”
At the mention of Arielle being his senior, the latter’s expression darkened further.
The person I have been searching for and waiting for so long actually turned out to be Arielle!
That thought did come to his mind the first time Noah brought up San, but he firmly brushed off the possibility.

Everything he deemed unusual made sense at that moment, such as Maxwell University sending a private jet to
pick Arielle up from the airport, the look Selena gave her, and him seeing her in the cafeteria exclusive to the
professors of Maxwell University.
So the truth had been right in front of me all this while. I was the one who refused to think deeper about it. I was
too afraid to do so.
Cold sweat broke out on Donovan’s forehead as he reeled at the revelation.
San’s the only hope for my thesis, but Arielle will never help me after everything I’ve done to her. I-I am doomed!
Seeing that he was still spacing out, Noah frowned in displeasure. “Donovan, why are you still standing there? Come
over here and greet her.”
With a half-smile, Arielle remarked, “Yeah. Didn’t you say you’ve been searching for me for so long? Why aren’t you
greeting me? Aren’t you going to apologize for your earlier discourtesy?”
Donovan gritted his teeth, trying to curb his temper. The veins on his temple bulged from his effort.
“Mr. Noah, it’s fine. I will think of another way.” He clenched his fists as he spoke.
A skeptical expression took over Noah’s face at Donovan’s rejection. Then, realization dawned upon him when he
recalled the dispute between Donovan and Arielle at the mall entrance.
After going over to Donovan’s side, he whispered, “Yesterday’s matter isn’t a big deal. Just apologize to her
sincerely. Since she’s willing to come all the way here, I’m sure there’s room for you two to make amends. Go and
apologize to her, and I’ll help you out.”
“I can’t, Mr. Noah.” Donovan balled his fists again and explained, “The grudge between us goes beyond yesterday’s
incident.”

If I hadn’t done those things to Arielle before this and persistently shunned her at Jadeborough University, there
might have been a chance for her to help me out. However, there’s no way I can change the past. I… I have put
the final nail in the coffin myself. Since it’s pointless to regret what I’ve done, I might as well retain my pride.
Looking at Arielle coldly, he said, “We’ve got the wrong person. The person I’m searching for isn’t you, and it isn’t
San. You can leave now.”
Noah called out frantically, “Donovan! What’s wrong with you?”
Arielle had gone over that day merely to laugh at Donovan. She did not mind that he ostracized her, but he should
not have bullied her friend. Naturally, there was no way she would let him off so easily.
Judging from his expression, she knew she had gotten her payback.
If that’s the case, I don’t want to linger around and see his ugly mug anymore.
“All right then. I’ll be taking my leave now.”
Arielle arched a brow at Jared and said, “It looks like there’s no free dinner tonight. I’ll bring you somewhere else.”
“Sure.” Jared cast a mocking look at Donovan, then turned on his heels and left with Arielle.
