Although Zachary made an “OK” gesture, Queenie didn’t bother to spare him another glance. Instead, she strolled out of the room
with the medical records in her arms.
However, Zachary didn’t take her rudeness to heart. Without any delay, he called the lawyer and began to discuss the matter at
hand.
Back at Jadeborough University, Henry and Jared rushed forward to greet Arielle when she returned to class.
“Boss, are you okay? Did Donovan scold you again?” Henry asked in a worried tone.
Although Jared looked like he was about to say something, only a simple question slipped out of his mouth. “Do you need my
help?”
“I'm fine.” Arielle shook her head. “Although Donovan's words were harsh, he meant well. He heard that | left the Southalls and

“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 him to shut him up. “I'm sorry, he likes to run his mouth.”
“It's all right,” Arielle replied good-naturedly. She didn’t
care about what others thought of her 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 he helping you now? Could it be a trap?”
Arielle shook her head. “I don’t think so. | noticed the school’s official stamp on the application form. Besides, how can he use it
against me? If it's a trap Donovan devised, it will only hurt him 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 him to be,” Arielle suggested. Promptly, the bell rang, signaling that a new class
was about to begin.
It was tfor Ustranasion class. It was a class Arielle enjoyed because she liked Professor Sleight. After giving Jared a pat on the
back, she returned to her 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, he set it aside with a bored look.
Despite seeing his brother's lazy antics, Jared remained silent. Instead, he focused his attention on his textbook.

Seated on the fourth row, a female student by the window tugged on her deskmate’s sleeve. “What do we do? | can’t focus in
class. You don’t think they'll imprison us, do you? I'm so terrified. | want to tell my parents about it,” she 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 she applied for a student loan. I'm sure Vinson was bluffing to scare us into submission. There's
no way he 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. | still think that he will put us behind bars.”
Her friends merely laughed with a shake of her head. “Who said Vinson chere 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 he takes a liking
to her, the best he can do is make her 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?”
