A Beauty With Multiple Masks
Even though Donovan looked stubborn on the surface, it was merely an act of bravado.
He was aware that if he left Jadeborough University, he had no place to go.
It was impossible for him to go to another university and cultivate three other students who were eligible
to enter Maxwell University
Besides, Maxwell University‘s first–time international enrollment was about to come, and he would not
have sufficient time to do so.
Nonetheless, he did not wish to have a student like Aaron to be in his class, because he knew he would
be unable to control him.
He believed that between him and Aaron, Marcus would choose him over the latter.
To his surprise, however, Marcus did not start panicking as expected. Instead, his face darkened.
Donovan‘s heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling about it.
The next second, Marcus spat out indifferently, “Mr. Baxter, you have done a lot of bad things
but I never blame you or held you accountable. How dare you question me for merely placing a student
into your class? Excuse me, but am I still the principal of Jadeborough University?”
Hearing that, Donovan widened his eyes at Marcus in disbelief.
“Mr. Brown?”
Marcus continued coldly, “Since you chose not to stay in our university, you can leave now. It just so
happens that we are recruiting new lecturers recently, and the number of applicants has exceeded one
thousand. So, if you don‘t want to stay, it will just open up one more place for them. Feel free to think
about it.”
Donovan felt like he was struck by lightning.
What the hell just happened? I‘m a graduate of the Institute of Education from Maxwell University. How
could Marcus choose a student over me?
“Mr. Brown, are you serious? I…”
Ignoring him, Marcus turned toward Aaron and said, “Aaron, from now on, you will be in this preparatory
class. If you have any needs, do inform me.”
Aaron couldn‘t be bothered about the ongoing drama. He simply said, “Sure. May I ask where Arielle
is?”
“Arielle?” Marcus shifted his gaze toward Donovan and asked, “Is Arielle in the class?”
With a complex expression, Donovan replied, “Arielle has applied for leave these two days. So, she is
not present.”
“Oh, I see…” Aaron pondered for a moment and smiled smugly. “All right then. I‘ll wait for her.”
After all, I‘ve regained my freedom. I‘ve got nothing but time.
Marcus then asked with a smile on his face, “So, you know Arielle? She is also one of the top students in
our university.”
“You can say that.” With that, Aaron‘s smile widened. He stroked the hair around his ears, revealing his
black diamond earrings.
Marcus nodded and asked the student council, Christopher, to come over. “Christopher, please take
Aaron on a tour around campus and check which dormitory is empty.”
Under Aaron‘s gaze, Christopher walked out from the crowd. Cold sweat started forming in his palms.
For some reason, he felt uneasy in front of Aaron.
Forget about it…
He gritted his teeth and scratched his head. “Mr. Brown, my Ustranasion is not good enough. Why don‘t
you ask other students to show Aaron around the campus?”
“Then…” Marcus shot a glance at the crowd and locked his gaze on Wendy.
No matter how outstanding Aaron is, he is still a student. It will be inappropriate to ask a lecturer to bring
him around the campus. Hmm, I‘ll let Wendy handle the task then.
