“That is good,” Mason said to Mrs. Hegel, his voice filled with authority. “The information you provide to the university will determine their next course of action, so if I were you, I would produce all the names to speed up the investigation and resolve these issues as quickly as possible,” he added.The head nurse hanging by a thread nodded, her face filled with regret and shame as the scholarship student she had thought was a nobody had done more damage to her career by underestimating him, and even when she wasn't sure the university would pardon her, she was ready to give out the details of the center activities and those who were involved in using the VIP wings to extort money from the student. “I believe Mr. Chalres can handle everything from here,” Mason said, then glanced at the VC assistant.Mr. Charles nodded his head. “I will inform the school management and prepare the necessary information that will be released in the memo,” he replied.Mason nodded his head and turned
Mason and Jeremiah arrived at their location, scanning the front of the administration building, which was flooded with several cars. Jeremiah quickly dismissed the idea of parking his car with the other car due to the difficulty of getting out of the limited space where student and university staff cars were parked.Parking a few meters from the building, Jeremiah turned his head at Mason, who reciprocated his action with a grin.“So where did you park your so-called Bugatti?” he asked, unstrapping his seat belt to follow Mason, who exited the car and wiggled his smart key at his friend.Jeremiah, not surprised to see the object with the Bugatti logo created on it, rolled his eyes and said, “Bro, nowadays, anyone could customize their car keys to look like that for a few dollars,” he said, and at the end of his statement, a smile appeared on Mason's face, making Jeremiah's grin shrink in curiosity. Different thoughts ran through his mind, unable to predict if Mason was pranking him.
Several heads turned in surprise as they watched Cleopatra and Mason step out of their class, together creating sudden whispers among them.“Did Mason just ask Cleopatra out?” A student whispered, causing his friend to give him a stern look.“He didn't ask her out; he told her he needed to speak with her,” the other student responded.“If he isn't going to ask her out, what else does Mason have to discuss with Cleopatra?” Another curious student chips in.Flora, who was seeing the situation, was escalating with whispers. She cleared her throat and said, “Don't tell me you all haven't seen the rich and popular guys that have been begging Cleopatra for a chance?” She inquired, gaining their attention. “I will say this again: Cleopatra is way off that poor thing pretending to be rich.”Her words sent more whispers among the students, who agreed with her words.Meanwhile, Cleopatra, taking the stairs to the fifth floor, pulled out a security car and placed it at the hidden door, which Mas
"Is this a joke to you, Mason?" Cleopatra shrieked at him with a surprised expression. Mason, understanding her sudden confusion, stood to his feet. He reached for Cleopatra's hand, but she shrank away. "What do you mean by a cure?" She added.Mason expected her to give him that reaction, but he didn't expect it would be this hard for him to explain to her that what several professional doctors have diagnosed as having no cure has a cure, and he found it."Calm down, Cleopatra. Listen to me," he said. I know you're shocked to hear such news, but you have to believe me when I say I found a cure for your sister's tumor."Caught off guard by his repeated statement, Cleopatra frowned, her eyes raging with anger. She didn't anticipate Mason, whom she had begun to trust, would be joking around with a situation she found sensitive."You have found the cure for my sister's tumor? How is that possible? How could you say such a thing when you're not a doctor!?" Cleopatra scoffed with confusion,
"What did you say?" Jacob let out a growl, assisted by the stunned expression of the boys behind him. They all considered Jacob among the kings of Aleric University, which girls desire and boys respect due to his parent's wealth and influence, and seeing that a student they consider less and poor, talking back to their friend didn't just irk their nerves. Mason, holding his smile, watched as Jacob boiled in anger. "I thought you would have a bit of sense since you're getting old, but I guess I was wrong; you're still as stupid as before," Mason added, making Jacobs' eyes turn red. His friend in the background gasped, shocked by his reply. "You poor bastard!" Jacob yells, clenching his fist, ready to launch at Mason, but his friends restrict his hand from attacking Mason, who is prepared to get his fist stained. "Calm down, Jacob," the boy among the friends who hadn't spoken since they arrived finally said, attracting everyone's attention, including Mason. "Let go of me; I need
The walk to the news dean's office was short, and when Mason arrived at the building, he made his way to the second floor, where he met a long queue of students standing outside the closed door. He scanned through the crowd and the ID cards worn by students from various departments, and the look on their faces gave him a hint as to why they were there.Shifting his gaze to the corner of the hall, Mason could hear the whisper of some boys, with their eyes fixed at the closed door of the dean's office. “I can't believe I can finally meet her!” One of the boys said excitedly, nodding at his friend, who wore a similar expression.“Damn, I wish she was my lecturer; I would be attending all classes and wouldn't be wasting my time at the dorm,” another one said dreamily. “I just need to get her numbers; that is all. How is my breath?” “Not if I get her number first,” another boy said, making a frown crawl into their faces as they struggled to decide who would be in front of the line.Scann
“What do you mean by her crimes, Mason? Did the formal head nurse do something that is against the university rules?” she asked, her curiosity matching her facial expressions.Mason nodded his head and said, “She didn't just go against the school rules; she went ahead to exploit students by collecting medical fees from them.” His words instantly placed a shock on her face. “That's impossible! She wouldn't do something like that! Do you have any evidence to support such an allegation?” She asked, and Mason shook his head. “That won't be necessary since she was already fired and later confessed to it,” he replied, watching as she tried to wrap her head around the revelation. He didn't need any hint to know that the new dean of students knew the formal head nurse.“How come the investigator I placed on you never mentioned anything about that?” she muttered to herself, and when she raised her gaze to him, she realized Mason had overheard her words.Hearing her statement, Mason grinned a
Mason glanced at his phone, which displayed the location Jeremiah had sent him, and since he didn't want anyone on campus to suspect him, he asked him to park the car away from the engineering faculty. He was about to dial Jeremiah's number when he noticed Cleopatra elegantly exiting the faculty.Several boys' turned their heads in her direction, lingering their gaze around her, while most girls either panned their eyes admiring her or staring at the bouquets on her hands as she made her way to the location of her car. Surprised like everyone else, Mason furrows his brow when he sees Cleopatra slip the flowers into the trash can before she enters the front seat of her car, making a smile appear on his face, remembering the prideful look on Fedrick's face after he had given Cleopatra those flowers.Mason shook his head, and without wasting any more time, he made his way to the location where Jeremiah had parked his car.Mason arrived at the mansion, adjusting his eyes from his phone t
