Reign of the Heir Chapter 176
An old man wearing glasses, with graying hair and beard, was focused on reading a journal on his laptop screen. He didn't realize that there were two pairs of eyes watching him."Professor."The old man furrowed his brows. The voice that entered his ears sounded familiar. He looked back to confirm it."Jack?" A smile spread across his wrinkled face. He stood up and opened his arms."Professor Jim." Jack hugged his favorite professor warmly.A flash of memories from the past popped into Jack's head. When Professor Jim recommended him to other lecturers. Because of that, Jack often got extra work from the lecturers, such as tidying up documents, collecting data, and so on. And he earned extra money from those jobs. More than that, Jack also gained a lot of new knowledge indirectly.Jack also hasn't forgotten how Professor Jim optimistically told him, and the rest of the faculty, that Jack Marshall would one day achieve great success."Good to see you again, Jack. Look at you now, you're

"I don't know if anyone is more of a fan of yours than I am," Claire whispered."Believe me, there was an idol aura in me from the start. It's just that not everyone can see it."Claire pursed her lips. As a reward, Jack hugged her.The few people who saw them were whispering. It was unclear what they were talking about, but it was clear that envious expressions could be seen on their faces.Until finally those who were still walking after Professor Jim arrived at the campus auditorium. However, when they had just passed through the main door, they were met again by Elena Stuart.'This annoying woman again!' Claire grumbled inwardly."Professor Jim, did you bring Jack and his girlfriend here too?" Elena asked with one eyebrow raised."Let's sit over there." Professor Jim spoke without answering Elena's question, even acting as if he hadn't heard or seen the young lecturer.Elena snorted in annoyance. She felt slighted. Not taking it for granted, she said, "Professor Jim, I respect you

Meanwhile, with her anxiety reaching for the sky, Elena looked confused in the main parking lot of the University of Carnaby. She was rattling her waist beside her Lamborghini Egoista."Where exactly is Young Master Roodenburg now? No Lamborghini car has entered the campus other than this one. This must be Young Master Roodenburg's car."Elena was even more convinced because the car had the Roodenburg family logo on it."But where is the young master? There's no way I'm asking Mr. Matthew again. I can't look foolish in front of high-class people, especially in front of those who are related to Young Master." Elena shook her head before holding her own head.Actually, Elena had already prepared a special place for the Young Master. It was truly a very exclusive place with everything in it only being of the best quality. She had rented special furniture for today alone. Not only that, Elena had also paid a barista to brew premium luwak coffee for the young master to impress him. Word on

'Come, come, come out quickly. Show yourself, Young Master,' Elena's inner self couldn't stop talking. She even clenched her fists in excitement waiting for a figure to come out from inside the Lamborghini Egoista."Finally," Elena hissed when she saw someone from inside the car lower his leg.It turned out to be the legs of a man wearing long pants and loafers.Noting the model and brand of shoes the figure was wearing, Elena smiled broadly. These were definitely not just any shoes that could be obtained by paying a low price.Elena knew that the man was wearing limited edition branded shoes of number one quality. If Elena's memory was correct, there were only seven pairs of such shoes in the world. So, there was no way those shoes could be owned by a middle-class person, even a man from the upper class might not be able to get them."I believe, he is indeed Young Master Roodenburg." Elena made the guards beside her turn their heads several times towards her.The guards still did not

With quickened and lengthened steps, Elena entered the main door of the college auditorium. Her chest wanted to burst with anger.'Damn it! That loser is such an asshole! How dare he go this far? I didn't expect Jack to do something like this. He ruined everything. He's such a devil!' There were many expletives in her head directed at Jack.So, when the woman got closer to the row of invitation chairs, her eyes searched the back area to find Jack's figure. She knitted her eyebrows together to make her vision sharper. The auditorium was very large. Elena had to be more careful to find what she was looking for.At that moment, the chancellor of the college was delivering his speech. Obviously, Elena was swearing incessantly because she should be sitting quietly and proudly right now. The college rector would surely praise her for organizing the event so well, for entertaining the special guests so satisfactorily, and for being the person most responsible for such an important and histor

Jack frowned as he looked behind Matthew. His eyes caught the woman Matthew was talking about."How about you ask Elena directly?" Jack waved his hand. "Hello, Elena!"Claire looked at her boyfriend intently with both eyes wide open. An expression of astonishment was clearly visible on her face.How could Jack greet an annoying woman so kindly?Meanwhile, although Jack didn't look angry or annoyed, Elena's face suddenly became as pale as paper, as if she had just seen the creepiest ghost. Not only that, Elena's heart was beating so fast that her chest trembled.Elena stood still with a complicated facial expression. She didn't know what to do or say when Matthew turned around and looked at her.The spacious auditorium filled with many people felt so cramped and silent, as if it was a vacuum that made it difficult for her to breathe."Miss Stuart, what a coincidence that you are here. I would like to ask first, the exclusive room you spoke of for Young Master Roodenburg, is it reserved

Matthew was wide-eyed at Claire's statement. She gave Elena a sharp look, making her even more frightened."Mr. Matthew, we're standing here because Elena won't let us sit down. Professor Jim, Jack's lecturer, has agreed to ask the equipment department to get chairs for us, but Elena forbade it on the grounds that it violates procedure. I don't know which procedure she's referring to, maybe the procedure of embarrassing people! She's so talented at it!" Claire vented her anger.She had tried hard to be quiet, even very quiet, unlike her usual self who never stopped talking."You know Mr. Matthew, this woman has insulted Jack with very harsh words. If Jack hadn't warned me to control myself since yesterday, I would have slapped Elena hard across the face." Claire raised her right hand. She had scared Elena!But that wasn't enough, Claire continued, "I'm also thinking of punching her bloody lips to make her stop talking. Then, I would pull her hair out of her head. Seriously, I thought

Elena knew that she had no chance to defend herself. The wrong she had done was too obvious, and it was unfortunate that Jack, as Young Master Roodenburg, was both the victim and the main witness.So how could she evade or make excuses to make her not look like a bad woman?Elena lowered her gaze, staring at Jack's hand. Exactly, she thought of apologizing by holding that hand, kissing it like a holy hand."Young master, please forgive me. I know the wrong I have done is very, very great, and perhaps unforgivable. My behavior has gone too far. I have done terrible things to you, even though you have always been kind to me. Young Master is indeed a very kind person. You have the heart of an angel. As for me, I am very bad, even worse than the devil."Elena deliberately praised Jack while humbling herself. She hoped to flatter Jack, so that he would forgive her mistakes. She babbled on and on, revealing the good things Jack did, then revealing the bad things Elena did without any regard
