Chapter 113
Elijah was invited to Cloudcrest High School as an honored alum to give a talk, all thanks to Lysander.
Over the years, his perfume brand had gained international prestige, and naturally, his fame in the
country was sky-high.
When the news spread that the founder of this internationally renowned perfume brand wasing to
the school for a talk, the guys were chill about it, but the girls were all over it.
On the night of the speech, the girls who were waiting to give Elijah flowers even blocked the school''s
entrance.
Not only were the students from Cloudcrest High School present, but girls from other schools also
flocked here upon hearing that Elijah wasing. Just for a glimpse of him.
Among all the girls in the school, only the girls of ss Eighteen were the exception. They were all
busy studying and had no ns to attend the lecture.
However, Charlotte was still shocked by the bustling crowd in front of the school auditorium. She said
to Faye, "Elijah''seback this time has caused quite a fuss. You might not know, but he once had a
thing for Arabe, but she was totally not into him. Now Arabe''s reputation has hit rock bottom while
he is making big waves. I wonder if Arabe will regret it."
Before Faye had a chance to respond, a coldugh came from behind.
"Ha."
They turned around, and it was Arabe.
She looked at Charlotte and Faye with a smirk and then headed towards the auditorium.
"She''s such a fake saint. She moves like a ghost." Charlotte mumbled under her breath after her.
"Forget it. Let''s go back to the ssroom and hit the books." Faye pulled Charlotte away.
...
School auditorium.
Vivienne could have chosen not to attend Elijah''s speech, but she was curious about his intentions, so
she came anyway.
As soon as she sat down, Percival plopped down next to her and naturally took her hand.
Vivienne was initially engrossed in her phone and didn''t react, but after a while, she realized that she
seemed to have gotten used to Percival''s hand-holding. When he held her hand, she didn''t feel
ufortable or repulsed. In fact, she felt like it was right, as if they were meant to be that way.
She was startled by her own thoughts and abruptly tried to pull her hand away.
Her action was so sudden that Percival didn''t react in time and got scratched by her nails.
Both of them were stunned.
Vivienne looked at the scratch on Percival''s palm and felt guilty.
Because of this guilt, when Percival took her hand again with a pitiful face, she couldn''t refuse and
even felt helpless.
"Heh."
A coldugh came from behind.
Vivienne turned around, and saw that Arabe was sitting two rows behind her.
Even though Dr. Caleb confessed his crimes and Arabe was released due to ack of evidence, it
was a fact that she had framed Vivienne.
Almost all the students in the school had seen the video from the hospital room that day. Arabe, out
of jealousy, attempted to kidnap Vivienne and even tried to kill her with a knife.
Even though this incident did not physically harm Vivienne, and Arabe got off the hook because other
people took the me for her other crimes, the fact that she could turn into a killer at any moment
frightened everyone.
Therefore, other students did not want to have anything to do with her, including Coral, who once
considered her a close friend. Even though the auditorium was packed, nobody was sitting near
Arabe.
When Vivienne looked at her, Arabeughed coldly as her eyes greedilynded on Percival. "You
and Mr. Ellington seem to be very close."
However, today, Vivienne felt annoyed to see Arabe staring at Percival. It was as if something that
belonged to her was being coveted.
At this moment, she didn''t realize that this was the possessiveness she had for Percival.
"Vivienne, let''s move. This ce is a bit filthy." Percival didn''t even nce at Arabe. He pulled
Vivienne away and changed seats.
Upon hearing what Percival said, Arabe''s face twisted, but she quickly calmed down and quietly
waited there.
She had no room for mistakes.
But given the chance, she would snatch Percival back from Vivienne.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
That man was supposed to be hers.
Soon, the students in the auditorium weed Elijah on stage with thunderous apuse.
As soon as Elijah appeared, the girls in the audience immediately let out screams. “He’s so
handsome!”
Elijah on stage obviously heard this, and a smug smile appeared on his face. He enjoyed being adored
by the crowd.
After delivering a passionate speech, he suddenly said, "Today, I came to Cloudcrest High School to
take a fellow alum as my student."
The auditorium quieted down instantly at this statement, followed by gasps of surprise. People knew
that many had wanted to be Elijah''s student in the past, but Elijah had always refused, saying it wasn''t
the right time.
Now, he was openly announcing that he was taking an apprentice.
Everyone was guessing who this lucky person that Elijah had his eyes on might be.
Everyone knew that Elijah was not only the internationally famous Perfume Prince but also a student of
Master Q.
To be epted as his student was like having a connection with Master Q.
As long as this student wasn''t aplete dud, it would be a piece of cake to make them famous.
This student was destined for great things if they continued on the path of a perfumer.
While sitting in the audience, a smug smile spread across Arabe''s face upon hearing Elijah''s
deration.
The next moment, Elijah, mic in hand, announced the name of the lucky student. "The student I''m
going to take under my wing is Arabe."
"What?!"
"How could it be Arabe?"
"Has Elijah lost his marbles? Why would he choose someone with such bad behavior as a student?"
"Elijah must have just gotten back from abroad. He doesn''t know what Arabe has done. She''s fooled
him!"
The auditorium was filled with amotion as everyone''s gaze shifted to Arabe. At Elijah''s signal,
she rose from her seat and nonchntly made her way to the stage.
After seeing the bewildered expressions on the faces of the students below, Arabe''s heart was filled
with satisfaction and joy.
This was something she and Elijah had nned in advance. Even though they had pinned the me
on Dr. Caleb, her previous false usations against Vivienne were still undeniable.
To wipe the te clean of her past mistakes, she needed to overshadow them with greater glory.
If she could be the one and only student of the Perfume Prince, her past errors could be chalked
up to youthful ignorance.
The only thing people would remember would be the fact that she was about to be a perfumer
with boundless potential.
Upon hearing the doubtful voices of the students below, Elijah raised his hand to quiet everyone down.
"Please settle down. I haven''t been hoodwinked by Arabe. I know she''s made some mistakes in the
past."
