Chapter 13


    Gritting her teeth in pain, Margaret turned around and leaned against the wall wordlessly. Although


    Jodie was mad at the mentor, she was not the type to make a scene when she was wrong. Standing


    closer to Margaret, she looked toward the still renovating dorm. “Did you know? The dorm over there is


    also funded by Christopher. My family’s riches are nothingpared to his. I even heard that he’s


    visiting our school today…” Margaret did not answer her, for her stomachache was insufferable. Just


    then, the mentor stormed out. “Both of you are quite something, huh? How could you chat when you’re


    being punished? Go and grab your canvas and continue to draw here. You’re done for if you can’t


    submit your homework before ss ends!” Jodie raised her chin as she went to grab her canvas.


    However, Margaret could not move, as she felt her vision getting blurry. When the mentor saw how


    fragile she seemed, the former was angered and pushed thetter. “I told you to get your canvas! Are


    you deaf?” With that, Margaret copsed onto the floor. Jodie was taken aback upon seeing that,


    immediately condemning the mentor, “Why did you push her?” Guilt filled the mentor. “I only pushed


    her lightly. I didn’t know this would happen.” Jodie squatted down to help Margaret up while shouting at


    the mentor, “How could you conduct physical punishment on a student? You don’t deserve to be a


    teacher!” However, the mentor felt she was being wronged. “Is she made from paper? I only gave her a


    slight push, and she immediately dropped to the ground. Jodie, you can’t falsely use someone just


    because you’re from a rich family. And you, Margaret, stop acting! Who you’re trying to fool by being so


    delicate?” Themotion in the corridor attracted the attention of a group of people walking over. The


    principal, who was leading the group, was enraged. I told them that Christopher was paying a visit


    today, yet this happened! Meanwhile, Christopher was calmly staring at Margaret. When he looked


    toward the mentor, though, his expression darkened. Margaret muttered weakly, “Stop arguing… I’m


    fine. Help me take my canvas, Jo.” Suppressing her anger, Jodie returned to the ssroom. When the


    mentor saw that, she pushed Margaret again out of anger. “Aren’t you so dainty that you’ll get blown


    away by the wind? Let’s see if you’ll fall again this time.” The force exerted this time was significantly


    greater than thest. Margaret felt pain engulfing her as she cked out, her body swaying as she


    toppled to the ground. Before hitting the floor, she was pulled into a strong embrace, and a familiar


    scent hit her nose. “Christopher…” she muttered, barely making out his tightened jaw and angered


    expression. Before she could ask why he suddenly appeared, she lost consciousness in his arms.


    Meanwhile, the mentor turned pale upon noticing the terrifying auraing from the man. The man did


    not utter a word, proceeding to leave with the woman in his arms. His expression was stony, and it


    seemed that he would explode with rage at any second. Rushing over, the principal red at the


    mentor. “Why do you always make things difficult for me?” When Jodie came out, she saw that a man


    was carrying Margaret with the principal following them, leaving behind a pale-faced mentor. Sensing


    something terrible had happened, she shoved the mentor. “Just you wait!” Then, she quickly caught up


    to them. Christopher was sitting on the bench outside the hospital’s emergency room with a slightly


    lowered head. He was exuding a cold aura, leaving dead silence around him. The principal and Jodie


    were pacing anxiously beside him. Suddenly, Christopher spoke. “The mentor of this college is


    something else, isn’t she?”Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.
