Chapter 684 A Junior Member
Styre University instructed the students in theboratory to keep quiet and suppressed the news by
forbidding anyone from discussing it. However, the truth couldn’t be hidden for long. No one dared to
discuss it on the forum, but the students had already been privately arguing about it. Many people had
witnessed Catherine being taken away in public, which only added to the already controversial topic
and put Catherine in the spotlight.
Rumors even spread that Catherine was not Eskanese but a spy from Rexinheim. The gossip
continued to escte, and even Isabe was feeling uneasy.
When Amelia returned, Isabe immediately stood up, closed the dorm room door, and pulled Amelia
aside to sit down.
“Amelia, tell me the truth. Is Catherine really from Rexinheim?” Isabe asked.
Amelia had been asked about it all day. All kinds of people had been pestering her to find out about
Catherine. She was getting really annoyed by all the attention. Little did she expect that when she
returned to the dormitory, Isabe would also question her.
Amelia rolled her eyes impatiently, saying, “Be, how can you believe such rumors? How could
Catherine possibly be from Rexinheim? This whole thing ispletely fabricated. I even suspect that
the school couldn’t find the real culprit behind all this, so they just shifted the me to Catherine!”
Seeing Amelia was getting angry, Isabe didn’t dare to continue asking.

The rumors outside were getting out of hand. They were so detailed and convincing that it seemed like
those people had actually experienced it themselves. Gradually, everyone’s suspicions grew stronger.
“I’m just asking. Don’t be mad!” Isabe said.
Right after that, the dormitory door suddenly swung open, startling Isabe.
They turned around and saw Catherine confidently walking in with her backpack in hand. When Amelia
saw Catherine, her eyes lit up with both joy and surprise. “Catherine, why do youe back?” she
asked.
Since Catherine was taken away yesterday, the news had beenpletely sealed off, and even
Amelia didn’t know Catherine’s situation.
Catherine nced at Amelia and calmly said, “I was bored at home, so I came back to theb to work.”
Amelia was stunned for a moment after hearing this. She then looked at Catherine with a surprised
expression. ” Catherine, are you going back to theb?”
Catherine turned her head and raised an eyebrow, looking at Amelia with a questioning expression.
Amelia thought she had misunderstood and quickly exined, “I didn’t mean to doubt you. I think it
might be troublesome for you to return to theb at this sensitive time.”
“It’s not troublesome at all,” Catherine responded calmly. “A clear conscience fears no usation.”
With that, she grabbed the materials on the table and walked towards theboratory.
Along the way, many people recognized Catherine. They had all heard of her reputation, and no one
dared to provoke her directly. Instead, they whispered behind her back.
Catherine made her way back to theboratory, striding towards the experimental room.
Several members, all Marshall’s students and part of his research group were in theboratory. Upon
seeing her, they stopped their work.
Catherine greeted them with a calm look in her eyes before sitting down at her desk. Her demeanor
was precisely the same as before as if nothing had urred.
Ciaran Johnston, the eldest among them, nced at Catherine, a faint smile appearing on his lips. He
then looked up at everyone and said, “You guys better get busy with your work. Professor Hartley will
be here soon, and if he catches you cking off, watch out for his fiery wrath!”
Everyoneughed and began to focus on their tasks. During Catherine’s time in theb, they had been
in close contact with her. They knew her abilities and trusted her. Regardless of what the outside world
said, in their eyes, Catherine was just a junior member of theboratory.
