Chapter 127
Elijah strutted into the dean’s office, flanked by his parents. He quickly spotted Celine and Halley, both looking refreshed and composed.
His heart flattered when Elijah saw Celine’s delicate face. He had always wanted Celine to be his girlfriend from the moment he saw her.
Melody had only instructed him to create trouble for Celine, not to win her over,
What puzzled him was why Celine, coming from such a humble background, would reject him. He didn’t care where she came from–why did she have the right to turn him down?
Wherever he parked his sports car outside the girls dormitory, countless girls practically threw themselves at him.
Elijah oneered arrogantly at Celine “Celine, are you scared now? You’ve only been at Yorhine University for two days, and you’re already about to get expelled! If you apologize to me now, maybe there’s still a chance to turn things around,”
Victoria grabbed his arm. “Elijah, look at how she beat you up. We’re not letting her off the hook! We must make sure she’s expelled from Yorhine University!”
Henry turned to Balley. “Mr. Moore, how are you going to handle this?”
Before Bailey could speak, Celine Interrupted, “Mr. Moore, if a bully sexually harasses female students on campus and threatens their safety, how should the university handle it?”
Elijah sneered. “Celine, why are you accusing me of sexual harassment again? Do you have any evidence?”
He was sure Celine had none. But Celine calmly pulled out her phone and played a video,
It was a full recording–from the moment Elijah and his lackeys arrived to when he ordered them to seize Celine and Hailey.
Everything was clearly captured.
Elijah’s expression changed. He was stunned, “Celine, you recorded a video?”
Celine smiled faintly. “Mr. Elijah, just as you wished, the evidence speaks for itself.”
Elijah fell silent right away. He never imagined that Celine had been recording everything in secret.
Celine’s bright, clear eyes fixed on him, radiating intelligence and confidence.
Bailey was furious and scolded, “Elijah! So you were the one leading a group to harass female students and stir up trouble. You didn’t win the fight, and now you’re playing the victim
Elijah was fed up that people kept saying he didn’t win!
Halley smirked and added, “Mr. Moore, what do you think we should do about this? I suggest calling the police!”
“No! Don’t call the police!” Victoria rushed forward in a panic. She couldn’t allow her son to get a criminal record.
Celine raised an eyebrow. “Weren’t you planning to have us expelled from Yorhine University?”
“We were just joking! Let’s forget about this and pretend we never came here!” Henry grabbed Elijah and started pulling him away.
Elijah, still unwilling, protested, “Mom, Dad, does this mean I got beaten up for nothing?”
Henry smacked him on the head. “Shut up!”
With that, They dragged Elijah out.
The face finally ended Halley gave Celine a big thumbs–up, and Celine responded with a radiant smile.
Outside, Adam watched the scene unfold. Behind him, Leo exclaimed happily, “So Mrs. Alvarez had an ace up her sleeve all along!”
Then, he added as he frowned, “That Elijah is outrageous. He actually sets his sights on Mrs. Alvarez and even wants her to be his girlfriend. He must be dreaming.”
He turned to Adam “Mr. Alvarez, it seems you misunderstood her ”
He had indeed misunderstood Celine.
She wasn’t being unruly or liked causing trouble. She was simply acting in self–defense.
It was Elijah who had targeted her
Adam’s gaze stafted to Celine, smiling brightly and vivaciously at Hailey inside the office. She was so full of life.
Earlier, in the dormitory, she had tried to explain everything to him. But he hadn’t listened. Instead, he had lashed out at her, and that was when the light in her eyes had dimmed.
