Caelan appeared devoid of happiness, his brows knitted in a deep furrow."This is just the initial model, not fully developed yet. Currently, it can only track locations. When upgraded in the future, it will offer more functions," he explained briefly to Jade.Despite its preliminary state, Jade felt content. She expanded on Caelan's thoughts. "In the future, will it be able to make calls and video calls?"Jade's eyes sparkled as she gazed at Caelan. The admiration in her expression pleased him, eliciting a rare smile. "For now, there are only two units—one with you and one with me."He showed Jade his wrist, where he also had a wristband identical to hers, except slightly larger.Jade touched the wristband on her wrist, the sweetness in her smile reaching deep into her heart. Only two units—that meant they were a couple's edition.Such a unique gift was far superior to rings or necklaces."What's up?" Caelan asked softly as he saw her grinning foolishly.His deep voice echoed

Jade opened the door to find shattered glass and a splatter of rotten eggs everywhere, emitting a foul stench. The perpetrator had already fled the scene."Are you kidding me? Throwing rotten eggs at our dorm door? Why don't you come out and throw it in my face if you have the guts?" Melanie barked, her voice echoing around.Some dormitory residents popped their heads out, their expression gloating."Isn't this Miss Clotheap's dorm? Why is it being targeted with rotten eggs now? It must be because you're so popular. Otherwise, why isn't anyone targeting us? Hahaha..."Once someone started, others joined in."You know, I've always said there's no such thing as a perfect person in this world. Winning awards and marrying into the Fitzgeralds—turns out she has a whole other side behind her back. Such talent isn't something we ordinary folks can possess."The crowd's words were sharp and aimed directly at Jade.Before her image was shattered, everyone looked at her with admiration, t

The students speculated about what had happened, but Jeremiah waved his hand, dismissing them. Then, he hurriedly walked out.After a few steps, he turned back and told Jade, "Go back to your dorm first. Your case is pending.""Pending?" Melanie widened her eyes. "What does that mean? Just a moment ago, he was defending you, and now it's pending? Doesn't the school know you've been wronged?"Jade remained remarkably calm. From the beginning of this incident until now, it felt like there had been a hidden agenda against her. Even if she wanted to stay out of it, it was impossible now. Since the other party was determined to fight her, she would oblige.As the students filed out of the office, some couldn't resist mocking Jade."What a jinx, making us write self-criticisms.""Have some shame. You started the fight, so why should Jade be involved?" Melanie retorted loudly.As it seemed another argument was about to erupt, Jade quickly intervened. "What's the matter? Do you think 5,

Jade stood out at Clotheap University as one of its most esteemed students, particularly excelling in academics and the field of medicine. Given her impressive credentials, it seemed improbable that the school administration would easily dismiss her.Vincent broke into a sweat, quickly denying, "Jade, you're overthinking it. Your situation has simply placed you in a delicate position. Granting you a break is for your own safety. The board of trustees holds strong opinions about you. If they were to take action, what would we do?"Vincent wore a forced smile, feeling trapped in the middle because he couldn't afford to offend either Jade or the board of trustees."Jade, I think taking a break would be a good idea." Jeremiah leaned in to speak to Jade, lowering his voice. "Dealing with the board of trustees isn't easy. If they continue to pressure the school, taking a break won't be the end of it by then. During this time, we can also investigate who's behind the rumors about you."Me

Upon hearing that, Samuel frowned and hurriedly asked, "What did you say? Mr. FItzgerald's woman is facing trouble at the university?""Uh, that's what she said," the receptionist replied, not understanding why Samuel looked so nervous.Samuel thought for a moment and guessed the intention behind it."Oh no! This could be troublesome," he said, then rushed away.…The board of trustees sat in the university conference room, each with a proud expression on their faces. They were waiting for the school's decision to discipline Jade. They wouldn't leave until they saw her punished.Only ten important members came today, indicating their stance even though not everyone showed up."It's just a young woman, why make such a big deal out of it? The school hasn't sent anyone to explain the situation after so long. They're not efficient at all," complained a middle-aged woman. She wore heavy makeup, had curled hair pinned up, sported a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on her nose, and was dres
