Chapter 351

The members of the board of trustees in the conference room understood the implication of Larry's words. They chuckled quietly to themselves, while Vincent and Jeremiah frowned upon hearing them. After all, Jade represented Clotheap University, and Larry seemed to indirectly insult the university as well.Vincent glanced at Jade discreetly and found her calm and composed, showing no signs of anger or confrontation in reaction to Larry. Instead, she calmly addressed Larry in a polite yet distant tone. "Mr. Woolley, please think carefully before speaking. My personal reputation is insignificant, but you shouldn't tarnish the school's reputation as well. Remember, Quincy is also a student of Clotheap University. If my reputation is damaged, she won't benefit either.""You..." Larry caught the meaning behind Jade's words. He hadn't expected her to be so sharp-tongued. Taking a deep breath, he retorted angrily, "You are you, and Quincy is Quincy. Your affairs won't affect my daughter. Hmp

It was as if that day's meeting had nothing to do with him and he was just there to make up the numbers.Khloe felt unfairly scolded for no reason, but not daring to offend Larry, she vented her anger on Jade."Stop distorting the facts. The reason we, the board of trustees, are here today is to demand an explanation from the school. Clotheap University is a renowned institution both in Centus and nationwide. If we allow morally corrupt students like you to stay at the school, will our children not be influenced? I strongly oppose it," Khloe said fervently, signaling to the other members of the board to express their opinions as well."Yes, I firmly oppose Jade remaining at Clotheap University.""I'd be worried if my child was studying with a student like Jade. She should leave Clotheap University.""If Jade doesn't leave, we won't give up."Inspired by Khloe's call to action, the others also voiced their opinions. The entire conference room was drowned out by their loud voices.

As soon as that voice was heard, the door was kicked open. Cooper stepped in with measured steps, casting a cold glance around the conference room and sneering. "A bunch of adults are bullying a young girl. Have you no shame?""Hey, how dare you speak like that?" A member of the board of trustees slammed their hand on the table, scolding Cooper.Cooper kicked over a row of chairs, propped a long leg up on one of the chairs, and smirked at the shouting member with his chin raised slightly. "I speak politely to reasonable people, and I use my fists on everyone else. Which treatment do you want?"Standing at 1.85 meters, Cooper towered over everyone in the room and intimidated them. With his sturdy physique and broad shoulders, he was more than one head taller than the greasy, middle-aged men. Thanks to his cocky demeanor, no one dared to contradict him.Initially, Vincent intended to reprimand Cooper for his unreasonable entrance, but he couldn't help but feel strangely pleased after

Jade took a deep breath to compose herself and addressed the board. "The truth you are all after is right here."As the surveillance footage played, everyone understood what had happened. When they saw someone steal Jade's phone, drug her in the hotel room, and transfer her to another room, they all gasped in horror."To think there are people with such ruthlessness. It's unimaginable.""Thank goodness Jade was lucky, or the consequences would have been unthinkable."It was a pity that the perpetrator had been wearing a mask and their identity remained unknown. While others might be unaware, Jade knew very well who it was. The person who had done this to her was none other than Neve. Even though Neve had concealed herself with a hat and a mask, Jade would never forget Neve's figure and appearance.These grievances were between Jade and Neve alone, and it was not appropriate to bring them up. As long as Jade was able to prove her innocence and dispel the rumors online, that would

Caelan was wearing a sharp suit. His gaze was icy, his expression rigid, and the chill radiating from him sent shivers down everyone's spine.As the heir of the Fitzgerald Group, he stood at the pinnacle of the Centus elite. He held everyone's fate in his hands. The board of trustees was shocked by his arrival and terrified by his words.Apologize?Did Caelan really expect them, all prominent figures in their respective circles—bank presidents, government officials, etc.—to apologize to Jade, a mere fledgling, who had barely made her mark?This was humiliating.The atmosphere in the room froze, and no one dared to speak up, even though they all felt disdain deep down. If they had to apologize to Jade, they might as well drop dead."Mr. Fitzgerald, isn't this a bit unreasonable? I'm a bureau head, yet you expect me to apologize to a young girl like Jade? What about my reputation?" Khloe was the first to speak up, shooting a glance at Larry as she spoke.Larry understood her mea

Vincent watched the board of trustees with a smile, a cunning gleam in his eyes. Previously, these people had treated him like a doormat because of their power and influence. Seeing them groveling now made him feel like he was finally getting his dues.While everyone else's minds were racing, Jade stood frozen in place, staring at Caelan. It felt like a thunderbolt had struck her heart, and she experienced a growing sense of exhilaration. Being held in such high regard felt unexpectedly good."Mr. Fitzgerald, is everything settled now?" Khloe's fawning grin was completely different from her earlier haughty demeanor.Larry also dropped his authoritative stance, bowing as if he were a lowly servant, afraid of offending the bigwig before him.Samuel glanced at Caelan and realized Caelan's mind was not on these clowns. He waved his hand and informed the board, "You can leave now.""What about the blackmail?" Khloe asked cautiously."Since all of you have apologized, there's no need t

Jade felt pliant in Caelan's arms, her unique scent greeting him and momentarily stunning him.Jade felt Caelan tense up and smiled, her arms tightening around him. "Thank you for standing up for me. Thank you...""For liking me" was what she would have said if she had finished her sentence.Caelan slowly lifted his arms, letting them hover above Jade's shoulders, his fingers curling and then straightening before he gently held on to her shoulders. Her embrace felt warm, and he liked it."How childish," he said, even though he actually liked it a lot.Jade didn't mind, knowing that Caelan was wary of physical closeness due to childhood trauma. The fact that he didn't push her away on the spot was already a win."Mr. Fitzgerald." Samuel suddenly pushed the door open, saw the scene, and quickly backtracked.Caelan, however, nonchalantly let go of Jade and called out, "What's the matter?"Samuel's heart was pounding. He realized he had walked in at the worst possible moment. He sh

Quincy looked at Jade skeptically. "I said so many bad things about you. Aren't you going to retaliate?""I admit that I don't harbor good feelings for you, but Clotheap University isn't owned by the Severins, and I don't have the power to decide your fate either. You encouraged other students to fight with me and slander me—this is an undeniable fact. Your punishment is up to the school authorities, understand?"Quincy breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Jade's words. "As long as you don't retaliate, I don't mind waiting for the school's decision."Jade felt speechless. It seemed like Quincy was treating her like some kind of gang boss. Caelan's actions today would probably intimidate quite a few people, but it was better this way, as people would avoid provoking her all the time."Do you still have something to say?" Melanie asked when she saw Quincy lingering there.Quincy hesitated for a moment, looked around to ensure no one was nearby, then told Jade, "I know who sent the

The guy spoke with a frivolous tone, and his expression was even more contemptuous. "Women like her will do anything for money. She's a server at the club, but as long as the customer pays, she'll drink, sing, and even let you touch her without saying a word."Low laughter echoed around, mostly guys’ laughter. It seemed that Lilith's reputation wasn't a secret among them anymore.Jade didn't want to listen to the guy's vulgarity anymore, so she grabbed Melanie and left."I never expected Lilith's reputation to be this bad. What kind of decent person would work at a place like that?" Melanie lamented.Jade was indifferent. She hadn't interacted with Lilith much. The only time had been in the cafeteria, and Lilith had given off the impression that she was bossy and hard to get along with.As for what those guys had said, Jade couldn't agree, nor could she approve of it. She wouldn't know what kind of person Lilith was until she saw her with her own eyes.Jade walked briskly ahead,

The security guard saw that Jade seemed sober and Melanie had stopped shouting, so he left."Jade, are you going to let her go just like that?" Melanie complained. "She's definitely Lilith. I remember the birthmark on her neck. I can't be mistaken."Jade signaled to her to calm down and explained slowly. "I know she's Lilith, but you saw that she wouldn't admit it no matter what. If we keep making a scene, it won't benefit us in any way.""Then what should we do?" Melanie was at a loss."Let's wait outside. She'll finish her shift eventually." Jade smirked.Melanie immediately understood and snapped her fingers. "Right, let's play the waiting game."An hour later, Lilith finally walked out of the club. She looked around cautiously, relieved to see no one around, and kept walking. She was wearing a cap and a mask, covering herself securely, as if she was deliberately avoiding someone."She's finally out," Melanie said excitedly, ready to grab Lilith. However, Jade stopped her.I
