Chapter 41

Nicole had to stop closing the door."Mr. Graham, be reasonable. You stuck your hand in there—you brought this injury on yourself!""Mrs. Graham, you're right, but you know how clumsy we men are with bandages. You and Mr. Graham were married after all—could you help us out?"James jumped in, seeing how Travis could infuriate someone with just one sentence.His boss might be a genius in everything else, but his emotional intelligence was concerning.If he just wanted Nicole to clean his wound, why couldn't he ask nicely? A thirty-year-old man speaking so aggressively—what woman could stand it?Sure enough, Nicole's expression softened slightly after hearing James."Fine. I'll treat the wound, then you take your boss and leave immediately."James nodded, bowing repeatedly. "Yes, Mrs. Graham. I'll drag the boss away if I have to—we won't bother you any longer."Nicole finally registered what James was calling her and frowned, correcting him."I'm divorced from your boss. Don't c

Chapter 42

Travis's body slammed hard against the wall with a dull thud!"Hmph, how could I possibly be jealous over that woman?"Alexander gripped his collar, pinning him against the wall, and stared coldly into his eyes. "If you're not jealous, why are you here? Shouldn't you be with your Lucy? It's too late, Travis. You've lost your chance!"The smug, triumphant look in Alexander's eyes pierced Travis like an arrow.Using all his strength, he broke free from Alexander's grip. "There's nothing I want that I can't get!"A cold gleam flashed in Alexander's pale blue eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses.A sudden left hook caught Travis on the chin.Before Travis could react, Alexander followed with a right hook to the same spot.After taking two solid punches, Travis's head was spinning.Having just had minimally invasive surgery, he was no match for Alexander's high-level taekwondo skills.Seeing Travis swaying unsteadily, Alexander narrowed his eyes, clenched his right fist, and struck

"You've been prying into my private life?"Even Travis didn't know Nicole's mother was sick—how could Alexander know?There was only one possibility: Alexander had someone following her.Seeing Nicole angry, Alexander quickly explained, “Nicole, remember when someone suddenly knocked on your door that day? I had someone investigate if you'd upset anyone recently. I was worried you were being stalked or targeted for revenge. It's not safe for a woman living alone."Nicole remained angry. "So you just went ahead and investigated my entire life? Now you know about my birth parents who abandoned me?"Alexander fell silent, unable to meet her eyes.Those eyes were clear but sad.Everyone has secrets and pain they don't want others to see.For Nicole, her secrets and pain were her original family and birth parents.“Nicole, I just wanted to understand you better.""So you felt sorry for me? You thought I needed pity, and that's why you let me into your research institute?""No, it

"Hello everyone, my name is Nicole Spencer. I look forward to working with all of you!"Nicole stood up and greeted all the teachers present with great humility.The meeting room erupted in enthusiastic applause, though most of it came from the male professors.The female teachers only gave a token clap or two.Meanwhile, the sleeping male professor turned his head sideways and continued sleeping.The Dean then launched into a long speech about his vision for the university's future. This time, all the male and female teachers sat upright in their chairs, listening attentively.Just as the Dean was speaking with great enthusiasm, a long yawn echoed through the meeting room.The Dean, who had been speaking animatedly, immediately cleared his throat and looked embarrassed. "It's getting late. Everyone, please return to your positions to prepare for classes."The male professor who had been sleeping immediately lifted his head, stood up, yawned again, and sauntered out with his ha

Being caught red-handed left Richard thoroughly embarrassed.Red-faced, he quickly excused himself to Nicole, saying he had something to attend to, then hurried over to Ben, bowing and apologizing profusely."Professor Wallace, I was just giving the new professor some background about you. I accidentally said a bit too much."Ben's long, elegant index finger lightly touched the bridge of his straight nose as his thin lips curved into a smile. "Richard, you really don't know how to lie. Just look at your ears."He pointed to Richard's ears, which had turned red all the way to the tips, then raised his foot and gave him a kick right in the backside.Richard let out an exaggerated "ouch," quickly covered his rear, and made a hasty escape.Having dealt with Richard, Ben ran his hand over his short hair, put his hands back in his trouser pockets, and looked up at the woman before him. "You're Professor Nicole Spencer, right?"Nicole nodded. "Yes."Ben nodded casually. "The Dean aske

Ben's hand missed as Nicole quickly moved the suitcase away. A flicker of surprise crossed his handsome face before he smiled and said lazily, "Fine."Since she wouldn't accept his help, Ben wouldn't insist.He walked ahead with his hands in his pockets, but his pace was noticeably slower now.When they finally reached the elevator at Building E, Nicole was somewhat out of breath, her fair face flushed pink.Being tall, Ben could clearly see the woman's fine pores and the beads of sweat forming on her face.This woman wasn't wearing makeup.On closer inspection, Ben realized she had only applied lipstick and lightly defined her eyebrows.Even in this nearly bare-faced state, she was attractive enough to mesmerize the older men in the office. If she were to wear full makeup, those men would probably be falling over themselves."Professor Wallace, which floor is my dormitory on?""806. Let's take the elevator."Ben took out an elevator card and swiped it to call the elevator.

Seeing Ben's aloof expression, Nicole wasn't sure if it would be appropriate for her to join them.The table could seat four people, and another male lecturer was already sitting next to Richard.If Nicole sat there, she would have to share the same bench with Ben.So she cautiously asked, "Would it be okay if I join you?"Richard answered without hesitation, "Of course, absolutely!"After his cheerful response, he realized Nicole wasn't asking him.Looking at the empty space beside Ben, Richard understood that they really needed Ben's approval.He lowered his voice: "Professor Wallace, Professor Spencer is new here. Could you be accommodating?"Ben didn't say anything and took another couple bites of his food, but he did scoot over, creating more space on the bench.Richard's eyes lit up and he immediately waved Nicole over. "Professor Spencer, come sit!"Nicole carefully set her tray down and sat next to Ben, murmuring a thank you.The table wasn't large. As soon as Nicole

As the door opened, Nicole felt a cool breeze coming from the man's room and noticed the light inside.Surprised, she asked, "You have power? Isn't there an outage?"Ben raised an eyebrow. "No outage. Did you forget to add money to your electricity card?"With this reminder, Nicole quickly opened the app to check the status of room 806's electricity account.Sure enough, she had run out of credit."I forgot to mention, new electricity cards typically start with zero balance," Ben explained, rubbing his nose with a serious expression.Nicole looked up at him with a resentful gaze.The next day, 8 AM.Nicole taught the first and second periods. Having prepared thoroughly, her class went relatively smoothly.Drawing on her years of part-time work and several major surgeries she'd performed, she made her lecture vivid with clinical case studies.At first, the students, seeing how young and attractive she was, didn't expect much from her lesson. Some mischievous male students even

"Professor Spencer, I still don't quite understand this point. Could you explain it again?"The student's question broke Nicole's train of thought. She picked up the textbook and went through the concept once more.Only when the bell rang for the third period and another lecturer entered did Nicole hurriedly leave.Back at her office desk, Nicole reviewed her entire teaching process from the day, noting down areas for improvement.She stayed busy until lunchtime, pushing thoughts of Travis's sudden appearance at the school to the back of her mind.Given how crowded the cafeteria had been yesterday with barely any available seats, Nicole decided to head to the Italian bistro just outside campus.The east gate of the school was somewhat secluded but closest to the restaurant district.Nicole opened her umbrella and hurried toward the food street.As she approached the corner, she heard a car door closing behind her, followed by hurried footsteps.Nicole's heart suddenly tightene

Chapter 50

Having received the answer he wanted, the anger in Travis's heart finally dissipated.Seeing Nicole's wrist had turned red and swollen from his grip, he gradually released her hand."If you'd just told me earlier, I wouldn't have treated you this way."He loosened his hold as he spoke.Just then, a mother and daughter walked past them.The little girl wore two cute braids and looked up at her mother. "Mom, can I have a chicken burger later, with a Coke?"The girl's mother smiled down at her. "Sure, but only once a month, okay? Too much isn't good for you!"The little girl nodded obediently. "Okay!"Watching their retreating figures, Nicole thought of the child she had lost and instinctively touched her abdomen.The first child of her life, gone because of those thugs."Whose child was it in your belly?" Travis suddenly remembered this issue.He recalled Nicole telling him she had lost the baby.In three years of marriage, he had only been intimate with her once.He couldn'
