Chapter 512 Team Vaughn
Vaughn was immediately stunned.
With curiosity, Emrys asked, “So, what did Ms. Mapleton say?”
“Um…”
Vaughn put his phone back into his pocket, his face showing a complex expression as he looked at Emrys. He asked, “Mr. Lund, have you somehow offended Ms. Mapleton?”
During their last meeting in the chancellor’s office, he had noticed tension between the two.
But back then, it wasn’t that serious.
However, from the tone of Hazel’s voice over the phone just now, it was clear that they had already had a falling out.
Vaughn was utterly bewildered. He couldn’t figure out how Emrys had infuriated Hazel to such an extent.
Emrys sighed and said, “Ah, it’s really difficult for me when Ms. Mapleton treats me this way. But I truly am innocent. I just don’t understand what I did to upset her.”
With a cold laugh, Darrell reveled in schadenfreude, saying, “If you hadn’t done something outrageous, given Ms. Mapleton’s character, she would never have treated you this way.”
“Nonsense!”

Emrys argued, “I’ve only met with Ms. Mapleton twice in total. How could I possibly have done anything excessive? I’ve only met. with Chancellor Diaz twice, but Chancellor Diaz wouldn’t treat me this way. Therefore, I feel that Chancellor Diaz is better than Ms. Mapleton. What do you think, Mr. Holt?”
“Uh…”
Darrell’s expression momentarily faltered.
Although he was emotionally intelligent, he dared not casually answer such a sensitive question.
He couldn’t afford to offend either side.
At this point, Emrys spoke again, his voice seething with anger. “Mr. Holt, you’re actually hesitating? You dare to hesitate? Is this even a matter that requires hesitation? Chancellor Diaz is indeed better than Ms. Mapleton! What does your hesitation mean? Do you feel it’s inappropriate to voice your true opinions in front of Chancellor Diaz? You, my friend, seem to have some issues with your thinking!”
Pfft!
Darrell was so infuriated that he almost spat blood.
This d*mned guy. Can’t he live without stirring up trouble!
“Hmph, what’s there to evaluate? She’s the chancellor, and I’m merely the vice–chancellor. There’s no need to compare us. Deep down, I hold a great deal of respect for Ms. Mapleton. For a woman to have attained the position of a chancellor at this age is

not something just anyone could achieve!”
Vaughn cast a glance at Darrell, letting out a cold snort.
Afterward, he turned to look at Emrys, his expression noticeably softened, and said, “Mr. Lund, I truly sympathize with you, a genius like yourself. But since Ms. Mapleton has already made her decision, I’m helpless… Don’t worry, Mr. Lund. Although we can’t hire you as a teacher, if you ever run into any trouble in the future, don’t hesitate to seek me out. I will certainly help if I can.”
Overwhelmed with emotion, Emrys responded, “Thank you, Chancellor Diaz. Thank you so much. If I had met you earlier, I certainly wouldn’t have been overlooked until today.”
Before leaving, Emrys turned back to Darrell and said, “I told you that Chancellor Diaz was good, but you just wouldn’t believe me, you piece of trash!”
Darrell trembled all over, the two golden front teeth that had just been fitted a couple of days ago were nearly shattered by his clenching.
“D*mn cunning and cowardly jerk!”
“Mr. Holt!”
Darrell muttered under his breath, and as he turned his head, he saw Vaughn’s incredibly gloomy face. All he heard was Vaughn saying, “You are a faculty member of the academy. If there’s a problem with your thinking, how can I trust you with the students?”
