At that time, there were quite a few students on the road. The ambulance fiasco appeared to have startled everyone, sparking a flurry of discussions among the crowd.
“I heard someone took their life.”
“Huh? I heard someone got drugged.”
“I heard the person involved in the incident was the genius who had just made a dazzling debut today, you know, Penelope Watson.”
“Could it be someone acting out of jealousy and revenge?”
Or did she get into trouble with her sugar daddy?”
“That’s impossible. Her teacher is Carlos, and from what I know, he’s kind of a big shot. Definitely not someone the average person could want to cross.”
“I did Mr. Carlos arrive earlier. Did he come because he knew something had happened to Penelope?”
Due to everyone’s confusion about the order of events, their logic was muddled and hard to follow.
Isabella, on the other hand, realized exactly what had happened.
Oh, I see. When Penelope woke up, she must’ve noticed she had lost too much blood through the cut on her wrist. She didn’t have the strength to get up, and in the end, her fear of death prevailed. She quickly called for an ambulance, which then alerted the teaching staff. Many people saw her being carried away, her clothes askew. Well, she brought that situation upon herself.
As thoughts swirled in her mind, Isabella soon arrived at the designated location.
Subconsciously, Christopher knocked on the door, perhaps out of fear of what he might see.
Truth be told, Isabella was also somewhat excited and curious, wondering what it would be like when he met Sylvie later.
After all, such things didn’t just happen haphazardly.
In the end, there was no sound from inside the room. Naturally, Sarah, who was worried about her younger brother, was the first to push the door open, only to find Carlos slumped unconscious against the wall.
Although his clothes were disheveled, they were still on and nothing seemed inappropriate.
More surprisingly, Carlos was alone.

Aside from Sarah who rushed over to check on her younger brother, everyone else couldn’t help but look around, finding no one else in sight.
Ihat’s going on? Let me check. D’mn, Sylvie is sneakily observing us from the next room? I guess she doesn’t want anyone to know what happened between her and Carlos.
Christopher wondered. Why? Isn’t she secretly in love with Carlos? Given what happened, shouldn’t she seize the opportunity instead of hiding?
Alexander didn’t overthink it. He stepped forward to assess Carlos‘ condition before suggesting they take him to the hospital themselves.
Sarah, too, found herself recalling the rumors she had just heard, which raised some unsettling suspicions in her heart.
At times like these, it was definitely necessary to avoid prying eyes and ears.
Hence, Alexander and Christopher propped up Carlos between them and feigned drunkenness. Then, they discreetly sought a quiet route to stealthily escort their friend out of the university.
Oh dear. The moment we left the building, she stopped spying on us. She’s worried about Carlos but has no intention of showing herself. There doesn’t seem to be a struggle earlier though. If Carlos had shown even a hint of rationality before and Sylvie had a choice, they wouldn’t have ended up in such a situation. After all, even though she’s Carlos secret admirer, she’s nothing like Penelope. She wouldn’t want to win over the one she liked in such a lowly manner. It probably felt as though she had taken advantage of his vulnerability. The guilt’s probably eating her up inside. This just makes Penelope seem even more like garbage.
