Chapter 1000 Dropping Out
“Are you sure you really want to drop out?” Marcus asked, thoroughly heartbroken.
Arielle nodded. “You must have forgotten that I’d graduated from Maxwell University previously. There’s really no need for me to complete my studies here.”
Marcus understood it perfectly, but he could not help feeling sorry to see her go.
After all, Arielle was a student of unmatched brilliance. If only she graduated from Jadeborough University, the school’s reputation would definitely be greatly enhanced.
Instantly guessing Marcus’ concerns, Arielle immediately smiled, adding, “Don’t worry, Mr. Brown. Jadeborough University will always be my alma mater as well.”
“All right, then,” said Marcus, visibly relieved. “I’ll go over the paperwork with you tomorrow.”
Arielle responded with a nod. Then she turned to Wendy, asking, “I’m dropping out of this school from tomorrow onward, but you still owe me fifteen million. When do you plan on paying me back?”
Wendy was struggling to process the fact that Arielle was quitting school after having had enough fun when she suddenly heard herself being reminded to pay back her debt.
Humiliation shot through her heart once again.
Enduring the searing pain on her cheeks, she burst into anger. “I didn’t ask for your help just now!”
“Oh?” Arielle cocked an eyebrow. “Is this your attempt to deny what just happened?”
Indeed, that was Wendy’s intention. However, it was not so much because she was reluctant to see her money go. She just wanted Arielle to feel the pain of spending more than she could afford as well.
Wendy figured whatever money Arielle had, she had probably only gotten it before Henrick was imprisoned, and it should not have been that enormous an amount either. Added to the fact that she had just made two payments of fifteen million each, there should not be much left anymore.
However, just as Wendy was about to offer her sculpture to Arielle as a gift, the onlookers began sneering at her again.
“Isn’t Wendy simply shameless? Forget the fact that she doesn’t have the money, but now she’s also trying to deny having borrowed it.”
“She even pretended as if she was rich during the auction, insisting on bidding against Arielle for the sculpture. I wonder which acting school she attended that turned her into such an actress.”
“Even though she’s wearing perfume, it won’t cover that nasty stench of a b*tch that’s coming off her…”
