Chapter 525
While pulling a long face, Donovan transferred the money to Henrick’s bank account. He hurriedly left after
informing Marcus.
The latter did not stop him. After Marcus placed his bouquet in front of Shandie’s portrait, he pulled Arielle. “Arielle, I’m also responsible for this. I didn’t keep a better eye on your teacher, and it has caused so many misunderstandings between both of you. I’ll make him apologize to you in school. I hope that this doesn’t affect your studies. If you have any other problems and you’re unwilling to talk to Mr. Baxter about it, you can talk to me.”
Arielle knew that Marcus was a nice person. She replied, “All right. Thank you, Mr. Brown. After Mr. Baxter apologizes to me, I’ll forget about this issue. I just hope that he’ll stop finding fault with me.”
Marcus nodded before he said, “Of course. I’ll talk to him about this. I promise that nothing like this will ever happen again. If this happens again, I’ll take serious actions against him.”
Arielle paused for a while before she questioned, “What do you mean by serious actions?”
Marcus furrowed his brows as he answered, “If this happens again, it’ll prove that he’s not suitable for his job. I’ll report him to Maxwell University so they’ll transfer him away.”
Arielle murmured her assent, “I understand. Oh, right. I need to ask you something.”
“What is it?” Marcus asked readily.
After glancing around, Arielle felt relieved when she saw Henrick talking to other guests. Thus, she asked, “Is there any male teacher who’s a foreigner at school? Around forty years old.”
“Foreigner?” Marcus pondered the question and shook his head. “No. There are only three teachers who are foreigners. One of them is a woman, and the other two are older men.”
“What about a foreign student? A student who studied at our school many years ago. I think… in 2003.”
Helplessly, Marcus explained, “Every year, there are over tens of thousands of students studying in our school. Certainly, there are many foreigners among them. Since you’re asking for a student from the past years, I can’t remember all of them. I know that I was in the wrong this time, so I’ll make an exception today and give you the key to enter the archives. You can find the person you’re looking for in the room after class.”
With that thought, she did not want to haggle over the matter.
Thinking about that, she was secretly grateful to Donovan.
