Chapter 643
Basked under the bright sunlight, a woman approached them.
The woman had flawless porcelain skin that seemed to glow under the sun.
Though the woman’s face was bare, her natural beauty outshone Wendy’s elaborate makeup. Her breathtaking beauty would have put even Helen of Troy to shame. The gorgeous woman was none other than Arielle.
Immediately, a scowl graced Wendy and Donovan’s faces.
But, while Wendy’s venomous glare was full of hatred, Donovan had a conflicted look.
“Mr. Baxter.” Arielle bowed politely as she greeted him.
Donovan ignored her greeting and turned toward Wendy instead. “I almost forgot to tell you that there will be a professor from Maxwell University coming here as a guest lecturer tomorrow. Coincidentally, I don’t have a lecture. Hence, I won’t be present. Professor Sleight said that you are fluent in Ustranasion. You’ll act as a translator for the guest lecturer and accompany him around the campus.”
“A guest lecture from Maxwell University?” Wendy’s eyes lit up with excitement as she nodded eagerly. “I promise to keep him company tomorrow.”
“All right.”
Donovan and Wendy chatted excitedly, and the both of them pointedly ignored Arielle.
Uninterested in their conversation, Arielle entered the classroom.
Although Donovan was engaged in a conversation with Wendy, his gaze kept darting toward Arielle. Even when he asked Wendy to act as the guest lecturer’s translator, he unconsciously raised his voice.
Even though he didn’t know why he ignored Arielle on purpose, Donovan felt unhappy when he caught sight of Arielle’s moody expression.
The classroom door swung shut behind Arielle, and Donovan decided to excuse himself. “Why don’t you head in first? Remember to prepare thoroughly for tomorrow.”
Wendy was unaware of Donovan’s odd behavior. She nodded profusely and said, “I will! Let me head in first, Mr. Baxter.”
“Okay.”
As soon as Donovan spoke, the school bell chimed loudly.
