No Escape from Love novel Chapter 47

After what Lila said, Justin seemed to flare up in anger. "What kind of logic is that? Just because there have been scandals before doesn't mean we can just let the university's reputation rot!"

Lila said, "But if Serena reports this to the police and the truth comes out, wouldn't that clear her name?"

Justin's anger seemed to be ignited even further. He glared at Lila and said, "This matter will only be handled according to what I said. I'm warning you, if you keep making a scene, I'll punish you as well."

Lila was about to retort when I quickly grabbed her arm.

I was already in a difficult situation. I couldn't drag Lila down with me.

"I'll figure it out," I said, holding onto Lila tightly to stop her from speaking.

Peter finally stepped forward. "If you really can't resolve this, then bring your guardian in. We can discuss the situation together."

I nodded. Even though I was unhappy about the situation, I still dragged Lila out after expressing my thanks.

"Serena, Justin is clearly abusing his power," Lila said angrily.

I understood that very well, but I had no choice but to swallow my pride since he held all the power here. After all, I couldn't let Lila get dragged into this.

Lila saw how silent I was and sighed. "What are you going to do now? Why don't you give Alex a call? Let him help you."

Lila sneered, "Justin loves to suck up to the rich and powerful while trampling on the weak. If Alex shows up, I guarantee he'll start groveling before you."

I was very against that idea.

First of all, I didn't want to trouble Alex with everything. Secondly, I really didn't want Alex to know about the situation I was in. I didn't want him to see me in such a sorry state.
