Vice Principal Harris, who had just been publicly humiliated, finally exploded.

He charged forward, snatched the briefcase away, and opened it.

This time he learned from his previous mistake.

Without hesitation, he tore open the envelope.

Stacks of U.S. dollars spilled across the stage.

Bills fluttered onto the floor like confetti.

Vice Principal Harris slammed the envelope onto the table.

“And you accuse our school of bribing the judge? It looks to me like you’re the one trying to bribe him!”

“You-”

“Don’t twist my words!”

Director Quinn desperately tried to defend himself.

Vice Principal Harris refused to let him off.

The stage instantly descended into chaos.

The Education Bureau officials finally intervened and ordered all students to leave the stage while they conducted a formal investigation.

Regardless of the outcome, one fact was undeniable.

Capital Preparatory Academy had won.

And secured the M University study-abroad scholarship opportunity.

After the competition, Sophie and the others immediately started planning a celebration dinner.

While they were arguing, Iris casually noticed Colin standing near the auditorium

entrance.

He was waving at her.

“I’m not going.”

She walked over.

Colin grinned. “So? How was the chocolate?”

“It was okay.”

He casually threw an arm around her shoulders.

“Come on. Let’s grab dinner. And I’ll introduce you to our lab’s newest investor.”

“Big-time businessman.”

Iris slapped his hand away. “The lab got funding?”

“It did!” Colin’s eyes lit up. “The investor has a family member with an illness that aligns perfectly with one of our drug-development projects.”

“He reviewed our credentials and approved the investment almost immediately.”

“Honestly, it’s all thanks to you.”

“After all, you’re the one who originally built that lab with us.”

Hearing that, Iris was genuinely pleased.

She agreed to dinner.

Colin chose a restaurant that perfectly matched her tastes.

After ordering their food, they waited in a private dining room for the mysterious investor to arrive.

Colin couldn’t resist teasing her.

“You know…”

“If the investor walks in and sees you wearing a high school uniform, he might have a heart attack.”

“A member of M University’s board.”

“The founder of the laboratory.”

“And she’s secretly a high school student back home.”

Iris took a sip of tea.

“You could simply not tell him.” Then she stood. “I’m going to the restroom.”

She had barely reached the door when it opened from the outside.

She nearly collided with Julian Cross.

“Miss Iris?”

Julian froze.

Then he stepped back and checked the room number again.

No mistake.

This was definitely the right room.

Weren’t they supposed to be meeting representatives from M University today?

Why was Miss Iris here?

“What a coincidence.”

Hearing that voice, Iris suddenly felt that she would’ve been better off celebrating with Sophie and the others.

Ares Barclay stepped into the room and froze when he saw her.

He had been thinking about finding an excuse to visit Capital Preparatory

Academy and see her again. He just hadn’t come up with one yet.

Instead, she had somehow appeared right in front of him.

Colin looked equally stunned. “You two know each other?”

Ares’s gaze shifted between Iris and Colin, as if trying to determine the nature of their relationship.

“We know each other. But not exactly.”

Colin had no idea how to respond to such an ambiguous answer.

So… was he supposed to introduce them or not?

“Well, let me introduce you properly anyway. This is Iris Noir. She’s-”

Iris cut him off.

“His friend.”

It was obvious she didn’t want her identity exposed.

Colin could only play along.

“That’s right. She’s my friend.”

Then he gestured toward Ares.

“And this is Mr. Ares Barclay, the investor behind our M University laboratory.”
