Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 958

"Well... I'm not entirely clear on the specifics. But this was her mother's request. You know how mothers worry!

A mother would never deliberately sabotage her own daughter, right?"

Gwen tried to play the emotional card.

"I was under the impression that Mira had already severed ties with her family?"

Damn it! What was wrong with Dean Henderson today? Why was he so well-informed about that wretched girl?

Thinking quickly, Gwen pivoted. "Yes, exactly! This girl is incredibly rebellious and morally bankrupt. She even abandoned the family that raised her!

She refuses to acknowledge her own mother and brother. How can you accept a student like that?"

Dean Henderson shot her a look of utter disdain. "So, you were aware they had severed ties?"

"Of course. She's my niece, how could I not know? She's been disobedient since she was a child. Sigh... we were just arguing moments ago."

"Does that mean the two of you don't get along?"

Dean Henderson asked pointedly.

The implication was clear: You came here specifically to slander her.

"No, no, our relationship is perfectly fine. The child is just a bit unruly, that's all.

As her aunt, I'm simply choosing to be the bigger person and let it slide."

By now, Dean Henderson saw right through her.

He had seen shameless people before, but never to this extreme. Trying to destroy a student's academic plans and framing it so righteously?

"Professor Quinn, our department admits students based solely on their academic merits and character, not their family dynamics. And we certainly won't reject such an outstanding student based on a few slanderous remarks.

Instead of wasting time badmouthing someone else's child, you'd be better off looking after your own."

Dean Henderson's words were incredibly harsh.
