"Who is it?" the principal asked.
The principal looked at the young woman who came in, feeling a little confused.
"I am Wayne Chariott's sister. A while back, Wayne was hospitalized and asked for leave of absence. Last week, I contacted the school to arrange for him to come back for class, but I was told that he was expelled from the university." Coralie clarified.
Coralie still did not look back.
"Oh yes, we heard that he hurt someone. Our school does not tolerate students with such poor behavior." the principal contended.
The principal recalled this matter instantly. He suddenly became hostile even though he was quite friendly just a moment ago.
He seemed to be very disgusted by Wayne.
"Wayne Chariott is man of morality! You can't listen to the one-sided perspective in this case. What's more, a university as excellent as A University must have a comprehensive consideration on the admission of students." Coralie retorted.
Seeing the principal's attitude, Coralie was a little anxious and took advantage of praising A University.
"You're right, that some students have their immorality well-hidden. No matter what, in this society ruled by law, isn't it wrong for him to hurt people?" the principal replied.
"This again!" Coralie snapped.
In the end, hitting someone is wrong, but Coralie really could not explain to the principal about the rumors about her in the hospital.
If she were to tell the principal about the rumors about her being a mistress which led to his brother hitting the nurse, she did not know what would the principal think. It would definitely make the matter worse.
"He was wrong, but..." Coralie attempted to argue.
"But what? You're his sister, aren't you? I heard from the family members of the victim that you're a mistress who acts as a tyrant in the hospital and has a bad attitude towards nurses. Your brother is even worse. If the nurse couldn't take care of him, he will scold them vulgarly. Why would A University want a student like this?"
The principal affirmed confidently.
Coralie was stunned. She did not expect that the nurse's mother would say that about them.
And the principal actually believed it.
"What? Don't you want to talk? Or do you have nothing to say? Hurry up and leave. Our university will not accept Wayne Chariott as our student." said the principal.
The principal wanted to drive her away impatiently. He stood up from his seat, went straight to the door, and opened the door.
"Principal, they're lying. I'm not a mistress. Please don't listen to their nonsense. The police warned them about defaming me and prevented them from blackmailing me. That's why they so they came to the university to lie." Coralie uttered.
Coralie blocked the path and did not allow the principal to open the door.
If she got out of this door, the principal would definitely not see her again in the future. It will make it much harder to settle this issue.
"Not a mistress? I don't care if you are mistress or not. Anyway, Wayne Chariott isn't welcome here. You can find a way yourself!" the principal snorted.
The principal was getting impatient. Seeing Coralie blocking the path to the door, he reached out his hand and directly pushed her away.
But before his hand touched her arm, she heard a low and magnetic voice from the sofa behind the desk. "She's not a mistress."
Coralie was stunned. This voice...
"Could it be..."
She turned around and saw a handsome man sitting on the black leather sofa behind her, wearing a pair of trousers and a white shirt with a gem-blue tie.
"Sky..." she stuttered.
"President Holland, do you know this woman?" asked the principal.
The principal quickly took back the hand that was going to push Coralie and walked up to Skylar with a flattering face.
Compared to the attitude he had with Coralie, one was superior to others, while the other was humble.
Coralie looked at Skylar nervously. She did not expect him to be here, but Coralie understood that if Skylar was willing to help her, then nothing else would matter. All the problems would automatically be solved.
She looked nervously at Skylar, afraid that he would deny that he knew her.
"Yes."
After thinking for a while, Skylar answered lightly.
