shocked did not know how to . They could only look at Russell and The students and Paul did not understand why the University, involve a student an executive decision.
Everyone in the room even wondered if they had misheard Russellâs question.
Has Mr. Russell always been accommodating?
âHeâs devoid of any ego presidents usually have.â
Trina froze, terrified, as she glared at Bonnie.
The latter grew exasperated as she whispered to Russell, âJust deal with it as you see fit. Whyâd you ask me that?â
He whispered back, âYouâre the future of this university. Who else can make this call?â
Bonnie did not know what to say at that moment. Soon after, she said, âI donât recall agreeing to that.â
âItâs okay. Iâll take that as a yes.â
Bonnie was utterly speechless now. She would have rolled her eyes at him if it were not for the people around them. Moreover, she was on the verge of calling him out for being shameless.
She said, âYouâre the universityâs president. You donât have to ask for my input. Just deal with it as you see fit, Mr. Russell.â
Russell responded firmly, âIf thatâs the case, Iâll announce on the universityâs official Twitter account that Iâve expelled Trina.â
âPâPlease donât! I beg you not to do it, Mr. Russell! I swear I wonât repeat my mistakes!â No matter how much Trina pleaded, he would budge. She realized Russell would not go on her turned to Paul.
âProfessor, you have to help me! I have a bright future ahead. I know Iâll make considerable contributions to the science world. Iâll always remember that youâre my mentor.â
Paul was in a dilemma. âHereâs the thing, Russell-
more word, and fire you!â Russell was unaware of how long Paul had 2/2 University so he .

âHe be the university president, but I have tricks up my sleeves. Iâll contact my old who works at Bonita Research Institute tomorrow.
Ms. Bonita appreciates a talented future researcher like Trina, Russell must respect the nationâs leading researcher and keep Trina in the university.
Gresham and Vera gloomily sat at the dining table but had utterly lost their appetite. The former exclaimed, âGah! Whatâll we do about Trinaâs future now?!â
Itâs all Bonnieâs fault! Sheâs such a pain in the ass. I told you she brings nothing but bad luck!â
âDamn it! Trina has a bright future ahead, but Bonnie ruined it for good.â
Gresham massaged his temples and said, âYou canât pin everything on Bonnie. Trina made a mistake, too. How could she do something like that in Pyralis University?â
Trinaâs eyes swelled from crying so much. âMom, Dad, Iâm sorry. I just couldnât stand how Bonnie treated you. Thâthatâs why I let anger cloud my judgment and made a mistake.
Please forgive me.â
Vera felt heartbroken to see her precious daughter cry again. She embraced Trina and patted her back, saying, âItâll be okay, Trina. Youâre not the wrong one. I blame Bonnie. After all, you were just trying to stand up for us.â
