Chapter 405

Simon looked at Amy, who was crying uncontrollably, feeling more upset but unsure how to comfort her.

Samantha knew Simon; back when he was in Betrico, he would visit her grandfather during holidays, so she knew about his character.

Simon dedicated his entire life to educating and tirelessly nurturing countless talents for the country, only to see someone like Patrick appear under his watch in his later years.

Gossip could be frightening: Patrick not only damaged Argrol University’s century–old reputation but also ruined Simon’s lifelong reputation. One could imagine how difficult it was for Simon to decide to call the police.

Samantha felt a wave of emotion; at a young age, Amy encountered a teacher like Patrick, which ruined her life.

Amy cried for five full minutes before stopping. She looked at Simon and said firmly, “Mr. Sunderland, I will ensure Patrick goes to jail. Please forgive me. I can’t just act like this never happened.

“I know that once this gets out, the school’s reputation might take a hit, but I will still go through with it. Mr. Sunderland, thank you for being willing to support me.”

Simon nodded and said, “Child, this isn’t your fault; you are the victim.”

After finishing their conversation, Simon walked over to Yvette and the others.

Samantha politely greeted Simon, saying, “Hello, Mr. Sunderland.”

Simon nodded at Samantha, feeling a bit surprised. He wondered why Samantha had come to Security. But it wasn’t the right situation to ask further questions.

Simon said to Yvette, “I’ll stay here with Amy and wait for the police. The physics department exam is tomorrow, so you’d better go home early and get some rest.”

Simon already knew about Yvette’s plans to leave Seacrity. He personally approved her leave request. Yvette postponed her departure by a day for the physics exam tomorrow.

Yvette nodded and said, “Alright, we’ll be leaving now.”

As they were leaving the bar, they ran into Zane and his group. Zane was completely surprised. He thought, ‘Why are Yvette and Jeremiah here? Could today’s events be linked to them?’

He quickly approached and respectfully addressed Jeremiah and Yvette, “Mr. Chavez, Ms. Zeller.”

Jeremiah remembered Zane. He slightly nodded and said calmly, “Alright, go on in.”

Upon hearing this, Zane realized the two were related to the event today.

Zane said, “Mr. Chavez, Ms. Zeller, I’ll go in first.” With that, he led the police officers behind him into the bar. Shortly after, the bar was sealed off.

In the car, Yvette was sitting in the front passenger seat, eyes down, playing with her phone. Andrew asked her, “Yvette, you have an exam tomorrow, right? I haven’t seen you study at all. Do you feel prepared?”

Andrew hadn’t seen Yvette pick up any books about physics. He guessed her exam results might not be very good. That might be a huge disappointment for Yvette.

Samantha was also curious about how Yvette performed in physics. Charles said nothing because he was aware of Yvette’s physics abilities.

Once, the principal of Mysegna’s top university tried three time to invite Yvette to become a tutor in the physics department, but Yvette didn’t even care, Not to mention a simple physics exam.

From Charles’s perspective, Andrew’s question wasn’t worth answering.

Jeremiah continued to drive without saying a word. He thought, Siren’s physics grades?”

Yvette replied to a text: [Get what I need ready and send it to Normis.] Then she looked up, relaxed and casual. Her voice was always cool and clear as she said, “It’s okay.”

Andrew quickly comforted Yvette, “Yvette, don’t be discouraged just do your best; grades are just marks on paper. Look at me. I graduated from Betrico University, and now I’m a librarian” He then patted his chest confidently.

Samantha looked at Andrew and gritted her teeth. She thought, Why does he boast so confidently about these things? Where in the Mitchell gene pool does things go sideways?‘

Charles twitched his mouth and leaned towards the window. He felt it was better to keep a safe distance from Andrew;

foolishness tended to be contagious.

Jeremiah was used to it by now, driving as calmly as ever.

The next day, Patrick’s situation was the talk of the town from early morning. The entire city of Seacrity was buzzing, and the internet was ablaze with discussions.

As Samantha said, once things escalated, Amy would surely face all kinds of rumors and gossip. As expected, the internet was split into two camps.

One side thought that Patrick was deceiving students and using photos to threaten female students into bed, saying he deserved a harsh punishment.

The other side argued that it took two to tango; Amy brought it on herself.

One commented: [How could Argrol University have such a disgraceful director? Forcing female students with vile tactics is completely insane, like a monster ruining a girl’s life. It’s truly disgusting.]

Another one said: [How can someone like that even be considered a teacher? I really hope the authorities give this scumbag a severe punishment to give the victimized girl some justice. This incident is too terrible.]

One said: [You can’t only listen to the female student’s side of the story, right? What if she’s doing this to secure a spot in a better program? Who can know the truth in this society?]

Another person said: [Hey, do you even have any sense of humanity? Do you know how much courage and determination it takes for a female college student to stand up and talk about something like this?]

The online debate was heated, but most people were reasonable, with more netizens supporting Amy.

Benjamin, the lawyer hired by Samantha, flew to Seacrity early in the morning. After meeting with Amy, he had lunch with Samantha and Andrew. Benjamin was confident about the case and convinced Patrick would pay for his actions.

Today was exam day for the physics department at Argrol University. Yvette, dressed casually, walked into the exam hall right on time.

Everyone in the exam hall was excited, and even the proctors couldn’t help but watch Yvette closely, as seeing her in person was rare.

After distributing the test papers, the proctor announced loudly, “Once you finish the exam, ensure you check your answers well.

You can submit your papers up to half an hour early.”

Yvette picked up the paper from the desk, read it thoroughly, and started writing. She moved through the answers smoothly, without pausing and finished her work effortlessly.

The proctor had been keeping a keen eye on Yvette. He was tre test was designed by eight university physics professors, and he He thought. Does Yvette take a good look at the questions befo even a Doubting, the proctor chose to focus only on Yvette, ignoring th After half an hour, Yvette stopped writing. She looked up at the An hour and a half left before I can hand in the paper? What sh After considering for a moment, Yvette, under the invigilator’s Watching Yvette close her eyes while resting on the desk, the pr finished in just half an hour? That seems impossible.

Yvette stayed in her position.
