Chapter 1025 Keep Pretending

"Oh? Show me your graduation certificate, then," Arielle challenged, never letting go of her smile. "Keep in mind that I'm asking for your graduation certificate, not your completion certificate."

A lot of Chanaeans could get into Maxwell University, but only the truly talented and capable ones were able to graduate from it.

That was mainly because the university's graduation exam was a lot more difficult than its entrance exam.

Calvin could clearly feel the judgmental stares from the other designers in the conference room.

Had it not been for him pretending to be a Maxwell University graduate, Kimi would most probably have been chosen as the team leader instead.

Fearing that he would lose his job if the truth was revealed, Calvin desperately came up with an excuse. "Of course I have a graduation certificate, but who on earth would have it on them all the time?"

Arielle nodded. "Oh, right. Which batch and course were you from? I'll give your program leader a call to ask about it."

Hearing that, Calvin burst out laughing. "Huh? Program leader? You think he's someone that any random person can just ring up like that? Do you even know how to reach him?"

"Just answer the question."

Arielle's tone was so calm that it freaked Calvin out.

Is she really able to contact my program leader? Nah, she's probably just bluffing! I have to stay cool and stand my ground!

With that in mind, Calvin took a deep breath and tried his best to maintain a calm expression. "Sixteenth batch, computer engineering."

Nodding, Arielle began dialing a number.

Hmph! Go on, keep pretending! Maxwell University isn't your ordinary university! You can't just ring them up like that, especially when you're a pretentious young lady! Calvin thought to himself, only to see Arielle's call get through a few seconds later.

"Hello, Ms. Selena. Could you please contact the program leader for the computer engineering course? I need to ask about a former student named Calvin Zeller." Calvin felt his heart skip a beat when he heard that.

Ms. Selena is the freaking vice president of Maxwell University! Is she trying to scare me into telling the truth? Or does she really have Ms. Selena's contact number? No, that's impossible! Everyone knows Ms. Selena is the freaking She-Devil! She's always walking around with that angry face like she's about to eat you up! If I don't have her contact number, how could she possibly have it? Even if that really is the vice president on the phone, there's no way she'd help her out after being spoken to so rudely like that! Who the hell does she think she is, anyway?

"All right, thank you very much." Arielle hung up the phone after that. Staring at Calvin calmly, she informed, "Your program leader will call me in about two minutes from now."

Hearing her, Calvin burst into laughter on the spot. "Okay, sure! I'll wait for him to call, then!"

Pfft! There's no way my program leader will call her!

The other designers began to question if their doubts toward Calvin were misplaced when they saw how confident he was.

After all, he didn't exactly live up to his reputation. Had it not been for his claims about graduating from Maxwell University, they would have only listened to Kimi, who was a lot more capable.

As such, seeing Calvin so calm and confident about Arielle checking his credentials got them wondering if she was actually wrong about him.

Their train of thoughts was interrupted when Arielle's phone on the table began ringing all of a sudden.
