Escort? President!
Chapter 16: I Will Go Back and Resign

After Felicity reached the campus, she too felt peoples' eyes on her in a different way and that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Her expressions were a little ugly and angry as she walked towards Lucas's classroom.

Everyone knew that Lucas was rejected the day before, so naturally seeing Felicity walk towards him attracted much unwanted attention from gossiping students.

Some of the students present there could not help but exclaim in excitement.

The noise in the corridor attracted Lucas's attention.

However, he was not particularly surprised, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly in a knowing smile, as if he had expected it.

He crossed his legs and sat comfortably in his seat and calmly watched Felicity walk towards him.

"I want to talk to you." Felicity said coldly.

"You and I have nothing to talk about!"

Lucas sneered, not wanting to cooperate.

Felicity was extremely angry as she accused him directly, "Aren't you going too far? I rejected you so you just went on pressuring others with your power to fire me from my job? Do you even know how many people are getting hurt by your rash decision?"

Felicity didn't want Jason to be involved in her affairs and lose his job.

As soon as she said this, everyone around looked alarmed. This drama was becoming way more interesting to ignore.

But Lucas didn't care everyone listening. He raised an eyebrow at her and mocked, "haha! I just felt like it! Why? Where's your tough boyfriend now? Come on, call him here again?

Felicity was so angry that she couldn't stop shaking; she still tried desperately to restrain herself and compose herself.

She didn't want to involve others in getting humiliated with her, and she said with forbearance, "Your problem is with me! Don't bring others into it!"

Lucas approached her, seemingly interested and said, "Oh Yeah? Fine! Apologize for the humiliating rejection that you slapped in my face yesterday. Will you?"

"Fine!" Felicity said faintly, trying to contain her anger.

"Okay then, let me see your sincerity." Lucas continued to press her for an apology.

"I

Felicity gritted her teeth and bowed deeply in front of Lucas to apologize in front of all the people. "I'm sorry that I rejected your proposal yesterday and humiliated you. I hope you can forgive me." The onlookers laughed at her. Yesterday, she was acted so bold and noble - she wasn't this submissive.

What happened for her to bow so deeply and apologize today?

Did she really overestimate herself? Not knowing her status?

"Will this do?"

Felicity asked, trying to suppress her emotions, also trying to ignore the whispers around her.

"No!" Lucas refused decisively in a playful tone.

If sorry could solve all the problems then all the criminals would be set loose after saying a mere sorry.

"What would it take to satisfy you?" Felicity tried to swallow her anger.

"Oh! I am not that hard to satisfy. Your resignation! Or if your boyfriend quitting his job! Choose one, and I'd let you off the hook and not make it difficult for you anymore."

Lucas raised his tone in a dominating way and said with a smile.

Felicity did not reply, she tightly clenched her fists.

Off the hook?

Ugh! He was doing all this on purpose? Making it difficult?

If she were to quit her job, her internship will be interrupted, and she would have trouble graduating in the future.

It was impossible to even think of Jason Reed resigning.

He was not related to her; she couldn't just accept his help first and then drag him down with her later. She could never do that.

It was a difficult choice to make, but if she didn't choose, maybe both of them will be fired.

Felicity bit her lips. For the first time in her life, she resented herself for being incompetent.

Looking at Felicity being deliberately humiliated and trying to keep her composure, some students felt pity for her, and their hearts softened. "Isn't Lucas going too far?"

"Yeah! He can't just ruin someone's career over a rejection..."

"I feel bad for Felicity; she is put in such a hard spot. She is so brave to take responsibility."

"Yeah, I feel a little sympathy for her."

But no one dared to stand up and speak. They just whispered among themselves.

After all, the power of Lucas Branson, the son of the owner of Branson group, was huge. No one dared to offend him.

"Why, isn't a multiple-choice question easier to do? Aren't you a top student?"

Lucas began to satirize Felicity with indirect insults, forcing her to make a decision.

At that moment, Felicity could only stand there and glare at him fiercely; there was no way out for her.

At that moment, a man's voice came directly scolding Lucas.

"Lucas! Are you even a man?"

The speaker was actually David Cass.

As one of the most popular students in university, David had always been gentle and polite, and was particularly handsome. He had won the hearts of many people. As some of the girls saw him approaching, they couldn't help feeling jealous.

Why there were so many handsome men around Felicity James?

As Lucas saw him approach and speak for Felicity, he also couldn't help but frown.

In terms of family background and power, he was not afraid of David.

David's family was of well-educated people but they were not comparable in any way to Lucas's status.

So, Lucas began to sneer, "Ah! David, since when did you begin to defend her? If I remember correctly, you too were rejected by Felicity James?"

David walked over and stood beside Felicity. He was not irritated; he just frowned and said, "My feelings are my own problem! We can't force people to feel a certain way about us."

Lucas's disdain was visible in his tone, "I do what I want! It's not your fucking turn to come in to rescue! You should protect yourself before jumping in for others, like a sensible person!" Since Felicity was humiliated him in public, Lucas wanted it to be clear that he won't let such a matter go easily.

Seeing this and not wanting to involve David in this, Felicity said softly, "Thank you for coming out to help me David! However, you don't have to interfere in this matter. I'll solve it myself..." David looked at Felicity, his eyes showed a trace of hesitation.

Since he couldn't help her by insisting, he stopped; but he couldn't help feel a little upset in his heart.

Felicity didn't pay any attention to him after that. She just looked at Lucas and said clearly, pronouncing every word with force, "Fine! I will go back and resign. I hope you can keep your word and don't involve him in this again."

Having finished saying what she wanted, Felicity turned to leave.

Lucas sneered; his face is full of satisfaction.

David felt a little worried; he squeezed out of the crowd, chasing Felicity.

"Felicity, don't be impulsive..."

David blocked Felicity's way. He wanted her to think about this calmly.

"It's OK. I've already thought about it."

Felicity gave him an indifferent smile, and then added bitterly, "Not a Big deal! I'd repeat a year!"

In any case, she could not harm Jason and make him lose his job.

David couldn't help but say anxiously, "Maybe something can be done, or you can go to the counselor for help."

"It's no use."

Felicity interrupted him, then she thanked him sincerely, "No matter how it turned out, I still want to thank you for coming to help me." She did not expect that in her most helpless moment, David would take the initiative to stand up for her and offer her help.000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
