Chapter 194

Turning around, he told the director, “I’ll be stepping in for Vinson as Romeo.”

Even Andrea was taken aback by this dramatic turn of events.

But Agnes was indeed a talented actress, and her previous popularity would surely make the school event a hit.

Andrea said, “That’s the best possible scenario Now, I declare Ryder will replace Vinson as Romeo. Spend some time rehearsing and get used to each other. Bring honor to our school in two weeks.”

As she left the office, Cecile was trembling with rage..

Ryder simply walked away.

Agnes stared at his retreating figure, puzzled.

He always seemed to hate her, so why did he help her at this critical moment?

“Agnes, you got lucky this time, but don’t count on this kind of good fortune next time.”

With that, Cecile attempted to leave.

But Agnes blocked her path, “Isn’t it time we settled our scores?”

“What scores?” Cecile played dumb.

Agnes tossed a piece of paper at her, “Remember our bet? I won, so you need to go to the administration office and clear up that you intentionally slandered me on the school forum. I’ve already prepared the statement. Go now.”

Cecile glanced at the statement, her fingers trembling with anger.

“I won’t read it.”

“Alright, then like you, I’ll give you three slaps. But I’ve been practicing Taekwondo since I was a kid, so my punches might be a bit hard. But to go easy on you would be a disservice to all the things you’ve done.”

Agnes had already raised her arm.

“Wait, I’ll read it!”

Cecile gritted her teeth.

She hadn’t expected Agnes to be a Taekwondo practitioner, though it should’ve been obvious from the shoulder throw she did earlier that day.

If Agnes really hit her, she might be disfigured.

Kerri told a classmate, “Go with her to the broadcasting room. Make sure she reads the statement word for word!”

Ten minutes later.

Cecile’s voice came over the school’s PA system, Tm Cecile, and I’m here today to clear up a misunderstanding. I admit that I intentionally standered Agnes on the school forum without any proof, and sabotaged her props during the play 1 deeply regret my despicable actions and take this opportunity to sincerely apologize to Agnes, and I hope she can forgive me…”

Agnes and Kerri were in stitches as they heard Cecile gritting her teeth.

“Sweet justice! Look at her gritting her teeth in anger She must be fivid.”

Agnes smiled, “She’s been too arrogant. Hopefully, this will teach her a lesson.”

“Thank goodness for Ryder’s help. Otherwise, you might’ve been in trouble.”

Feeling pleased, Agnes didn’t head back to Maplewood Manor after school, but went straight to Tim Tower.

Her public affair with Jared had garnered a lot of attention, and everyone now knew that this 20–year–old college student was actually the wife of the CEO of the Tim Group.

Everyone greeted Agnes with respect.

Agnes hadn’t told Jared she was coming, so she didn’t take his private VIP elevator

Instead, she took the staff elevator to the 99th floor.

The elevator opened directly to the secretarial department outside the CEO’s office.

Agnes had interned here for a month, so she was familiar with everyone

Everyone was surprised to see her. Her former intern buddy, Mia Taylor, was the first to greet her, jokingly saying, “Good afternoon, Mrs. Whitfield! How can I assist you today?”
