Chapter 34

Π

The next day, just like the previous days, Yvette arrived at the classroom intending to sleep until the class ended. She had just covered herself with her clothes when she heard a loud thud on her desk.

Yvette slowly lifted her head, her throat a bit hoarse. Looking at the pile of books in front of her, she felt a moment of confusion.

Bonnie, sweating profusely and panting, said, "Yve, these are all introductory Frixyia books. You should take a look. For the next three days, just focus on reading these books. I'll handle the tasks assigned by the professor."

Yvette finally understood. She smiled and casually flipped through a few of the books. Bonnie had brought ten books in total: three introductory, five intermediate, and two containing advanced vocabulary.

"Did you replace these books yourself? Yvette asked.

Bonnie shook her head innocently. "No, a very handsome librarian helped me. He saw me looking for Frixyia books and asked what I needed them for, so I told him about your bet with Sharon. He recommended these books, saying you'd definitely need them." Yvette frowned slightly but maintained her usual nonchalant expression "Oh."

Bonnie noticed Yvette's low spirits and thought she was unhappy with her for meddling, which made Bonnie a bit sad:

Yvette rarely considered other people's feelings because they didn't matter to her at all. Seeing Bonnie's disappointment, she uncharacteristically added. The books are good. Bonnie"

Bonnie brightened up immediately. So, Ms. Gorgeous isn't annoyed with me for meddling!' she thought. Bonnie was full of energy again and insisted on making Yvette read the books. Yvette had no choice but to start reading.

The professor noticed Yvette reading Frixyia books and didn't know what to say. He had also seen the campus's internal forum and knew about Yvette's competition with Sharon from the Frixyia department.

However, he didn't think last-minute studying would help. He felt he couldn't understand students these days.

The lecturers and professors had grown accustomed to Yvette. She was the most talked-about person on campus recently. Regardless of her reputation, no one had high hopes for her GPA. Since she arrived, she had slept through every class. The professors assumed the courses were too difficult for her and that she couldn't understand them.

The Chambers family probably sent Yvette here just to get her a college degree, so the professors chose to ignore her. Now, Tobias was the only one in the faculty who still hadn't given up on Yvette's GPA.

Andrew was playing on his phone when he accidentally opened the Argrol University forum. He saw a pinned post with glaring letters: [Sharon from the Frixyia Department will compete in a Frixyia contest with Yvette from the Physics Department in the auditorium! To be held in three days.]

Andrew rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things. The Yvette mentioned in the post was the same cool girl from the steakhouse,

He jumped up from his chair so quickly that it made a screeching sound, attracting unfriendly looks from everyone in the library. Ignoring their reactions, he ran out of the library, sprinting all the way to the villa he shared with Jeremiah off-campus.

"Bad news, Jeremiah. Something terrible has happened to your girl! Jeremiah, Jeremiah!" Andrew shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Shut up" Jeremiah had just finished handling a task for his unit remotely when he heard Andrew yelling.

Andrew took a deep breath anil showed Jeremiah his phone. Jeremiah took one glance at the screen and then looked away. Jeremiah, Yvette is actually going to compete in a Frixyia contest Andrew was still in shock.

Jeremiah pulled a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. Through the swirling smoke, his expression remained unchanged.

Jeremiah, you have known about this already, right?" Andrew added again.

Jeremiah's voice was hoarse from the smoke, making him speak inore softly and slowly than usual. "Yes"

1 bet you don't know Yvette's background, Andrew said.

Jeremiah turned his head to look at him, his sleeves casually rolled up, revealing a slim, fair wrist. "Tell me."

This time. Andrew didn't waste any words and directly recounted what he had read on the forum.

"It's a sad story Yvette is the long-lost daughter of the Chambers family, one of the four major families in Seacrity. However. Mrs. Chambers in her mother. Yvette's mother was Mr. Chambers's first wife, named Lilian. Yvette was recently found by her family. but I heard she got into a conflict with members of the Carter family on the basketball court a few days ago and was kicked but again. Now she's staying on campus. I never expected such a cold and beautiful girl to have such a complicated background, Andrew sighed Jeremih listened to Andrew's words, his frown deepening. His eyes grew more serious, as sharp as knives. Andrew hadn't seen Jeremiah like this in a long time and felt a bit scared. It was clear that Yvette was very special to Jeremiah.

Jeremiah rarely showed his emotions. To be precise, this was only the second time Andrew had seen such an expression on Jeremiah's face in all these years.

Andrew, bracing himself, continued, "The forum says if Yvette loses, she'll have to apologize to her half-sister in front of

everyone

Jeremiah's expression grew even colder. He stubbed out his cigarette and pulled out the milk candy Yvette had given him. Despite the days that had passed, the candy hadn't melted and still tasted as sweet as ever. Jeremiah stared at the candy for a while, his eyes unreadable. "She won't lose

Andrew wasn't sure who Jeremiah was referring to, but doubted Yvette's chances. Frixyia is one of the hardest languages in the world. Andrew himself had struggled with it, only learning it under immense pressure from his father, and even then, he only achieved mediocre proficiency.

Yvene, coming from the countryside, couldn't possibly know Frixyia. She was bound to lose.

Sering Jeremiah's confidence in Yvette, Andrew thought to himself that men in love lacked wisdom. Still, since Jeremiah had such faith in Yvette, Andrew decided not to argue. He resolved that if Yvette lost, he would reveal his identity to divert attention and prevent Jeremiah's girl from being humiliated. Andrew didn't mind losing face himself; he had no shame and could just leave afterward

In those three days, Sharon's extensive promotion made almost everyone at Argrol University aware of the competition.

Normally, the auditorium didn't require tickets, but this event drew such a crowd that the student council had to distribute tickets to maintain order.

Sharon, following Winona's advice, personally approached Patrick for fairness. Patrick readily agreed, seizing the opportunity to discipline Yvette.

Victor and Winona secured second-row seats and arrived early to take their places. Winona even visited the backstage area

to encourage Sharon. Seeing Yvette there, she walked towards her in front of everyone.

Bonnie was pouring water for Yvette and nearly bumped into Winona when she turned around. "Sorry, I didn't see you. Did any water spill? Winona asked with concern.

Donnie ignored Winona, huffing as she hurried over to Yvette and handed her the water.

Winona couldn't stand it. Why does Yvette always have someone doting on her? At home, Dad spoiled her, and now on campus, she even has people fetching water for her, she thought Yvette, how can you make others fetch water for you?" Winona asked.
