Carlisle and Wanda rushed to the ssroom before the first period.
After taking attendance, Susan distributed the printed ss schedule to her students. Then, she announced, “The military training is over. The bonfire-<b>”</b>
She immediately stopped and corrected herself. “The military training is over, which means your university life officially starts now. Remember your ss schedule well. “Also, we will be electing a ss council today and tomorrow. Those who think that they are capable cane talk to me.”
She cast a brief nce at Carlisle and Wanda. She had her eyes set on these two and was sure one of them would be elected the ss monitor.
After all, they were highly rmended by their trainer, Lawrence.
Carlisle did well from the beginning, and his performance was even more
outstanding during the military training.
Carlisle noticed Susan’s gaze, and he could guess that she wanted him to run for the
ss election.
Adding a position on the ss council during university to one’s resume could prove advantageous during job hunting.
That said, Carlisle did not need this. He was only attending university to keep Wandapany and make his parents proud.
Wanda was sleepy after drinking the herbal medicine, so she dozed off on the table.
Ruby poked Carlisle’s back from behind and asked, “Carlisle, are you going to run for
the ss council?”
Carlisle didn’t want to talk to Ruby, so he just shook his head wordlessly.
Ruby continued to say, “I want to run for the position of ss monitor.”
Carlisle wanted to tell her that it was none of his business, but he didn’t want to risk
falling out with her considering her identity.
He suddenly wondered if Ruby was involved <b>in </b>the Incidentst <b>night</b><b>.</b>
Before this, Ruby had schemed against Wanda on the school bus <b>heading </b><b>to </b>the outdoor military training site. Later, Wanda and Ruby’s group also falled in their mission to expand their base due to conflict.
Carlisle didn’t bother with pleasantries. He directly turned his head to stare at Ruby and demanded, “Was it youst night?<b>”</b>
“What?” Ruby was taken aback.
What happenedst night? The incident on stage involving Wanda?
She had a prior conflict with Wanda, so it was normal for Carlisle to suspect her.
After contemting her reply, Ruby asked, “Would you believe me if I said that it wasn’t me?”
Carlisle stared at Ruby’s eyes as if he could see through her.
Ruby stared back at Carlisle without any fear. She was not involved in that incident, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Carlisle looked away soon after. Ruby should be innocent, but who else could it be if
not her?
Sarah? But the one Sarah hated was him. She had no reason to harm Wanda.
It seemed like he could only wait for thework expert hired by Gareth to begin investigations.
The couple had a full day of ss today. Wanda slept most of the time, but the teachers did not disturb her.
Peter had already informed the teachers that Wanda was not feeling well and that she should be resting at home. He also asked them to keep an eye on her.
After sses, Carlisle received a call from Gareth even before he walked out of
campus.
“Carlisle, have you finished your sses?”
“You’re quite on time.”
“Of course, eating is important.” Gareth joked<b>, </b>as <b>if </b>he was <b>trying </b><b>hard </b><b>to </b><b>get </b><b>close </b><b>to </b>Carlisle.
Carlisle said, “Let’s meet at Wondend Steakhouse on Northdale Street.”
Gareth grinned. “Okay, I’ll head over right away.”
On the way out, Carlisle ran into Kelvin at the gate. He seemed to have been beaten
again. His face was bruised and swollen, and there was a band–aid on his forehead.
“Carl…”
Carlisle asked indifferently, “Who beat you?<b>”</b>Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Kelvin shook his head and said nothing. This time, he was beaten by Alex’s men.
