A Beauty With Multiple Masks
Delighted, Cornelius took an invitation from his pocket and handed it to Arielle.
“I’ll send you the exact details later. When the time comes, please bring this invitation card along with
you.”
Arielle reached out to accept the maroon card. Though the card was devoid of any text, the Mills’ gold
sigil was stamped on it. The credibility of the card would be revealed under UV light.
Arielle ran her finger across the invitation card. “This paper is of great quality,” she complimented.
After she gave Cornelius her contact number, Arielle left Silverbirch Hospital.
Cornelius was caught off guard by Arielle’s sudden praise.
Aside from the Mills, it was a well-kept secret that their invitation cards were specially manufactured.
These cards would not crumple in water. It was also flame resistant.
Seeing how Ms. Moore could tell from a single touch, her skills are in a league of their own.
Despite that, Cornelius did not feel any envy or jealousy. If Arielle became the head of the Mills, he was
confident that they’d be able to regain their glory.
In the past, the Silverbirch Hospital was an illustrious name in the medical field that blew any competition
out of the water.
After Arielle left Silverbirch Hospital, she returned to Maple Mansion and concocted a new medical
solution for Josee.
Since the herbs she gave Josee this afternoon were much more potent, Arielle needed to give Josee
something to counteract its intensity. After a week, she would proceed with the third round of treatment.
At Jadeborough University, Donovan entered the class with a stack of graded papers. Most of the
students were engrossed in their self-revision.
Donovan’s gaze swept across the classroom and noticed four empty seats.
Without a doubt, it was Arielle, Jared, and Henry. Three students whom Donovan absolutely despised.
The fourth vacant seat belonged to the new transfer student, who was an odd fellow.
Every day, he’d ask if Arielle was present in class before he took his leave.
With a dark look, Donovan made his way to the podium. Soon after, the bell chimed. The moment it rang,
Henry and Jared stepped foot into the class.
“Stop right there!” Donovan uttered coldly.
Henry was never fond of Donovan. “Mr. Baxter, the bell hasn’t finished ringing yet. We aren’t late,” he
argued.
“The ringing bell signifies that class has started. The two of you are already late. Get out of my class. You
were never focused on learning anyway. Don’t distract the other students with that irresponsible attitude
of yours.”
“You-” Henry seethed as he stepped forward, prepared to argue with Donovan.
However, Jared grasped Henry’s sleeve and gave him a warning look. Without another word, Jared spun
on his heel and left the class.
On the other hand, Henry was absolutely fuming in anger. Did he forget that my name is Harvey West?|
have billions under my name. Although we can‘t be compared to the Jupiters, it‘s clear that the Wests are
a family to be reckoned with. How could he treat me with such disrespect?
Despite his fury, Henry still listened to Jared’s advice. After Jared stepped out, he stormed out of the
class too.
“Donovan is an absolute lunatic. Isn’t he going out of his way to make our lives miserable?” Henry
grumbled.
Jared’s calm demeanor was a stark contrast to Henry’s.
“It’s all right. He’s only going to discuss our test papers. We won’t be missing out on anything.” Jared
said to reassure Henry.
The latter felt a stab of guilt. “I’m sorry. If only I hadn’t overslept, you wouldn’t be late. I won’t take a nap
anymore. Wait, once the results of my monthly evaluation are out, I can leave this class forever!”
“Do you need my help? If I get the Jupiters to show up, Donovan will be forced to keep you in his class.”
“No! Please don’t do that. I am dying to leave Donovan’s class. Although I’ll miss you, I can’t wait to
break free from his wretched grasps,” Henry said in a panic.
Right after Henry finished talking, Donovan began to announce the marks of their assignment.
