Wendy's heart twitched in pain as she recalled Vinson's threat.
Biting her lips, she pulled Susanne to a corner. “Ms. Stone, please follow me. I've got something to tell you.”
“Okay, okay. Mr. Brown, please arrange for someone to welcome Mr. Parker later. I'm not familiar with Jadeborough University, so I'll have to count on you.”
“Leave it to me, Mrs. Nightshire. We'll take good care of Mr. Parker and the other.”
Marcus replied with a smile on his face. Even though he did not like Wendy that much, it was, without doubt, a great honor that Susanne invited Steven to Jadeborough University. Hence, regardless of what mistake Wendy had
made, the former did not mind it.
As for Kelsea's case, it was true that Wendy should not have stood for Kelsea. But since the police had proved today that Wendy was not involved in it, Marcus decided not to accuse her further.
It was usual for young people to engage in conflict. Marcus figured it was still acceptable as long as one did not break the law and the school rule like Kelsea.
Meanwhile, Wendy brought Susanne out of the hall.
Susanne could not suppress her curiosity. “Wendy, what's going on? Is there something wrong with Sennhein?” “No, it's not.” Wendy shook her head, hesitating-
Susanne's expression turned stern right away. “Wendy, you know that I don't treat you as an outsider. I hope you can treat me the same. Feel free to tell me about anything. I'll help you to solve it.”
Wendy was waiting for Susanne to say that.
She uttered indignantly as her eyes started brimming with tears. “Ms. Stone, it is all my fault. I shouldn't say that Kelsea's case is related to Arielle. Everything I told you before is not verified yet. Please don't misunderstand Arielle.
Maybe she is innocent.”
