Chapter 438 Yvette Runs Away
Yvette had always portrayed herself as an orphan within their circle.
She only did so to show off her talent.
Even when Ewan came to look for her, she claimed he was only a distant relative.
Ewan also relied on his association with her to elevate his status.
Everyone’s impression of her was shaped by her innocence and politeness. Naturally, they regarded her with a touch of pity.
She was a young girl anyway. It was not easy when she came to Kingbourne for the first time, so the elders sympathized with her struggles.
Who would have thought that she was actually backed by the Scott family!
Now, it was obvious that the Scott family was afraid of getting involved in the Gibson family’s affairs, so they treated her like a discarded pawn.
Scholars exchanged glances, silently distancing themselves from Yvette.
Hilda was still being investigated in Southdale. Despite the fact that Mr. Gibson Senior used to be very popular within the circles in Kingbourne, he was not even allowed to leave the courtyard now.
The storm hadn’t passed. The authorities were still investigating the case.
After all, it was quite a serious medical corruption case. It wouldn’t be settled easily.
Yvette glanced at the stares around her. Her face was flushed crimson. There was no need for her to say anything anymore. Standing there alone now already felt uncomfortable.
“Mr. Lopez, I’m sorry,” she muttered before fleeing.
Other scholars began to avoid her.
Luis brought her here because he wanted to completely crush Victor, letting him see that his excellence during their school time was in vain because he couldn’t compare to himself now in terms of status and apprenticeship.
Now, he really wished he hadn’t come today!
He had specifically arranged to meet Victor here. Luis‘ expression was amusing. He wanted to redeem
himself.
However, Luis continued, trying to manipulate Victor. He had to do so, otherwise, how could he maintain his status in the circle? He said, “Victor, I will take care of the paperwork for your junior. Don’t you worry, I will definitely have her enrolled by next week.”
Wynter lowered her head and smirked. Her eyes became dark as she spoke, “Don’t trouble yourself, Mr. Xalazar. Where I study is entirely up to myself.
Luis couldn’t restrain Victor anymore. Alone, he seethed with anger, his face contorted with rage.
