Chapter 67: Make way for me, ladies
"I normally wouldn’t speak about a student’s private life," Jenny began, her tone heavy with implication, "but since it’s come to this...Ella has long been disowned by the Yu Family and since then, she has been relying on... sigh... overall, these rumors aren’t untrue.’’
If she finished her sentence, then the impact of her words would have diminished.
However, Jennie’s vague words were even more dangerous as they left more to one’s imagination.
"To anyone who heard her words, it would seem like Ella had done far more disgusting things than what the rumors spoke of."
Gauging everyone’s reactions, Jennie continued, ’’Keeping her here would only harm us in the long run."
"She is just a young girl. You make it sound like she has the ability to corrupt the entire institution,’’ Professor Grimwood dismissed Jenny with a light wave of his hand, ’’Kids tend to blow things out of proportions so we cannot judge a student based on what other students are saying about them.’’
Some of the professors immediately showed their agreement to what Professor Grimwood said.
’’That’s right. If we start suspending every student based on rumors, then in no time, there would be no students left in this university.’’
Jenny smiled, ’’You overlooked one thing. She is still an academic failure. That gives us enough reason paired with this to expel her.’’
"An academic failure?" Professor Grimwood stroked his beard as he looked at Jenny thoughtfully, ’’Did you perhaps mispronounce academic genius?"
Every person in the room froze.
