Chapter 51: Invitation
"Valencia! You naughty brat! The founders are roaming in the University. Look at you eating in the corridors so carelessly. Do you really not care about a- ?" The dean stopped talking when I glared at him.
He cleared his throat before looking away briefly.
"Why? What’s that? Why are you looking at me like this?" He asked me, and I looked at him for a good few seconds before sighing and shaking my head.
"Despite my naughtiness and your angry banter with me, I thought you still cared about me. But seeing how easily you sided with the management and blamed me, I guess I was wrong about you," I shook my head before walking around him.
The dean stood there frozen for some time before he followed me.
"Hey, what do you mean? Who told you all this stuff? You don’t even know everything. Go ask the principal how much I defended you. How can you say that I don’t care about you? I indeed recommended you to the founders despite knowing how much you will hate the role, but that’s also because I wanted you to gain some credits. I always treated you like my own child, and this is what you have to say to me?" The dean looked at me with a hurt expression.
I looked at him blankly before shrugging my shoulders.
"Okay," I said.
"Okay?" He asked.
"Yes. I was just testing you. Now that you have clarified things between us, I don’t think we have any other problems," I said with a smile on my face, and the dean glared at me when he realized I was just tricking him to save myself from getting the scolding.
You just wait and watch, sir. Now that you are back, you will see what I will have to do at your home today. I grinned inwardly before turning around.
