Chapter 187
Ophelia looked at the lawyer, her voice calm and indifferent, saying, “I will respect any decision the school makes, but I’ll also reserve the right to take legal action. She learned this trick from Kenneth.
Expelling Lesly was the best outcome for her. After what happened, keeping her here was the biggest punishment for her. After speaking. Ophelia brushed past the others and entered the classroom. The whole classroom went silent instantly. Meanwhile, Lesly followed Zackary to the office to sort out the issue.
During the lesson, everyone listened attentively, feeling it was unfortunate to miss even a single word from Ophelia.
After class, a few girls cautiously gathered near the lectern
One girl called, “Ms. Spencer.”
Ophelia was packing her lecture materials when she instinctively brushed her fingers over the embroidery on Enzo’s notebook. She asked. “Do you have any questions?”
Rex’s sister
The girl replied, “No, Ms. Spencer. Are you Rex’s sister!”
Another girl asked. “Ms. Spencer, are you familiar with those celebrities?”
Ophelia looked up, her gaze scanning those girls. Everyone she looked at couldn’t help but feel nervous. They quickly said, We’re just asking out of curiosity. Then, they quickly scuttled away.
Carly walked over and asked, “Ms. Spencer, are you going to the library today?”
Ophelia replied, “Not todays I haven’t finished the books I borrowed last time. You’re in the student council, right?”
Carly replied, “Yes.
Ophelia asked politely, “Could you do me a favor?”
Carly was, of course, willing and nodded eagerly.
Ophelia asked, “Do you have the transcripts and records of the senior students from the architecture and management departments?”
Carly replied, “Yes. But I can’t access them by myself. I’ll need to get approval from the department heads.”
Ophelia said, “Alright, just tell them it’s for me. If they have any issues, they can come to me.”
In fact, Ophelia could ask Zackary for help, he would surely be more than willing. But thinking about his sly smile and the dirty things he had done in the past made her not want to talk to him at all,
She remembered that when a girl Zackary had mistreated ended her life, it caused a huge stir at the school, but the administration hushed it up
The punishment for Zackary was just a temporary suspension from work. The girl’s death couldn’t bring severe legal consequences for him.
Ophelia suddenly thought of something. She glanced at where Lesly sat, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed. A layer of coldness was in her eyes.
Carly asked, “Ms Spencer, is everything alright?”

Ophelia replied, “Nothing just get me the transcripts as soon as you can.” With that, she briskly left the classroom and headed for the faculty building.
As soon as she got to Zackary’s office door, her sharp ears picked up the sounds from inside.
Zackary said, “If it weren’t for me helping you with this, you’d be fired by now. So, tell me, how will you repay me, Lesly?”
Ophelia thought, He is playing the same dirty tricks as in the previous life. Even the words are nearly the same.
Ophelia knocked hard on the door.
Zackary’s wandering hand quickly pulled back. “Who’s there?” he asked, his voice irritated.
Startled. Z
Ophelia tried to open the door, only to find it locked. “Open the door,” she said with a frosty tone.
After a moment, Zackary walked over and opened the door. His face was beaming as he said, “Ms. Spencer, what brings you here? I was just having a word with Lesly.”
Ophelia cast a composed glance around the office.
Lesly stood by the coffee table, her hands clenched tightly in front of her, her fingers nearly digging into her palms. Her head was lowered, almost shrinking into her shoulders.
Ophelia said, Tm here for my student. Since the school isn’t planning to expel her, shouldn’t she be back in my class?” She briefly glanced at the door lock.
Zackary wasn’t the slightest bit embarrassed. He replied, “Exactly! The principal and the lawyer just left. As the head of the design department. I needed to chat with her. This situation has such a big impact. Don’t you agree?”
“Have you done talking now?” Ophelia asked. She was disgusted by the sight of Zackary. She thought. Who knows how many girls have been victimized by him?
Zackary replied. “Yes, we’ve finished talking. Lesly, go back and reflect on your actions, okay?”
Lesly kept her head down, too scared to meet Zackary’s gaze.
After leaving the office, Ophelia glanced at Lesly and asked, “Did you get wronged?”
Lesly quickly looked up, tears brimming in her eyes, and stared at Ophelia in surprise as if to ask, “How did you know?”
Ophelia said, “If it happens again, remember to keep evidence. Aren’t you good at creating online discussions? Use that skill properly.” Without realizing it, her tone became increasingly like a teacher’s.
“Ms. Spencer, I’m sorry. Thank you for earlier, Lesly mumbled, biting her lip so hard it nearly bled. She indeed was sorry. Her biggest regret in life was spreading false rumors about Ophelia online.
Ophelia gave Lesly a cold and distant glance, still holding no good feelings towards her. But since they were both girls, she couldn’t stand seeing Lesly suffer like this
Carly was very efficient and quickly sent the organized grades and information to Ophelia.
The job of recruiting people was left to Chloe. Ophelia was going to Waston with Kenneth for the weekend..
Waston was the capital of Heloria, comparable to Dellanex in economic development, and it was just a two–hour flight away.
They arrived on Friday afternoon.

Kenneth also had a place in Waston. It was a spacious apartment over 8,000 square feet in the city center. Through the large floor–to–ceiling windows, one could see the city’s most iconic building.
At night, the view of the city’s bustling lights was amazing. It was perfectly positioned for a great sight.
“What’s the Heloria Trade Summit?” Ophelia asked curiously as he toured the place. It was the first time she’d heard of it.
Kenneth, seated on the gray sofa by the huge window, beckoned Ophelia.
Without any words, Ophelia naturally walked over and sat down next to him
Kenneth held her hands, his warm thumbs gently rubbing the ring on Ophelia’s ring finger.
Kenneth explained. “The Heloria Trade Summit is a communication conference among Heloria businesses. It happens every three years, just before the election, with top political figures in attendance.
The president of Heloria and his wife will be there too. It’s just another fancy business dinner. Only Kenneth could casually describe such a grand event as an ordinary dinner.
Ophelia said, “So, can I understand it as a more public version of a private dinner for gathering support?”
Kenneth raised an eyebrow and said, “My wife is really smart.” While saying that, he lovingly ruffled Ophelia’s hair, his eyes.
full of affection.
“Mr. Sinclair, Mr. West has arrived,” Ray reported as Noah confidently walked into the room.
Noah said, “Kenneth, why didn’t you tell me you were coming earlier? I should have prepared a warm reception. Hey, kid! You’re here, too? Joining your dad at the Heloria Trade Summit
Ophelia was speechless. She thought, ‘Can’t we just let this joke die already?
Noah, sensing the intense gaze from Kenneth on the couch, quickly corrected himself. He said, “I meant husband, not dad, my mistake.”
He chuckled cheekily, which was completely out of sync with his otherwise stern and serious demeanor.
Kenneth didn’t bother arguing with Noah. He asked, “Did you go back to your family?”
