My Sweetheart

Chapter 348 Openly and Brazenly

“Ms. Fleming, please understand, as you’re at Ocean University, you must follow our rules.”

“Rules?” scoffed Claire. “You made a whole scene to make Joseph swoop to your rescue, destroying our lab in the process, and you talk to me about rules? To still be a student, and pull that kind of stunt… despicable.”

Gradually, others began to tune in to their conversation, and then Kathy understood: they all think she’d purposely gotten herself locked in, forcing Joseph to come save her. But she’d been trapped with a poisonous gas, it could have killed her!

Kathy pursed her lips. “I don’t know why you’re all so prejudiced against me. When the lab was destroyed, I was a victim too.”

“A victim? You seem fine to me. You and Joseph have a complicated relationship, go speak with him directly,” said Claire coldly.

“Do you really want him to hear about this?” Kathy’s voice grew cooler. “You don’t follow the university’s rules, and even spread rumors about your boss… I doubt the company will let you get away with that.”

The voices around them grew quiet. No one wanted Joseph to know of this. They only dared bully Kathy. And so finally Claire passed papers to Kathy and said reluctantly, “This is our content for today. Have a look.”

Kathy took them, facing all those mocking faces, and felt worse immediately. Leaving the lab, she took deep breaths, trying to calm down. Then, going to Professor Watson’s office, she tried to regulate her mood.

But he had sharp eyes, and saw something was off with her. “Who’s bullied my student?”

“Nobody,” she replied, handing the papers over.

“I heard there was an accident at the Josephs’ Group Lap. What happened?” he asked instead.

He had no idea she’d been hurt. “The electricity went out, and all the instruments are in the process of being repaired.”
