Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 429
Arthur tried looking for Donovan everywhere.
At the same time, Donovan came back from the washroom.
When Arthur saw Donovan, he quickly rushed up to him, grabbed his sleeve, and exclaimed, “Mr. Baxter, I’ve finally found you!”
“What’s the matter?” Donovan asked wearily.
He was up all night, not just preparing for classes, but also studying the Advanced Mathematics questions done by Arielle. He didn’t want to tell others that he still couldn’t comprehend Arielle’s answers.
After all, no teacher would allow his student to be smarter than him. Moreover, that particular student didn’t excel academically nor have good manners.
Arthur didn’t notice the fatigue on Donovan’s face as he was completely immersed in his excitement. “Mr. Baxter, why didn’t you tell me that you have a student like Arielle before?”
Upon hearing Arielle’s name, Donovan instantly furrowed his brows as he instinctively thought that Arielle had caused trouble.
At this moment, there were a dozen lecturers in the office. So he immediately stopped Arthur from continuing by saying, “Professor Sleight, let’s take the conversation elsewhere. I don’t want to disturb the other lecturers.”
Donovan had been transferred over to Jadeborough University from Maxwell University. In a way, he always felt that he was better than the other Jadeborough University lecturers, so he didn’t want those lecturers to know that his preparatory class had a bad student like Arielle.
However, Arthur shook his hand dismissively and said, “It’s okay. I know them well. I’m sure that they won’t mind us. Anyway, I just want to tell you that Arielle
is…”
Before Arthur could finish his sentence, Donovan had dragged him out of the office.
Arthur was confused by his action. “Mr. Baxter, what are you doing?”
Donovan sighed and apologized, “I do have two or three students like Arielle, Professor Sleight. I hope that you remain silent about them. They will be leaving soon anyway.”
Upon hearing that, Arthur was even more confused. He asked, “Why are they leaving? And what do you mean by two or three students? Do you mean you have more students like Arielle? That many?”
Donovan nodded in reply. “Yes, because I’ve given them a timeline. If they couldn’t be in the top 20 in the next monthly exam, they would have to leave. Please be assured that the exam won’t be easy to pass. I can’t let Arielle and the others stay.”
At that point, Arthur finally realized that he and Donovan were talking about different things.
After a moment of hesitation, he said, “Mr. Baxter, I don’t understand. Why would you want to force Arielle to leave the class? She’s an excellent student.”
Without registering Arthur’s words, Donovan blurted, “She’s a bad student. Of course…”
Midway through his sentence, Donovan looked at Arthur and asked in shock, “Wait, did you just say excellent?”
“Yes!” Arthur nodded with force. “She’s amazing! She speaks Ustranasion with the Lightspring accent. Do you know about Lightspring? All of Epea’s nobles originated from there. Their accent is the best among all the Ustranasion-speaking countries. Many nobles even buy houses there to learn their accent.”
Donovan frowned as he didn’t believe Arthur. “Are you joking with me, Professor Sleight? Arielle? Do you know how she got into my class?”
“I don’t,” replied Arthur.
“She paid her way in! I hate students like her! Are you sure that she has the accent?”
Arthur was stunned to hear that, but after a moment, he said firmly, “Even if she paid her way in, it doesn’t mean that she’s a bad student. At least, her Ustranasion is better than mine. If you don’t believe me, why don’t
you check it out yourself?”
