Chapter 710
Not only was Donovan cold toward Queenie, but he also despised her.
“What if I say no?”
“That’s not going to happen. You will have to be responsible, and the only solution to this catastrophe is to marry me.” Queenie crossed her arms confidently.
“In your dreams!” Donovan pushed her away.
Queenie fell onto the floor and scraped her knee.
“Donovan Baxter!” She was up in arms.
The heartless man turned a deaf ear to her screams, got a cab, and headed straight to Jadeborough University.
Reporters were churning articles and posts, trying to remold Queenie’s image into a temptress who loved having flings.
Her fans, after seeing the pictures of her and Donovan under the same sheets, were shocked to the core. They were convinced that she was a temptress and started bombarding her with menacing remarks.
When Ava and Alice saw the news, they immediately contacted Queenie.
She rushed to the Baxters and insisted that she was framed.
Being a teacher all her life, Alice had never come across
anything like this. She almost cried, and with a quivering voice, asked, “Who framed you? What do we do now? I still can’t reach Don, though. He’s fine, right?”
“Yeah, he’s not that popular online. A hundred percent of the comments are directed at me. He won’t get into any trouble, but… Mrs. Baxter, it seemed like I need to get married to Donovan as soon as possible.”
Although she was still anxious, Alice couldn’t conceal her delight. “Is that it? Getting married?”
“Yes. If he declared that he’s single, and then we get married, this whole disaster will be over.”
Not only would the disaster come to an end, but it would also attract Queenie more fans. The fans who had turned their backs on her would regret their actions and would be more loyal to her in the future.
Alice bobbed her head in agreement. “Then let’s do it. Once my husband gets back to Jadeborough, we’ll start planning the wedding.”
“Okay.” Queenie smiled, but something felt fishy.
That was easy. Could it be a trap? If yes, what would they trap me for? Bah! I’m just thinking too much.
She shook herself out of her worries,
Since things had gotten so bad at this point, she had no other option but to marry Donovan. To her, it didn’t
matter who her husband was if it wasn’t Vinson. Under one condition, though—he had to be in her league.
Donovan was from a family of scholars and like her, graduated from Maxwell University. Things would only get better in the future. They won’t be like Zachary, who was loathed by millions.
Queenie believed that Donovan would yield in pretty soon.
True to her expectations, Marcus called Donovan into his office when the latter got back to the university.
Marcus slammed hard on his table. He was boiling.
“Donovan! Look what you’ve got yourself into!” He then shoved his phone into Donovan’s hands
Donovan was still oblivious to the fact that the pictures of him and Queenie on the same bed were all over the internet. His face scrunched when he saw them.
“Mr. Brown, it’s all a misunderstanding. I’m not married and we’re just—”
“I don’t care if you’re married or not. If the press knows that you’re a tutor here, it will taint the name of the university. Fix it before they find out who you’re. In the meantime, you can go on leave. I’ll get other tutors to cover your classes.”
“But, the exam for the preparatory class is just around the corner. The rest of the tutor won’t be able to—”
“Enough! If you actually cared for your students, you shouldn’t have been involved in a scandal like this!”
Donovan’s gloom deepened as he walked out of the principal’s office.
Just when he thought things couldn’t get any worse…
