Chapter 645
When Arielle looked at the papers Donovan handed her, she confirmed it was an application form for student loans. She couldn’t help but stare at it in disbelief.
If it weren’t for the fact that they were indoors, she would have looked at the sky to spot the Sun’s location.
“What are you daydreaming about? Fill it in now, and I’ll send it to Mr. Brown.” Donovan frowned as he urged her.
Seeing the impatience on Donovan’s face, Arielle realized that he wasn’t trying to mock her or chastise her for using her phone. He genuinely wanted to help.
What happened to him? Maybe he isn’t as bad as I pictured him to be? Maybe, I was too harsh on him. After all, he’s a man who is virtuous and driven by morality. He must have disliked me because he assumed that I got into the university with connections. Despite his hatred toward me, he’s willing to put it aside and offer a helping hand. It looks like Maxwell University still maintained its standards. However, is he being genuine?
There were countless questions floating around Arielle’s mind.
Seeing how Arielle did not respond, Donovan picked up the application form and waved it in front of her face. “Arielle, I’m talking to you. Did you not hear me?”
Finally, Arielle snapped out of her daze. She glanced at the paper in Donovan’s grasp. After a brief moment of
hesitation, she shook her head to deny it. “Mr. Baxter, thank you for your generous offer, but I have the money to support myself.”
Since Arielle was a person who didn’t hold grudges, she expressed her gratitude to Donovan for trying to help her.
But the moment the words left her lips, Donovan’s frown deepened
“You have the money?” His eyes narrowed suspiciously. “Don’t you mean Jared or Henry’s money?” he asked.
Immediately, Arielle stared at Donovan in astonishment. “Mr. Baxter, what are you implying?” she exclaimed.
Donovan scoffed as his gaze darkened. “Even at such a young age, you refuse to earn money with your own hard work. Must you swindle the money of other men? After getting kicked out of your home, do you plan on becoming a mistress by leeching on their money?”
Arielle turned pale when she heard Donovan’s mocking words.
“I never took their money!” she retorted heatedly.
“Oh? I know why you didn’t take their money. Their wealth isn’t enough for you, right? Vinson’s money is what you are truly after. I guess his family can afford to take in a disowned daughter like you. As your professor, let me give you a piece of advice. If you keep up this
stubborn attitude of yours, you will be reduced to nothing but Vinson’s lowly mistress. Stop trying to ruin yourself!” Donovan countered.
“Mr. Baxter!” Arielle raised her voice in anger. “Please refrain from using such crude words to sully me. I will never become someone’s mistress, and I certainly won’t ruin myself!”
“Is that so? Then why are you so reluctant to fill in the application form?”
“I have my own money to support myself. I have no wish to take the position of another student who might need the student loan more than me.”
Since the number of places for the school’s student loans was limited, Arielle didn’t want to deprive another student of their opportunity because she had her own money
Yet, Donovan was unconvinced. “You have your own money? What is your source of income?” he asked
coldly.
Arielle opened her mouth to reply, but the words became stuck in her throat.
I can’t say that I’m San – the founder and CEO of Sann Group. That will expose my identity.
When Arielle could not muster a response, Donovan’s harsh gaze softened. “Take my advice. Fill in the application form and study hard to get in the top twenty
ranks for this month’s evaluation. If you put in the effort, you might have a chance to study at Maxwell University,” he said gently.
