Please come inside; it\u2019s quite chilly out here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yulia\u2019s tone was polite, and her smile was friendly.<\/p>\n<p>In response, Cherise gave a sweet smile of her own. \u201cNo need; let\u2019s talk here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yulia nodded. \u201cAlright, I\u2019m curious about why you\u2019re here, Ms. Leach.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFirst of all, congratulations on becoming head professor of the Traditional Medicine Department at Regalwood University again, Cherise said, looking straight at Yulia with false sincerity<\/p>\n<p>Yulia paused, surprised by the congratulations. \u201cThank you, but I still have much to learn from you. Many students in our department really like you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cherise\u2019s smile faded as she continued, \u201cMs. Muller, what do you think about Ms. Mellett\u2019s arrest?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yulia blinked, caught off guard by the question. \u201cI was shocked by Ms. Mellett\u2019s actions; it\u2019s quite unfortunate. She has great knowledge and a lot of teaching experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hearing this, Cherise chuckled softly, a hint of coldness in her voice.<\/p>\n<p>Yulia was confused by her attitude.<\/p>\n<p>After a moment, Cherise suddenly lifted her head and fixed a sharp gaze on Yulia. \u201cDid you poison her?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yulia\u2019s mind went blank as if a shockwave had hit her. She couldn\u2019t find the words.<\/p>\n<p>Cherise stood up straight, no longer leaning against the car, and moved closer to Yulia.<\/p>\n<p>In a whisper, she said, \u201cYour demeanor has changed; it\u2019s nothing like the passion you showed during the traditional medicine competition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Startled by her words, Yulia stammered, \u201cMs. Leach, what are you talking about? I\u2013I don\u2019t understand. Poisoning?<\/p>\n<p>Cherise scoffed and said, \u201cSince I was able to find your address and phone number, I was here full\u2013prepared. Camellia is your cousin, right? She visited Ms. Mellett the day before the exam.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat do you<\/p>\n<p>think that was about? Also, her call records show she contacted you before and after her visit to Ms. Mellent. Is<\/p>\n<p>1\/2<\/p>\n<p>09:37 Sat, Dec 14 GO<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 299<\/p>\n<p>that just a coincidence Cherise pressed relentlessly.<\/p>\n<p>Yulia could hardly believe how Cherise knew about her communication with Camellia and began to panie \u201cI don\u2019t kee how Camellia knows Ms. Mellett. Camellia has a big social circle. As for our calls, it\u2019s just normal; we\u2019re creasing and talk<\/p>\n<p>often.<\/p>\n<p>Cherise let out another cold laugh and placed her hand on Yulia shoulder.<\/p>\n<p>In that moment, Yulia felt as if a heavy weight had landed on her shoulders, making it hard to breathe, overwhelmed as if she were drowning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy first impression of you was good; getting your call logs would be easy for me. A fine young lady like you should not belittle herself.\u201d With that, Cherise released her grip on Yulia\u2019s shoulder and smiled as she opened the car door<\/p>\n<p>In one smooth motion, she started the engine, released the handbrake, and pressed the gas pedal.<\/p>\n<p>It felt like Cherise had just delivered the most terrifying message with the sweetest smile.<\/p>\n<p>All that was left behind, for Yulia, was a faint trail of exhaust fumes.<\/p>\n<p>Once Cherise\u2019s car disappeared, Yulia collapsed onto the ground, where the melting snow soaked into her clothes.<\/p>\n<p>A chill went through her, and her mind slowly cleared.<\/p>\n<p>An emotion that had been hidden inside her burst forth at that moment.<\/p>\n<p>Tears filled her eyes. \u201cI didn\u2019t want this. I truly didn\u2019t want to harm anyone. I can\u2019t understand why I\u2019ve become like this;) hate myself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCamellia said that if Ms. Mellett had no bad thoughts in her heart, she wouldn\u2019t be easily controlled. What should I do?\u201d After a moment, Yulia shivered as she pulled out her phone, her trembling fingers dialing a number.<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHello, I haven\u2019t congratulated you yet, head professor of the Traditional Medicine Department at Regalwood University came Camellia\u2019s voice when the call connected.<\/p>\n<p>Yulia, with red eyes and a choked voice, replied, \u201cCamellia, did we make a mistake?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Camellia sensed Yulia\u2019s distress. \u201cThe outcome is good, isn\u2019t it? You\u2019ve got your position back as head professor?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yulia shook her head vigorously while gripping the phone tightly. \u201cBut Cherise just came to see me, she knows everything. She is much stronger than I expected! It seems that she has a grip on all the details.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m scared! I think I\u2019ve made a serious mistake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u5b99<\/p>\n<p>SEND GIFT<\/p>\n<p>0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-324","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/324","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
