Chapter 425
“You’re the only one insinuating that Professor Reece is an idiot. Don’t make it my problem. Also, it’s none of your business who I’m visiting at the hospital, and it’s none of your concern how the professor will punish me.
“I don’t need you fanning the flames here. Anyone who could get into this university can think for themselves. You’re a fool if you think Professor Reece can’t tell you’re trying to stir up trouble here.”
Reece heard what she said and regarded Frankie coldly. However, that didn’t mean he would let Bonnie do whatever she pleased.
“My stand remains the same, Bonnie. If you take a step out of this door, I’m going to flunk you. I’ll make it impossible for you to graduate from this university!”
She cast a nonchalant glance at him. Then, she left the lecture hall without any hesitation.
Reece was so pissed off that he almost passed out. Taking a blackboard eraser, he hammered it on the podium. “I’ve been a professor for a long time, but I’ve never seen anyone as insolent as her!”
Frankie almost couldn’t stop himself from sneering when he saw how pissed off the professor was.
‘It won’t be long now. Bonnie’s going to get her comeuppance.
‘As far as I’m concerned, the university president wasn’t involved in Natalee’s incident. Bonnie must’ve pulled some wicked tricks and got a hold of

On the other side, Bonnie arrived at the hospital. She looked at Russell’s medical report, and
her delicate brows furrowed.
“Don’t worry about it, Bonnie. It’s not that serious.” Russell’s face
smiled.

“You know I have medical knowledge, Russell. I know what’s happening with you, and it doesn’t look good.” She checked his pulse.
It was so weak that she could barely feel it.
“You shouldn’t worry about the university for the time being. Instead, you need to rest.”
“You’re right.” The older man smiled warmly. “I’m leaving the university in your care from here on out. I believe it’ll grow stronger with you at its helm. Pyralis University will be able

to mold more students into bright minds!”
Raising her hand, she rubbed her eyebrow helplessly. She knew he’d thrust his task to her before she came to the hospital.
“You can’t turn it down, Bonnie! If you do, I’ll have to return to work.”
She knew he was trying to win her sympathy, but that didn’t mean she could let him go to the university in his current state.

“I can promise that I’ll help run the university for now. As for the position of the university president…” Before she could finish, he sighed and cut her off.
“I know you don’t care about titles and fame, Bonnie. You might’ve thrown yourself into the scientific research, but you didn’t do it for praise from the general public or the country.
“You did it because you love it. It’s meaningful to you. Although you put on a calm face every time you manage to develop something, I know, deep down, you’re more than thrilled about it.”
Lowering her gaze, she remained quiet. What Russell said hit home.
“However, university education is equally meaningful, especially at Pyralis University. All sorts of highly talented people have gathered here. Once they succeed in their fields, I have no doubt they will become pillars of our country!
“Just take a look at your classmate, Natalee. At first, she was so proud that she got into the university that she became sloppy. She hasn’t received any outstanding scores since she
arrived.
“I looked into her background a little. She used to be the best student in high school, getting the highest score in every single subject. She sacrificed a lot to achieve what she achieved.
“Natalee was one of the talents willing to commit herself to her study. If you hadn’t confronted her and made her see the error of her ways, she would’ve ruined the rest of her life. Are you going to tell me what you did there is meaningless?” Russell tried his best to persuade her.
