Betrayed, Then Back For Blood

Chapter 84

Bring was a completely different person in class today compared to her energetic self during yesterday’s public lecture. She looked on and drowsy.

Barely five minutes into the lesson, her head was nearly buried in her book, eyes open wide in a desperate attempt to stay awake.

Yet Joshua, who was teaching at the podium, simply smiled at her, even when he caught her sneaking in a quick nap. He looked at her with the warmth of someone watching over their own child.

Sitting behind her, Thomas had been quietly observing the whole time. Ever since the public lecture, Briar’s talent and name had spread like wildfire across Shoneport University.

Those who used to mock her behind her back now didn’t even dare whisper.

Unexpectedly, she had gained quite a following. Many students were now considering joining the Traditional Medicine Department thanks to her captivating performance.

Still, Thomas couldn’t help but feel uneasy. He knew that Abbie’s anonymous post smearing Briar on the school forum was still up to see.

He had tried reaching out to the forum administrator to have it removed, but the response was baffling. They claimed they didn’t have the

authority to delete it.

That didn’t make sense. The administrator should have had the highest level of control. If even they couldn’t delete the post, then it probably

meant no one could.

It could only mean one thing the storm stirred up by that post wasn’t over yet

He had a strong feeling that Briar was behind it. Maybe she had told the admin not to delete the post because she wanted to track down the person responsible.

That was why Thomas had been closely watching her ever since she stepped into the lab building. Every time she left his sight, he would call Abble and tell her to stay away.
