Chapter 1859

When Karina arrived at the classroom, the bell rang the moment she stepped in.

Glancing around, she saw that all the seats were neatly filled. Hurriedly, she found a spot in the guest section and sat down.

Her presence naturally drew curious glances from the students. It wasn't every day a guest showed up in Professor Cruz's class-something that had likely never happened before.

Professor Cruz, elderly and slow on his feet, arrived late, long after the bell had rung. He walked in leisurely, clutching a thermos, exuding a relaxed air. Dressed in a simple jacket, he looked more like someone out for a stroll than a professor about to deliver a lecture. "Hello, class," he greeted warmly as he reached the podium, smiling at the students.

Karina joined in, her voice blending with the others.

Expecting the lecture to begin, she took out her laptop, notebook, and pen, ready to take notes.

But then Professor Cruz looked directly at her, still smiling. "Today, we have a new student joining us. I'm delighted to welcome her."
