One Night With My Alpha Professor by Eve Above Story

Chapter 210

Audrey

“Audrey! Wait!”

Edwin’s voice echoed down the bond, but I didn’t-couldn’t-stop. I needed air, needed to breathe.

My feet carried me forward, tears blurring my vision as I pushed past startled students and faculty. Finally, I came to a door leading outside, and the cool morning air hit me like a brick wall. It was all I could do to stagger off to the side and breathe deeply, my lungs struggling to take it all in.

Mr. Black had sabotaged me yet again… But why? Was he still trying to get back at me for what had happened last year, or was this something else?

Edwin’s gray eyes widened in disbelief. “What? How is that possible? Your work is always incredible.”

Justice

“This is ridiculous,” he growled, his voice low and dangerous. “I’m going to go talk to them right now. They’ll change their minds once I explain what’s really going on. That bastard is clearly up to something, and I won’t let him get away with it.”

But as Edwin turned on his heel to storm back to the presentation room, I grabbed his arm, feeling the muscles tense under my touch.
