Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 14 14: True intention

"Miss Miller, are you aware of the time the class begins?" Professor Rubik asked, glaring sharply at Eveline.

Professor Rubik valued punctuality more than the flimsy excuses students offer for missing class. But glancing at Eveline's pale complexion, he wondered what might have happened to her.

Despite the accusing looks directed at her, Eveline didn't waver and said, "I apologize, Professor. I was running behind schedule because of an urgent matter."

Students began to whisper hearing Eveline's response. Some even threw disgusting stares at her that caused Professor Rubik to raise his voice.

"Silence!" Scanning the entire room with his stern eyes he silenced them before bringing back his gaze on Eveline.

Eveline would not have been spared by Rubik, but he could not just stand by and watch one of the top students miss such an important class, so he allowed her to go to class without saying anything else.

Because of Eveline's outstanding academic record and flawless study habits, all of the professors acknowledged her, and as a result, Rubik waived his rule and let her attend the lecture.

"Enter, but make sure you will not be late the next time." Eveline nodded contentedly in response to Professor Rubik's firm tone before taking her place at the desk.

"Such a shameless girl. I assumed she would have fled, covering her face, after being discovered shamelessly. Nevertheless, observe how unperturbed she is." A student seated behind Eveline mumbled.

"I am curious as to why Gabriel found her attractive. She is such a cheapo, always clinging to boys. Is he even aware that she is also having affairs with Daniel and Stefan?" the other said.

The girls made crude remarks about Eveline while she sat there in silence, but Tiffany's lack of interest in their comments made her curious.

Despite sitting next to her, she did not even dare to look at her.

'Tiffany, I will not let you win this time. You did everything to ruin my life, but not anymore. Now that I am back, I won't let you destroy me this time

Eveline promised herself before darting her gaze back at the podium.

After hearing from Stefan that Eveline had decided to attend the class, Gabriel waited for her outside the college building. Though he was irritated by her intransigence, he was unable to force his way into the classroom and confront her.

But more than just venting his annoyance, he was curious as to who took those photos.
