Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

The professor slumped into his chair and let out a deep sigh after finishing his words.

What a tactic he was using!

The other two lecturers in the same office looked at Colin and me with a mix of envy, worry, and sympathy.

I could only cry in frustration in my heart. The professor had labeled me as a stumbling block.

Why was I being accused like that by the professor? I was just trying to see if it was possible to turn it down. It didn't mean that Colin would definitely reject the offer. Was it really necessary to get so angry?

Getting angry was bad for the old man's health. He had to take care of himself. And all this frowning and glaring wasn't going to help the teamwork among the faculty.
