Mr. Law's Official Announcement: He is a Wife-Doting Fanatic!

Cecilia Vaughn’s almond-shaped eyes darted around, her expression thoughtful.

It’s not unreasonable for her to speculate this way; after all, Katherine North’s character is quite poor. Even before Cecilia Vaughn knew her, Katherine was already targeting her.

Later, Katherine North managed to hook up with Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn, forming an infamous trio that one has to be wary of.

...

No matter how unwilling Katherine North was, Sean Grant still strode towards Cecilia Vaughn’s seat.

Bella Prescott was stunned, even forgetting to intervene.

As Sean Grant approached the seat, Katherine North’s legs seemed to go weak, her lips turning unnaturally pale.

When Chloe Alden instructed her to sabotage quietly, she genuinely hadn’t intended to target this handsome guy!

Who knew Sean Grant would choose Cecilia Vaughn’s seat!

...

Outside the classroom door, Cecilia Vaughn stared directly at Katherine North, increasingly convinced there was indeed something wrong with her.

Katherine North was entirely unaware anyone was watching her, her mind in turmoil, hesitating whether to confess the truth when suddenly a cold, stern male voice echoed in the classroom.

”What is this?”

Sean Grant’s long, slender fingers held three tacks.

The sharp tips of the tacks stunned everyone.

Apparently, these three tacks were found on Cecilia Vaughn’s chair?!

If Sean Grant hadn’t noticed, who would have checked for such small items on a chair?

If someone accidentally sat down, their rear would surely be pricked!

...

The thought of that scenario sent chills down the spine of students present.

They came to Stellerton University to study, not to engage in petty rivalries, especially in such a prestigious institution; who would have thought someone would viciously harm others like this?

Sean Grant’s voice was cold.

”Professor, please investigate thoroughly.”

Professor Sanders was stunned too. Sean Grant isn’t just any ordinary Veridian, he’s a Vessarian national. If a foreign student gets hurt, there will definitely be heavier penalties for the perpetrator, it wouldn’t be good for Stellerton University’s reputation to have such incidents.

”Alright, alright, I’ll get someone to check the surveillance now.”

Sean Grant placed the three tacks on the podium, then bypassed Cecilia Vaughn’s seat, choosing to sit in the far corner of the right side of the classroom.

In the same last row, sitting opposite Cecilia Vaughn.

...

The students present couldn’t help but whisper among themselves.

Of course, they knew it wasn’t targeted at Sean Grant. After all, he just arrived, no word about him, and his seat was chosen randomly.

So, those three tacks were clearly aimed at Cecilia Vaughn.

Instantly, all eyes shifted to Cecilia Vaughn standing at the doorway as punishment for being late.

Especially Bella Prescott, who was almost scared to death seeing the tacks, only grateful her friend was late and punished to stand, otherwise Cecilia would have suffered.

...

Professor Sanders realized this too, finally beckoning to Cecilia Vaughn.

”Classmate Vaughn, come here too, see if there’s anything else besides the tacks.”

”By the way, did you offend anyone lately?”

Facing everyone’s scrutiny, Cecilia Vaughn calmly walked in, but suddenly stopped beside Katherine North.

Without saying a word, she merely smiled faintly at Katherine North.

Katherine North’s composure wasn’t that strong, her temple throbbed, and she became flustered.

”Cecilia Vaughn, why are you looking at me that way! I have no grudge against you!”

”Earlier, I advised Sean not to sit in the last row because he’s a Vessarian, never been to Veridia before, I didn’t know there were tacks on your seat!”

”Besides, Professor Sanders already ordered a surveillance check. If I didn’t do it, I won’t admit it!”

Katherine North felt guilty at first, but as she spoke, she gained confidence, standing upright.

—Fortunately, Chloe Alden promised her to destroy today’s monitoring from the art department, so she wouldn’t be afraid.

With no evidence, Cecilia Vaughn couldn’t convict her with mere words!

...

Seeing Katherine North still stubborn, Cecilia Vaughn knew the surveillance was probably already compromised, yet she remained unperturbed.

”Classmate North, I didn’t say it’s you, whether you’ve targeted me or not, depends on conscience.”

Without waiting for Katherine North’s reply, Cecilia Vaughn returned to her seat.

Katherine North’s face alternated between red and white, finally sitting down in anger.

...

The scene made everyone present look slightly strange.

—Right, who said Katherine North and Cecilia Vaughn never had a feud?

In the recently concluded campus beauty contest, everyone knew Cecilia Vaughn should have won, yet she ended up only fifth, and Katherine took first.

And it’s heard that within the student council, Katherine North teamed up with Chloe Alden, the vice president, to bully newcomer Cecilia Vaughn.

No matter who placed the tacks, everyone felt sympathy for Cecilia Vaughn.

Such a beautiful girl being targeted like this—how pitiful!

...

Soon, the results of the surveillance checked by security came out.

Professor Sanders’ expression was serious.

”The perpetrator was very cunning; the art department’s surveillance was all destroyed, repair won’t come until tomorrow.”

Though Professor Sanders was a bit rigid, he was extremely upright. Unable to find the culprit now left him troubled too.

...

Upon hearing this, Katherine North felt her burden lifted.

See! Chloe Alden’s uncle isn’t just the director at ASC but also the deputy head of Stellerton’s broadcasting department, destroying a surveillance system is a piece of cake!

With no evidence, Katherine North then assumed her class leader demeanor and stood up.

”Professor, since it can’t be resolved immediately, let’s continue with the class and not delay the lesson.”

”Alright.”

...

Professor Sanders coughed lightly.

”Next, let’s discuss the homework from last class, each person was to draw a sunset scene, let me highlight a few commendable students.”

Using a projector, Professor Sanders displayed each student’s creations, Katherine North’s work appeared first.

”Katherine North’s painting is the best, with clear layers and strong lighting effects, Grade A.”

Cecilia Vaughn stared at the projection, having to admit that although Katherine’s character was flawed, she wasn’t just a pretty face; she was skilled in painting too.

...

Receiving praise, Katherine North gave Cecilia Vaughn a triumphant look, even tainted with slight mockery, enjoying the spectacle.

Was there more ”surprise” than just the tacks today?

Cecilia Vaughn slightly furrowed her brows, suddenly feeling a bad premonition.

Sure enough, after Professor Sanders finished announcing all the outstanding works, her name wasn’t mentioned.

In the art department, Cecilia Vaughn’s skills were also top-notch, praised often, and she had high confidence in her last assignment.

...

At this moment, Professor Sanders’ expression turned stern.

”Now, let’s view those subpar, perfunctory works.”

Soon, at the center of the screen appeared a countryside sunset painting, signed off by Cecilia Vaughn...
