After running out of the campus and boarding a bus, Yvonne and Natalie finally calmed down.
"Qasim is just too bold. How dare he do that on campus? We must report him to the administration tomorrow and get him expelled." Yvonne was furious. Natalie nodded heavily.
Qasim almost assaulted her. There was no need for Yvonne to remind her because she would never forgive that guy! As for Tobias, the meeting was very successful and the contract was signed.
He rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little tired.
Benjamin approached him and reported, "Mr. Whitlock, I've booked a flight back to Agaphen City tomorrow." Tobias nodded.
It was already ten at night.
What was Natalie doing? The thought suddenly occurred to Tobias.
There was a short ring from his mobile phone. It was a text message.
Tobias unlocked his screen to check.
It was a photo from an unknown number. It was a photo of Natalie. Tobias' handsface froze.
The next day, Natalie got up early in the morning.
She did not even have tfor breakfast as she rushed to her university. She wanted to report Qasim to vent her frustrations.
Yvonne arrived early in the morning too and they went to the vice principal office together.

They took into account the reputation of the university and Natalie was not harmed the previous day, therefore they did not lodge a police report. Instead, they waited for the management of the university to deal with it! They believed that the university would be fair.
However, Mr. Vance cast a glance at them before sighing, "Natalie, you should go to Mr. Aaron's office." Mr. Aaron was the principal of Agaphen University.
Mr. Vance asked Yvonne to return to the classroom before bringing Natalie to the principal's office.
As soon as they arrived at the principal's office, Natalie spotted Mr. Aaron bowing and apologizing to a couple obsequiously.
The woman was wearing expensive clothes while the man was exuding an impressive aura.
"Natalie, cquickly! Apologize to Qasim's mother now!" Mr. Aaron had keen eyes and he immediately spotted Natalie when she walked in. Natalie was puzzled.
Mrs. Lawson walked to Natalie and asked in a condescending tone, "Is this the girl who kicked my son?" "Her nis Natalie Godfrey. Natalie, apologize now! Qasim was admitted to the hospital because you kicked him!" Mr. Aaron informed Natalie.
Natalie immediately understood.
"He bulliedin the first place!" Natalie's face was stiff.
She was too embarrassed to tell what Qasim did to her, hence she could only explain it in a subtle way.
Mr. Aaron's face darkened.
Natalie was out of her mind. Did she not know who Qasim's parents were? "Natalie, stop spewing nonsense and apologize now. Maybe Qasim's parents would be kind enough to let it slide. You might be spared from being expelled. Otherwise, I can't protect you," Mr. Aaron concluded. Natalie's eyes were filled with disbelief.
She cin the hopes that the university would help her. However, Mr. Aaron ignored her remarks and asked her to apologize? "Mr. Aaron, how can you protect Qasim? I'm going to call the police!" Natalie clenched her fists.
"Call the police?" Mrs. Lawson sneered and retorted, "Do you know that the chief of police needs to bow to my husband? You still want to call the police?" Mr. Aaron was anxious. He whispered in Natalie's ear, "Natalie, you can't afford to offend Qasim. Hurry up and apologize to his parents. Otherwise, the university will suffer too. His parents are very powerful and no one will be able to help you." "He bulliedand I will never apologize!" Natalie was stubborn.
"Honey, call the chief of police. This woman is an adult and she kicked my precious son. Tell the director to sentence her to ten years in jail," Mrs. Lawson said sharply.
Mr. Lawson cast a glance at Natalie before exiting the office to make a phone call.
The director still wanted to help Natalie.
His voice was filled with panic. "Natalie, don't be hasty. Do you want to ruin your life? Do you really want to go to jail?" "I've done nothing wrong!" Natalie insisted.
The director lowered his voice to make sure that Mrs. Lawson could not hear him.. "I know you've done nothing wrong but that doesn't work here. This world is unfair. Those with power would determine who is right. Apologize quickly or you'll just be digging your own grave." Natalie's face was pale.
She gnashed her teeth and she even left a blood mark on her lips! She needed to apologize! It was obvious that she was humiliated but why did she need to apologize? She could not do it! Yet, should she persist? She understood what Mr. Aaron meant. She could not afford to mess with Qasim's family.
"It seems that this university is indeed a renowned university. You even bully a girl like that. You really live up to your name," a cold voice suddenly said.
Natalie froze and stared at the man in disbelief.
It was Tobias! Why did he come? Mr. Aaron wanted to retort out of reflex when he heard someone questioning his university. However, he was timid when he spotted who it was.
The intruder was domineering and it was obvious that he was not an ordinary man. Mr. Aaron decided not to get himself involved in it.
Mrs. Lawson was taken aback and stared at Tobias suspiciously.
Tobias looked a little familiar to her but she could not remember who he was.

However, it did not matter. Her husband was the mayor's secretary. No one would dare to offend her E husband.
"Bullying her? She kicked my precious son in the first place. My husband is am the mayor's secretary. He won't let this slide!" Mrs. Lawson exclaimed suggestively. She stated her husband's identity to warn the man. Tobias lowered his eyes at Natalie.
Natalie complained, "Her son bulliedfirst, so I kicked him. He deserved it!" Tobias frowned.
"He didn't do anything to me!" Natalie added instinctively.
She acted like she would no longer be pure to Tobias if Qasim really took advantage of her.
In fact, what did it have to do with Tobias? They were just pretending to be married.
"You've done the right thing!" Tobias replied placidly.
"You, you!" Mrs. Lawson was exasperated. "I'm going to throw both of you in jail." As soon as she finished, Mr. Lawson cback.
"I've made an arrangement with the chief of police. This girl has seriously injured my son and she'll be imprisoned for at least eight years!" Mr. Lawson said.
"Arrest this man too," Mrs. Lawson shouted.
Mr. Lawson followed her gaze and he froze.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Whitlock." Mr. Lawson was very experienced. His expression returned to normal in a blink of an eye.
He rushed forward warmly in an attempt to shake hands with Tobias.
However, Tobias did not move.
"Who gave you the authority to do that? Eight years of imprisonment?" Tobias asked coldly.
Mr. Lawson was startled and he immediately forced a smile. "It's all a misunderstanding." Mrs. Lawson stomped and interrupted, "What misunderstanding? This girl landed my son in the hospital!" Mr. Lawson's face darkened. What a foolish woman!
