Chapter 171: Let’s Talk

As I walked around the campus, I couldn’t stop thinking about Joanna’s fake smile. When was I going to get rid of this woman?

Behind me, I suddenly heard the hum of a car. I looked back as I dodged to the side of the road.

Cars were not allowed to drive on our campus. All vehicles had to be parked in the parking lot at the school gate. Who would be so bold as to drive a car like this? Weren’t they afraid of being punished by the school?

I didn’t expect the moving car to stop right beside me. The driver rolled down the window. It was goddamn Joanna again.

I stood by the side of the road and glared at her. I said stiffly, “You’re not allowed to park here.”

Joanna tilted her head and smiled. “I’m the school director, so it doesn’t matter.”

School director?! How could she be the school director at her age? I thought of Michael and Sasha’s young faces completely different from their ages. The royal Lycan family wasn’t like normal werewolves. I had forgotten that I was also a member of the royal Lycan family.

Sasha also said Joanna’s parents and the royal Lycan family were friends. As we all knew, universities usually had financial groups behind them. If it was for family reasons, it was not surprising that Joanna could get a position as a school board member in our school.

I rolled my eyes and continued walking.

Why should I care about Joanna’s identity? She could park her car anywhere she wanted. Now that Sasha wasn’t around, I didn’t need to pretend to be polite to her.

“Cecily, wait.”

Joanna got out of the car and grabbed my hand. I instinctively threw my hand back, but her grip was tight. I realized she was very powerful, making me even more afraid of her.

“Let go of me,” I whispered.

Joanna looked at me innocently, then let go of her hand and acted like an angel. “I just want to talk to you.”

“Talk about what? Why are you here now instead of following Michael to investigate the case?” I mocked.

Joanna revealed a flawless smile. “I specifically asked for leave to visit you, but I didn’t expect you to treat me like this. I thought that even if you didn’t treat me as a friend, you would at least be polite to strangers instead of mocking me everywhere.”

“How could that be?” I smiled back at her, but it was obvious that the malice in my smile was much stronger than hers.

“I just thought that when I wasn’t around, you didn’t even have the chance to get close to my mate, let alone go with him to investigate. You had such a chance before because my mate gave you a little kindness that he usually gives to me. That was the real courtesy.”

I saw the smile on Joanna’s face disappear for a second. This gave me a feeling of successful revenge. When Joanna had no choice but to take off her hypocritical mask before me, her angry and vicious inner self would be exposed. And the more often this happened, the greater the possibility of being seen by someone other than me.

“Humph, what are you so proud of?” Joanna restrained her sweet and somewhat annoyed tone. At this moment, her eyes were filled with hatred as she stared at me.

“You’re just a weak she-wolf and a useless fool. Can’t you see the current situation? In the beginning, Michael played a chase game with you. Your escape scene stimulated him, so he captured you, locked you in a room, and restricted your freedom.”

How did Joanna know so much about our past? Who told her? Was it Sasha? Or Michael?

“But after I came, he lost interest in you. He let you be free because he wanted you to fly away like a free bird. You can’t see that; you still welcome the embarrassment of Michael rejecting you face-to-face. Now is the chance for him to give you a decent chance. Think about it.”

With those last words, she turned, got in the car, and drove off. I stood where I was, staring in the direction her car had disappeared. I would have shot her tires if I had a gun right now.

I strode in the direction of my dorm, and this time around, Joanna’s words still affected me. I hated myself for not being strong enough. I believed in Michael. I believed that he loved me and wouldn’t give up on me so easily.

But the growing unease in my heart made me realize that my heart wasn’t as strong as I had hoped.

When I saw the familiar dorm door, I forced myself to focus on Kate.

I hadn’t forgotten why I had come to school today. Joanna’s appearance had been an accident. I had come to help Kate be with her mate.

Kate was in bad shape before, but I believe if she chose to go back to Alex, everything would be fine, just like I went back to Michael from the Ancient Wood Pack.
