Frankie shook his head. “I don’t know the specifics. All my dad said was that the new university president
is already on campus.”
hey the
Avril overheard this. Leaning closer to Bonnie, she whispered, “Tell me the truth, Bonnie. Are you the new
president?”
Bonnie nodded. “I didn’t want the position, but I couldn’t bear to turn Russell down.”
“Phew…” Avril let out a deep breath. She thought, ‘I know Bonnie and the president were quite close, but
this is still shocking.‘
“When are you going to take over? Are they going to do some kind of ceremony?” Avril asked excitedly. She was already imagining Bonnie standing on stage and giving a speech to everyone on campus.
She glanced at Frankie and thought. ‘Look at him, feeling so proud of himself. He’s going to look like a chump when he sees that Bonnie is the new president.’
“I’m going to attend the meeting soon, but we’re not going to announce anything publicly. So, mum’s the
word.” Bonnie said, worried.
“Huh? Why, though? You’re going to be the new president. Why wouldn’t you announce it? It’s such an honorable feat!” Avril couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
Frowning, Bonnie responded, “I won’t know peace if I do that. Everyone’s going to hound me relentlessly. Moreover, I wouldn’t have kept my identity as Bonita under wraps if I cared about being popular.”
Then, it finally hit Avril. ‘She’s right! Being the university president is an incredible feat, but it doesn’t hold a candle to her identity as Bonita! Ugh. I can’t stand it anymore. I have to share this news with someone.‘
Pulling out her phone, she sent Daken a text. “The university has a new president, Dad.”
Daken replied to her, “Who’s that?”
“Bonnie.”
“Huh?!”
She felt much better when she saw her dad’s reply.
It’d be 9 a.m. in ten minutes. So Bonnie rose and walked out of the lecture hall.
“Hold it, Bonnie!” Frankie stopped her. “Class is about to start soon. Where do you think you’re going?”
Turning around, she said dryly, “Mind your own business.”
Then she went away to attend the meeting without so much as a glance at him.
He was so angered by her reaction that his neck turned red.
‘Keep acting cocky while you can. I’m going to tell Dad about your blatant disregard for the campus rules as soon as the new university president is here.

‘The new president has just taken over. I’ll bet he can’t wait to exercise his authority and make himself look good in the process!‘
All of the top management personnel had gathered in the conference room.
“Do you think the new university president is competent? Mr. Russell might’ve complimented her nonstop, but we won’t know for sure until we see her in action.”
“Hear, hear. Needless to say, Mr. Russell commands our respect, but I’m going to rise and rebel if the new one doesn’t have what it takes to do the job. What’s your take on this, Reece?”
Reece wore an irritated expression on his face. “It doesn’t matter what we think. We’re going to have a new university president. It’s decided. All I want is to ask her to expel a particular student who blatantly went against the rules.”
“Who could that be? Look at you. You’re practically steaming.” Adan asked.
“You know her too. You used to give lectures to her.”
“Who in the world are you talking about? I don’t seem to recall any student going against the rules.”
