Chapter 439
“With this official announcement and the fact that one of Pyralis University’s students might get into Bonita Research Institute, I’m sure our enrollment rate would increaser”
” said you’re ignorant when you didn’t know about Arjun Research Institute, but I’m tempted to slap myself now. You are above all that. Only the top three research institutes are worth your time and
attention!”
Reece’s face turned red with anger when he heard how the others complimented Bonnie.
Adan looked at Reece triumphantly. He was about to make a dig at Reece, but he saw how the latter’s face had soured and decided against it. Otherwise, Reece might pass out right away
Russell’s assistant basked in the glory. Looking at her out of the corner of his eyes, he thought to himself. It’s going to blow their minds if they learn that Bonnie is none other than Ms. Bonita herself. I’ll bet they’ll
suck up to her more than they’re doing now.
At that moment, one of the top management personnel asked, “We’re all curious about something, Ms. Bonnie. What kind of connection do you have with Bonita Research Institute?”
It was lively in the conference room a minute ago. Now, an eerie silence hung over the room as all of
them stared at Bonnie again.
Sweeping her eyes across everyone, she responded calmly, “I’d rather not say it.”
Everyone was disappointed by it. However, they knew she must’ve had a reason for not saying it.
“That’ll be all today. If none of you have anything else to discuss, then let’s adjourn the meeting.”
She stood from her chair, and that wrapped up the meeting.
Everyone waited until she left before they filed out of the conference room. Reece kept his head lowered throughout the entire time. He was so embarrassed that he wished he could teleport himself to the other side of the earth.
At that moment, a couple of professors walked by him.
“Here’s a bold assumption. Isn’t Ms. Bonita supposed to be young as well? Moreover, they were both ladies. Do you think Ms. Bonnie may be Ms. Bonita herself?”
His heart quivered. He stared at his fellow professor with widened eyes. His body was as stiff as a board.
“What crazy idea is that?” The professor next to him said, “Who do you think Ms. Bonita is? She’s the pillar of the world of scientific research in Arvandar! Why would she become university president instead of working at the research institute?”
“I guess you’re right.”
“Also, Bonnie is an ordinary computer science student. Do you think the reputable Ms. Bonita would enroll herself here to be a student? Why would she pick computer science of all things?”
“Yeah. That makes more sense. I guess I overshot it a little.”
Reece let out a breath of relief
“The logic tracks! At the same time, you have to think about how distinguished she is and how crucial she is to our nation! The King of Combat, Master Jim, acts as her bodyguard whenever she goes out. When have you seen Jim on our campus?”
“Heh heh. Now, I’m embarrassed. Please don’t tell anyone about what I was thinking earlier!”
Reece felt so much better. Chuckling nervously, he shook his head. How ridiculous that idea was.
That was when a security guard bumped into his shoulder by mistake.
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine. Just watch it…” Before he could finish, he was gawking at the security guard, who was doing his
best to pull down his cap.
The security guard was wearing a mask, so Reece couldn’t get a good look at his mug. However, the guard looked exactly like that person!
Reece pulled out his phone and looked up Jim Ray’s pictures.
‘C–Could it be? I–Is this really happening? Why would someone like Ms. Bonita study in our university? Is this just a coincidence? However, the security guard looks just like..
“Am I imagining things?”
“Hey, you! Hold it right there!”
