Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When they arrived at Alexander College, the two parted ways. As she watched Edwin’s car drive into the parking lot and drown in the crowd of luxury cars, Caroline thought back to what he had just said a few times.
She flipped through the original body’s memories several times, but she still couldn’t find any memories of the two of them knowing each other. She couldn’t figure out anything. Thus, Caroline could only attribute this to Edwin being like a peacock, releasing his excessive hormones everywhere.
Caroline looked at the time and walked to the principal’s office.
Not far away, Austin and Kelly, who saw Caroline get out of the unfamiliar luxury car, were both shocked.
Kelly reacted faster. She hesitated and said, “Dad was so angry that he stopped Sister’s card. She can’t be...”
Although Kelly did not say it clearly, Austin quickly understood what she meant. After all, Caroline’s reputation was well-known, so she was very unpopular in the school. No one would be willing to let her hitch a ride to school, and she did not have any money on her.
For such a situation to occur, Caroline must have hooked up with someone else, and it was a stranger that they were not familiar with.
When Austin thought of this possibility, his expression turned ugly. Their engagement had yet to be called off.
“Hmph, she better not do anything that will ruin the reputation of the Lambert and Campbell families.”
Young Master Austin, who said this so confidently, did not seem to realize that he was standing close to his fiancée’s sister. From his thoughts to his words and actions, he was clearly showing his double standards.
Kelly looked at the angry Austin and did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. However, she always remembered her pretense. She was the one who started the conversation, but she still had to hypocritically say, “These are all our guesses. I believe that my sister will not do something so disrespectful.”
While Austin was not paying attention to her, Kelly’s gaze was like a venomous snake’s tongue as she looked at Caroline’s back. This was today’s appetizer.
However, she said gently, “Even if Sister did something bad, she should have her own reasons. We should choose to believe in her and help her.”
Caroline didn’t know that the rumors about her were going to spread in Alexander College soon, adding a lot of color to her already bad image. She was now standing in front of the principal’s desk.
Principal Brown was in charge of the entire college, so he naturally knew about Caroline’s situation. He was only surprised for a moment by Caroline’s sudden visit, but he quickly returned to his business-like attitude. “Miss Lambert, may I help you?”
He concealed it very well, but the sharp Caroline could sense the resistance and impatience from his body language. However, Caroline did not care about his attitude. She directly stated her request. “I want to apply for a change of major.”
“You want to change your major?” Principal Brown looked at her in surprise and immediately refused, “I think your current academic performance may not meet the requirements to change your major.”
Caroline opened the school handbook and flipped to one of the pages. “Article 68 states that all students have the right to apply for a major change. As long as they pass the assessment examination for the major, the school cannot reject their application.”
It was rumored that Miss Lambert wasn’t someone who was so good with words. This thought flashed through Principal Brown’s mind, and he beat around the bush. “When you first entered the college, the major you studied was chosen by your father. Are you sure you want to change your major?”
Caroline took out the application form that she had already filled out and placed it on the table. “I’m already 18 years old. I’m an adult now. Naturally, I have the right to choose my own major.”
As the principal of Alexandria College, his students were all extraordinary and difficult to discipline. Therefore, Principal Brown’s working philosophy had always been to turn a blind eye. As long as it was not a big problem in the college that affected the reputation of the college, he would not interfere even if he had his own opinions.
Since Caroline insisted on changing her major, he couldn’t find a reason to reject her, so he simply stamped it.
After Caroline left, he glanced at the application form on the table and was really surprised. This idiot actually chose the best medical major in the school. He did not know if she was too ignorant or too confident in herself.
