Unable to meet Zachary, every day was a torture of Yvonne.
Whenever she went to school, she was followed and protected. And it was the same when she went shopping.
It was said to be a way to protect her. In fact, they were actually watching her! Every time Yvonne wanted to get in contact with Zachary, she could only call him.
"Where is the stuff I asked you to prepare the last time? Why hasn't it been sent here yet?"
"I'll give it to you myself in a few days."
On the phone, Zachary's voice sounded very confident, as if everything was under his control.
Yvonne did not believe him. "My father doesn't let me go out to see you at all. How can you give it to me on your own?" Thinking of this, she said unhappily, "What did you say to my father? Why did he suddenly stop me from meeting you?"
Only Frank and Zachary knew about the specific details of the conversation on that afternoon.
However, Zachary did not intend to tell Yvonne the truth. He did not want her to get involved in the feud between him and Frank.
He just said lightly, "Your father is just worried about you."
"Why?"
"Because he is afraid that I may take advantage of you."
Yvonne was speechless...
"You have already taken advantage of me!"
While complaining, she thought of something. "Zachary, can you promise me one thing?"
She spoke seriously, which made the call silent for a second.
"Go ahead."
"In the future... no matter what happens, can you promise me not to go against my father? At least, don't be his enemy."
In her previous life, in order to take revenge for Yvonne, Zachary almost slaughtered the entire Taylor family.
Yvonne knew that although her father was powerful in the business field, he was not a match for Zachary. Therefore, the Taylor Group had been merged, and the achievements of several generations had disappeared just like that.
Seeing that he did not agree, Yvonne hurriedly explained, "I know it may be too much for you, but ... if we are really married in the future, he is still my father. It will be very tough for me if you two doesn't get along."
"As long as he doesn't start a fight, and doesn't do anything to hurt you, I will never be his enemy," replied Zachary.
Yvonne let out a sigh of relief and said from the bottom of her heart, "Thank you."
"Wait a minute." Zachary's voice was light. "There's a price to pay."
Yvonne felt a little awkward, "...What price?"
"You'll know what I mean after you marry me. You'll have the chance to pay back what you owe me during the night."
Yvonne was speechless...
Through the phone, she could also imagine the man's hot eyes on the other end of the phone. She immediately understood what he meant!
"I am going to hang up, pervert!"
"Do you want to hear some more?"
"Humph, anyway, my dad doesn't let us meet now. You can't do anything to me!"
"Try me?"
Zachary said, "Click on the video option on the right corner of the screen. You'll see what I want you to do."
Yvonne smiled cheerfully and said, "Ha-ha! You're the head of the Leinster Group and you're already 30 years old. Are you sure that you have to ask an 18-year-old girl to do an indescribable thing to meet your physiological needs?"
Zachary chuckled. "You're right. I'm a thirty-year -old man. If I don't have some novel ideas, what would be the difference between me and those seventeens?"
"So, 18-year-old girl, do you want to try uncles' way?"
Yvonne's face instantly turned red completely. "You're shameless!!"
After all, she called him "uncle". How could he tease her on the phone so boldly!
Yvonne hung up the phone.
Till the call was over, she still felt that her heart was still beating wildly.
"Damn it, isn't it said that the older a man is, the more boring he is? Why is this uncle so good at flirting?"
...
It usually took a week to get the result of the competition.
During the week, Yvonne was basically locked up at home every day. Except for
going to school occasionally to attend class, the rest of the time was very boring.
During the week, Zolia had been showing off in front of Yvonne all the time.
Zolia was very confident in her grades. Perhaps her confidence came from the fact that the exam was difficult. Even if she could not score 50 points higher than Yvonne, her grades definitely wouldn't be lower than Yvonne's.
The week passed by quickly.
Early in the morning of Monday, a letter of congratulations from Zagor University quickly arrived at the Taylor Family.
"It's a certificate of merit! Mom, it must be my certificate of merit!"
In previous years, the winner of the first place of the competition always got a certificate of merit, which would be sent to the student's home. When Zolia saw the letter coming, she burst into tears of joy. Zolia immediately rushed to the gate of the villa like a butterfly and took over the letter through the banister. When she held it in her hand, she found that it was printed with the name of Zagor University!
"Hahahaha! I actually got the first place!"
Zolia was so happy that her heart was pounding. Sarah was excited too, "Is it real? Zolia, did you really win the first prize?" This was great. It was enough for her to brag in front of those rich ladies for a whole year!
As soon as Yvonne came out of her room, she saw the two of them overwhelmed by joy.
"So, I didn't pass the exam, huh?"
Frank saw her daughter standing there alone, thinking that she was disappointed because she hadn't done well in the exam. So he walked over and patted her on the back to comfort her. "It doesn't matter. It's already a great success now that you have worked hard in it."
Yvonne looked up at her father and nodded. "Hmm."
In fact, she had been mentally prepared.
If the person who won the first place this time was Zolia, she shouldn't be too disappointed.
"I'll just work harder the next time."
At this moment, a sharp voice came, "What's going on?! How could it not be me? It's impossible! It's impossible!!"
Zolia screamed in disbelief.
How could it not be her? Was there something wrong?
Yvonne's eyes lit up. She rushed out and snatched the letter back from Zolia's hands. Her hands trembled as she looked at the certificate. On the paper, it wrote "The First Place in the Academy of Computers in the Fifth Subject Competition of
Zagor University, Yvonne"!
"It's me! It's me!!" Yvonne jumped for joy in an instant. "Dad, I won the first place in my grade. No, I won the first place in the entire academy!!!"
Yvonne quickly ran over and handed the certificate to Frank. She felt so happy as if she was in a dream.
Looking at Yvonne's certificate, Frank was even happier than when he won a big project worth billion.
"Well done! That's my girl!" He had never dreamed that his daughter, who was ignorant and incompetent, would learn so well one day. In the past, as long as she did not make trouble for him, he would be grateful. He did not dare to expect any achievements from her in learning.
Yvonne was also very happy. At the very least, her efforts during this period of time had been rewarded.
She couldn't help throwing herself into Frank's arms.
"It feels so good to win first place on my own!"
This kind of happiness and sense of accomplishment was something she had never experienced in her previous life!
...
Zolia, who was standing in the yard, saw how happy Frank and Yvonne were. All of a sudden, the rim of her eyes turned red and her eyes were filled with resentment!
Even Sarah looked quite unsatisfied. It seemed that Sarah was blaming her for the failure in this exam.
"I can't believe it!"
Zolia thought to herself.
"I will definitely find proof!" Zolia clenched her fists tightly.
...
The next day.
Yvonne went to school to attend classes.
As expected, as soon as she arrived at school, the way her classmates looked at her was kind of different from before.
However, no one came to congratulate her because Yvonne didn't attend classes much in the past, and she rarely talked to them.
She was also accustomed to it. Carrying the textbooks, she shuttled through the teaching building and walked to the classroom by herself.
Just at the moment, she saw a familiar figure in the corridor.
"Then I'll thank you again for continuing to finance the school, Mr. Leinster."
"You don't have to so courteous, Mr. Wales."
The man's figure was tall and straight, and his tone was remote but polite.
Even they stood far away, Yvonne still recognized him at the first glance. It was Zachary!
For a moment, she almost forgot that it was time for class, and she just stood still with the textbook in her arms. Sure enough, in a few seconds, she saw Zachary looking in her direction.
After Zachary said a few more words to the principal, the principal left.
In the corridor, apart from the students who were going for classes in a hurry, there were only Yvonne and Zachary left there. The man smiled at her, then put one hand in his pocket, and strode toward her with long legs.
"Why are you here?"
"I've promised you that I would hand it to you personally."
As the man spoke, he took out a leather bag and placed it in Yvonne's hand.
Yvonne didn't really understand what just happened. So she asked, "Did you check my curriculum intentionally? Oh, wait, how did you know our headmaster?" Zagor University was a great and renowned university in the country, and the principal was a very prestigious figure in the educational field. As for Zachary, he was a figure in the business field, and it was strange that he would get in touch with the education circle.
"The Leinster Group has always been in cooperation with Zagor University. It's normal for me to come here occasionally."
Yvonne was skeptical towards his words.
Zachary continued, "Maybe we can often see each other in school in the future."
"Why?" She was confused.
"Because you are here."
"Because you're here, I cooperate with your university in the name of donating for the new library. I can even have a lecture here. In this way, I can often see you even if your father forbids it."
Hearing that she could see him constantly in the future, Yvonne was excited and couldn't help kissing him on the corner of his lips.
"Mr. Leinster, you're the best. I love you! ... Hmm..."
However, in the next second, the young girl, who was standing on her tiptoe, was held up by the back of her head.
Her teeth were easily pried open by the man, and they kissed deeply and easily.
At this moment, the class bell rang. Yvonne struggled, but her head was held and her waist was circled.
Zachary kissed her deeply and enthusiastically as if there was no one around, which made her heart beat wildly.
Although there were few people in the corridor now that the class began, she noticed that they were standing next to the door of the classroom and nearly half of the classmates could see her!
She didn't dare to turn her head. She didn't know if her teacher and classmates had seen her. She could only beg the man in front of her to let her go.
Yvonne was wearing a black silk dress today, and her lipstick was a little stained by the kiss. Zachary looked at her cold and elegant outfit, and her hair which had been messed by his hand. Besides, her face was also blushed, which made him suddenly feel hot in his throat.
He let go of her, and his voice was hoarse.
"Go to the bathroom to wash your face before going in." After that, he pinched her face dotingly.
Yvonne lowered her long eyelashes. "Why?"
"Don't let other boys see you like this."
It was too tempting.
"I know."
Yvonne agreed to his request. Although she blamed him for his bold behavior on the occasion, she still felt a hint of sweetness and excitement in her heart.
...
After the whole morning's classes, there was no class arranged on Tuesday afternoon.
Yvonne had planned to go home after lunch at school, but then she received a phone call from the Taylor Mansion at this moment.
"Miss." It was the housekeeper of the Taylor Mansion who called. He said with concern, "Mr. Dye is here. It seems that what he is going to say something involving you. Mr. Taylor asked you to come back."
Hearing the butler's tone, Yvonne was a little worried. "Is there anything wrong?"
"I don't know exactly. Maybe it's related to your dropout last time. But I seemed to have heard Mr. Dye talking about the exam to Mr. Taylor just now. He seemed to be pretty angry."
"I know."
Yvonne hung up the phone and tightly grabbed the leather paper bag that Zachary had just gave her.
She knew it.
The two bitches, Zolia and Sarah, wouldn't let her go easily.
*
In the Taylor Mansion.
As soon as Yvonne entered the house, she sensed the tense atmosphere.
Frank, Sarah, Zolia, and Mr. Dye were all sitting on the sofa of the living room.
When Yvonne's gaze swept across Zolia's face, she noticed the delight on Zolia's face.
"Yvonne, there is a student saying that he saw you using your cell phone during the test. Is it true?"
The one who spoke first was Frank. Yvonne straightened her back, looking as cold as ice.
"It's not true."
Mr. Dye said, "There is more than one student in your examination room claiming to see it. Yvonne, it can't be fake."
"Do you have any evidence?"
"The students are the best witnesses!"
Yvonne sneered.
"Well, Mr. Dye, you're trying to force me to admit cheat. I wasn't caught on the spot, nor was I caught cheating on the video. Now it has been a week since the end of the exam and now you tell me I cheated. Don't you think it sounds like a conspiracy?"
Mr. Dye was entrusted by Sarah to do so. Now there was no turning back.
"The reason why it took us a week is that it's a big matter. It's about whether you will be expelled or not. The school carefully discussed it for a week before we agreed to come to your house to conduct a thorough investigation and give you a chance to regret it. After all, as you know, it's impossible for you to get such grades considering your past achievements."
Hearing this, Yvonne was so angry that she almost laughed.
"Mr. Dye, you have been the director of a first-class university for at least a decade. How can you be so unscrupulous?"
"Yvonne, no matter what, he's your teacher. Be careful with your tone!" Seeing that Yvonne's words were kind of impolite, Frank reminded her seriously.
Yvonne looked at Frank and said, "Dad, this kind of person doesn't deserve my respect. It's disgusting to see him bring the bureaucratic styles to the school! He is a distant relative of Zolia. He always gives me a hard time because of it!"
"Yvonne, not only did you cheat, you also slandered me!" Zolia instantly stood up. "Wow, you can't hold it in anymore?"
Yvonne was still holding the stuff in her hand. She stepped forward and faced the pale-faced girl on the sofa.
Zolia had finally revealed her real intention. The chance finally arrived!
