Chapter 817

A Beauty With Multiple Masks

Wendy, who was eagerly anticipating Marcus’ arrival, noticed him immediately. Quickly, she waved her
hand to catch his attention. “Mr. Brown, over here!”

Marcus quickened his pace as he made his way in front of Wendy. “Who on earth is the person who
ignored your advice?” he demanded angrily.

Wendy skirted around his question. “You’ll know once you see it for yourself,” she replied.

She was afraid that Marcus might be biased toward Arielle. Therefore, Wendy only wanted him to realize
Arielle’s identity after he was done scolding her.

Gleefully, Wendy trailed after Marcus as he stormed into the archive.

Out of curiosity, many of the students tagged along.

When the group entered the archive, they caught sight of a feminine figure seated on the floor with her
back against the crowd as she flipped through the files. The female student was so engrossed in her
reading that she did not notice their arrival.

Coincidentally, a ray of light that shone through the window happened to fall on her head. The golden
rays illuminated a perfect halo around her cocked head and made it seem like she was an angel who
had descended from the heavens.

The breathtaking scene before the male students left them stunned

Even Marcus found himself mesmerized. However, he snapped out of his daze immediately. “Who
allowed you into the archive? Get out of here at once!” he called

out.



Similarly, Wendy stepped forward. “The principal is here. How dare you remain there?”

Finally, the woman seemed to realize their presence. Startled, she whirled around and looked at them
like a deer caught in headlights.

Her bright eyes swept across the group at the same time the group caught sight of her alluring face. She
was so beautiful that the group was astounded.

Her look of surprise caused their hearts to ache as they felt guilty for frightening her.





On the other hand, Wendy gritted her teeth in anger. Now that the principal is here, is she trying to play
the victim?

“Mr. Brown, Arielle was the one who ignored my advice and entered the archive. She should be punished
severely for her actions!” Wendy pointed at Arielle and yelled.

Marcus finally regained his senses,

Never in his wildest dreams had he expected that Arielle was the archive’s supposed ‘intruder.’

After all, he was the one who handed Arielle the archive’s key as Marcus felt guilty after he listened to
her explanation.

In truth, Arielle was never an intruder.

Instead of punishing Arielle, he turned to look at Wendy, who was seething in anger. All of a sudden,
realization dawned upon him.



Similar to dramatic soap operas, the female students of Jadeborough University would bicker with each
other until a victor emerged. The reasons for their fights were often petty, and there was nothing that
Marcus detested more than these trifling fights.

Marcus recalled how Wendy’s hiccup with the guest professor from Maxwell University almost cost them
to lose the rights to Maxwell University’s advanced math lesson plan.

Unable to restrain his anger and hatred anymore, Marcus exploded in a fit of fury.

“Wendy Greene, what on earth are you trying to do?” he roared as he drew himself to full height. Despite
his old age, he still towered over Wendy.

His furious bellow scared Wendy out of her wits

She had no idea why he was yelling at her. Why is Mr. Brown yelling at me? Shouldn’t he be scolding
Arielle instead?

**M-Mr. Brown, why are you yelling at me?” she

stammered with widened eyes.

The rest of the students looked on in disbelief.

Although they lost their train of thought when they realized that Arielle was the one who intruded on the
archive, they were even more confused when Marcus directed his anger at Wendy instead of Arielle.
