Chapter 27

Elisa didn't want to give up just like that.

Just as she was about to make a call, she heard a "cough."

Elisa's face turned pale with fright, and she almost dropped her phone.

Seeing Raymond standing not far away, Elisa's heart pounded with panic, "Raymond, why are you back? Weren't you supposed to meet your friend today?"

She didn't even know when Raymond had appeared.

She didn't know if Raymond had heard the conversation she just had with Christina.

If he had heard, how would she face him?

She didn't dare to face Raymond now.

"I came back early. I saw you were on the phone, so I didn't come forward."

However, Elisa's eyes and expression were filled with calculation and determination.

He spoke up, not wanting Elisa to take this step.

Elisa was completely flustered, "Raymond, listen to me, I was just angry. Clearly, Christina didn't do this, but now Christina is in this situation."

Elisa stepped forward, clutching her phone.

In Raymond's eyes, she had always been the image of a good wife.

But Raymond had already heard the call between her and Christina.

In his eyes, she was scheming against William, trying to push Christina onto William.

"I know. But you have to understand, William hates being manipulated the most. Now, he just doesn't believe that Christina had nothing to do with it. But by doing this, you're just pushing Christina into the spotlight."

Raymond pursed his lips and continued, "Do you think I don't know that you deliberately bribed the servant to lead Dad to William's villa at the dinner table?"

Elisa was immediately ashamed.

"Don't make another mistake, or you'll harm others and yourself."

"I won't think like that anymore, I'm sorry." Elisa lowered her head, now like a child who had done something wrong.

Seeing her like this, Raymond couldn't bear it either.

He hugged Elisa, "Alright, don't think too much. I'll find a good match for Christina, she won't be left alone."

"Thank you, Raymond."

They had lived together for many years and understood each other's temperaments well.

Neither of them was a bad person, so Raymond didn't blame Elisa, and Elisa knew that once Raymond promised, he would keep his word.

This way, her daughter's future would be secure, and she could be at ease.

Now, with the online public opinion like this, even if Christina and William explained, Christina's bad reputation hadn't been cleared.

Online, she was seen as someone with a messy private life, who liked her uncle, and had a twisted love.

No company wanted to hire her.

She couldn't possibly work as a cleaner.

There were many who openly rejected her, and some even mocked her to her face, "You can get your uncle to clear your name in front of the media, why don't you just ask him to arrange a position for you at the Cavendish Corporation?"

"Looking for a job? Do you even need to look for a job?"

Christina didn't expect that even after clarifying, her reputation was still so bad.

So, regarding the school, she feared waiting for the school to come to her was impossible. It seemed she had to go to the school herself.

But before going to the school, she called William.

"Uncle, our clarification didn't work. I need to go to the school now, can you find some people to help me? I need to get back to school."

William had just picked up the phone when he heard Christina's demand.

"Are you asking me for a favor or demanding it?" William's face was cold; holding the press conference was already a favor.

But to Christina, she didn't know how to restrain herself.

Christina pursed her lips and said softly, "Helping me is mutually beneficial. Otherwise, it would be terrible."

She couldn't bring herself to beg William in that tone anymore.

But William knew the current situation.

William smirked coldly, "What does this have to do with me?"

Before Christina could say anything, she heard Bob's respectful voice, "Mr. Cavendish, the project approval for the area around Harvard has come through."

William's business was widespread.

William's connections were the same; with just a little effort, he could help her get back to school. And she didn't believe that after the press conference, William hadn't asked Bob to follow up on this matter.

So!

William knew she was in this predicament and didn't want to help.

She didn't expect William to help, but now, only William could solve this quickly, and she couldn't delay any longer.

She had to get back to school immediately and compete.

"William, this has nothing to do with you. But you don't want to be entangled with me forever, right? I was the victim that night. If I go to the police and talk nonsense..."

Christina deliberately didn't finish her sentence. If she went to the police and talked nonsense, it would definitely affect William.

She was betting that William didn't want to be affected.

William said coldly, "You go to the school and handle this yourself. I'll have Bob notify the school."

"Okay."

Hearing this, Christina finally breathed a sigh of relief.

So, Christina set off for the school.

She was now a celebrity online, and as soon as she entered the school, eyes immediately followed her.

Some even said directly to her face, "Isn't this Christina who seduced her uncle? The school is going to expel you, how do you still have the face to come to school?"

"Why wouldn't she dare to come? Isn't it the internet age? Being scolded and getting attention is still attention, can't she become famous this way?"

"Really a benefit of the times, does Christina have some expert advising her?"

Christina didn't want to deal with this now. She knew one thing clearly, she had to go to the dean's office.

Anyway, after returning to school, she would have plenty of opportunities to deal with these people.

Ignoring them, Christina went to the dean's office. The people there changed their expressions when they saw her.

They wanted to expel Christina, but she had posted online and found people to help, they couldn't stand her behavior but were helpless against her.

"Although you can stay now, you must strictly follow the school's rules. If this happens again, no matter who you find, it won't help."

Christina nodded and wrote a guarantee, of course, this was to appease them. What she wanted most was to participate in the school's art competition.

At this point, they didn't want Christina to return, but she did. If they stopped her, it would cause more trouble.

So, Christina re-registered.
