Chapter 143 The Professor’s Public Declaration.
“It’s fine”
Sierra allowed Jonathan to tighten his grip around her hand. People had speculated about their relationship for a while since they were often seen together. But now, there was no room for doubt, this was as good as an official announcement. And just like that, the most handsome professor in Northwind University dating news exploded across the university forums.
to me! =
“Help! My husband is gone! Someone gives him back to me!
“Is Mr. Yeager really not going to give us even a glimmer of hope? At least let me keep dreaming!”
“Why? Why did he choose a woman with a criminal record?”
“Don’t ask. Just weep.
*If I had known Mr. Yeager liked this type, I wouldn’t have pretended to be a good girl all these years. I regret everything!”
The entire forum was flooded with discussions about the two of them. And unsurprisingly, all of them were centred around the idea that Sierra wasn’t worthy of Jonathan. She wasn’t bothered in the slightest.
She had long since expected these reactions, so after glancing at a few comments, she simply put her phone away. Jonathan, on the other hand, usually had no interest in forum gossip, but when he noticed Sierra scrolling, he caught a glimpse of the discussions. His brows furrowed slightly.
Sierra had a general education class before her core subjects, so she and Jonathan parted ways at the academic building Since this was a mixed course, students from multiple departments were in attendance. The moment she entered, all eyes turned to her. She was already used to the attention.
People had always talked about her, and now, their minds were undoubtedly filled with speculation about how she had seduced Jonathan. Ignoring them, she walked straight to a seat. The girl sitting next to her had a round, doll–like face and was staring at her with unconcealed curiosity.
After some hesitation, she finally spoke. You’re amazing!”
Sierra turned her head slightly, puzzled by the sudden comment.
“Mr. Yeager is just too handsome; it’s like he walked straight out of a CEO romance novel!”
The round–faced girl was clearly a fan. Sierra frowned slightly. She had no idea what the girl was going on about.
Sensing her confusion, the girl grew even more excited. “Wait… don’t tell me you haven’t seen it yet.”
Seeing Sierra’s blank expression, the girl quickly pulled out her phone, tapped a few times, and shoved the screen in front of her. “Mr. Yeager literally made a public statement for you! How do you not know this?”
On the screen was a new post on the university forum: Since so many students seem interested in my personal life, I’d like to clarify two things. First, 1 pursued Sierra, and I’ve been pursuing her for a long time. So, no, there was no seduction involved. Second, stop harassing my girlfriend. Ive muted all malicious comments this time, but if it happens again, I will personally have a conversation with each of you.”
And in those five minutes, it had already climbed to the number one trending topic. This was the first time in three years that Jonathan had ever posted on the school forum. And the students were losing their minds.
