Chapter 166 Body Reaction
They were all expressing their guilt and remorse. Countless replies flooded the posts, showing their apologies. Of course, just as many people were mocking them.
“What’s the point of apologizing now? Where was this remorse when you were actually doing it?”
“Exactly! If saying sorry was enough, why do we even need the police? The damage is already done! We were all accompliced
“At this moment, I realize just how meaningless the words I’m sorry‘ really are.”
But it wasn’t just Northwind University’s students who were troubled. The university’s top executives had called for an emergency meeting. Even the head principal, who hadn’t stepped foot on campus in years, had made a rare appearance at the school
He knew about those matters but he just thought it would be fine once settled. He did not expect something like this to happen.
He also did not care who should have been the one in prison; he just cared if the university could make Sierra stay.
Their university’s biochemistry program was its crown jewel, and naturally, the principal was well aware of Sierra’s value now. As far as he knew, several top institutions had already prepared to extend offers to her. Among them, even the world’s number–one–ranked university.
Everyone understood what it would mean to have Sierra join their institution.
Sierra had a bright future ahead. Wait, to be exact, she was already shining now.
Who didn’t want a talent like that? So what could they do to make her stay now?
Thinking of this, he turned to the vice principals and the dean, speaking calmly, “What we need to think about now is how to earn Sierra’s forgiveness.”
The vice principals all looked grim, but they knew the principal was right.
“We’ll apologize, Wagner gritted his teeth and said.
“You think an apology will be enough?” the principal questioned:
“Whether it works or not, we need to at least show sincerity first,” Wagner replied regretfully. If he had known Sierra was this capable, he would never have made those decisions back then.
The principal thought for a moment and let out a deep sigh. “Let’s start with that, then.”
Sierra had a good sleep. Many years of turmoil and things that were bothering her vanished. She felt relaxed. When she woke up, she found that she was sleeping in Jonathan’s arms.
Through the thin fabric of her nightgown, she could feel the warmth radiating from Jonathan’s body and the firm strength of his physique. A slow realization crept over her, making her cheeks flush She instinctively shifted, trying to put some distance
But in the next moment, a strong arm pulled her back into his embrace, and above her head, she heard Jonathan’s slightly husky voice. Don’t move.”
Just when she was about to speak, she felt something off down there, where their legs were intertwined. She suddenly stopped moving, and told herself that this was a human’s bodily reaction.
As a biochemistry student, she knew it was a male’s body reaction. But even so, she still blushed. First of all, she had never been this close to a guy. Second of all, she felt that he was somewhat beyond the standard.
She had seen the data and knew the average statistics for men. Although she hadn’t observed up close, just from the brief touch earlier, Jonathan had definitely exceeded the average.. And by a lot.
