Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte)

Chapter 199 Chapter 199

As Evangeline rolled down her window, she was met with a surprisingly gentle face, so different from the stern, unyielding security guard who used to give her a hard time about leaving campus. "I heard you were coming today. Go on in."

The electronic gates swung open, and she drove onto the campus grounds,

Her timing could have been better; Alex was tied up in a meeting.

Once she knew where to replace him, and keeping in mind his trouble with walking, Evangeline made her way to him.

In the conference room on the thirteenth floor of the main teaching building, all the teachers of Avalon University were gathered, led by Vice Chancellor Tarry Dentwil, to kick off the day's meeting.

Evangeline had barely reached the conference room door on the rarely visited thirteenth floor when she noticed the door was carelessly left cracked open. The voices from the meeting inside were crystal clear. "Okay, so the main point of today's meeting is to lock in our ch

"You think you can drop a couple of cryptic bombs, dust off your pants, and just walk out? Who do you think you are?

"If you don't want to work here, fine. Hand in your resignation the proper way, and you're free to go. I won't hold you back. But you owe me an explanation for your accusations today! I've been working my tail off to replace good teachers for this school, so what's this nonsense
