<b>Chapter390</b>:


    Prof. Hawkins was right next to James at that moment. He heard this, looked at Charlotte, and thought, Yeah, that’s the girl I sawst time.


    Prof. Hawkins admitted that she was right next to Jaxson thest time they met in Boston. When people heard this, everyone around started whispering to each other except for James.


    Although relying on connections wasn’t an umon problem, it was limited to circles of power, while in academic circles, people cared more about ability, and background or connections were just something that helped broaden yourwork.


    Especially people like Prof. Kendall and Prof. Hawkins really didn’t need people who only had shy tricks but no real skills.


    Just when everyone thought Charlotte was going to get kicked out, Prof. Kendall touched the cross bracelet wrapped around his wrist and said to Prof. Hawkins, “Didn’t you want to meet my student?”


    Prof. Hawkins nodded, “That’s right.”


    Prof. Kendall reached out and had Charlottee over to his side, put his arm around her shoulders, “She’s my student, Charlotte.”


    Everyone was surprised.


    Caroline’s whole face went from blue to white, looking terrible.


    Was Charlotte Prof. Kendall’s student?


    How could that be!


    Prof. Hawkins was surprised, “Oh my god, she was really your student?”


    “Can’t be wrong, she was the most talented kid in surgery I picked myself.” There was even a hint of pride on Prof. Kendall’s face.


    Caroline clenched her fists. Right now, Prof. Hawkins and Prof. Kendall only had eyes for Charlotte. This wasn’t what she had expected!


    She


    put up with the pain still left on her face, bit her lip, and said, “Charlotte, you’re Prof. Kendall’s student, why didn’t you say so earlier, made us misunderstand…”


    “Whether I was Prof. Kendall’s student or not, it didn’t really need Ms. Warren to believe it, right?”


    Charlotte still didn’t give her any respect.


    Other people who didn’t know what was going on started whispering behind our backs.


    “How could she be like that? Ms. Warren already said she didn’t know she was Prof. Kendall’s student and that’s why there was a conflict, but she didn’t even show any attitude.”

    “With Prof. Kendall backing me up, what was there to be afraid of?”


    “But Ms. Warren didn’t apologize either, and besides, could you just curse at someone if you didn’t know whether they were Prof. Kendall’s student?”


    Caroline’s eyes were red, like she was about to cry but had no tears. “Prof. Hawkins, I let you down. I didn’t expect people here to dislike me so much…”


    Prof. Hawkins didn’t know about her issues with Charlotte and tried to talk to Prof. Kendall to


    get them to make peace.


    Charlotte sneered, her face indifferent, “You want me to shake hands and make woman who broke up my marriage and ruined my family? I’d rather go shovel manure.”


    After saying that, she took Prof. Kendall’s arm, “Teacher, I couldn’t do it.”

    No one knew if what Charlotte said was true or not, but treating her like that was really a bit harsh.


    To his surprise, Prof. Kendall patted her hand, “If you don’t want to, no one can force you.” He looked <i>at </i>Prof. Hawkins, “Sorry, I can’t let my student be wronged.”


    Prof. Hawkins understood what he meant and didn’t try to make peace anymore.


    Soon, Charlotte went into the banquet hall with Prof. Kendall.


    Caroline tried to follow Prof. Hawkins, but Prof. Hawkins’s assistant stopped her and said, “Prof. Hawkins said you don’t need to go in.”


    “What do you mean!”


    “Prof. Kendall started the nanotherapy project, we were partners, but you came and offended Prof. Kendall’s proud student. Now Prof. Hawkins lost all his face. He already did his best not to kick you out of the team, so stop making trouble for him!”


    The assistant said this and then turned and left.


    Caroline was left outside, and soon heard cheersing from inside. She got so mad her eyes turned red.


    Charlotte was really an eyesore!


    ***


    Charlotte stayed until the afternoon banquet was over, and left with James after seeing off Prof. Hawkins‘ team.


    James turned to look at the distracted person and guessed something, “This Caroline, is she the one who had something going on with that Hamilton guy?”


    She came back to herself, took James’s arm, and walked down the stairs with him. “It doesn’t matter what it was. What matters is, she got my parents killed.”

    “You didn’t call the police?”


    “No evidence.”


    Charlotte lowered her eyes, “She had someone cleaning up after her. Even if I called the police, they’d let her go soon.”


    Mem


    James stopped walking, looked at her, his face serious, “You were treated like this in Boston, why didn’t you tell me?”


    She pressed her lips together, “I didn’t want to trouble you.”


    Knowing her temperament well, James closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After a moment, he said, “I thought with Nancy backing you up after you married into the Hamilton family, at least you


    wouldn’t be wronged. But I didn’t expect things to turn out like this. It’s my fault too. I was too busy with my work and didn’t check in on you in time.”


    “Teacher, I just didn’t


    <b>I </b>just didn’t want you to worry about me. Besides, didn’t you already ask Reynald to look after me? Of course I couldn’t trouble you anymore.”


    James paused for a second, “I asked Reynald to look after you?”


    Charlotte wondered, “Isn’t it?”


    Seeing James lost in thought and not answering, she immediately understood something.
