The moment Alex finished speaking, the entire classroom became silent again.All eyes immediately turned toward Daniel Foster. Daniel’s expression darkened instantly.Then suddenly, he exploded angrily.“That’s nonsense!” he snapped loudly. “I never said any of that!”Several students immediately exchanged awkward looks.Alex tilted his head slightly while looking at him calmly.“But I never mentioned your name,” Alex said quietly.The classroom instantly became even more awkward. A few students from Alex’s group almost laughed but quickly held themselves back.Daniel’s face stiffened. For a brief moment, he did not know what to say.Then Professor Jones suddenly spoke.“I heard it myself,” the man said firmly.Daniel immediately turned toward him.“Professor—”“You clearly made that statement earlier,” Mr. Jones interrupted coldly. “So do the right thing and apologize to Group B.”Daniel’s eyes widened slightly.“Apologize?”He looked toward the students in Group B with disbelief and

But Daniel Foster assumptions were terribly wrong.Before his punch could even properly land— Alex caught his fist midair.The movement was so fast that many students watching barely understood what happened.Daniel’s eyes widened slightly.Then— A loud slap echoed violently through the corridor.Alex’s palm crashed hard against Daniel’s face with terrifying force.The impact was so brutal that Daniel was sent stumbling backward before crashing heavily onto his backside.The surrounding students gasped loudly.Daniel himself sat there stunned for a moment.His face burned painfully. He could barely process what had just happened.He… Daniel Foster… Has just been slapped publicly.Slowly, Daniel got back to his feet while touching his cheek in disbelief.His eyes burned with humiliation and rage.“You’re lucky,” he spat angrily.His breathing had already become uneven.“I was holding back earlier.”The students around watched nervously.Everyone could already sense that things were esc

The moment the Vice Chancellor heard Daniel’s surname, the atmosphere inside the office changed completely.The man’s sharp eyes slowly shifted away from Daniel and landed directly on Alex.His gaze immediately turned cold.“So…” the Vice Chancellor said slowly while leaning backward in his chair. “You are the student who dared to hit Jacob Foster’s son?”Alex felt his chest tighten instantly. The pressure inside the office suddenly became overwhelming. Even without anyone saying it openly, Alex could already feel that his future in the university was hanging by a thread.Ever since returning from prison, he had already been carrying a bad reputation around campus. And now, even the Vice Chancellor himself was beginning to see him as some kind of violent troublemaker.Alex immediately tried to speak.“Sir, it is not what—”“Shut up!”The dean’s furious voice cut him off instantly.The man glared at Alex with visible disgust.“How dare you interrupt while the Vice Chancellor is speaki

People screamed loudly while others rushed backward in fear. The loud sound of twisting metal still echoed heavily through the air.The middle-aged man who had just entered the grocery store immediately turned around after hearing the violent crash. The moment his eyes landed on the overturned SUV, his entire face lost color instantly.“My…my wife and daughter,” he muttered with shaky tone.The shopping bag in his hand dropped to the ground immediately as he sprinted toward the vehicle like a madman.People nearby also rushed toward the accident scene without hesitation. Several men quickly surrounded the damaged SUV and began trying to force the doors open while others carefully smashed the remaining glass.After several tense moments, the crowd finally succeeded in pulling the woman and her daughter out of the overturned vehicle. The mother and child were laid carefully on the roadside while everyone gathered around anxiously.The little girl was completely unconscious. Blood slowly

Alex’s eyes narrowed slightly after hearing the man’s words.The man smiled calmly before speaking again.“I forgot to properly introduce myself,” he said casually. “I am a member of the university’s board of trustees.”Alex looked at him quietly, but before he could react properly, the man added something else that shocked him even more.“And not just any member,” the man continued calmly. “I am actually the president of the board.”Alex blinked in surprise immediately.The man then slipped one hand into his pocket and brought out his phone while speaking casually again.“The Vice Chancellor answers directly to me.”For a brief moment, Alex honestly did not know what to say. Everything was happening too quickly and the situation still felt unreal to him.The man unlocked his phone before asking calmly,“What did you say your name was again?”“Alex Hayes,” Alex answered.The man nodded lightly before dialing a number immediately.The call connected after a few seconds.At the other en
