The silence continued for several more seconds.

Everyone simply stood there staring at Alex as though their minds had completely shut down.

"What on earth did we just witness?"

"No... no... this can't possibly be real!"

"Did Alexander Hayes seriously just step out of that car?"

"My eyes have to be deceiving me!"

"There is absolutely no way!"

"I refuse to believe what I just saw with my own eyes

    Daniel's expression gradually darkened.He had not imagined that every single one of his arguments would be dismissed so completely. For several long moments, neither of them spoke as an uncomfortable silence settled over the office.Then Daniel let out a cold, humorless laugh."So this is your final decision?" he asked.The Vice Chancellor looked at him calmly. "My decision has already been made."Daniel slowly nodded. "I see."He leaned back in his chair and folded his arms across his chest."I honestly believed that once you understood how serious this situation is, you would make the right choice."The Vice Chancellor remained silent, allowing him to continue.Daniel shook his head slowly."But it seems I overestimated you." His voice became noticeably colder. "Since you clearly don't care about this school's reputation... I suppose I need to remind you of something.""And what exactly would that be?" the Vice Chancellor asked, raising an eyebrow."My father." A confident smile sl

    The Vice Chancellor sat in his office, carefully reviewing the stack of documents on his desk.He reached for another file and had barely opened it when—Bang!The office door suddenly swung open without warning.The Vice Chancellor immediately lifted his head, his eyebrows drawing together in surprise.Before he could say a single word, Daniel casually walked into the office as though he owned the place.Without asking for permission, he turned around, calmly shut the door behind him, and strolled confidently toward the chair positioned opposite the Vice Chancellor's desk."Mr. Foster. I don't recall inviting you into my office." The Vice Chancellor frowned.Daniel leaned back in the chair without showing the slightest trace of embarrassment."I wasn't here because you invited me," he replied casually. "I came because we need to have a serious conversation."The Vice Chancellor slowly placed the pen in his hand on top of the desk before folding his hands together."And what exactly i

    The cold smile that had appeared on Daniel's face remained there for several long moments.Lily and the rest of their friends stood around him without saying a single word. Every one of them waited patiently for him to continue speaking.Although traces of humiliation could still be seen on Daniel's face, the blind rage that had consumed him only moments earlier had gradually begun to settle.The anger had not disappeared.It had simply transformed into something much more.Lily was the first to break the silence."What do you mean?" she asked eagerly as she stepped a little closer to him. "A moment ago, you said you already have a plan. What exactly is your plan?"Daniel slowly turned his head toward her."I do have one," he replied calmly.One of the boys immediately stepped forward."What is it?" he asked impatiently. "Tell us."Daniel did not answer immediately. Instead, he slowly looked around the area.His eyes carefully scanned the courtyard outside the auditorium to make sure

    Standing a short distance away, Professor Collins remained calm with both hands folded behind his back.His expression revealed neither satisfaction nor disappointment. He simply waited."So, Mr. Foster," Professor Collins said in a calm voice, "the decision is now yours."Daniel swallowed hard.For a brief moment, he simply stared at the floor before forcing out an awkward laugh."There has to be some kind of misunderstanding."His words immediately caused a wave of murmurs to spread throughout the auditorium.Students looked at one another in confusion.Daniel looked around at the audience before speaking again."Come on, everyone," he said, forcing another laugh. "Surely nobody actually believed I was being serious."He smiled stiffly. "It was obviously a figure of speech."Several students frowned, while others exchanged puzzled glances."A figure of speech?""What is he talking about?""We all heard exactly what he said."Daniel hurriedly continued before anyone else could interr

    Before Alex could respond, the entire auditorium fell into complete silence.Hundreds of students kept their eyes fixed on him, waiting to see how he would answer Daniel's challenge.Daniel stood only a few feet away from Alex with a smug smile spread across his face. His arms were folded confidently across his chest, and the look in his eyes suggested that he had already declared himself the winner.He slowly shook his head before raising the microphone to his lips once again."What happened, Alex?" he asked with a mocking smile. "Just a few moments ago, you looked so confident."He paused deliberately before adding, "Well? Go on. We're all waiting."Scattered laughter echoed across the auditorium.Daniel smiled even more proudly as he continued speaking, making no attempt to hide the satisfaction in his voice."I only asked you to name ten famous fashion designers and identify their latest collections. That isn't exactly an impossible question."He gave a casual shrug before looking

    Daniel and the other candidates stood near the side of the stage as the university's central auditorium buzzed with excitement.The spacious auditorium was packed from the front row to the very back. Every seat had been occupied long before the event was scheduled to begin, while hundreds of students who had arrived late remained standing along the walls and at the rear of the hall.The atmosphere was electric.Conversations echoed from every direction as students eagerly discussed the Student Union presidential election."I heard Daniel Foster is definitely going to win."The whispers continued spreading through the auditorium until a sharp sound echoed through the speakers.Almost immediately, the conversations died down.A man dressed in a navy-blue suit walked confidently onto the stage with a wireless microphone in his hand.He smiled warmly as he looked around the auditorium. "Good afternoon, everyone.""Good afternoon!" the students answered."My name is Professor Raymond Colli
