"Professor Alvarez, come on now—Professor Rogers already said it was a personal matter. No need to pry," Joseph said with a chuckle.

"Alright, alright, I won’t pry," Mason replied, waving it off. "Just eat your breakfast. I bought it for you."

Brady Rogers managed an awkward smile. He really didn’t want to get into the details of his family’s situation—especially not during work hours.

To be honest, asking Joseph for help already felt like crossing a line.

"Anyway, I’ll leave you to it. I have to head to the lab—tons of work today," Mason said as she stood up again, barely having sat down.

"Oh, and Professor Wilson—don’t forget what I told you yesterday. Come to my dorm at noon, okay?"

With that, she dashed out the door, leaving Joseph and Rogers exchanging bewildered glances.

Rogers looked from the door to Joseph, his expression laced with curiosity.

"Professor Rogers, don’t get the wrong idea. I left a piece of clothing in her dorm. She just wants me to pick it up," Joseph explaine

    “No, no—Teresa, please, can you just stop talking for once?” Lindsay Anderson was at her wit’s end with her classmate Teresa.“What are you so flustered about? Ask any girl in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department if she likes Professor Wilson and I guarantee you, the answer will be yes every time.” “Liking Professor Wilson is practically a given. So why are you acting all nervous? Don’t tell me… there’s something more going on here?” Teresa teased with a knowing smile.“I’m not! I don’t know what you’re talking about—don’t make things up,” Lindsay fired back with a rapid-fire denial.“Alright, alright, I’ll stop teasing. Now hurry up and reply to Professor Wilson’s message. Maybe he’s reaching out about something related to school.” Teresa added with a wink.“You’re right. It must be something academic.” Lindsay finally snapped out of her daze and quickly unlocked her phone.> Professor Wilson, I’m free this afternoon. Is there something you need?She typed back, trying t

    Ahem—"Joseph, you're really something. You saw right through me," Alice said with a light cough. "This was actually put together by a classmate of mine—she’s a genius with computers."She wasn’t ready to tell Joseph about the bounty she had posted online. "What do you plan to do with this information?" Joseph asked again. "I’ll either submit it to the school, or hand it over to my grandfather. He can choose to take it to Mr. Harris or go directly to the police. Now that we have this evidence, it’ll be much easier to trace whoever's behind all this."Alice thought for a moment before answering. "Sounds like a good plan," Joseph nodded. "Then it's settled. I’ll have my grandfather pass it on to Mr. Harris—or the police." Alice beamed, closing her laptop with a satisfied smile. "Joseph, I’m heading to bed now. It’s getting late." She stood up, gave Joseph a quick kiss, and walked out with her laptop in hand.---The next morning, Joseph didn’t have any early classes, but since A

    "Yeah, I thought the same," Heidi agreed earnestly. "So right now, the important thing isn't proving what they're saying is false, but uncovering who these people are—and who's pulling the strings behind them.""Honestly, we should just report it to the police. Let them handle it," Fiona said, frowning slightly. "The school already did. But I'm helping him gather evidence—it'll speed up the investigation," Heidi replied matter-of-factly, munching on potato chips."So this is the evidence you've collected?" Fiona asked, leaning in for a closer look. "Exactly. As long as what they're doing involves the internet, I can track it down—where it came from, and all sorts of related info," Heidi said confidently."Helping him is fine. But don't cross any legal lines—there are things you simply can't do," Fiona warned."Oh, come on. I know what I'm doing. Relax. I'm just using a few methods to gather information," Heidi said, a bit impatiently. "I wouldn't even dream of touching a bank's tr

    Just then, a transfer notification popped up.> “Your friend Dorothy has sent you $50,000.”Pfft!Heidi nearly sprayed tea all over her phone.Just like that? She actually paid up?She had expected a bit of haggling—a round of back-and-forth before the money arrived. But this girl sent the full payment without blinking.Heidi quickly typed:“??”Dorothy responded almost immediately:> “What, you think that’s not enough?”"Huh? No, it’s not that it’s not enough. It’s just... this money was way too easy to earn. Are you sure the stuff I submitted is really that useful?"Heidi replied in her usual blunt manner.Despite growing up in luxury, she’d always been frugal. In

    Alice grinned, clearly proud of herself.“Well then, if you know how she feels, why do you keep inviting her over?” Joseph asked, exasperated.“I can’t just hurt her feelings, can I? I’m not going to lose a best friend over a guy, and I don’t want you to lose a good colleague either.”“Besides, I trust her. And I trust you.”“She deserves at least a little piece of our affection,” Alice said solemnly.Joseph blinked. “Well... when you put it that way, I guess that’s fair.”“But now I really want to know—what kind of rules did you set for her?”He couldn’t help but laugh. This girl’s logic really was in a world of its own.“No hugging, no kissing, no sneaky touches—at most, she can hold your han
