Chapter 435 1/2 "Bonnie's the only student who never focused during lectures. She even skipped classes regularly." "Bonnie?" Adan was stunned. He didn't think Reece was trying to expel her.
"Exactly! Are you going to tellthat she's never skipped your class?" "Well, she did. However, her talents are miles ahead of everyone else! I'm not exaggerating here, but her gifts and skills in computer science were far above mine. I've got nothing to teach her. In fact, she could showa pointer or two." Reece replied, "How could you say such a thing? She's just a student. You're supposed to be teaching her, not the other way around!" Adan wasn't fazed by it at all.
"Being a student doesn't make her inferior, nor does being a teacher mean we're better than her. Proficiency in scientific research doesn't cwith age.
"Take a look at Ms. Bonita. We might not know what she looks like, but we do know that she's young. Are you going to pretend you know everything in front of her just because she's a young lady?" "That's quite enough, Adan!" Reece roared, "You've got snerve to take Ms. Bonita's nin vain. How dare you compare her with that good-for-nothing? Do you know what would happen if people from her research institute or Ms. Bonita herself overheard what you said?" The other professors and the top management personnel couldn't take their bickering anymore and tried to defuse the situation.

"As for that Bonnie character, you guys can bring it up for discussion when she's here. She'll decide if it's necessary to expel this student." The next thing they knew, Russell's assistant cinto the conference room.
"The new president is here. Please rise, everyone." Everyone was brimming with curiosity.
'Who's the new president? As far as I heard, it's someone from the campus itself. However, every reputable figure in the university is already here. So, who in the world took over Russell's place?' Everyone was staring at the door with anticipation when Bonnie slowly appeared before them.
The top management personnel gaped at her, especially Reece and Adan. Never had they thought that Bonnie could be the new president. For heaven's sake, they were her professors.
"Greetings, I'm the new university president. My name's Bonnie." She stood at the head of the table and introduced herself calmly.
Chapter 435 2/2 Silence hung over the conference room.
It was so quiet that they could've heard a pin drop. None of them could believe what they were seeing. Sof them even subtly pinched their own thighs.
"Please be seated, everyone," she said before she pulled the chair out and sat down.
Then she realized everyone was frozen to their spot. None of them moved a muscle.
"Are you guys going to stand there until the meeting adjourns?" Her words brought everyone back to their senses. All of them proceeded to take their seats, although they moved stiffly.

'How could this be? Why is she the new president?' Reece stared at her. The longer he looked at her, the harder it was for him to accept the truth.
She noticed his stare and said, "You're givinga funny look m a Professor Reece. Is there anything you want to say?" He wrestled with himself for several seconds. Then, he couldn't stop himself anymore. "Why are you taking over Mr. Russell's position?" This was what everyone was wondering about.
"This was Russell's decision. I can't help it,” she responded.
"Heh! Why do you make it sound like you don't want the know what you're on? Do you doing now? You're acting coy after you got the offer everyone dreams of!"
