Chapter 327: Chapter 327

After class, under the watchful eyes of everyone enjoying the show, Eleanor Sterling went to the traditional medicine room.

The medical school wasn’t just about modern medicine, but after Elder Sawyer left, traditional Chinese medicine was neglected.

Eleanor wanted to revitalize it on behalf of her mentor, so when Aaron Underwood suggested she go organize the herbs, she didn’t object.

In the cafeteria, Faye Sterling went to eat with some close friends from her dormitory.

Because Zion Sheffield’s dorm was separate, Faye was assigned with others, and her dorm mates were part of her small group.

"Faye, is Aaron Underwood standing up for you?" ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveI(F)ire.net

"You’re pretty impressive."

"Yeah, even if Eleanor Sterling can answer those questions, it doesn’t mean she knows all the herbs."

"I think this time she’ll definitely be punished, maybe even isolated and expelled from the school."

Faye smiled coldly, "We’ll watch a good show tomorrow."

The group laughed together.

The herb room was under the management of Aaron Underwood, and although still in use, it was a bit chaotic without proper organization.

Looking at the cluttered herbs, Eleanor sighed and started pulling out all the drawers to reorganize them.

She initially intended to just take a look and then go to the cafeteria to eat.

But unexpectedly, once she started organizing, she got completely absorbed and has been busy since.

She straightened up and adjusted her back when her phone rang.

It was a video call from Estelle Sterling.

Eleanor swiped to answer. "Little Star."

"Sister Eleanor, are you doing okay at school? Did the teacher spank you?"

Eleanor was caught between tears and laughter, "No."

Caleb Faulkner appeared on the side, "Eleanor mommy, you’re working hard to become our mommy, and we’ll be good kids too."

Eleanor’s eye twitched. When did she ever work hard to become his mommy?

Clearly, she was doing it for Estelle Sterling.

Caleb grinned and asked, "Eleanor mommy, my daddy just left and might be looking for you."

Alaric Faulkner came to find her?

Before Eleanor could be surprised, Alaric Faulkner pushed open the door and came in.

"Why are you here?" Eleanor was startled.

The two little ones exchanged a glance and smartly hung up the video connection.

Alaric walked over, a slight curve on his lips, "I missed you."

Eleanor was already accustomed to his flippant manner and didn’t bother arguing with him.

"It’s messy here. You should go out first so your clothes don’t get dirty."

Alaric glanced around at the herbs scattered about and the drawers placed together.

He raised an eyebrow, "I’ll help you."

Eleanor hesitated for a few seconds before quickly agreeing.

No sense in wasting a free helper.

She wasn’t polite and pointed to the drawers, "Put all these inside the cabinet, remember to arrange them in the order I set."

Alaric responded softly, rolled up his sleeves, revealing muscular arms, and started to work.

Eleanor was unpacking the herbs that Aaron Underwood asked her to categorize and occasionally looked over at Alaric.

The man was tall, effortlessly placing things in the highest spots.

Just as Eleanor was daydreaming, Stella Hawthorne’s voice came from the door.

"Eleanor, are you here?"

Eleanor immediately panicked, ran over, and grabbed Alaric, pressing him down and tucking him under the table.

With Alaric’s special identity, if someone saw him with her, she’d be doomed.
