Chapter 478: Chapter 478
The soup was all splashed on the ground, not a bit landed on Felix Fuller. He patted his chest, still feeling a lingering fear.
Suddenly, Felix froze.
He found his hand could move!
Then Felix tried to stand up by holding onto the table, without any hindrance, except for a slight soreness in his knee.
Everyone was stunned! They all stared at Felix with wide eyes.
What the heck is going on?
Isn’t Felix able to stand up? Then why was he kneeling and fussing earlier? Is he acting?
Eleanor Sterling curled her red lips and laughed, "Felix, was it fun pretending?"
Stella Hawthorne angrily pointed at Felix, gritting her teeth and said, "Felix! You were perfectly fine.
You were deliberately kneeling and refusing to get up, trying to slander us, you’re really mean!"
Eleanor almost got punished because of Felix. How could Stella not be angry?
The people around heard their words and looked at Felix with disdainful eyes, whispering among themselves.
"Felix played this trick so well!"
"Exactly, I was fooled. I thought he genuinely couldn’t get up from the ground."
"With this acting, he belongs in showbiz, not in a medical school."
"Using such dirty tactics to smear two girls, shameless!"
"So his words earlier were not credible, and now it proves his character is flawed." Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novèlfire.net
Felix looked aggrieved, unable to express his grievances.
What is going on? He genuinely couldn’t move just now, now he can.
But who would believe him if he said it?
Declan Dempsey looked displeased, feeling he was being played. He glared at Felix.
He harshly criticized him, "Felix, as a man, it’s disgraceful to do such a petty thing, you can’t be entrusted with great tasks!"
Eleanor gave a faint smile and said, "Professor Dempsey, Felix was pretending, and you were deceived too. Just don’t trust outsiders easily next time."
After saying this, she inadvertently glanced at Giselle Keating, the meaning obvious, implying Giselle guided the professors.
Giselle intended to go along smoothly but ended up attracting trouble.
She remained silent, with an overcast expression.
Silas Hawthorne heard Stella saying she was bullied by Felix, and his brows couldn’t help but furrow.
He was already planning to deal with Felix before.
Now that Stella saw through Felix, he had no more scruples.
Felix immediately shouted to clarify for himself, "I wasn’t pretending, Stella incited Eleanor to confront me, I was numb and couldn’t stand."
Seeing Silas, all of Stella’s grievances surged into her heart. She looked at him with teary eyes and complained.
"Felix slandered me for cheating with Xander Lawson, it’s clearly him who wronged me first."
Alaric Faulkner and Silas stood together, and Felix seeing Stella looking towards that direction felt Stella was acting coquettishly to Alaric.
Felix got angry, pointing at Stella said, "Stella, you’re ambiguous with Xander and wronged me, now you want to act pitiful in front of President Faulkner?
I used to think you were simple, but turns out you’re a flirt.
No wonder you could hook up with Xander and kick me aside, and you teamed up with Eleanor to frame me.
I was truly blind to be seduced by you. Everyone should see Stella’s true face!
Don’t be deceived by her, she’s a promiscuous, worthless wench!"
