Chapter 269
Stanley’s deep voice rang out . “ Mr. Suarez , are you saying that the genius freshman is attending the Summit Academic Forum ? ”
What ?
The phrase “ genius freshman ” struck Jessica like a lightning bolt , instantly capturing her attention . Was the mysterious and aloof genius freshman about to make an appearance ?
“ She’s actually been in Hovendale this whole time , ” Dave replied . “ Unfortunately , you’ve never met her . She’ll be attending the Summit Academic Forum , so you two will finally get to meet . Please make sure to find some time to attend the event . ”
Stanley nodded . “ Alright . ”
After they hung up , Jessica was in shock . “ Stanley , the genius freshman has been in Hovendale all this time ? Who is she ? ”
Hovendale’s circle wasn’t that large , and she had never heard of this brilliant young woman before .
Jessica felt uneasy about the existence of this genius freshman .
Stanley , equally unaware , didn’t know who she was either .
Thinking about the freshman’s mysterious , cool demeanor , Stanley raised an eyebrow . To be honest , he was quite curious himself .
“ We’ll find out when the time comes , ” he replied .
Wendy had been bedridden for seven days , trapped in a feverish haze .
By the eighth day , she was better , her sickness slipping away . She was fully recovered .
Halsey and Cecelia rushed to her side . “ Wendy , you really scared us . ”
Wendy opened the window . The bright , warm sunlight poured over her fragile form , casting a golden glow . She took a deep breath of the fresh air outside , then playfully winked .
“ Girls , don’t worry . I’m fine now . ”
She had healed herself .
The light had returned to her eyes . Although the process of breaking herself apart and rebuilding was excruciating , she was well again .
She had accepted that Stanley didn’t love her and didn’t want her around anymore . She bore the pain and , with great effort , had carved Stanley from the depths of her heart .
She had no regrets .
She had loved with all her heart , throwing herself at the fire that ruined her .
And so , there were no regrets .
Halsey and Cecelia cheered .
“ I knew you wouldn’t let a man destroy you ! ”

“ You’re single again now . The world’s your oyster ! Screw Stanley ! ”
Wendy wrapped an arm around each of them . “ That’s right . It’s all in the past . Screw Stanley ! ”
They all laughed together .
Soon after , Wendy returned to class . It was Cyril’s lecture again .

Cyril was teaching at the front of the class , but Wendy felt drowsy and rested her head on the desk , dozing off . Seeing Wendy sleeping during his class , Cyril shook his head . She really didn’t deserve someone like Stanley . What Cyril didn’t know was that his opinion was about to change dramatically in the near future .
Cyril continued his lesson on the ancient medical text , “ Classic of Herbal Medicine “ . As he spoke , Wendy , still slumped on the desk , suddenly woke up . Her clear eyes fixed on him , and she raised her hand , signaling for him to
come over .
Cyril was stunned . What now ?
He walked over to her .
Wendy looked up at him and pointed out , “ You made a mistake earlier . ”
What ?
Cyril froze . He was considered a giant in the medical field – Wendy was the first to ever claim that he made a mistake .
Confident , Cyril rebutted , “ That’s impossible ! ”
Wendy sat up straight in her chair . “ Go back and check ‘ Classic of Herbal Medicine ‘ , Volume 10 , page 4008. You definitely made a mistake . ”
