Lillie usually had no time to spare because of her tight schedule, but since mother Bai "insisted", she really had no choice but to oblige.It"s not like she"s afraid of her mother—maybe a bit—she just won"t stop until she (Lillie) agrees to her wishes.
Currently, she was in front of Gabriel"s school, which was also her alma mater, Sky Emperor University [1]. Lillie did not bother altering her hair color to be identified as the former Student Council President, Theodora Crevier.
She rolled down her car"s tinted windows and let the security officers inspect it.
A middle aged officer scrunched his face, studying Lillie"s face before exclaiming, "Miss Theodora?"
"Old Shu, good to see you again." Lillie replied with a polite greeting. Old Shu gave her a kind smile, tipping his hat.
"I see you"ve dyed your hair. I almost didn"t recognized you! You look lovely as always."
"Thank you." Lillie did not correct him.
"Are you here to ask for school paperworks?"
"No. I"m here to visit my brother."
"Ah, alright then. I will not hold you much longer. Good day, miss."
When Lillie drove off, Old Shu was asked by his co-workers who she was. He only needed to mention a name before they nodded.
"Eh? Is there a male student with a surname Crevier here?"
"Now that you mentioned it, there"s no one."
"Since the surname Crevier belongs to a former student, I"m sure we"ll know whoever it was but..."
"But there is no one."
The security officers gave each other a confused look.

A pair of bright blue eyes stares dully at the white board that was scribbled with numbers and formulas he begrudgingly "need" to learn.
Gabriel"s head was bobbing forward from time-to-time but forced himself to focus on the white board. Dark bags hung at the bottom of his droopy eyes.
He let out a soft yawn as he let his chin rest on his palm. The pen on his hand was forgotten on the table, finally deciding to screw it! He needs sleep!
When his eyes were about to close, a loud thump pierced his eardrums, jolting him awake from his seat.
Turning his neck to the side, he send his seat mate a glare. Their professor stopped talking to attend to the commotion.
"Sleeping in my cla.s.s, Miss Li?" Their math profession raised his brow and gave her a look of disapproval.
Li Yi Fei sheepishly laughed, rubbing her aching forehead. "I"m sorry, sir. It won"t happen again."
Their professor sighed, shaking his head. "This is the seventh time, miss Li. I will no longer be lenient. Please go to detention after cla.s.s."
"Yes, sir..." Her head downcast, reluctantly complied.
Gabriel"s ears suddenly perked when certain student whispered something to their friend.
"How embarra.s.sing."
"I know right? Why can"t she follow her brother"s footsteps?"
"I bet his brother must be sick of her."
He averted his attention to Li Yi Fei and saw her remain impa.s.sive. Those students" voice wasn"t loud but it was audible to them.
His hands clenched in anger. "Why was she letting them insult her like that?"
To make his anger seethe, they even go as far as to insult her disposition as the Li family"s little princess.
How dare they. How dare they insult her!
"SLAM!"
Everyone flinched from the rough noise that their attention was quickly focused on the cause.
Gabriel and Li Yi Fei foolishly stare at the door. There, stood a gorgeous woman wearing a beautiful white blouse tucked in a loose, red capris pants. Her lips were painted red, piercing blue eyes penetrates into everyone"s souls.
Their profession gawked. "M..miss Theodora?" He called.
The professor was a former student of Sky Emperor University and he was with the same batch as the famous Student Council President, Theodora Crevier.
Although her hair color was different, he would recognize that beautiful face anywhere—since he was part of her fanboys club back then.
Why would the former CP President visit his cla.s.s all of a sudden?
Suddenly, he heard one of his female students said,
"Sister-in-law?"
