My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 323

The comments below the post were extremely offensive.

‘No wonder she has great results. It turns out that she’s the wife of the vice chancellor!’

‘The girl in the post is Sophia Edwards, a first-year junior in School of Business Management and Law. Some time ago, I heard that she married an old man. It turns out that it’s the vice chancellor. Now it makes sense!’ This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

‘Pfft. Our vice chancellor really is something.’

‘I heard that this girl is always absent for classes. I don’t believe that there’s nothing going on since she plays truant frequently and still ranks among the top in examinations.’

‘No wonder a five-year-old kid joined the junior class this year. So that’s the vice chancellor’s son. It makes sense now!’

Bayside University had the hardest entrance examination in all of Cethos. Those who successfully entered the university worked extremely hard for years. Others even paid a hefty sum of university construction fees. Now that they found out someone could easily enter the university by marrying the vice chancellor, everyone was in an uproar. Some even sarcastically told Nathan off. Many of them only managed to enter the university and became a first-year junior at the age of over 20. How could someone enter Bayside University at such a young age? However, there had been too much false information on the forum lately so many students were skeptical too.

‘It’s not really convincing. They’re just shaking hands. What does it prove? This is not the first time Sophia is framed. The person who secretly takes this photo harbors sinister intentions.’

‘Richard Harper, who previously fabricated stories that she was bought off by a male classmate, has been circulated a notice.’

‘A photo can tell a story which is fabricated. It’s all the same method and plot. Normally, there will be a twist after a few days.’

‘Even if they’re really married, what does it have anything to do with us? After all, she really is a high achiever in academics. So what if they are an old husband and young wife?’

Sophia briefly read through the comments. Then, she put down her phone and continued reading her books. On the contrary, Stanley felt anxious. “Aren’t you going to do anything about it?”

While flipping through her notebook, Sophia replied, “It’s just a rumor. I’m not affected by it at all. What can they do to me? I’m very busy and I don’t have the time for these things.” After experiencing life and death, she was completed unaffected by these insignificant rumors. What could they do to her? It’s not like they would eat her or break her leg. Would Bayside University expel her due to a rumor? All she needed to do now was study hard and piss off those haters that created trouble for her. Weren’t they trying to make things difficult for her in Bayside University? Well then, she would show them the exact opposite! She suddenly understood Michael’s attitude of remaining calm when he faced rumors that flooded the internet.

Stanley was speechless. Why was she acting the same way as his uncle? The main party wasn’t anxious but the surrounding people panicked for them. As their nephew, he was panicking like a cat on hot bricks.

While Sophia concentrated on the class and her studies, Stanley could no longer remain quiet. He started to discuss a solution with a few of his fellow classmates. Due to the highly disproportionate numbers of girls and boys in School of Computer Science, it was termed as ‘gay school’.

Girls had always been rare in the gay school so when Sophia came, everyone either intentionally or unintentionally paid attention to her. Although she didn’t spend long hours here, her character as an

academic overachiever had been deeply engraved in their hearts. No one believed that rumor.

Everyone had been suppressing their anger, waiting to strike when the time is right. Yet, the vice chancellor was even more anxious than the gay school. Yesterday, Joe visited him for no reason and claimed that he came to visit as family. He even called him his son-in-law, saying that since he married Sophia, he was now his son-in-law.

The vice president felt so confused and chased Joe away in a huff. Unexpectedly, Joe went off his rocker and started to curse him in the office.

He threatened that he must recommend Faye for admission to a graduate school since he bought his daughter with 80 thousand. Otherwise, he would expose this incident to the public! Boiling with rage, the vice president called security to drag Joe out.

After someone told him to read the post in the forum only did he know what had happened. They thought that he married Sophia and that he was the old and ugly coal mine owner that bought Sophia with 80 thousand?

They even thought he was Nathan’s father? Sophia faked her high school results? And Nathan faked his university entrance qualification? The vice president almost exploded in anger!

He had spent several decades at Bayside University since his bachelor’s degree to doctorate, and stayed at the university to work as a lecturer. His wife was also a lecturer in Bayside University whereas his son was studying at the postgraduate department.

Every lecturer in the university knew about that except the students because they wanted to keep a low profile. He was greatly misunderstood.

Yesterday, the vice chancellor had just informed everyone that Sophia’s husband would be donating a multipurpose building and a few million in student grants. Yet today, someone fabricated stories about

them.

The leader of the university attached great importance to this matter and immediately started to identify the person who spread the rumors by checking the IP address.

To their dismay, they found that the culprit was someone who had been expelled years ago and they had no way to find him since he had gone overseas. The post in the forum was deleted but it couldn’t stop the rumors from spreading like a virus. In this era of networking, nothing could remain concealed.

Right at that moment, Joe came to cause trouble again. Upon knowing that his son-in-law was the vice chancellor of Bayside University, Joe was over the moon. The vice chancellor was someone prominent too; he was one of the Fletchers!

All the information he had about his son-in-law, such as old and ugly, crazily wealthy, from the Fletcher Family, wasn’t married nor had a son, it all matched the vice president. Besides, he was also at Ethan’s charity banquet that day and coupled with Sophia’s attitude of concealing something, he was sure that the vice chancellor was his son-in-law!

Having the vice chancellor of Bayside University as his son-in-law meant that his daughter, Faye, was guaranteed an admission to a graduate university no matter how poor her results were!

The rumor had just spread two days ago and the Edwards had come to inquire about that. If he could establish a connection with the vice chancellor of Bayside University, he could decide the eligibility of all the younger generations in the Edwards Family to get into Bayside University!

Getting into Bayside University was beyond difficult. Those with poor results couldn’t get in no matter how much they offered to pay for the university construction fee. If he had this connection, his status in the Edwards Family would rise steadily!

Joe couldn’t wait to let everyone know that he was the father-in-law of Bayside University’s vice chancellor. After being chased out, he went to the university to throw his weight around again. This time, he sneaked in through the back door.

Once he barged into the vice chancellor’s office, he started to acknowledge his relationship with the vice chancellor. The vice chancellor was enraged and almost got into a fight with him which caused him to be quickly escorted out by security. Once again, Joe was thrown out of the university.

It was quite a distance from the vice chancellor’s office to the nearest university entrance. Therefore, the students along the way heard Joe as he shouted in his loud voice, “Fletcher, I’m your father-in-law. You will be punished by the gods sooner or later if you do this to me!

Take a good look, everyone! A son-in-law is hitting his father-in-law! My daughter is really unfortunate to marry you. Sophia, my daughter! Where are you? Your husband is beating me to death! Do any of you know Sophia, who’s in the first year? Call her over. I’m her father and her husband is hitting me!”

It was right when classes ended at noon. All the students along the way heard his shouts and thought of the post in the forum. Many that didn’t believe the rumor at first finally believed it now. So it was true that Sophia was married to the vice chancellor!

Everyone whispered excitedly as they watched Joe get carried away. Xyla stood among the crowd, feeling content. Sophia, your scandal is finally exposed! Let’s see whether you’d still be able to stay at Bayside University! Weren’t you dreaming of becoming famous using Bayside University as a springboard? I’ll have you know that a peasant will always be a peasant!
