---- Chapter 181 Wendy frowned and shook her head. "Initially, assumed he didn't trust my abilities. But it seems like he just doesn't have a good character." Liam's gaze dimmed. "Plus, he's only targeting you and all that you do. I'm sure you've already noticed." "Was I really not just overthinking it?" She paused. " Previously , he also mentioned Jenna to me. I thought it was all just a coincidence." Her voice had just fallen when the door of the private room 'was pushed open.

The seniors who had arrived late interrupted the conversation between Wendy and Liam. Wendy could only stop talking to Liam and get up to greet them. Liam followed behind her and said in a low voice, "Don't worry. When it comes to dealing with someone like Julian, you can't use normal methods." Her footsteps paused. She couldn't help but turn around and ask, "Why are you so confident about this? Did you encounter similar situations in Veloria?" Liam raised his eyebrows. "Not many of them.

Just two or three times." Wendy already found Julian hard to handle, and yet Liam had already encountered similar situations two or three times ---- before. Wendy's gaze turned gentle as she looked at Liam. Liam smiled. "Do you think that I led a tough life in Veloria?" "Yeah. You didn't have a lot of friends either. There must not have been many who could have helped you during difficult times." Plus, in the past six years, Wendy had never even given hima call to ask him how he was doing.

Wendy pursed her lips. "I'm sorry. If I hadn't..." Before she could finish her sentence , Nathaniel called out to her, "Dr. Sanders." Liam reached out to pat her lightly on her shoulder. "We have a lot of time to talk about our personal matters. Just remember not to tell anyone about what happened just now. Although she didn't know what kind of strategy Liam had in mind, Wendy still nodded in agreement. She walked toward Nathaniel with a smile on her face. "Dr. Quinn, you're here.

Take a seat." Gregory was still chatting with the other seniors. Only Nathaniel was with them, a similar smile on his face. "What were you chatting with Liam about? Why did he leave when I came over?" Nathaniel looked at Liam's back, looking disappointed. Upon recalling that Gregory had mentioned Nathaniel's ---- admiration of Liam, Wendy immediately said, "Liam has something he wants to talk to Dr. Hendrix about.

If you need him for something, I'll ask him to come over." Nathaniel shook his head. "There's no need. I was just asking. That classmate of yours is just as capable as you are. I was just thinking that since Gregory already has an excellent student like you, it would be nice if I had one too." Wendy understood what he was implying. She couldn't help but laugh and say, "Dr. Quinn, you have so many students from all across the country. Many of them are extremely stellar." "It's not the same.

There's still a difference between hardworking people and geniuses." Nathaniel let out a sigh, seemingly disappointed. But after he said this, he added, "But you're right. All of my students are wonderful. I was just hoping for icing on the cake. "Icing on the cake isn't always the best. After all, the pupil always surpasses his teacher. I'm sure your students will be very excellent as well," Wendy replied. Wendy's words delighted Nathaniel .

Not only do you have amazing abilities, but you also know how to sweet-talk people. You're so much better than those boring people around me. Gregory sure is lucky!" "You're exaggerating. Dr. Drake is also quite a ---- conversationalist . Wasn't he the one who helped you manage all your social interactions?" After she finished her sentence, she looked over at Julian. Julian had been standing aside for quite a while and often glanced over, as if he were trying to spy on Wendy.

When Wendy suddenly looked over, their gazes met. Julian looked away quickly, looking as guilty as a thief who got caught.
