Lucinda couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Um, Claire, you shouldn't just call him by his first name like that."
Even if Professor Churchill was gorgeous, it wasn't right to be so casual with faculty.
What era was this? Professor Churchill was definitely going to use his venomous tongue to make this poor girl cry!
But to Lucinda's absolute shock, Professor Churchill wasn't angry at all.
"What were you guys just saying about me?"
Norris sat right down next to Lucinda. "You don't mind if I sit here, do you, Miss?"
Lucinda looked like she was about to cry. "Please, go ahead. I don't mind."
Even if she did mind, he was already sitting!
Sure enough, the rumors about Professor Churchill attacking indiscriminately were entirely true.
He was attacking her fragile soul right now!
She didn't want to sit next to him; his intimidating aura was making her want to bawl!
"Nothing, just debating whether you or Dane is more handsome."
Claire didn't even blink, showing absolutely zero panic at being caught.
She hadn't said anything wrong anyway, right?
Well, maybe she wasn't so sure the second time around.
"And what was your verdict?" Norris smiled, seeing that his cousin wasn't the least
bit guilty.
Not bad, she had excellent psychological fortitude.
"I said Professor Churchill was the most handsome, of course!"
She dropped the familiar tone, wondering if blurting out his first name earlier had raised any suspicions.
Norris had heard her call him by his first name and assumed she had finally relaxed around him.
Now she was back to 'Professor Churchill,' so he played along. "Is that so?"
Norris knew instantly that she was lying.
That wasn't what Claire had said at all.
"Then why did I hear someone say they both had their own unique charm?"
Hearing this, Claire gave up the act. "If you heard everything, why did you even ask?"
"Having unique charm means you're both handsome in your own way. Are you still not satisfied with that, Professor Churchill?"
"Isn't that a bit greedy?"
Norris was speechless.
"You little brat," Norris muttered, deciding to let it go. He stood up, not the

Claire's mouth twitched. The gossip wasn't even over, and she was already on her cousin's blacklist?
What could possibly be more explosive than what just happened?
"Since we're already here, let's hear the rest of it!"
Claire decided to power through.
Otherwise, she would have been scared for nothing earlier.
"That history professor, Honoria Beaumont, is going after Professor Churchill."
Lucinda was finally able to drop her biggest bombshell.
She couldn't keep this juicy secret to herself; everyone needed a bite.
"Are you serious?"
Priscilla's eyes went wide.
An unapproachable god like Professor Churchill needed an absolute bombshell of a woman. Was this Professor Beaumont pretty?
Claire actually remembered Honoria.
Because she had been close to Norris, and that professor had glared at her with thinly veiled hostility.
She never expected that the woman was actually trying to date her cousin!
"I don't think we've ever seen Professor Beaumont."
Priscilla genuinely had no memory of her.
She practically lived in the library, and Honoria wasn't from the medical school anyway.
Guessing they would say that, Lucinda pulled out her phone, swiped the screen, and pulled up a picture of Honoria.
"Look, the one wearing the pearl earrings is Professor Beaumont."
"She's pretty stunning, isn't she?"
Anyone who didn't know Honoria well would agree she was beautiful and incredibly elegant.
A handsome man and a gorgeous woman-why couldn't they be together?

woman to chase a man. Who knew,

Beaumont soon enough.
