Bill was stumped, but he racked his brains rapidly as everyone watched and decided to keep pretending after half a beat.

Otherwise, not only would he be embarrassing himself in front of Winter, but he would also be the joke of every student in this university and a subject of ridicule across all of Riverton.

At that point, there was no hope for him to get a job in the Draconia's medical field, even if there were generations of doctors from his family.

Hell, it would deal a lethal blow to his father's business, as no one would even care to visit his hospital. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Hence, he swiftly changed his look of surprise into anger and promptly snapped at Frank, intent on chasing him out. "Who are you? Who allowed you into this hall?! No outsiders are allowed here!"

Winter promptly sided with Frank, "He's my brother, Bill. He's not an outsider."

The other students nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, Bill. You wouldn't know him since you're always abroad."

"He's not an outsider-he's a lecturer in this university, and he's very popular at that."

"He's just usually away."

"What?! Oh, haha..." Bill exclaimed in shock and realization, but quickly switched gears and flashed Frank an insincere smile. "I see. Apologies, Professor Lawrence, but I've been abroad and only returned for my convocation."

However, his eyes flashed as he saw that Winter was still hugging Frank, and he snapped, "Even if you're a head of Grande Pharma pharmaceutical research and a consultant, you should really watch yourself These Riverton bigwigs are attending this convocation out of respect for my father, so don't think you can claim credit as an excuse for being late."

"If I were you, I'd be truthful and apologize to my sister instead of trying to look important. Don't you feel ashamed now that I've exposed you?"

Even as he finished, Bill was sweating bullets. He had no idea who invited those bigwigs, but he had tricked Jean into telling him about Frank beforehand-specifically the part where Frank was the head of Grande Pharma pharmaceutical research, but he was very close with Vicky Turnbull and the rumors that she was his sugar mommy.

As such, Bill was dead sure some gigolo living off a woman would never have the influence to call up so many Riverton bigwigs.

It was why Bill was dead set on bracing himself and riding his high horse!

Regrettably, Frank's influence was more than what he could imagine.

He stared speechlessly at Bill trying his best to look calm-he was the one who called all the bigwigs here, so what the hell did it have to be with that brat?

Was it possible that he had connections and influence too? Some kid from an important family, perhaps?

While he was left at a loss, Winter saw that things were getting awkwardly and quickly introduced, "That's Bill Jackson. He has just returned from abroad as an exchange student in our medical faculty."
