Chapter 56 Alexander is a sugar daddy?
"If Katherine can't play the violin, she should come down now! Let Yeager perform alone!"
"Yeah, come down! We've been waiting for a long time, so don't delay anyone any longer!"
This time, Yeager finally felt that she had successfully pressured Katherine. She felt very pleased with herself.
However, she didn't forget to show her gentle side. She said to Katherine in a gentle and sympathetic tone, "Katherine, since it's like this, I won't make it difficult for you. Why don't you go down first? It's probably better if I sing and play alone!"
"Alright." Katherine nodded lightly and agreed readily.
Perfect, she was too lazy to play the violin anyway!
As soon as she put down the violin and walked off the stage, she heard Yeager's group of friends in the front row making a commotion again. They were not speaking quietly...
"Katherine can't even play the violin. She's nothing special!"
"With her family background, who knows if her academic performance is really as outstanding as the rumors say? If her family is wealthy, it wouldn't be difficult to create a reputation as an all-around straight-A student!"
"Where does her family have money? I saw Katherine's file when I was sent to clean the archives before. She's just a country bumpkin. She was a student from a poor family before college, relying on financial aid to study!"
"What? A student from a poor family? Then how come her brother donated so much money to the school today?"
"Do you really think that was her brother? I guess she probably found a sugar daddy in Janetrick, relying on her looks! Aren't there often poor girls in society who degrade themselves for money?"
"Sugar daddy? Are you saying that handsome man today is Katherine's sugar daddy?"
"Otherwise, how could a young man like him be her real father? Hmph!"
"Oh, and I also heard a rumor in school that Katherine used to be called to the principal's office frequently. She would stay there for over an hour! I suspect she might have something going on with the principal, too! Otherwise, why would the principal praise her so much and let her take the spotlight at today's graduation ceremony?"
"No way! The principal is old enough to be her Grandfather!"
"Why not? The principal is also a man..."
The more they spoke, the more disgusted Katherine became. She stopped in her tracks, turned around, and walked towards those girls who were spreading rumors.
"What were you saying about the principal just now?"
As soon as Katherine came over to argue with them, these girls immediately felt guilty and flustered.
"If you heard it, why are you asking us?"
Katherine glared at them coldly and said, "The principal is highly respected. Do you think you can just casually defame him?"
One of the girls crossed her arms, looked up at Katherine, and said disdainfully, "Hmph! It's our freedom to say whatever we want!"
"Yeah, that's right!"
"Why are you so worked up when we mention the principal? Could it be that we hit the nail on the head?"
Katherine frowned and grabbed the collar of one of the girls. "Do you dare to say that again?"
The girl was startled and struggled, but she couldn't break free from Katherine's grip. However, she didn't back down either. "Katherine, are you trying to hit me? Huh, by acting like this, you only make us think you're guilty!"
Katherine narrowed her eyes slightly and let go of her. "I won't hit you. But you all have to apologize to Mr. Principal in front of all the students for the false statements you just made!"
As the girl adjusted her collar, she rolled her eyes and said, "You want us to apologize? Unless you can prove that you're a real straight-A student!"
Katherine sneered, "How do you want me to prove it?"
The girl immediately said, "If you can play a good piece on the violin, we'll believe that you have no improper relationship with the principal and that you're a true straight-A student!"
She was confident that Katherine couldn't play the violin; otherwise, why would Katherine have given up the opportunity to perform just now and come down from the stage?
Before Katherine could respond, the other girls chimed in...
"What's the matter? Can't you play?"
"If you can't play, stop pretending to be a straight-A student!"
"You can't even play the violin. Your reputation as a straight-A student is just a result of the principal's praise, right? And you say you don't have a special relationship with the principal; who would believe that?"
Katherine had never claimed to be a so-called straight-A student. It was all because the principal of Janetrick University admired her so much that he had been praising her grades everywhere, which led to this reputation.
And it was true that she was often called to the principal's office and would stay there for over an hour.
It was because the principal of Janetrick University was terrible at math, and she was the top student in the math department, so whenever the principal encountered a difficult math problem, he would come to her to discuss mathematical formulas. He would even put aside his identity as the principal and humbly ask her for problem-solving methods.
What was originally a simple matter had been twisted into something so vulgar by these people!
The principal simply admired her academic abilities.
She respected the principal very much and could not tolerate the idea of the elderly principal being tainted because of her.
With that in mind, Katherine said, "Alright! I will play a piece for you!"
As soon as she said that, it immediately caused laughter from the people around...
"Katherine, if you can't play, don't show off!"
"You just came down from the stage because you couldn't play the violin, and now you want to go up again. Do you think we will believe that you can play the violin? Haha..."
"When I say play a piece, I mean play it well and be recognized! Not just randomly strumming the strings and making noise!"
At this moment, on the terrace of the opposite private room...
Sunny, being young, was not allowed to drink and play poker with Alexander and Hilton. He had to come to the terrace and sit there, feeling bored to death.
Little Furry, his sidekick, also leaned over to take a look. "Hmm, it really seems to be Mrs. Melville!"
As soon as she finished speaking, her head received a punch from Sunny!
"What Mrs. Melville! She is not Mrs. Melville at all! She doesn't deserve it! Mrs. Melville can only be my sister!" Sunny corrected unhappily.
"Yes, Mr. Sunny Kyle! I misspoke..." Furry rubbed her own head in grievance and sighed helplessly.
Sunny stared at the opposite side and grinned, "Those people are her classmates, right? Huh, it seems that there are really many people who dislike her, not just me! This proves that Katherine must have a problem with her character!"
Furry didn't quite agree with Sunny's statement, "I don't think Katherine is that bad. It's clearly those few girls deliberately making things difficult for her... Ouch!"
Before she could finish her sentence, she received a kick from Sunny on her backside!
Sunny snorted, "Whose side are you on? I say she has a problem, so she does!"
Furry, feeling wronged, was on the verge of tears. "Okay, Mr. Sunny Kyle, you're right about everything!"
"That's more like it!" Sunny looked smug, "Furry, go downstairs and call Alexander and the others. Let everyone come and see that woman make a fool of herself! I don't believe that country bumpkin can play the violin!"
Furry felt that it was not right to do so, but she didn't dare to voice her opinion. She was afraid of another beating from Sunny, so she nodded and went downstairs.
