Aggresive Wife Chapter 218

“What kind of statement is that? Our honorable Ms. Solace has come here personally to submit her information. We are only doing this because we see you guys in high regard. Otherwise, do you think we would care to come all the way to this place?”

Liam could not stand Professor Seeker’s attitude, and he was firing back at him with indignation.

At the same time, Liam inadvertently revealed their purpose for coming here.

“You should go to the informatics department for that, why do you come to the meeting room? The meeting room is a place for us to do the final selection. Considering the fact that you’re here at this exact juncture, I can’t look the other way and say that you don’t have any ulterior motives. It is clear as day why you guys are here at this moment. Do you really want me to spell it out for you?”

Although Professor Seeker was an old-school person, he was always very clear-headed. Since the other party was not going to budge, he looked up from his documents and looked at this honorable missus seated opposite him.

There was a majestic look in his eyes.

He had been an educator his whole life, so he had seen too many students to know their type. When Annalise and her group appeared, he immediately knew what they were aiming for. They were here to pry into some classified information just when the selection process was about to begin.

He was not a fan of such behavior, and since his warning was not working and the other party would not budge, he had no other choice than to spell out his thoughts.

“You old b*stard…” Realizing that this old geezer had seen through their plans, Liam immediately wanted to insult him, but he was stopped by Annalise.

“Liam, watch your mouth.”

It was the first time Annalise had spoken since entering the meeting room.

Madeline was watching this incident unfold together with Albert. They were not allowed to come any closer because those bodyguards were stopping them.

The moment she heard Annalise speak, she immediately felt that this daughter who came from the riches was on another level. Her whole demeanor was so gentle and soft.

“You must be Professor Seeker of this association, am I right? You are always a strict and uptight person, and I have long heard about your reputation. My subordinates are not familiar with the workings of things, so I hope that you won’t get provoked by them.”

“Are you Annalise?”

“Yes.”

“I see. Just leave your application there. You can go now.” Professor Seeker did not plan to stand on ceremony.

The selection process was still in the preliminary stages. There was no need for applicants to be interviewed yet.

Those who would not follow standard procedures would only mess up his work. It did not matter if Annalise of the Solace family was there; even if the king had come to see him, Professor Seeker would implore him to turn around and go away.

“You old geezer, it seems when a carrot won’t work for you, it’s a stick that’s needed to make you tick.”

“Liam, Professor Seeker is more senior than us. You need to watch your behavior. Back off now.”

“Yes, Ms. Annalise.”

“Professor Seeker, I personally come here to tell you of my situation. This is all for the convenience of the judging panel so that the association can quickly make up its mind about the Ambassador for Philanthropy of Imperia. I hope that you can give me a chance.”

Annalise stood up and walked towards Professor Seeker. She stopped just in front of the professor and bowed solemnly.

She was humbled and well-mannered.

“Our selection process has always been transparent, so the fact that you’re barging in to recommend yourself is against our guidelines. I really hope that you can understand our concerns and cooperate with us. What’s more, if you’re good enough, no one can take away

what would eventually belong to you!”

“Professor Seeker…” Annalise never expected that there existed someone who would not bend down in the name of the Solace family. She wanted to continue to persuade him, but Professor Seeker had already turned his back on her.

Annalise felt humiliated after getting the cold shoulder.

However, she was able to maintain her sensibility as she turned around and walked out of the meeting room while suppressing her anger.

When Annalise walked out of the room, Madeline was finally able to get a good look at her face.

She had delicate features and lips, and her body was model-like. She wore a long figure-hugging white dress and a rare and fashionable diamond belt was the cherry on the cake. She had a classy and majestic feel to her.

She was quite the beauty.

Madeline was always forgiving when it came to beauties. Since Annalise was so good-looking, Madeline wouldn’t even feel thrown off even if Annalise were to act rashly and arrogantly.

Annalise came out with a darkened expression. She led her group towards the elevator and seemed like they were leaving.

Madeline stopped watching this turn of events and took this opportunity to enter the meeting room to start her work.

Professor Seeker was one of only a few who knew Madeline’s true identity. Upon seeing her at the door, he came out to welcome her warmly.

“Hey, you’re finally here, Maddie. I know that you’ve waited for too long.”

“Professor Seeker, sorry that I am late. Thank you for the hard work!”

“What are you saying, my dear? Why stand on ceremony with me? Come in, come in!”

Coincidentally, Professor Seeker’s complete turnaround in attitude was heard by those who were still in the elevator.

Annalise’s expression was even more hideous now!

Ever since she successfully became the sole daughter of the Solace family, nobody even dared to look down on her.

She could not believe that she would lose to some unknown, random girl!

This was too despicable! Too deplorable!

Liam, who was standing next to her, immediately felt the change in his master’s emotions. He immediately took the chance to fire a shot, “Professor Seeker, is this how you treat guests? Ms. Solace has personally visited to submit her application to express her sincerity, yet you asked her to get lost. How are you treating someone else so warmly for the same reason? Are you saying that the ambassador award is already predetermined by the association?”

Liam thought smugly that he had caught the professor’s mistake, and he was banking on it to be his argument towards their mistreatment just now.

Before they made their appearance, they investigated the management of the Charity Association thoroughly. Besides the chairman whose identity was still a mystery, they knew every other member of the association.

“I never thought that Professor Seeker, who is always righteous and steadfast, would engage in corruption too. I wonder, what if the public knows about this? How would your widespread and glorious reputation be affected?”

Liam was already back at the door. When he saw how Professor Seeker was caringly catering to Madeline by holding out a chair for her, he couldn’t suppress his anger anymore.

“Who are you? Are you here to submit your application too, lad?”

Professor Seeker was busy tending to Madeline, so he only realized that someone was standing at the door now.

His eyesight was really bad, and he could only see a vague figure standing at the door with his hands on his waist. This person had a feminine tone in his voice, so the professor didn’t think too much before asking about the visitor’s intention.

“Pfft!” Madeline could not hold back as she laughed out loud.

“What are you laughing about, woman? I am talking about you. You’re using the backdoor so blatantly, yet you think you’re so good? I will capture a photo of this and expose your dirty underhand dealings!”

Liam was infuriated as he forked out his phone and was about to take a picture.

“Ms. Madeline, Ms. Solace’s assistant has stepped past his boundaries. I will ask the security guard to escort him out.” Albert couldn’t bear to see this fiasco.

“It’s alright, just let him take a picture of us if he so wishes. Professor Seeker, give me a copy of the nominees’ information. Let me take a look at it.”

Madeline had no intention to waste her time on someone like Liam. After settling down, she started to get into work just like Professor Seeker.

Liam was recording a video of the scene, and when he saw Professor Seeker handing all the documents to Madeline, which included Annalise’s application, he was immediately offended.

He rushed towards them with his phone still in his hand, and he snatched away those documents in one swift motion.

“Hey, what do you think you are doing?” Madeline initially wanted to smooth things out without any scuffling since she thought that there must be some misunderstanding. After all, this person was a watchdog of a huge conglomerate family, and it was only normal for him to act like this. She did not want to escalate the situation.

However, this person was really crossing his boundaries. She did not expect him to just invite himself in and snatch away her documents.

Her hand was tingling with pain because of several accidental paper cuts.

That put Madeline in a foul mood.
