Chapter 92 She’s Done for
The typical presentation lasted about fifteen minutes and, unsurprisingly, received unanimous praise.
Nathael’s expression remained unchanged, and when his gaze fell on Maggie, there was no difference from others. It seemed like he was just focused on listening to her talk about design, without any other
emotions.
But Nathael knew that was not the truth.
Perhaps only at this moment, he could look at her without any restraint.
Soon, it was time for the next student to take the stage, and after a few more students, it was quickly Vanessa’s tur.
At this moment, Vanessa was still immersed in feelings of unwillingness and disappointment. Not only did Maggie not embarrass herself, she even won applause from the audience.
But how could it be…
That person clearly said it was already successful.
With no response to the messages sent out, Vanessa felt that she had probably encountered a scammer.
She couldn’t help but glance in Maggie’s direction. She is really lucky!
But before she could think more, it was her turn to take the stage.
Maggie’s eyes were cold, and she always looked down on the despicable means used by Vanessa.
Vanessa did have some talent in designing, but that was all. The mentor had once commented on her design, saying that there were too many distractions and impurities, always striving for perfection, which would always incorporate some messy things, turning it into something unrecognizable.
In short, she wanted too much, and she was too greedy.
“Hello, Professor, leaders, and all the designers. This time, the topie’l have received is ‘Research on the Transformation of Old Rural Buildings under the Background of Leisure Tourism.”
After a brief introduction, Vanessa turned to open her computer.
To her surprise, the computer froze after unlocking the screen, and it remained stuck.
She furrowed her brow, feeling somewhat annoyed. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
The computer has always been fine before, so why is it choosing to act up at such a crucial moment?
The sound of tapping on the mouse was crisp and clear, standing out in the quiet and empty classroom.
In the next moment, the screen finally moved.
Before Vanessa could even catch her breath, the screen suddenly turned into a blank white screen, with a black sketch of a wolf drawn on it, vivid and lifelike.

screen. I am an ingrate.
Seeing this, the leaders and mentors in the audience couldn’t help but furrow their brows, and Vanessa’s brow also furrowed tightly, showing signs of panic.
What’s going on??
How did it turn out like this?
She quickly tapped on the mouse, but the computer seemed to be stuck on this page, no matter how much she clicked or pressed any keys, it remained motionless.
Maggie sat in the audience, watching coldly.
There was no need to think about it; such childish strokes must be the work of Lucas. She took out her phone and sent him a message. ‘Nice drawing.
Upon receiving praise from Maggie, Lucas couldn’t help but smile and replied, ‘Of course. I’m a pro
Maggie didn’t reply, but she was curious to see how Vanessa planned to resolve the embarrassment in front of her.
Unexpectedly, Vanessa had to forcibly shut down her computer in a hurry. “Sorry, I need to restart.”
After the forced shutdown, the computer finally returned to normal.
Vanessa breathed a sigh of relief and quickly found her graduation thesis. But as soon as she opened the document, she was stunned.
There was an instant murmur in the audience, with many people furrowing their brows.
On the screen, a series of inappropriate images flashed before everyone’s eyes, making them feel uncomfortable.
Maggie was speechless.
“Oh my, what is all this? Is Vanessa out of her mind?”
“Maybe her computer is malfunctioning. She wouldn’t intentionally display such things in this setting.”
“Tbet she usually looks at these things herself, so her computer must have caught a virus, causing this.”
“Indeed, I’ve heard that those websites are full of viruses. I never thought someone would actually try it.
“Vanessa doesn’t appear to be that type of person. Could there be some mistake
“Who knows what’s happening? I wonder if she checked her computer before the defense today.”
The discussions surrounding her continued, causing Maggie a headache. She rubbed her temples and took out her phone, sending another text to Lucas.
‘Give me a report. A thousand words at least.
Lucas was incredulous and replied, ‘What? Why? Are you not entertained?”
Chapter 92 She’s Done for
Maggie was so angry she wanted to grab him and give him a slap. ‘You’ve tainted my eyes.
‘Oops.
This was something Lucas truly hadn’t expected.
He ran his hand through his hair, the cold–hearted young man deciding to play dead.
Who would have thought, the next second, Maggie’s message came again, I can’t believe you’re going through trash websites like that. You’re still a kid. Reflect on yourself.
Looking at the content of the text message, Lucas was momentarily stunned.
Since his parents passed away, it seemed like no one had cared for him like this, he didn’t like the people from the Camerons, they didn’t feel as genuine as the people from the Finch family.
Perhaps it was the kindness of the Camerons towards him that sometimes made him feel a sense of moral ambiguity.
To put
it bluntly, their kindness was tinged with some utilitarianism and insincerity. It was not pure.
‘I am already an adult.’
Lucas lazily replied to the message, and unsurprisingly, he didn’t receive a response from Maggie.
Meanwhile, Vanessa stood on the stage, looking at the things popping up on her computer, her mind went. blank, and she was completely stunned.
What… what is going on?
How did all this mess end up on my computer!
She subconsciously looked down at the audience, and saw several school leaders frowning and whispering to each other, obviously very displeased with her actions.
Vanessa’s checks turned red with embarrassment, she clicked the mouse in a panic, but no matter how many times she clicked, there was no response on the screen.
“Shut it down!” The leaders in the department felt embarrassed and stood up, reprimanding her coldly.
This shout made Vanessa tremble all over, as if she had just woken up from a nightmare.
The more anxious and nervous she became, the more her whole body trembled, her fingers completely out of control. In the end, in a moment of desperation, she unplugged the power source.
Instantly, the whole classroom fell silent.
Vanessa stood on the stage, feeling an unprecedented sense of embarrassment. The gazes from below fell on her like countless sharp arrows, piercing her body.
Her throat tightened, and there was a hint of moisture in her eyes. She didn’t know how to explain the situation today.
But she knew, no matter how she explained it, she was finished.
Chapter 92 She’s Done for
Because not only were the leaders from the department present today, but also the leaders from the school and some designers and entrepreneurs from the industry.
In plain terms, she had embarrassed the school, and it was a big embarrassment.
Maggie also had a headache. She clearly didn’t expect Lucas to make such a big deal out of things. But then again, he was always like this, with a youthful arrogance that seemed to thrive on chaos.
