The True Lady Strikes Back novel (Cecilia and Christopher)

Chapter 12

Chapter 12 

Cecilia looked at the defiant assistant coldly and sneered. “If you regret it, feel free to come to me.” 

After saying that, she called the chancellor. 

Yvette kicked the assistant angrily. “Don’t think that if you don’t say it, we won’t know you’re under Juliana’s instruction!” 

The assistant pretended not to hear it. 

At this time, Cecilia had already connected with the chancellor. 

“Mr. Lane, please fire the assistant of Studio No. 5.” 

Hearing this, the assistant burst into laughter. 

“Just like that? You’re quite the actress! You should be in the performing arts department, not the music department!” 

Even Juliana and Yvette didn’t have the authority to order the chancellor to do anything. 

“She is a brainless country bumpkin who can’t even act,” the assistant thought. 

On the other end of the phone, the chancellor heard the assistant’s ridicule and agreed to Cecilia’s request without even asking why. “All right. I’ll arrange it immediately.” 

Soon after the call, the assistant quickly received a dismissal notice from the HR Department. 

The assistant couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw the dismissal notice signed personally by Hendrix. 

“It must be fake!” he thought. 

Yet, it had Hendrix’s personal seal and the HR department’s official stamp. It couldn’t be fake. 

He soon understood what was going on. 

“Mr. Lane and Cecilia are involved in some way!” he thought.

That was why Cecilia could skip classes, bully classmates without consequences, and even be a mistress without anyone intervening. 

With this realization, he pointed at Cecilia’s nose and scolded, “Don’t think you can be untouchable at Quilton University by having S** with Mr. Lane!” 

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. 

In their eyes, Hendrix had always been a model of virtue. They never thought that he would be involved in such scandalous affairs. 

Cecilia looked at the assistant who was turning the tables on her and gave him a cold, icy glare. “Shut your filthy mouth, or I’ll make sure you regret it.” 

“You dare to threaten me even after your secret is out? You’re such a…” Before the assistant could finish his words, 

Christopher kicked him, sending him flying. 

Crashing into the wall heavily, he smashed on the ground. His face hit the ground, causing him to lose two teeth and bleeding profusely. 

He must have broken some bones because he winced in pain with every movement. 

Yvette swallowed hard, immediately distanced herself from Christopher, and moved closer to Cecilia. 

She asked in a low voice, “Ceci, you’re not scared, are you?” 

Cecilia wasn’t scared at all. She just felt that Christopher was being too meddlesome. 

She preferred to take revenge on her own. 

Nevertheless, she couldn’t be ungrateful to him. 

“Mr. Christopher Forte, although I don’t need your help, thank you.” 

Christopher said with a faint expression, “You’re welcome. I
