Chapter 794
He remembered seeing Anastasia hesitate before choosing her herbs and was certain she didn’t know the function of Heartbreak Vine either.
So he quickly added, “If you’re so smart, you tell us. If you get it right, I’ll admit you deserve the perfect score!”
“Fine!” Anastasia agreed without a second’s thought. She then flawlessly explained in detail the role Heartbreak Vine played in the formula.
The professors on the side listened and praised her. “That’s right, that’s exactly its purpose. Not a single mistake! This perfect score is well and truly deserved!”
As for Yves, who had repeatedly failed to give an answer, it was obvious to everyone that he had no idea.
Yves was completely dumbfounded.
Dean Jerome was satisfied with the outcome. Although Yves’s antics had been irritating, this student named Anastasia had earned her score fair and square.
The Institute was about to gain another outstanding talent, and he was very pleased. After reprimanding Yves, he was ready to leave with Harrison.
But just then, Harrison suddenly spoke.
“Is that all? The leniency of the Global Harmony Medical Institute is truly eye- opening.”
Anastasia immediately looked at her Hubby.
Sensing Harrison’s displeasure, Dean Jerome asked cautiously, “What do you mean, Mr. Lancaster?”
Harrison’s imposing gaze fell on Yves. “A person of such character is allowed to join the Global Harmony Medical Institute?”
“If he’s willing to slander and frame a fellow student, can he truly be trusted to have medical ethics when treating patients?”
Seeing Harrison stand up for her, Anastasia secretly curved her lips into a smile.
Jerome understood the man’s meaning and was somewhat surprised. Why did Mr. Lancaster detest Yves so much?
Of course, Jerome wasn’t about to offend Mr. Lancaster for a student with poor character. He immediately said, “You are right, Mr. Lancaster. A student like this does not deserve a place at the Institute=”
At these words, Yves panicked.
Just then, he spotted a familiar face and his eyes lit up. “Queena-“
Queena, who had just arrived, immediately scowled at the sound of her name.
That idiot! Was he afraid people *wouldn’t* know about their connection? “Queena, what brings you here?”
“I heard the junior members were having their assessment, so I came to take a look…” Queena answered Jerome. After a few words to understand what had happened, couldn’t help but plead for Yves.
“Dean, what Yves did was wrong, but for this formula, he was only one herb away from a perfect score. He’s such a talented student. How can you ruin his future oversuch a small matter?”
Anastasia’s lips twitched.
A small matter? Easy for her to say.
Hearing Queena’s plea, Dean Jerome hesitated slightly and turned to Harrison for
his opinion. “Mr. Lancaster, what do you think…”
Before Harrison could speak, Anastasia cut in.
“Ms. Sterling is right. That punishment is a bit too severe.”
As she spoke, everyone turned to look at her, wondering why she was suddenly speaking up for Yves.
Queena’s brow twitched. What was Anastasia playing at?
Yves was equally surprised and suspicious.
Anastasia ignored them, giving Harrison a subtle wink before continuing.
“He can stay, but not as an official member of the Institute. Why not put him on a probationary period? He can attend
student
as an auditing st
and if he passes the final evaluation, he can be granted official status. What do you think, Dean?”
