However, before she could finish her words, Pollard continued with a grim expression, "Do you know who the honored guest in the lounge is? That is Bennett Xu of the Zobery District Museum. He is an honored guest to us."

"I've gone through the effort of getting acquainted with them, and now I have the opportunity to treat him to a meal. Once Mr. Xu is pleased with us, all your future exhibitions would be approved by him." "You also know that the archaeology major is very neglected. It's not easy to find a good job with that major. Now, go in and propose a toast to Mr. Xu, and everything will be resolved. I'm doing this for your future. Don't you understand my good intentions?"

Pollard's words were filled with excitement. The more he talked about it, the more excited he got.

However, after both Fade and Joey heard this, their frown deepened.

Pollard's words were pleasant to the ear, but after giving it some thought, he was just someone who was trying to pull some strings.

Fade and Joey had never liked things like this. With her identity and background, there was no need for her to do this.

Therefore, she stared at Pollard as she replied seriously, "I'm grateful for your good intentions. However, I don't need any of those connections, so please don't worry about me."

After that, she turned around again and was ready to leave.

Upon hearing this, Pollard's face instantly darkened. His expression fell as he snapped, "Joey, is this how you treat your seniors? Don't forget, I'm now your university counselor. I'm about to become a lecturer at the end of this semester."

"Have you forgotten how to respect your teacher?" He asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, her face was filled with disgust. It seemed that she hadn't expected Pollard to be this kind of person.

Fade's expression grew cold as he stared at him. "It's a complete disgrace for someone like you to talk about respect for your teachers. There's no need to think about becoming a lecturer."

"Who do you think you are? The headmaster of Capital University? I, Pollard, am the university counselor of Capital University. How dare you stick your nose into my affairs?" Pollard looked at him with a disgusted expression.

Fade then replied blandly, "Of course, I'm not the headmaster of Capital University. However, it's still a piece of cake for me to strip you of your opportunity of becoming a lecturer."

After that, he directly took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. "Mr. Feng, hello, I'm Fade. I have something..."

Pollard's expression changed drastically when he noticed Fade making the call, but he was still incredulous as he asked, "Are you pretending to call the chancellor of Capital University? You brat, who do you think you are, trying to fool me?"

After saying that, Fade put away his mobile phone, glanced at Pollard and then said to Joey, "Don't worry, I have already talked to Uriah. He has decided to fire him." Hearing this, she nodded her head and answered, "Someone like him is indeed not qualified to be a teacher in our school."

Seeing this, Pollard stared at the two of them with a sneer and his face was full of disbelief. "How dare you still continue to pretend? Do you think you can deceive me with your petty tricks? What kind of person is Uriah? It's ridiculous how a phone call could've gotten me fired. Even if you want to act, you have to put in some effort."

Fade ignored his words.

Just as Pollard was feeling arrogant, his cell phone rang. When he looked at the phone number, he realized that it was from an anonymous caller. It was a call from Capital City.

At that moment, he couldn't help but frown. He stared at Fade and then picked up the phone. "You're so good at acting! You specially got a phone number from Capital City to call me. You must have changed the caller ID with some software!"

When he picked up the phone, a middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the line. "Are you Pollard, from the archaeological major? I'm Uriah. I'm officially informing you that you've been fired from Capital University."

Pollard was dumbfounded when he heard these words. Then, he looked at Fade with a sneer. "You actually made someone call me! Your acting skills aren't bad at all! However, it's a pity that I'm not going to fall for your tricks."

After speaking, Pollard turned on the speaker for the call. He then proceeded to shout, "Liar, are you still pretending? Let me tell you, I've already seen through your tricks. Something like this will not fool me. If you know what's good for you, then scram. I will forget about this."

On the other end of the line, Uriah was obviously very puzzled by Pollard's attitude towards him. He was dumbfounded for a moment, and then said in a furious voice, "Pollard, do you know what you're talking about? I'm Uriah, the chancellor of Capital University. You..."

"Huh, I've already seen through your act, so why are you still pretending? Is your IQ less than zero? Stop trying to act. You are such a bad actor. Otherwise, you will starve to death. Get lost!" Pollard cursed, and then hung up the phone casually. He put the phone into his pocket and looked at Fade proudly.

"You brat, what other tricks do you still have? It's useless. Such clumsy tricks are useless when it comes to me."

Fade stared at him and couldn't help but pause. Then he smirked. He didn't say anything, but just shook his head.

This guy had spoken to Uriah in such a manner. He was digging his own grave. Fade didn't need to do anything else; Pollard was done for.

"What are you laughing at!" Pollard stared at him and was about to curse, but at this moment, his phone rang again.

"D*mn, the swindler is back again. When is he going to give up?" Pollard scolded instinctively, but then he saw the caller ID, "Director Qi". He suddenly trembled, and his expression changed immediately. He respectfully answered the phone and forced a smile. "Director Qi, hello, I'm Pollard. Did you call me..."

Before he could finish his words, Director Qi shouted furiously on the other end of the phone. Both Fade and Joey could hear his voice.

"Pollard Liu, you are so bold that you dared to curse at the chancellor. You are courting death. Don't drag the entire university down with you. You..." When he heard this, Pollard was taken aback, and then he asked in surprise, "Director Qi, what do you mean? I, I didn't curse at the chancellor! I..." "You still wouldn't admit it! Just now, the chancellor gave you a call, and what did you say on the phone?" Director Qi was infuriated.

"Ah, well... Well..." Upon hearing this, Pollard's face instantly paled, and his face was filled with astonishment. "Just now, was that really the chancellor?"
