Two hands swiftly hugged him from behind.
Deacon knew who it was without having to look back.
“Ma’am, I can see that you’re getting bolder by the day. You asked me to be your driver while I was still working, right?”
Oriana hugged tightly from behind, clinging tightly to him like an octopus.
“Mr. Armstead, why are there no taxi here? And besides, am I not your lady again? You should be happy that I requested you to drop me off.”
Deacon chuckled, as he was held firmly by Oriana. He closed his handsome eyes.
“Oriana, you’re making me want you more by the day.”
The Hendrix’s family was now covered in gloom. Patrick and Monica could not still believe that it was Oriana who had saved the old lady.
Patrick really couldn’t sit still. Since Oriana’s return, she had dragged him to hell countless times.
“Pamela, what’s the matter, huh? I sent Oriana to the countryside when she was nine years old. Where did she learn her medical skills from? Please tell me that this is all a misunderstanding and a joke.” Patrick muttered unbelievably.
Monica’s face was pale.
“Pamela, this issue is really massive. If Oriana can suppress you when It comes to medicine, then it’ll be very difficult for you to challenge her in the future.”
Pamela understood perfectly what her mother implied. If she couldn’t handle Oriana when it had to do with a man, and now, she still couldn’t handle Oriana when it came to the issue of her career. It could be concluded that Pamela was a sore loser when compared to Oriana.
“Mum, dad, Oriana is definitely not that easy to crack. I’m confident that she must be hiding some secrets. Right now, dean Sebastian is holding a conference at Starzeal hotel. I wanna go over and hear things for myself!” Pamela took her bag and left the room. She didn’t wanna waste of exposing Oriana.
Patrick and Monica quickly stood up and tagged along, any chances
“Pamela, wait up, let’s go with you. We’d like to see what more games that Oriana has to play!”
All the media reporters from LA had gathered. The press conference was to begin very soon.
Dean Sebastian glanced at his wrist watch and said to director Hudson who stood beside him. “Director Hudson, the time for the conference is almost here, go see if Oriana has arrived.”
“Yes, dean.” Director Hudson prepared to go in search of Oriana.
A beautiful and sweet voice quickly sounded,
“Dean, director Hudson, I’m here. So sorry I’m late.” Oriana ran over.
As soon as the protagonist arrived, the spotlight quickly fell on Oriana.
“Oriana, it’s good that you’re here. There’s no more time to waste. Let’s go to the rostrum now.
“Okay, dean.”
Dean Sebastian lead Oriana to the rostrum, which also indicated that the press conference had officially begun.
“Dean Sebastian, Oriana’s educational background is still a mystery. May we know the truth?”
“Dean Sebastian, all of LA knows that Oriana is the daughter of the Hendrix’s family, and Pamela has been a medical student since time immemorial, she even studied at the Holy Nile academy. But Oriana, she grew up in the countryside in an orphanage. How did she come about her medical talent? Was she self–taught?”
“In terms of academic qualifications, it seemed like it was impossible for Oriana to compete with Pamela. So we wanna know how Oriana became so good at medicine.”
The media reporters fired their questions to the dean.
Pamela, Patrick and Monica were all present. They still found it very difficult to believe that Oriana was a talented medical girl, so they all showed up in anticipation of exposing Oriana of her lies, if she did come up with something unbelievable.
When it came to education, Pamela rose her shoulders highly. She had always been a talented girl who grew up in up in the spotlight, and Oriana was only but a bum. And that, was a fact that Pamela was convinced that could never change.
It didn’t matter to her where Oriana learnt her medical skills, she still did not have any further education. That was her defeat!
Thinking of this, Pamela comforted herself a bit and adjusted proudly.
Dean Sebastian waved his hands and stared at the media reporters and guest.
“Everyone be quiet, please. I know that Oriana’s education has been a mystery up until now, and this topic is what everyone is interested in. If I’m being honest, Oriana’s education is quite comprehensive as it simple. She’s a first–class medical graduate from the university of Imperial, and she also has a double postdoctoral degree…”
What?
Double postdoctoral degree?
Pamela felt her heartbeat seize. How could she have thought that Oriana, an orphan who had just returned from the countryside, would have a double postdoctoral degree, and also was a first–class graduate of the university of Imperial!
“Oriana, you’re lying!” Pamela quickly stepped forward and loudly accused.
The reporters turned and saw Pamela. They were elighted, for they knew that it would be a wonderful scene to behold. They hastily grabbed their cameras tightly, as they awaited the drama.
Oriana sighted her family members and wasn’t surprised at all. She felt that it would be much more interesting with their presence.
The reporters turned the microphone to Pamela.
“Pamela, why do you think that Oriana is lying?”
“Do you have any evidence to back up your claims?”
“It turns out that both president Hendrix and Mrs. Hendrix are here.”
“Pamela, what do you think about Oriana being a double postdoctoral graduate?”
Pamela glared at Oriana and her face swiftly softened into a sneer.
“Oriana, you a double postdoctoral degree holder? This has to be the joke of the century. You just turned twenty, yet you dare to say that you’re a postdoctoral degree holder, right?”
Oriana sat quitely on the rostrum as she watched Pamela expressed her anger and hatred.
Oriana let out a loud sigh and responded to Pamela,
“Pamela, I know that it might be difficult for you to believe, but that’s the truth my dear.
Pamela snorted coldly,
“Then let me ask you, what was your score in the college entrance examination? We all know the grades that one needs to have before being admitted into Imperial medical university. You better not mess around, lest you’ll embarrass yourself!”
Everyone gaze was focused on Oriana. Oriana was calm as usual. She curled her lips and said in a beautiful voice,
“I’m sorry, but I didn’t take any college entrance examination.”
When Oriana’s words were heard, everyone’s expression changed.
“Oriana is a postdoctoral graduate, and she didn’t take the college entrance examination, how is that possible?”
“Could it be that Oriana is really lying?”
Pamela laughed. She knew that Oriana had already failed her test.
“Oriana, you didn’t take the college entrance examination, how then did you graduate with a doctoral degree? Come on, Oriana, educate us all.” Pamela urged.
Patrick and Monica couldn’t wait any further, as they stood up and said to Oriana.
“Oriana, there’s no need to lie anymore. Do you know how much it’ll cost for one to be able to study in the Imperial? I’ve never given you a cent, so where did you get the money from?” Patrick questioned mockingly.
“How can you study without money? Your story is full of loopholes. No one should believe her!” Monica added.
Oriana looked at the two shameless people before her. Oriana let out a chuckle, and shook her head lightly.
“Oh, so you two know that you’ve never gave me a penny. Yea, you both are right, it’s quite expensive to study in a university. I know that you both have a first hand knowledge of the cost of attending a university especially since your daughter Pamela, had not only attended a university. but had studied outside the continent of America. That must have cost you two hundreds of thousands of dollars.”
Patrick and Monica immediately went mute. They didn’t expect that Oriana would turn the conversation against them.
The reporters turned and pointed the microphone at them.
“Patrick, that was really cruel. You had two daughters, why did you only send Pamela to the university?”
Oriana scoffed and added,
“Mr. Hendrix and Mrs. Hendrix, child neglect seems to be a legal crime. Would I be lenient if I press charges against you two?”
