Chapter 443 “What do you mean?” Now that she had her parent’s attention, Trina said with a choked–up voice, “The Bonita Research Institute released an official tweet, saying that the winner of Pyralis University’s Scientific Research Competition will be offered an internship at their institute.” “What? Are you serious?!” Vera and Gresham were shocked by this news. “Uh–huh. There’s more. If the intern managed to excel, they might consider letting her work at the Institute.” Tears began flowing down her cheeks. “What should I do?! I would still be studying at Pyralis University if I hadn’t offended Bonnie. You know how talented I am in scientific research. I stand a really good chance of winning that competition and getting an internship at Bonita Research Institute. “This is all Bonnie’s fault. She ruined my bright future!” She cried her heart out. “It’s alright, Trina. Stop crying. You’re breaking my heart. You’re one of the most talented people I’ve ever seen. I’d even say you’re born to do it. Don’t worry, I won’t let your talent go to waste.” Vera looked at her husband and said, “You need to figure something out, honey.” Gresham breathed out a puff of smoke, his face looking distressed. “How am I supposed to do that? I warned Trina not to cross Bonnie again, but she wouldn’t listen. I event released a video on my Twitter account earlier. Now everyone knows Bonnie has nothing to do with met and the Shepards. Furthermore, I said we’d never look for her again. “Don’t you see that you’re making me humiliate myself by asking me to talk to her? What’s more, you know how Bonnie is. She’s going to let me have it. No way! I’m not going to look for her!” Trina cried even louder at that. “I’m sorry, Dad. I promise I’ve learned the error of my ways. You have to help me. I swear I won’t ever pick a fight with Bonnie anymore. I beg you. I’m going to repay you guys when I find success.” Vera wiped her daughter’s tears, pursed her lips, and made a decision. “Don’t worry about it, Trina. I’m going to help you and get over this hump!” “What do you think you’re doing?” Gresham asked, “Are you honestly going to look for Bonnie? It’s pointless. You know how she is.” Clenching her fist, she said, “That’s right! I’m going to look for Bonnie! If she refuses to let Trina return to the university, I will get down on my knees in front of all the students and professors. She has to agree to it, then.” Trina beamed as soon as she heard what her mother said. ‘Bonnie has to let me return to Pyralis University now. Otherwise, everyone’s going to reprimand her for making her own mother kneel before her. “That’s outrageous! It doesn’t matter what happened between us, you are her biological mother. You’re going to humiliate yourself!” Gresham vehemently disagreed with the way she was going to handle it. “Hmph!” Vera grunted coldly. “Trina is our daughter, and she’s immensely talented. As her parents, we must ensure her academic life and career are smooth sailing. “You won’t do it. So, I’ll have to do it myself. I’m going to Pyralis University first thing in the morning!” The next morning. Bonnie had just arrived at the university when Vera stood in front of her. Is there anything I can help you with, Vera?” Vera wasn’t bothered by Bonnie’s disrespectful tone. The way she saw it, their blood ties were as good as nonexistent. “We’ve heard about the collaboration between Bonita Research Institute and Pyralis University. The winner of the university’s research competition will win an internship at the institute. Trina is immensely gifted. She deserves to have a shot at it.” Bonnie’s delicate brows furrowed slightly as she spoke. “Are you trying to make me reinstate her status as a student here?” Before Vera could say anything, Bonnie continued, “That’s not going to happen. Back when she was expelled from the university, I said explicitly that I wouldn’t do it again, provided she didn’t cross me again. “However, she didn’t learn her lesson. She kept bugging me and got expelled again. She did this to herself.” Vera was beside herself with rage. Noticing that more onlookers were gathering around them, she cried out at the top of her lungs.
