The once bustling cafeteria quickly returned to its usual calm, as if nothing had ever happened here.

After taking care of the situation, Catherine suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.

Throughout her life, she had done many terrible things-acts that were both ruthless and brutal.

But this feeling, this sense of pride akin to that of a heroic outlaw, was something she had never experienced before.

Once the bodyguards had dealt with those trash, Catherine immediately began searching for Robin.

Right now, he was the person she most wanted to share her joy with

The exhilarating rush in her chest was something she had never felt before.

From the day Robin slapped her in Dragon Ridge Valley, she couldn't forget him.

Normally, any man who dared to strike Catherine would have been torn apart by her family's vast

resources.

But for Robin, she couldn't bring herself to use such methods.

He had completely captivated her.

What frustrated her most was that Robin was ignoring her.

"Hmm? Where's Robin?" Catherine scanned the room for him, but there was no sign of him.

The maid stepped forward, pointing toward the restaurant's private room number 7. She said. "Robin went to Room 7

"How dare you! Do you think you can call his name, you lowly servant?" Catherine snapped coldly.

The maid immediately dropped to her knees and pleaded. "I'm sorry, Ms. Catherine! I made a mistake!"

"Hmph!" Catherine turned sharply and headed for Room 7.

Robin had just told Marge and Marrisa that everything was under control inside the private room.

The university's management was aware of everything. The students involved had already admitted their mistakes.

The matter was over, so Marge had no reason to worry.

As they spoke, Nathaniel Joss, the university's logistics director, accompanied by Bert Hale, the cafeteria manager, arrived to speak with Marge. "Good afternoon, Mrs. Leif, Nathaniel said, greeting her. "I'm Nathaniel Joss, the logistics director, and this is Bert Hale, the cafeteria manager"

Nathaniel sneaked a glance at Marrisa and Robin, wiping the sweat from his brow before continuing. Leif, I've just learned about the issue regarding your unpaid wages during your probation period. I've severely reprimanded Bert for it. "He took it upon himself to dock three months of your salary. I've given him a stern warning!

"If anything like this happens again, you can always come to my office for assistance."

Marge stood stunned for a moment. "Mr. Joss, what does this mean?"

"For exceptional students like Joanna, we feel it is our duty and responsibility to help ease their worries.

"Therefore, based on your family's circumstances, the university has decided to assign you to a position in the cafeteria with a salary of 8,000 dollars per month. You can even receive your pay today."

Marge was taken aback. She asked, "I've only been working here for four days. How can I already receive my salary?"

Nathaniel adjusted his glasses and smiled. "It's fine. You can receive an advance. Considering your family's situation, the university has decided to offer you the salary upfront.

With that, he placed 8,000 dollars in cash on the table.

"This is your salary for the month," he continued.

"If you need more help, feel free to come to me. The university is willing to provide you with a year's worth of wages in advance if needed.

Marge was shocked and quickly replied, "Mr. Joss, I don't need a whole year's salary. I can't accept such special treatment. Just receiving this money is more than enough for me. "Is my salary too high?" she worriedly asked.

Nathaniel quickly reassured her, "No, Mrs. Leif. This amount also includes assistance from the university.

"After hearing about your situation, the alumni association immediately stepped in to help. They wanted to contribute what they could. This is their goodwill.

"The alumni association is aware that you don't have a place to live right now. So, they've arranged a place

for you.

They've rented a two-bedroom apartment for you in a building next to the university. You won't have to pay anything Marge's eyes filled with tears as she listened to Nathaniel's words. Overcome with emotion, she dropped to her knees. Nathaniel, trembling all over in fear, quickly grabbed her by the shoulders.

"Mrs. Leif, please! You can't do that! I don't deserve this

But Marge remained on the ground. She said, "Thank you so much for the university's kindness. My daughter and I are deeply grateful"

Nathaniel and Bert both dropped to their knees.

"Please, get up! There's no need for this. We're all part of the same family. Since your daughter is studying at our university, we have a responsibility to support her." Nathaniel gently helped her up.

"Mom, what's going on?" Joartna entered the room and saw the group of university officials present. She became nervous.

Upon seeing Joanna, Nathaniel exclaimed with agitation. "Joanna, your mother is truly remarkable!

"Despite her frailty and health struggles over the years, she's raised you to be someone we all respect. Her strength deeply touches all of us.

"Upon learning of your family's situation, the alumni association decided to offer their support.

"And there's

"The foreign company supporting us has decided to award you with one million dollars.

"The CEO specifically asked us to ensure that our excellent students have no worries, so you can focus entirely on your research. This is the university's wish and a wish for society as a whole." Nathaniel handed over a card and said, "The university's management entrusted this to me. This money is rightfully yours!"

Joanna was dumbfounded. "Mr. Joss, why would I receive so much money?"

"Well, this company is a global giant, Nathaniel explained.

"For many years, they've quietly supported education, providing financial assistance to talented students worldwide.

"By receiving this reward, we hope you can improve your family's situation and focus on your studies.

"Any difficulties you face, feel free to reach out to the university. We will help you resolve them.

"If a university cannot provide its outstanding students with peace of mind, it is failing them. It is disgraceful!

"Our university will never allow our hard-working students to suffer in poverty!

"Go on and continue your hard work!

Joanna stood frozen, holding the card and the award certificate, tears streaming down her face. "Mr. Joss, is this really happening?"
