Chapter 171
Thinking of the benefits he could gain from winning Mr. Winford’s favor, Paul felt an excitement inside him that he could hardly suppress!
Elva’s excitement was no less than Paul’s. She shyly said, “Mr. Winford, these are the flowers I specially selected for you, they are different from the others…”
However, she waited and waited, her hands had already started to feel sore, but Winford showed no intention of taking the bouquet.
Gradually, Elva’s smile began to freeze.
“Mr. Winford?”
Winford coldly raised his eyes and looked at her. It was just a glance, but it made Elva break out in a cold sweat on her back!
Her sweaty palms tightly gripped the bouquet as she nervously lowered her eyes and said, “You said that if I got into Ventura University, you would fulfill one of my wishes…”
Winford leaned back but still didn’t move. The pressure around him had. dropped to a frightening level, and the shadow in his brows sent a chill to the depths of one’s heart.
In the stands, the crowd had already noticed something was wrong and began to whisper among themselves.
“What was going on? Why didn’t the big shot accept Elva’s flowers?”
“Yeah, it looked like the face was so scary…”

Feeling the gazes from the stands, Elva’s palms became sweaty, and her eyes filled with panic.
If Winford did not accept her flowers, everything she had painstakingly managed before would be over!
Paul realized too late that something was wrong, and he felt an inexplicable jolt in his heart. “Mr. Winford? You…”
Before the words were finished, they were suddenly interrupted by an unexpected situation from the other side-
At the end, after the flower offering began, Ophelia calmly walked up to Mark and handed him the flowers she was holding.
She saw Elva walk up to Winford, but she was not in a hurry at all and showed no intention of doing anything.
It was not until Mark looked at her with that disgusting gaze and tried to touch her hand while taking the flowers that Ophelia suddenly turned cold.
She narrowed her eyes and, without hesitation, threw the bouquet in her hand forcefully at Mark’s face!
There were still some untrimmed thorns left on the branch, which scratched his face, and Mark immediately cried out in pain!
“You, you-” he pointed at Ophelia in a fit of rage, completely disregarding the occasion, and shouted furiously, “You little slut, who gave you the guts?!”
The chaos instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
Noticing who the girl in front of Mark was, Winford’s face turned even uglier, and he suddenly stood up.

Paul misunderstood the situation and shouted without thinking,
“Someone, take this student away! What kind of place is this where she can cause trouble and act wildly?!”
Immediately, someone stepped forward to grab Ophelia, and she instinctively took a step back, but suddenly stumbled!
The heel of her high–heeled shoes suddenly broke! At that moment, she
had already reached the edge of the stage, and it seemed she was about to fall off into the audience!
J’Ah!”
“Ophelia-!”
There was a chorus of gasps from the stands, and Lucy and the others changed their expressions, anxiously standing up abruptly.
At the critical moment, a tall figure flashed by and scooped the girl into his arms!
-Winford!
Winford’s face was as pale as death, and his expression was more frightening than ever before.
Ophelia twisted her ankle and wrapped her arms around his neck, looking up at him pitifully in his arms. “Honey, my foot hurts,” she said.
Paul, who had just run over, seemed to have been struck by a bolt of lightning.
–Ophelia, what did she call Mr. Winford?!
What was even more terrifying was that Mr. Winford did not refute it at all!
Paul was sweating profusely, and his legs felt weak.
However, some people still did not realize the seriousness of the situation.
Mark was a newly rich person who had no contact with someone of Winford’s status, so he had no idea about his background and identity.
He wiped the bloodstains off his face and cursed as he came forward.
“Bring me that little brat! How dare she hit me? Today, I’m going to make her… Ah!!”
As soon as I got close, I was suddenly kicked away with a strong kick and crashed heavily onto the tables and chairs behind me!
Winford used almost brutal force, and Mark instantly lost half of his life, barely able to get up!
Even after committing such a brutal act, this man remained elegant, with a subtle yet compelling aura of strength.
His cold gaze glanced at Mark, and he said in a chilling voice to the group of school leaders who had caught up, especially to Paul-
“I would remember the ‘surprise‘ from your school today.”
