Stella Grace picked up the biology book and waved it in front of him. “If that’s who you want to be, you have to study hard. That’s the only way you could get into a good school. What do you think?”
Bobby’s eyes dimmed. “Is this your way of getting me to study?”
“Well, putting it in another way, I am trying to help you find the right and legal path to your dreams. You wouldn’t want to die without accomplishing anything in your life, do you?” Stella said with a smile.
Bobby Lameer was confused. “Do you really think I could get there by studying hard?”
Stella put the biology book down. “Don’t you have any faith in yourself? Everything is possible if you work hard. Also, I happen to know a forensic pathologist. I could arrange a private lesson for you.”
“Really? When? I can’t wait!” Bobby said joyfully.
Stella lay out her conditions. “That depends on your performance. I will apply for you to go back to school. You will have the monthly examinations. I want you to be in the top ten in all the examinations. If the teacher thinks highly of you, then I’ll take you there.”
Bobby was surprised. “You’ll let me out?”
“Why not? If my judgment were correct, you were just curious and seeking for knowledge, but your method of exploration was wrong. You didn’t have a good teacher to guide you so you went off track. Fortunately, it still isn’t too late. It would be a pity if you missed out on life by going to jail.” Stella stared Bobby intently.
“Do you really think so?” Bobby scrutinized Stella’s face.
“Don’t you think that you’re a genius?” Stella asked.
“I do. I just couldn’t communicate with those idiots. I was trying to do something that they were all afraid to do. In order to confirm my hypothesis, I raped a girl. They thought she was the campus belle and had high standards for men. However, after I forced myself on her, she ended up asking my father for one million dollars. B*tch,” Bobby said disdainfully.
“How many people were you able to showcase your abilities to? Weren’t they just a bunch of uneducated people? What’s the point? You should study hard and prove yourself to the world and dominate it with your power! Don’t you want that?” Stella said.
“Yes, you’re right. I’m going to study hard now,” Bobby said excitedly.
“I believe you. I’ll tell your mother that you’re going back to school tomorrow. I’ll pick you up after school and teach you at night. We’ll get you to the top ten in the monthly examinations. I’ll take you to see a real autopsy. I’m sure your friends have never seen one. You’ll be far ahead of them.”
“Hahaha, thank you. You are my teacher. I will not forget you when I succeed.” Bobby’s whole body was shaking with excitement.
“You should do something to pass the time, I have to talk to your mother.” Stella got up and walked out the door.
“Teacher Grace, has Bobby eaten yet?” Ryan’s wife asked worriedly.
Stella pushed the door open and said to Bobby. “You should eat. You need the energy to study. Your body is a machine that needs fuel.”
“Okay,” Bobby replied obediently.
Ryan’s wife looked at Stella in surprise. That was amazing!
No one could control him before, yet he listened to this Doctor Grace after spending just a few minutes with her.
Ryan’s wife turned the housekeeper. “Send it to the Young Master.”
“Mrs. Lameer, may I have a moment alone with you?” Stella asked.
“Okay, let’s go to my room.” Ryan’s wife had a whole new impression of Stella and was very enthusiastic.
Stella followed her to the room and got straight to the point. “I hope that Bobby could go to school tomorrow. I will pick him up every day and tutor him at night.”
“No!” Ryan’s wife panicked. “Bobby’s a bit irritable. He might hurt his classmates at school.”
“If even his own mother doesn’t believe in him, why would he try to fit into society?” Stella replied, her voice cold and sharp.
Bobby’s mother immediately felt ashamed. “Is it really alright for him to go to school?”
“It should be fine. Let’s send him to school as usual tomorrow,” Stella promised.
“Okay then. He’s been keeping up this hunger strike whenever he was locked up in the house. I feel like I’m losing control of him,” Ryan’s wife sighed.
Stella nodded and returned to Bobby’s room.
Bobby was reading and reciting a book.
Stella sat in front of him. “Think about it. What will happen when you go to school tomorrow?”
“The students will certainly be very afraid of me and the headmaster and teachers will not dare cross me. They will still talk behind my back, and maybe someone will pick a fight with me?” Bobby said indifferently.
“What do you think?” Stella asked.
“They’re just a bunch of idiots. I used to want to prove something to these idiots, but I don’t anymore. Now I want to prove myself to the whole world and dominate it,” Bobby said suddenly.
“World domination is very lonely. Let me give you a suggestion. Be their savior. Do that and everyone will admire you, look up to you, praise you, and admire you. They will worship the ground you walk on,” Stella said with a smile, tapping the table with her fingers.
“Yes, you’re right. You’re the only one who has the ability to communicate with me. You are like a beacon in my life,” Bobby agreed.
“We still have a lot to learn before we achieve our goals. You should read. If there is anything you don’t understand, you can ask me.”
“Okay okay.”
While Bobby read, so did Stella. After all, she had forgotten a lot of high school material. She needed to be able to connect with him.
Time passed quietly.
Stella’s cell phone rang. Seeing that it was Frederick Addington, she walked out of the room to answer the call.
“I’m still half an hour away from Yale City. Are you going to pick me up?” Frederick asked.
“I’m in the student’s house now. I’ll be going there in a minute. I’ll treat you to dinner when we meet,” Stella said in a smiley tone.
Frederick paused.
Her reaction was unexpected. He expected her to be angry at him.
“Alright, let’s meet.”
Stella hung up and bid farewell to Ryan’s wife. She went to the pharmacy and bought some merbromin which she then dripped on a sanitary pad. After that, she went to the train station to meet Frederick.
He was in a light blue suit and his hair was slightly curled upwards and dyed red. He looked years younger and oozed charm.
Stella smiled but her eyes were cold.
The battle between them had just begun…
