"Is that Dr. C, the one with the amazing medical skills?" "Yep, that's her!" "Oh my gosh, Tracy is the pride of Yorhine University!" "Of course! Didn't you see Mr. Lambert greet her?"

Everyone looked at Tracy with admiration and envy. She arrived with James, walking proudly, confidently, and with an air of superiority that set her apart. When they stopped, Tracy scanned Celine with obvious disdain before turning to Adam. "Mr. Alvarez, Celine stopped studying at sixteen, and I hear she even sleeps through your lectures. What makes her think she's qualified to attend Yorhine University?"

Melody, seemingly finding an ally, nodded enthusiastically. "Exactly!"

Adam's expression remained composed. He glanced at Celine. "She will study seriously here."

Melody was about to speak further. She knew Adam had personally arranged Celine's admission to Yorhine University and had asked James to make an exception for her. He'd never asked James for anything before—Celine was the only one. What made her so special?

But James interrupted. "Alright, everyone, stop arguing. I believe Celine will take her studies seriously from now on." He was letting Adam maintain his pride.

Melody fell silent.

James announced excitedly, "Let me tell you all some big news! Dr. C is coming!"

"Dr. C is coming?"

Adam's expression shifted slightly. He had missed Dr. C twice before. Was she finally coming to Yorhine University this time?

Melody, a huge fan of Dr. C, asked eagerly, "Mr. Lambert, is this for real?"

Tracy smiled. "Of course. Dr. C is coming to give a lecture at Yorhine University. We'll all get to see the legend for ourselves."

Dr. C had always been a mysterious figure, absent for three years.

Melody asked, "Mr. Lambert, are you Dr. C's student?"

James grew nostalgic. "When a rare plague broke out in the Middle East, the World Health Organization sent me to work on a vaccine. There was a medical equation that had been troubling me for a long time. No matter what I tried, I couldn't solve it. One day, frustrated, I went for a walk. When I returned, the equation on my desk was solved. It was Dr. C who had done it. I didn't know she was still around. I searched for her, but she had already left. However, I contacted her staff and got her WhatsApp number. I managed to add her, and now I'm fortunate enough to be her student."

He shared how he became connected to Dr. C. Everyone listened intently. Then Melody suddenly asked, "Tracy, since Mr. Lambert is Dr. C's student and you're his student, what's your relationship with Dr. C?"

Tracy was about to speak when a clear, melodic voice interrupted, "She's Dr. C's grandstudent."

Tracy froze, looking up at Celine. Celine, who had remained silent until now, stood gracefully, her serene demeanor undisturbed. Her clear eyes glinted with amusement as she looked at Tracy. "You and Dr. C? When she's here, you should bow and call her 'Grand Mentor.'"

Tracy was dumbfounded. The atmosphere became awkward and tense. James cleared his throat and turned to Celine. "Celine, about Elijah, it's not your fault. I'll have someone handle it."

Celine's eyes locked with James's, and she gave a gentle nod. "Yes, James. I trust you to take care of it."
