Chapter 1014 

Whoa!Olivia gasped

Paul and Miranda turned to look behind them. Their gazes locked with Olivia and Christine’s, and an awkward silence followed

Miranda was the first to stand up. Dr. Young” 

Christine snapped out of her shock. Her lips parted as if to speak, but it took her a few seconds to find her voice. You and Paul?” 

The next second, he calmly took Miranda’s hand and said, Dr. Young, we’re in a relationship.” 

She froze momentarily, and her eyes were fixed on Paul as though she were seeing a different side of him. Then, she smiled warmly. That’s great. When did this happen?” 

We just got together not long ago,he replied

I was wondering why you’re visiting me at this hour, Christine said with a teasing look. It turns out that you have other intentions.” 

Paul coughed lightly to cover his awkwardness

Take a seat.Christine gestured. Olivia, pass him the rice pudding.” 

Olivia was still in disbelief as she tried to process the revelation. Paul, Mirandaare you telling me you two are dating?” 

Miranda nodded

So, does this mean both of you will visit Dr. Young together from now on?Olivia asked

Looks like I’ll have to ask you to make an extra dish for one more person,Miranda said.. 

That’s not an issue. Don’t even worry about that. Heck, even if you two get married and have kids, bring them overI wouldn’t mind at all,Olivia said

Everyone froze and was unsure how to respond. No one could follow that up

After Paul finished a bowl of rice pudding, Christine asked, Do you want more?” 

He shook his head. I’m good.” 

Alright. Come with me to the study.” 

A puzzled expression crossed his face

Miranda couldn’t resist her curiosity and instinctively wanted to follow them, but Olivia stopped her.Don’t go,she said

Why?” Miranda asked

Olivia glanced toward the direction the two had just gone and said softly, Don’t eavesdrop, and don’t ask any questions. Just remember thisDr. Young will always have your back, no matter what happens.”

Her words only deepened Miranda’s confusion

In the study, Christine’s smile had faded and was replaced by a serious expression. Paul, you’ve always been someone I can count on, Whether in academics of life, you handle everything with ease. I trust you and Miranda have thought this through before deciding to be together.” 

He nodded. Yes. I’m serious about her.” 

She added, Miranda’s been through a lot in her past relationship. It took her six years to see the other person’s true nature, and after that, she had to rebuild her life from scratch

Everything she’s achieved since then is because of her own determination. We all know how much she’s been through

That’s why I care about her so much. I just hope you won’t be like Hansel, who hurts her and makes her endure that pain again.” 

How many years could a woman afford to waste on the wrong person

Paul’s face turned serious. Don’t worry. I won’t.” 

“Good. Just remember what you said today.Christine s tone softened slightly. But there’s one more thing I have to remind you.” 

Go ahead,he replied

For me, you and Miranda are both my students. Seeing the two of you together makes me happy, and it’s something worth celebrating.” 

But to everyone else, you’re a professor at Bedford College, and she’s still a postgraduate student. Technically, that puts you in a teacherstudent relationship.” 

Society today is more open about who people can love, but not everything is free from scrutiny. People might believe you and Miranda are innocent, but the public’s perception could be different. As the saying goes, A lie repeated often enough becomes the truth.‘ 

In situations like this, the woman often bears the brunt of the judgment. She might face accusations of ulterior motives, while you, as a man, will likely escape scrutiny. You understand what I’m saying?” 

Once the relationship became public, it would undoubtedly cause a stir on campus

Paul was a professor, while Miranda was still a student By societal standards, their relationship was naturally out of bounds

No one would accuse him of taking advantage of his students, but many would label her as someone who seduced her professor to get what she wanted

Christine sighed. I know this is blunt, but you should understandsmart people avoid putting themselves in risky positions.

He nodded. I understand. I’ll handle it.”
