Chapter 57 Max Plagiarized
Mr. Lou suddenly became interested as he asked, “What’s your grandfather’s name?”
“Hunter James.”
Hearing that name, Mr. Lou instantly felt a bolt from the blue. Gradually, his eyes turned moist. “I can’t believe you are Hunter’s granddaughter. Your grandfather and I were close friends! But…”
He couldn’t help pulling Elspeth’s hands and sighing. “I can’t believe you are Azure Corporation’s president. You are so successful at such a young age. I believe Hunter will be able to rest in peace in the afterworld.”
“Mr. Lou, about the collaboration…” Elspeth asked tentatively, but before she could finish her sentence, Mr. Lou interrupted her, “There’s no need to mention this cooperation anymore. Even if there are future projects in store, I would continue cooperating with Azure Corporation!”
After hearing that, his assistant widened his eyes. “Mr. Lou, you can’t say that… Some of our cooperation depends on the ability of the partner!”
Mr. Lou was infuriated as he glared at his assistant. “What? Do you think Elspeth is not capable enough, or are you questioning an old man’s vision?”
The assistant lowered his head in fright and stopped talking.
Elspeth smiled after hearing that. “Thank you, Mr. Lou.”
“Don’t worry about it. Feel free to visit Lou Residence when you have time. You really did inherit your grandpa’s temperament…”
Mr. Lou then chatted with Elspeth for a long time until the sky turned dark. Only then did he reluctantly let her go.

Elspeth originally thought that it would take a long time to solve the matter, but eventually, she successfully completed the task after a meeting. Now that Azure Corporation’s crisis was resolved and they even gained a strong and solid supporter, Elspeth suddenly felt relieved. Right now, she should return to Winthrop Group to resume work, but when she thought of what Callum said to her that day, she no longer wanted to return to the company.
Callum should have gotten back together with his first love, and the two must be in a fiery session right now. If she were to go home, it wouldn’t seem appropriate, and she would only be a buzzkill.
Just as she was contemplating whether to go home, a phone call came. “Elsie, it’s Max. Where have you been these few days? Why haven’t you come back?”
Elspeth was taken aback by his question and was about to explain when Callum’s familiar voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
“Max, why are you not studying yet? You have an exam the day after tomorrow. Don’t you know that?”
Max replied pitifully, “I know, I know. I’m asking Elsie for help, Callum. One of her majors was marketing. She can definitely help me out with revision.”
“Look at you cramming everything at the last minute and refusing to study early on. You deserve to fail.”
Though Callum’s words were harsh, he was speaking the truth.
Shrugging, Max continued asking on the phone, “When will you be back, Elsie? I can’t do this anymore. I’ve been busy playing games this whole semester. I don’t even know what they taught in school.”
When Elspeth heard Callum’s voice, she was ready to hang up the phone, but hearing Max’s pitiful cry, she couldn’t bear to reject him. “Okay. I’ll be back by tomorrow morning.”

A smile immediately bloomed on Max’s face. “Got it. Thank you, Elsie!”
Elspeth hummed and hung up the phone.
The next day, Elspeth returned to Winthrop Residence as promised. At that time, Max hadn’t woken up yet. On the other hand, Callum was having breakfast in the dining room by himself.
“Oh? I thought you had forgotten where home is.” While having breakfast leisurely, he didn’t forget to make sarcastic remarks. His words triggered the waves that had calmed down in Elspeth’s heart.
“I think that’s none of your business, Mr. Winthrop. You should worry about your own affairs.”
Elspeth was naturally unwilling to lag behind, so she spat words that sounded even more ruthless.
Pulling a piece of tissue, Callum wiped his lips and uttered, “I’m taking care of you because my father ordered me to. I don’t want to nag at you all day long either.”
“If that is so, then don’t worry about me.” Elspeth was irritated upon hearing that.
This time, Max rubbed his eyes and came out of the room. Seeing the strange and tense atmosphere between the two adults, he was a little puzzled. “What’s the matter with you two? You both look like enemies.”
“It’s nothing. Max, come and have breakfast already. I’ll come to your room to help you with the revision later.”
Nodding his head, Max quickly finished breakfast and returned to his room.
“Elsie, I haven’t learned much of this in the past six months. Do you think I can study everything at once?” Sitting in the bedroom, Max supported his head and bit the nib of his pen, feeling depressed.
“Of course not.” Elspeth pointed out the facts.
Max let out a cry, and then came back to his senses. “Then what should I do? I won’t fail the exam, will I?”
Elspeth supported her forehead and sighed. “Of course, you won’t fail the exam. As long as I’m here, you won’t fail the exam, but you probably won’t be able to score full marks.”
Full marks? He would be thankful as long as he passed his subjects.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHearing that he wouldn’t fail, Max grinned. “Alright, Elsie. Let’s start then.”
Elspeth opened the book and began to highlight the key points for him.
She knew almost the whole book by heart. When highlighting the key points, she was quick as if she was the one who drafted the exam papers.
“Elsie, this…”
Max was surprised because lecturers in school would usually highlight the whole paragraph, but Elspeth merely highlighted a single sentence after flipping so many pages. Moreover, she was done highlighting the points in a whole thick textbook within ten minutes.
“Believe me. These are the common questions that will be out on the test. If you take time to study them, it should not be a problem for you to score above 80 on the test.”
Max nodded, only half-grasping what she said. “Thanks, Elsie. I got it.”
“As for the judgment questions, if you see those that you’re uncertain of, just leave them as false. This is just the final exams for the semester, so generally speaking, I doubt there’ll be questions that are too difficult.”
All these were obtained from her exam experiences, which were useful tips.
“Elsie, do you usually study last minute before an exam?” Max could no longer hold back his curious inquiry.
Rolling her eyes, Elspeth grabbed a book, rolled it, and knocked him in the head. “Of course not! If I were like you, I wouldn’t have been able to rank in the top 20, not to mention being top 1.”
“Okay. I’ll focus on my studies starting next semester and will never study last minute again.”
Elspeth nodded in satisfaction. “Great.”
The next day, Max sat for his exams. Meanwhile, Elspeth made medicine for Sonny in her room. She took a bottle of pink powder and poured it into the water to dissolve it, then took out the powder made from hundred-year-old Ganoderma and poured it in too. She then collected the combined liquid in a bottle and sealed it with a wooden stopper.
Elspeth knew that the old man had trouble remembering things, so she specially put a seal on the bottle. Once that was done, she was about to go downstairs when she heard someone exclaim all of a sudden. It was Blake who exclaimed, and when Elspeth went down to enquire about the situation, he replied with a frown, “Max was reported for plagiarism. He’s in the principal’s office right now. The school informed us that they will punish him severely. They are going to expel him!”
