NovelOnlineChapter 965 Meeting with Ultan A phone call from Marshall woke Catherine. "Catherine, cto the university. Ultan has something to talk about with you." Hearing Marshall's voice, Catherine slowly cto her senses. "Professor Hartley? What's going on? Why do you call?" Her voice was less distant and more attractive.
Marshall knew she was sleeping without thinking. He was flooded with resentment at having to work overnight. "Hurry up. I won't cover you up if you're late." He hung up resentfully.
Catherine leisurely got up. How naive was she to think she could have a vacation? They wanted her back just one day after they threw her out. She dressed up and headed out for school.

Catherine ignored all the gazes and swiped her badge, trying to enter the building. But the machine alarmed. " Trespassing! Please step back." This only caused more attention to her. People stopped and observed her closely, whispering to each other. Swere jealous of her talent and uniqueness for a long time. Now, they were more than happy to see her down and out.
One of them was even bold enough to mock Catherine. "Miss Swann, you had been forbidden to enter the lab building by Mr. Farrell yesterday, remember? Many critical projects are going on in this building other than yours. We can't afford to let you leak everything, can we? So, why don't you walk away and save us from worrying?" Her sarcastic tone was more terrifying than cursing or yelling. People around her couldn't help but laugh.
Catherine stood beside the machine expressionlessly, ignoring what was happening around her. A few minutes later, Marshall rushed to her after hearing what happened. He swiped Catherine's badge on the machine without saying anything. The machine alarmed again. "What the hell is going on?" But now was not the tto talk about this. He would report to Ultan after Ultan talked with Catherine. He looked back at Catherine. "Cwith me." Seeing Marshall taking Catherine into the building, the student who mocked Catherine was unpleasant. "Professor Hartley, you are a widely respected professor. But Catherine had been forbidden to enter this building by Mr. Farell himself, and even her badge is on the block list. Are you going to disobey Mr. Farell publicly?" The bystanders secretly thumbed up at this student for confronting Marshall. They all agreed with her. Marshall had been a man of free will for years. He didn't bother to explain. He looked at that student and sneered." You know, you can always report me." Well, he had her there. It was simple but effective. The student was lost for words. As mad as she was, she was no match for a professor.
Marshall dragged Catherine toward the door, but Catherine had no intention of going in. Marshall turned around and looked at her in confusion, eye- questioning her.
Catherine walked away and sat down with her arms crossed, coldly saying, "Why doesn't Ultan ctohimself? He's the one that wants to talk." A vertical line appeared between Marshall's two brows. What was that supposed to mean? A lot of people heard and sniffed at what Catherine said. They thought she was bluffing, acting like a big shot, and asking Ultan to chere in person. She didn't receive such treatment in her prime, let alone now.
Marshall looked at her for a while and left alone. He knew Catherine had made up her mind. To the bystanders, it was like Marshall totally ignored Catherine.
The student who mocked Catherine before spoke up again. "Someone really should know when to stop. The only person who pities her is now pissed off. What can she do? I feel so sorry for her.

Catherine slowly looked up at her, measuring her with the eye. White e White shirt, black pants, prdinary face. As a researcher in the lab, that was okay.

"What's so funny? Am I wrong?" she asked.
Catherine's eyes were so clean and clear, like a mirror that could reflect all the ugliness in the world. Her voice was distant. "You go into the lab after three attempts, right? As a person who ranks the last every year, I think you have better things to do with your tthan teasinghere. No wonder your experiment has no result after three years. Maybe spend more tin the lab?"
That student clearly didn't see it coming. She fixed her eyes on Catherine furiously, lost for words." You..." Try as she might she argue with the facts. So, she couldn't stamped her foot and said, "We'll see. You are going to sit here forever." She turned around and was about to leave when she saw Ultan coming this way. She greeted him, but he passed her without even looking. Ultan stopped at where Catherine was. And everyone dropped their jaws. Catherine was not bluffing. Ultan was here to invite her in person.
