Mr. Sterling, Mrs. Sterling is Multifaceted!-Chapter 174: Give the Defiance Society an Answer

Chapter 174: Chapter 174: Give the Defiance Society an Answer

Firstly, Seraphina Redgrave is exceptionally skilled at handling matters; secondly, if the Elite Society, representing the heirs of financial conglomerates, and The Defiance Society, representing ordinary students, were to openly compete, the financial conglomerates would certainly be displeased. They might then vent their anger on the school, resulting in a situation that would backfire instead of yielding benefits.

"Wasn’t Ronan Yates the one who falsified the seal? The school leaders better verify carefully. Don’t let these petty tricks fool you."

"Miss Seraphina is absolutely right. Even the Elite Society’s dogs have a bark that’s uglier than stray dogs outside."

Ronan Yates showed no fear, and his retorts were even harsher than those from the opposite side.

Many students couldn’t help but smile, hurriedly covering their mouths. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Caleb Crawford’s expression was grim to the extreme, wanting to explode but was held back by Selena Quinn.

She wasn’t interested in the argument; she wanted to see Seraphina Redgrave’s The Defiance Society collapse.

With Caleb Crawford’s remark, the school leaders had to look seriously at the seal above. They couldn’t determine if it was real or fake: "The authenticity of this seal still needs verification..."

Seraphina Redgrave sat in her seat, her voice cold: "Sorry, I don’t have time for you to check if my words are true, but I’ve invited a representative from the company listed above. You can verify it on the spot."

"Ah?"

The school leaders were dumbfounded.

The door of the conference room was pushed open from the outside, and a group of men and women in formal attire walked in. Many recognized the person in the lead; it was President Fuller from the Kaelor Hotel.

The group approached the conference room, directly walking up to Seraphina Redgrave, bowing before her.

"Miss Redgrave."

They greeted her in unison.

Seraphina Redgrave nodded at them without giving them a glance.

The seven prospective members of the society looked at Seraphina Redgrave, dumbfounded. Didn’t she have an ordinary family background like them? How could she demand such respect from so many business tycoons?

Selena Quinn was equally puzzled and couldn’t help but glance at Seraphina Redgrave.

How did she manage this? Could it be that Ethan Sterling has companies besides those publicly known of The Sterling Family, which he now uses to back Seraphina Redgrave?

"Principal, it’s been a while since we last met. Should I show you my ID or something to verify if I’m real?"

President Fuller joked while shaking hands with the principal.

The principal stood up and, lowering his stance, said: "President Fuller, please don’t joke with me."

Teacher Young, sitting at the conference table, stood up, wearing a hypocritical smile: "Student Shaw really gave us quite a surprise. How did the Shaw Family decide to sponsor a school club? Might there be some hidden identity of Student Shaw?"

Teacher Young’s words were intriguing. If Seraphina really had some identity, if she herself were a child of the conglomerate, what point was there in all the fuss? Those ordinary students would immediately stand against her and no longer follow her.

"Principal, you’re overthinking. Miss Shaw, although her surname is Shaw, isn’t part of the Shaw Family. I simply admire Miss Shaw’s style of doing things and wanted to help her."

President Fuller, a veteran in the business world, easily escaped the teacher’s trap.

Teacher Young had nothing to say.

With President Fuller speaking up, there was no need to doubt whether these sponsors were real. The principal courteously said: "Please have a seat."

"Alright, you continue the meeting. We’ll just observe. We eagerly anticipate the birth of a new genius club."

President Fuller and the others moved aside and sat down.

The students couldn’t help but speak up:

"Isn’t that the general manager of the social software that’s recently become popular? I’ve seen him on TV, where they said their CEO is incredibly competent, having never even set foot in the company yet still growing it to be strong and successful."

"And that person there, isn’t she the curator of the art gallery that’s been all the rage lately? She’s incredible. Any artwork she acquires immediately appreciates in value. However, she said all her decisions are made by her boss."

"It’s a bit strange. Their boss is so mysterious. How did Sylvia Shaw get in touch with them?"

This might just become Sovereign University’s biggest secret.

Ronan Yates, listening to the students’ discussions, was filled with pride and loudly said: "Principal, haven’t you signed yet?"

What are you waiting for?

Selena Quinn sat in her seat, her fingers slowly curling into a fist.

The principal, sitting at the head of the table, instinctively glanced at the Elite Society, then spoke: "Student Shaw, Your society is no different from the Elite Society. In principle, only one society with the same function should exist."

"How are they the same? The Defiance Society doesn’t need you to have a good family background, just a good brain."

Seraphina Redgrave sat below, speaking with a smile while fidgeting with wireless earbuds in her hand.

"If there are shortcomings in the admission criteria, we can have the Elite Society amend them. There’s no need to set up two identical ones." Teacher Young, sitting beside, spoke with a stern face.

The principal looked at the sponsors next to him, smiling warmly: "Why don’t we first have the school and Elite Society amend the membership requirements? If it can’t be changed, then decide to establish The Defiance Society, how does that sound?"

"I don’t understand the principal’s intention here."

Seraphina Redgrave placed her wireless earbuds on the small table attached to her chair, smiling sarcastically.

"How dare you speak to the principal like that? What do you mean by ’without significance’?"

Teacher Young huffed in anger.

"If the Elite Society could change the rules, I wouldn’t have had to go to the extent of establishing The Defiance Society. Now, to negotiate those rules, it would take a semester of discussion without reaching anywhere. Then to discuss establishing The Defiance Society, another semester."

Seraphina Redgrave sat in her seat, coldly smiling at the principal and deans: "Do you honestly believe that a student’s time at university is not time?"

Teacher Young, seeing she wasn’t daunted at all, angrily slapped the table: "What’s with your arrogance?"

Seraphina Redgrave’s expression remained unchanged: "Yes, I am arrogant. If you don’t give The Defiance Society an explanation today, I will see this arrogance through!"

She couldn’t wait any longer.

"How insolent!"

Teacher Young trembled with anger, "How can such a student manage a society, kick her out of here immediately!"

The principal was about to agree when Seraphina Redgrave coldly laughed: "After I leave today, how the public opinion will shift is out of your control."

"What do you mean by that?!"

Teacher Young exclaimed, his face trembling with rage.

Seraphina Redgrave stood up, walked over to Teacher Young, and slammed the table hard.

"Bang!"

The unexpected move startled Teacher Young almost out of his seat.

Seraphina Redgrave coldly looked at Teacher Young: "Since you refuse to go by the book, then I won’t adhere to rules either."

Teacher Young, out of breath with anger, waved his finger at Seraphina Redgrave, trembling: "Look at this! How can Sovereign College produce a student of such low quality? The Defiance Society absolutely cannot be established!"

"Fine, then I will relay your words verbatim to the thirty thousand students of Sovereign University after I leave. Let it be known today that Sovereign College intends to abolish The Defiance Society without reason, conveying to everyone that Sovereign College offers no real standing for ordinary students!"

Seraphina Redgrave’s tone softened: "What do you think will be the students’ reactions when I speak?"

"What do you intend to do?"

Teacher Young asked angrily.

"Nothing, just tell students the truth."

"You!"

Teacher Young glared at Seraphina Redgrave, at a loss for words.
