2026-05-20 07:00:49Why was he suddenly barraging me with so many inquiries tonight? The timing felt completely improper. It was out of the question for me to be upfront about the emotional reasons behind my behavior all this time. If I confessed to it, it would only make me look as though I were jealous and had been harboring expectations for him for a long time.
"B-because I want to graduate as soon as possible," I answered at last, selecting the safest phrase to protect my pride.

My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 129: CONFIRMATION OF LOVE
"...purely platonic," I finally answered.The reporters’ fingers flew across their keyboards, documenting my statement. They whispered among themselves every now and then.I swallowed hard and gripped the microphone stand tightly before continuing. "Roy and I have been close friends for a long time. So... I was simply helping him out by adding some excitement to the campus festival."A reporter raised their hand to ask a question. I nodded, and the reporter lifted the mic to speak."Roy said he has been in love with you for three years. Does that mean Roy’s love is unrequited?"My body went limp, and sweat poured down my forehead. I was at a total loss for how to answer. Like it or not, this news would inevitably reach Roy.Even though I didn't love him, I didn't want to hurt his feelings. Roy would surely be humiliated, especially since I had already accepted his confession in front of everyone, only to deny it now.But heavy-hearted as I was, I had to do this. For the sake of restor
My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 128: AMBUSH AT THE PRESS CONFERENCE
I smirked, staring at Mia with a cold, cynical expression. "And what if I don't?"Mia straightened her posture, her fists clenched tightly at her sides. She took a ragged breath, her face turning beet red. "Are you challenging me?!"I gripped the side of my skirt, staring back at her defiantly, even though my heart was pounding with fear. "Yeah, so what? Do you think I'm scared of your threats?"Mia looked like she was about to explode, her eyes blazing. She tapped the video screen and held her phone high. "Just you wait. Everyone in this office is going to find out how pathetic you really are!""Oh, really?" Jefri suddenly appeared behind Mia, snatching the phone from her hand.Mia jumped, spinning around to try and grab it back. "Give that back!"Jefri just pushed Mia’s forehead with his index finger. She stumbled backward, frantically reaching for the phone as she lost her balance."You?!" Mia shrieked, pointing at Jefri with wide, furious eyes, showing absolutely no fear.Jefri ma
My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 127: CAUGHT RED-HANDED
"Mrs. Niken?!" I gasped, my voice trembling.Niken, who had been frozen in place, immediately turned around. "My apologies. I didn't see anything."Jefri and I exchanged a quick look, and I started to sit up to get off his lap. Instead, Jefri grabbed the back of my neck and kissed my lips again."Ugh, Jefri!" I protested, giving his arm a light slap.He just smiled, and we both stood up to sit on the sofa."Niken," Jefri called out in a flat voice.Niken turned back around. She glanced at me briefly before fixing her gaze on Jefri with her usual stoic expression. "My apologies, sir. If you'd like to continue, I can come back later.""N-no!" I shouted, my eyes bulging as I waved both hands frantically.The room fell silent. Niken looked at me with a raised eyebrow. I turned to Jefri, but he just stared back at me with a face that was flat and leaning toward cold.I gave a dry, awkward laugh, feeling embarrassed for myself. "S-sorry. Maybe... I should step out."I started to get up, but
My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 126: ROMANTIC AND WARM
I tried to push him away, desperate to stop the kiss. "Jefri... please, not here. It’s my first day of work."Jefri didn't budge. He ignored my plea entirely, kissing me even more brutally—with an intense, possessive hunger. I could feel his ragged breathing as he trailed kisses down my neck, then back up to my ear."I'm sorry!" I blurted out, squeezing my eyes shut. "I admit I was wrong. Please, forgive me..."Suddenly, everything stopped. The ticklish sensation against my neck vanished. Did... did my plea actually work? I wondered.I opened my eyes slowly. Sure enough, Jefri had pulled away. He was watching me with a smug, satisfied smirk."I won't be so forgiving if you do it again," he threatened.The threat didn't seem entirely serious; there was still a faint trace of a smile on his lips. Even so, I knew Jefri was more than capable of following through if my jealousy-inducing behavior pushed him over the edge.I gave a tentative nod, my eyes still half-closed.Jefri reached for
My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 125: SPARKS OF JEALOUSY
They all fell silent and bowed their heads, no one daring to speak. He's so impressive, I thought to myself, admiring him.Even though Jefri’s expression was terrifying, I loved the way he led his subordinates. Firm and indisputable.Jefri sat back, playing with a pen in his hand. "Erika is my student. And my reason for appointing her as my assistant... is none other than to provide her with easier access to her studies."I spontaneously looked at him, biting my lower lip. I had been completely wrong about him all this time. I thought he’d made me his assistant just because he was possessive. It turns out he truly cared about my thesis.I felt my heart pounding against my chest. I think... my feelings for him were growing even deeper."Raise your hand if you still wish to oppose me." His gaze swept across everyone in the room.The atmosphere suddenly turned suffocating. I could see beads of sweat on the employees' foreheads, even though the room was freezing. Everyone remained silent
My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 124: TENSION IN THE BOARDROOM
"N-no need, Raka," I replied, my voice laced with panic.I caught a glimpse of Jefri. He was still staring at Raka, his brows knitted tightly together."Why not?" Raka’s forehead creased, his eyes narrowing as he looked at me with suspicion. "Are you really seeing that DJ?"I waved both hands quickly. "N-no, I'm not."My chest tightened. I massaged my throbbing temple. Why on earth would Raka bring up Roy in front of Jefri? I thought."Why do you keep bothering Erika, Raka?!" Mia snapped. She crossed her arms, glaring at me. "You’d be better off finding a boyfriend for me instead."Raka just offered a faint smile, and I chose to stay silent—I didn't have the energy to deal with Mia. For a moment, I felt like this office meeting had turned into a family dinner. Jefri clearly wasn't amused."Is this a meeting to find you a date?!" Jefri suddenly interjected, his tone ice-cold.It was exactly as I feared. The lion had bared its fangs. Everyone went dead silent; the room was so quiet you
My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 73: ERIKA’S MALICIOUS SCHEME
The muscular architecture of my brow warped into an instantaneous knot of severe friction, my eyelids narrowing to train a razor-sharp, diagnostic glare directly onto Mama’s features. "Mama... what specific cognitive malfunction dictates that your network is suddenly validating and reinforc
My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 66: A TALE FROM THE PAST
"Erika!" Roy’s distinctive vocal register suddenly fractured the heavy silence directly behind my spine.I executed an immediate, automatic pivot of my torso. "Roy. What precise strategic calculation brought you down this service corridor?""The tim
My Ruthless Professor CHAPTER 65: THE BASTARD
Instantly, I deployed my palm to aggressively clamp down over the perimeter of my lips. It was a desperate defense mechanism to ensure Mr. Jefri refrained from executing the precise choreography that had just hijacked my imagination. God forbid he should possess the rare audacity to systematicall

Dita systematically mirrored my movements, extracting her lower limbs from the aquatic depths to anchor herself in a cross-legged posture directly opposite my frame. "But you must throw me an ironclad guarantee that you will not lose your composure, understood?"I aligned my
