บททั้งหมดของ SHHH... PROFESSOR : บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

Juliet walked into Adrian’s office the next morning with her heart in her throat. Mia’s words from yesterday still echoed in her head. She closed the door behind her and locked it.Adrian was already at his desk. He looked up when she entered. “Come here.”She walked over and he pulled her onto his lap. He held her close for a long moment. “We’ll get through this. Together.”Juliet rested her head on his shoulder. “Mia knows part of the truth now. She’s scared for me. She’s been getting threats too.”Adrian’s arms tightened around her. “I hate that you’re both in danger because of me. We need to find who is behind this.”A small package sat on his desk. Plain brown envelope. No return address. Adrian opened it carefully. Inside was a USB drive and a folded note.He plugged the drive into his laptop. The screen filled with files. Old emails from his previous university. Photos of him with a former student. And new photos of Juliet dancing as Luna on stage.Adrian’s face went pale. “Thi

Juliet sat in the hard plastic chair beside her mother’s hospital bed. The machines beeped steadily. Her mother’s face looked thinner than last week. The nurse had just left after explaining the new treatment plan.“The doctor wants to start the stronger medication tomorrow,” the nurse had said. “But the cost is higher. We need payment approval by morning or we can’t move forward.”Juliet held her mother’s hand. It felt cold. “I’ll take care of it, Mom. Don’t worry.”Her mother opened her eyes slowly. “You look tired, sweetheart. You’re doing too much. School… and now this.”“I’m fine,” Juliet said. Her voice cracked a little. “Just rest. I’ll handle the bills.”Her mother squeezed her fingers weakly. “I hate that you’re carrying all of this alone.”Juliet stayed until the nurses asked visitors to leave. Visiting hours were over. She walked out into the quiet hallway with her head down. The new bill number kept spinning in her mind. Four thousand dollars. She didn’t have it. The club

Juliet left Adrian’s office with the latest note still burned into her mind. The words “She looks just like the last one” kept repeating. She walked to her next class trying to look normal, but her body still felt the echo of how hard he had taken her over the desk.She sat in the lecture hall and opened her notebook. Her phone vibrated under the desk a few minutes later.It was a text from Adrian.A photo filled the screen. His hard cock, thick and ready. Under it one line:“Thinking of how tight you felt last night.”Juliet’s thighs clenched hard under the desk. Heat rushed through her body. She pressed her legs together and tried to focus on the professor at the front of the room. It didn’t work. All she could think about was how Adrian had bent her over and claimed her while they talked about the threats.She typed back with shaking fingers.“You’re going to get us both expelled.”His reply came fast.“Worth it. Be ready for me later.”Juliet put her phone face-down and forced her

Juliet sat on the hotel bed holding the old photo. The girl in the picture looked so much like her that it made her stomach turn. Adrian sat beside her, his face still pale.“Why does she look like me?” Juliet asked again. Her voice was quiet.Adrian took the photo from her hands and set it down. “Someone is choosing girls who look like Sophia on purpose. They’re using the resemblance to drag up my past and destroy me again. And now they’re using you.”Juliet leaned against him. “I’m scared, Adrian. Everything feels like it’s closing in.”He kissed the top of her head. “I know. But we’re going to fight this. Together.”They stayed at the hotel a little longer before deciding to go back to campus. Adrian needed to check his office for any new notes or threats. Juliet went with him. The hallway was quiet when they arrived. He unlocked the door and they stepped inside.Adrian turned on the desk lamp. Juliet walked around the room slowly, looking for anything that felt wrong. She stopped

Adrian’s phone rang early the next morning. He answered it while Juliet was still half-asleep beside him in his apartment.“Professor Knight,” Dean Hargrove’s voice came through cold and sharp. “My office. One hour.”Adrian hung up and looked at Juliet. “The dean wants to see me. Alone this time.”Juliet sat up fast. “What do you think it is?”“Nothing good,” he said. He kissed her forehead. “Stay here. I’ll come back as soon as I can.”An hour later Adrian sat across from Dean Hargrove. The dean slid a folder across the desk.“I have enough to fire you today,” the dean said. “Photos. Witness statements. The video tip. I’m giving you a choice. Resign within forty-eight hours and leave quietly. Or I make everything public and terminate you myself. Your career will be finished either way.”Adrian stayed silent for a long moment. “And Miss Sinclair?”“She will be investigated separately. If I find she was willing, she will be expelled. If I find you pressured her, there will be more seri
