After My Death, I Became A Genius의 모든 챕터: 챕터 141 - 챕터 150

SAVANNA (VERONICA)When George Simon finally opened his eyes, it was evident that his headache had eased.The strain that had been etched across his face earlier had vanished.Several acupuncture needles still stuck out from his scalp, but the tension around his eyes had relaxed. Even his breathing sounded different.It was steadier and no longer carrying that faint edge of pain I had noticed before.Slowly, he pushed himself upright. Then his gaze found its way to me. He looked as though he had witnessed some miracle."This is incredible," he said, shaking his head. "Whenever my headaches get bad, I usually go to Tan Jiang to treat me. But the relief never comes this quickly."I pulled a cup closer and poured myself some water."It runs in the family." I said. "And considering your age, a complete cure is unlikely. But reducing the symptoms and cutting down the frequency of attacks shouldn't be difficult."As

SAVANNA (VERONICA)The principal's office..."Veronica, I know your grades have earned you a lot of favor with Dr. Simon," the department head said, holding my acupuncture kit with a look of obvious disapproval."But this situation is entirely your fault. How can you come in here, cause a scene in front of Mr. Simon, and expect him to automatically take your side?"Before I could respond, Audrey jumped in."Mr. Simon, she had alcohol in the dorm and kept dangerous items in her room. What if she gets drunk? Do you realize how dangerous that could be?"The eagerness in her voice was almost impressive.She clearly wanted this blown as far out of proportion as possible. Ideally, the entire university would hear that I was some reckless drunk who kept weapons in her dorm room.At this rate, she had probably convinced herself that I spent my weekends stumbling around campus stabbing random people with acupuncture needles.

THIRD POV...Veronica had actually called Victor here. Since when had the two of them become close enough for that?‘Is that why she was not letting me talk?' He thought, finally realizing.Veronica took a sip of coffee before finally answering Victor."You were the one who gave me the needles, and you bought the suitcase," she said matter-of-factly. "Of course I'd call you."What she didn't say was that if there was no reason, she would have still called him. Perhaps she was becoming a bit selfish, but she just wanted to see him.On the other hand, Audrey was in shock and disbelief.Everyone knew exactly who Victor Abraham was.In the business world, the Abrahams family was dominant, not only in Kingsport but across the entire globe.Companies spent years trying to earn their favor and lived in fear of getting on their bad side.The Imperial Corporation alone had enough influence to make or break

SAVANNA (VERONICA)As soon as his words fell, I considered it a deal.The truth was I needed help, and as much as I wanted to separate him from me, I couldn't. This was because there are some powers he can use that would cause me trouble.Selfish enough, I just saved myself from some troubles."Remember, you said it." I smiled at him.The moment I smiled, something flickered across Victor's eyes, as though he suddenly felt he had been tricked.Good, he was smart enough to be prepared. And after staying two months with me, he should know the troubles wouldn't be anything light."I did say that." He returned the smile; his dark expression vanished. Instead, he looked pleased.He continued, "It's getting late. How about we have dinner tonight? There's a decent restaurant nearby. We could invite Ethan and mom too..."Before I could reply, there was a slow gasp."Wait, who's Ethan? And... Mom?" Geor

VICTOR"Sir, does Miss Demoor have any adversaries? Despite her abilities, she exhibits such caution. She even expressed concern for your safety. Her opponent must be quite formidable."On the way back, Cassius broke the silence in the car, voicing the very thoughts I had been weighing in my mind.I chose not to answer. Staring out the window at the passing city lights, I kept my expression blank, though my mind was actively calculating.Veronica was a mystery. She was a lethal paradox. She was completely capable of handling herself, yet her protective instincts, specifically toward her mother and brother, had always surprised me, as though she feared something dangerous.Now, that extended even to me.It didn't unnerve me though, it intrigued me.Whoever she was hiding from had to be dangerous. Otherwise, she wouldn't be too concerned."Should we send some men over?" Cassius asked again."No need," I replied,
