Chapter 17: The Man Who Claims to Be Her Uncle
“I’ve already had that post deleted by the forum administrator, and Miss. Bellerose is not at all in the situation you’re imagining. She came from a prominent family, so does she really need to rely on a man? That is such a stupid accusation. All of you, take some time to reflect on your actions!”
The principal scolded vehemently, leaving the homeroom teacher and students stunned and speechless, unable to utter a word.
The principal quickly averted his gaze and noticed Charlotte seated at the back of the classroom. He
immediately strode over.
“You must be Charlotte Bellerose, right?” The principal’s stern demeanor from earlier transformed into a kind and gentle one.
“I am indeed, Sir.” Charlotte calmly assessed the man in front of her.
Originally, she had been leisurely watching the “performance” of the students and teachers, but the sudden appearance of the Emperor Star University principal was unexpected.
“It’s like this, I have a friend who wants to meet you. Would you be willing to come with me to see him?” The principal’s eyes twinkled with a warm smile, even a hint of flattery in them.
Charlotte’s eyes flickered.
It seemed that this “friend” was not ordinary…
“Sure, no problem.” She readily agreed, then left the stupefied students and teachers behind, walking alongside the principal.
Charlotte then followed the principal into an office.
Upon pushing the door open, she saw a tall and authoritative figure with his back turned to her.
The man was dressed in a deep gray suit, exuding a powerful and aloof aura. Perhaps he heard the sound, he suddenly turned around.
Black short hair paired with deep black eyes, the man possessed a strikingly handsome and intense face, with cold and sharp eyebrows.

The slightly, attempting a gentle tone.
Charlotte hesitated for a moment.
Who was he?
She just stood there, looking at the man in front of her.
“I am your uncle. It’s our first meeting, so, normally, you don’t recognize me.”
Uncle?
Charlotte’s mind raced, finally grasping some information in a very short time.
Indeed, she had uncles, three of them!
Vanessa lost her father at a young age and followed her mother to remarry when she was seventeen. Her mother later gave birth to three half–brothers from different fathers.
These were her three uncles. Three uncles who were about the same age as her.
However, Vanessa’s relationship with these three half–brothers was far from harmonious, to the point of complete estrangement.
It was all because of their parents‘ sudden death in a car accident. Vanessa had heartlessly sent her three young half–brothers to an orphanage and didn’t even bother to care for them!
Who would have thought that those three half–brothers would excel in life?
All three had earned elite medals: the oldest became a conglomerate CEO, the second became a top–tier celebrity, and the third became an E–Sports champion…
Of course, at this moment, Vanessa was unaware of all this. She still thought her three half–brothers
were suffering in the orphanage!
“Charlotte, President Wynters is not only your uncle but also one of the major shareholders of
Emperor Star.” The principal narrowed his eyes, smiling broadly.
As the youngest billionaire on the Forbes list, Sedric Wynters had secretly acquired a significant portion of Emperor Star’s shares.
Today, he coincidentally came across the post on the campus forum and saw his niece, Charlotte, which prompted him to rush to Emperor Star University.

Thinking of that post, Sedric’s gaze turned ley. “It’s unbelievable how so many people believe in these baseless rumors! We just returned to the capital city, where do we have the time to get involved with men?”
“Yes, yes, indeed,” the principal chimed in repeatedly. “I thought the same way, and with you as her uncle, from a prominent family, how could she possibly rely on men? Mr. Wynters, rest assured, I’ve already deleted the post, and I’ll help with clarifying the situation and dispelling rumors in the
future.”
Sedric’s gaze shifted to Charlotte, locking onto her intently.
“Lily, why won’t you call me uncle?”
