Chapter 175: Little White Lotus

Laura Summers cried in the teachers’ office.
After all, she was only seventeen and had grown up in a spoiled environment. She had a strong sense of entitlement, but in reality, she had no clue. When things went wrong, she was at a loss.
The Dean of Instruction sternly asked where she bought the answers, how she made the deal, and the source of the other party’s information.
The questions were detailed and probing.
Exam leaks were a big deal, and if they weren’t resolved cleanly, there would be hidden dangers in every future exam.
But how could Laura know this? The answers were given to her by Yolanda Summers, and to buy the answers for this acceleration exam, she even used all of her pocket money she saved up over the past few months!
Now, she couldn’t involve Yolanda.
Yolanda was her sister, and even if she pushed all the blame on Yolanda, Laura would still be involved in the scandal!
Despite being not so bright, Laura could still distinguish the stakes involved.
So, she pointed the finger at Purple Summers.
She couldn’t accept that after such a long period of careful preparation, Purple ended up unscathed!
“She framed me!” Laura cried hysterically, sobbing and yelling, “We went to school together in the same car this morning, and it must have been then that she snuck the cheat sheet into my bag! It’s all Purple’s doing!”
This was a very serious matter, and any suspicious person had to be investigated.
Purple was also brought to the teachers’ office.
Though she was fully prepared, she looked genuinely scared and worried.
“I have no reason to do such a thing,” Purple defended herself, her voice was gentle and carried the innocence and timidity of a young girl, “I know how to do the questions for the acceleration exam, so why would I need to buy answers? If you don’t believe me, you can test me anytime.”
Her eyes were clear and innocent, and her gaze was open and honest. Despite the lack of evidence to prove her cheating, the teachers instinctively sided with her.
However, they still temporarily came up with a few questions for Purple to do.
Purple answered them all correctly.
When the English teacher tested her speaking skills, they found that Purple’s fluency and grammar were excellent, and the teachers were even more impressed.
Purple cleared herself of suspicion with her performance.
But Laura wouldn’t let it go and insisted that it was Purple’s scheme!
The teachers had Purple confront Laura, and in her loss of control, Laura almost lunged at her in a fight. Purple stepped back, hiding behind a teacher, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.
Without evidence, Laura’s accusations against Purple were futile, and the teachers disapproved of Laura’s foul language, believing her to be poorly brought up.
When Purple left the teachers’ office, she told them, “I’m the adopted daughter of the Summers family.”
Her voice hesitated as if she were choking back tears, and she whispered, “If I pass the acceleration exam, could you arrange for me to move to another class? I’m really afraid of her…”
The teachers felt sorry for her.
So, she was the adopted daughter of the Summers family. No wonder Laura was so confident in pushing the blame onto her. She must have often been bullied by the birth daughter at home.
The thing that teachers who dealt with privileged students on a daily basis hated most was students who abused their status to oppress others.
They sympathized with Purple’s experience and grew increasingly disgusted with Laura.
Laura would definitely be expelled!
Back in the classroom, Purple took out her textbooks from her desk, spread them out, and read while recalling the entire incident.
She didn’t regret it one bit.
If she hadn’t been alert, she would be the one being held in the teachers’ office for questioning right now. Not only would she be expelled, her reputation would be ruined, and she’d face endless ridicule and mockery! Her head would never be held high again!
Whenever someone mentioned her, they would say: Oh, that girl who cheated at Grey’s.
This plot by the Summers sisters was no small matter; they wanted to put an end to Purple’s future and life! And their father might be the real culprit behind Purple’s life-threatening situation! Therefore, Purple wouldn’t show any mercy.
The news of the cheater being caught spread quickly throughout the school, and once classes were over, the students all gathered together to discuss it.
When the homeroom teacher suddenly called Purple to the office, it was about the bag.
Purple felt a headache.
Just what exactly did Ryan Wesley put in the bag?
