Chapter 199
At this moment, Asher was feeling more than a little awkward. He hadn't expected Lemira to just lose it! Lemira's temper seemed to be getting stronger by the day!
He looked at Lemira and said, "Enough already, why did you have to go and say all that stuff to Eve?"
"Evelina cheating is a fact! Soon, everyone will know that the Langston family's adopted daughter is a cheater. But luckily, I'm the top student, and that has nothing to do with the Langston family."
Lemira's words were sharp as knives. She thought her cold distance would bring her peace.
But the Langston family were not ones to back down easily, so she had no choice but to fight in a fierce way. If they made her life difficult, she would return the favor!
The person leading the investigation finally found an opportunity to speak, "That's right, the evidence against you, Evelina, is clear. You cheated. We'll discuss this matter and inform the school about the necessary actions." "I did not cheat!" Evelina screamed, her eyes filled with defiance.
Lemira scoffed, casting a glance at Asher and Lucian Alaric, "She says she didn't cheat. Were you guys blind?"
Lemira was curious to see how this fake angel would deny the undeniable evidence now.
Lucian confronted Evelina, "If you cheated, just admit it. What exactly happened?"
He had clearly seen Evelina cheating moments ago. There had been rumors of Evelina cheating during the mock exams at school, and eventually, another student was punished.
Thinking back, there were signs of Evelina's dishonesty even then. He couldn't believe Evelina dared to cheat on this test!
"Lucian, I, I was just passing answers to the student in front of me. She wanted to copy my work!"
In her desperation, Evelina thought of this excuse. Shifting the blame was her specialty.
Hearing this, Lemira knew exactly what the fake angel was planning. After all, the person sitting in front of Evelina was her sidekick number two.
Now, the same scenario that had happened with sidekick number one was repeating itself.
After Evelina's statement, she felt a surge of confidence and addressed the investigator, "The person in front of me wanted to copy my work. My grades are usually better than Kers, so why would I copy from someone with lower grades?"
"So, you're admitting to conspiring with the person in front of you to cheat?"
"I did not cheat. It was her copying me."
Hope sparked in Evelina's heart. Yes, just like last time, if she could shift the blame to sidekick number two, she would be off the hook.
The person punished last time wasn't her, after all. This time would surely be no different.
The investigator spoke coldly, "Regardless of who copied whom, both of your actions constitute cheating!"
Evelina was choked on it, her anxiety rising, "But I'm innocent."
Lemira raised an eyebrow, "So, even though you knew cheating is wrong, you went ahead and did it, and now you claim innocence?"
Fuming, Evelina broke down in tears, turning to Asher, "Asher, you have to believe me. It was really the person in front of me trying to copy my answers."
Asher was in a tough spot too. The video evidence was clear, making denial difficult. He said to the investigator, "We'll hire a lawyer to handle this."
"It doesn't matter. We'll proceed with the normal process anyway. We're leaving now and will inform you of the outcome once we decide."
Before leaving, the lead investigator
glanced at Lemira, "Lemira, myContent from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
daughter really admires you. She
thinks you're smart and a great gamer Could she get your

vel
autograph to encourage her to study harder?" ,
"Lemira, my son also loves gaming, but it's affecting his grades. I'll make sure he learns from you, balancing gaming and studies." Lemira watched as they handed her a card with her photo printed on it. She was surprised at having merchandise for fans now. She took the card and wrote, "Study hard and make progress every day," before handing it back. With that, the officials left.
