"What, you have a problem with my family having more kids?"

"Let me tell you, we paid the fines!"

I felt ashamed, facepalming. "Is this something to be proud of?"

Mila turned around at the sound, meeting my father's gaze, her pupils shaking.

Her lips trembled, and after a long pause, she finally said, "Mr. Bailey."

We were in the same class in high school, and my dad taught us physics, so Mila naturally recognized him.

But compared to my dad's arrival, our relationship probably shocked her even more.

Her face turned bright red, "You, you are..."

"I am Violet's father, is there a problem?"

Mila trembled lightly, and she finally staggered and collapsed to the ground.

She laughed and cried.

It turned out, she was just foolish without knowing it.

Following Mila's confession, those reports online were also investigated.

All of them came from her.

Even many of the comments were from paid posters she hired.

It caused quite a stir throughout the school.

Because of this, the school required her to make a public apology.

Believing it was best to avoid further trouble, she bowed her head and admitted her mistake in front of all the students..

"Violet, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have spread rumors."

While I remained calm, my classmates' emotions were more intense.

"Is a simple apology enough for spreading such filthy rumors?"

"A girl spreading nasty rumors about another girl, how much grudge does she hold?"

"Not long ago, she pretended to be an insider, gossiping in our dorm. People like her are disgusting."

"I heard that she was also behind framing Violet for theft."

All the bad things she had done before were exposed.

Even Elena stepped up and said, "She was the one who told me to do all those things!

"The injuries on my face were also caused by her."

Overnight, Mila became the most talked-about person on campus.

No matter where she went, people pointed and talked about her.

Her mental state completely broke down, and she called home crying, wanting to drop out.

I didn't know what was said on the other end, but she screamed in despair, "How was I supposed to know it would turn out like this? If I'd known, I'd never have come to this lousy school. She can have it back!"

Passing by, I sensed something peculiar.

Considering her awful grades in high school, even if she had extraordinary luck, she couldn't have gotten into the same university as me.

In this...

Something was fishy!
