Chapter 32 - A Sweet Girl Won’t Be Fooled By The Villainess

Chapter 32 Absolutely Not! Jessina was absolutely furious! What did George think Priss Academy was? If test questions could be leaked at will, then what significance was there to being first in the grade? Her idol, Miss Barren, would also be tarnished because of this! Absolutely not! Thinking about all these, Jessina became even angrier. She continued, "I misunderstood Ifia before, and I want to apologize to her here! I'm sorry, Ifia, I shouldn't have easily speculated and misunderstood you. I'm really sorry!" Ifia didn't expect Jessina, who usually stood firm, to be able to humble herself to this extent. She was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded, "It's okay, Jessina. I know you are a righteous person, that's why you are so serious." However, as soon as Ifia's words were spoken, she knew she was in trouble! In an instant, it was as if she was standing on the catwalk of a fashion show, facing numerous gazes. "Is that Ifia? She's so cute!" "Hmph, just a commoner, what's so great about that?" "Did she really score full marks by her own ability? Or as that boy said, if that's the case, we absolutely cannot condone it!" "Have your brains been eaten by dogs? Even if test questions can really be bought and sold, how much money would a commoner like Ifia have? Are we not supposed to help the rich instead of the poor?" Finally, the students saw Ifia in person, and the buzz of voices immediately started. However, those with brains were the majority. Most of their discussions revolved around Ifia's lovely face. Only a small number of people were indignant, demanding that Priss Academy provide a believable answer instead of giving hollow replies. Surprisingly, the majority were commoner students. Standing next to Ifia, Lucy pursed her lips, listening to others' comments about Ifia. Her angry reddish-brown eyes bulged with anger. They don't understand Ifia at all, how could they say such things! Nonsense people are really annoying! Hmph! Go, Jessina! George must be thoroughly dealt with! "George, I am ashamed of my ignorance, and now it's your turn! Since you accuse Ifia of cheating, then please present relevant evidence." Jessina was full of fighting spirit now. After apologizing, she turned the sword towards George. When George didn't immediately speak, Jessina disdainfully snorted. A mocking smile appeared on her face at the right moment, as she exaggeratedly said, "Are you kidding me? You don't have any evidence, but based on your guess, you go around slandering Ifia's reputation? George, have you failed Imperial Law, or do you know that baseless defamation can land you in jail?" "I... I just raised doubts, if Ifia is innocent, she shouldn't be afraid of an investigation!" After Jessina's sarcastic remarks, George seemed to regain his sanity. His face turned pale, his hanging arm trembled slightly, and the anger that had been building in his chest was released, but the following reality made him suddenly unsure of what to do. So now, he could only be stubborn and not admit his mistake. "Mr. George, regarding your doubts, the academy has prepared the evidence." However, before George could think of a way to escape, things took a serious turn. The grade director of the first year at Priss Academy suddenly spoke. He looked at George coldly, then raised his hand, signaling the teacher who had supervised the examination in that class today to step forward. George's public accusation of Ifia cheating was not just suspicion. It also questioned the fairness of the academy. Therefore, Ifia didn't need to do anything; Priss Academy took action. The supervising teacher hurried up to the platform, ignoring George, who was still dazed, and immediately spoke, "Hello, everyone, I am Professor Justin Orlin, who teaches music. Now, I swear on behalf of the Orlin family, that Ifia did not engage in any cheating during the exam." As everyone knows, when one swears in the name of their family in the Western Empire, there's no need for verification. It's definitely genuine! Besides the assurance of the supervising teacher, the grade director had also prepared other evidence. "Students, this is Ifia's test paper. Now, please line up and take a look one by one." As soon as the grade director said this, the students were piqued with interest. Irrespective of their doubts, this was a full marks test paper from the top of the grade; they were unable to appreciate Miss Barren's legendary test paper, but they had now found a substitute, especially for those students with good grades who seized the opportunity and rushed to be in the front. They wanted to see just how amazing Ifia really was! Why was she able to get full marks! One must understand that besides fixed-answer questions, there were other test questions that were judged based on the different perspectives of the marking teachers... getting full marks implies that the teachers regarded Ifia's answers as very correct, and could not find any reason to deduct marks. How could a person who had only been studying at the academy for a few days achieve the approval of all the teachers? People as talented as Miss Barren are not easily found... Unless, Ifia is a rare genius! However, when they actually saw the answers on the test paper, everyone fell silent uncontrollably. This was because Ifia's answers were so perfect that they were unable to find any mistakes. Some of her responses even made them unable to help but exclaim, as even the professors' teachings were not as adept as hers! Indeed, they were on point. Even though they had been studying at the academy for nearly a month longer than Ifia, when it came to writing out such answers, they couldn't match her. First place in the grade is well-deserved! The students waiting in line to view the test papers were orderly, and the display activity ended in less than ten minutes. By this time, George had realized that he had caused a big disaster for himself. His panicked expression looked towards Irine and Fiona, but they pretended to avoid his gaze, clearly showing their refusal. Seeing this, George felt despair, but not wanting to be expelled, he gritted his teeth and turned his gaze towards Ifia. If Ifia forgave his unjust behavior, then there should still be a chance to turn the situation around. As George glanced at her, Ifia raised her eyebrows and then enquired of the system. [System, what is George's fate in the original plot?] [In the original plot, George, jealous of the female lead's first place achievement, conspired with others to frame her. However, Prince saw through it and George was expelled and sent to prison.] Tsk tsk tsk, originally, Ifia thought George was just a frustrated student. But after hearing the system say this, he doesn't seem like a good person! With that in mind, there was no need to be cautious in resolving this! "Ifia, I misunderstood you. Please forgive my irrationality!" Just as Ifia was making a clicking sound in her mind, George suddenly spoke out loudly, asking for forgiveness. In fact, he even knelt down in public.
