Facade

Chapter 27 

Robert was shocked by Hera’s request. 

Why would any student choose the weak class over the top class? She shouldn’t act wilfully just because she had excellent grades! 

Not to mention, James had invited a group of reporters today to report on the academic prodigy entering Class A 

“There is no why. Just arrange it for me. Also, arrange a dormitory for me. I want to live on campus.” 

With that, Hera hirmed and left. Her face was impassive, her eyes cold. 

In the open classroom, James and someone from the academy’s PR department attended to the reporters. They waited for Hera to start the interview, but only Giselle came in the 

end. 

James pulled Giselle aside, asking, “Where is Hera? Why didn’t you bring her over?” 

She probably has stage fright. On the way, she refused to come here and went off somewhere. I couldn’t stop her,” Giselle replied with an innocent look 

Thinking Hera dropped the ball at the last minute, james suddenly grew angry. 

“Sure enough, I thought too highly of a country bumpkin. Forget it! Let’s cancel the interview, lest she can’t answer the reporters‘ questions. It’ll disgrace the Everett family,” he said in a low voice. 

An Imperceptible smile tugged at Giselle’s lips when she saw James get angry. 

“No, Dad. If she doesn’t show up, the credibility of this news will be in question. Since she doesn’t want to come over, we can take the reporters to her. She should be back in the classroom now.” 

Thinking what Giselle said made sense, James asked the reporters to move to junior year class A. 

Giselle led the way, deliberately making a detour. 

As Giselle intended, the reporters noticed a crowd gathered in front of the school bulletin board. They were talking about an academic prodigy, cheating, shamelessness, and so 

1. on. 

With their keen sense for gossip, the reporters sensed potential news just by these few keywords. Taking a closer look, they indeed discovered shocking news. 

“You must be Hera’s family? The cheater has the nerve to show off. Get out of Cavenridge!” 

Seeing James with a group of reporters, some students started roasting 

“What academic prodigy? She just cheated!” 

1. r. That’s grandstanding!” 

“The academic prodigy turned out to be a cheater.” 

“This is too much! She didn’t just copy Christopher’s answers to the questions but even his composition.” 

“Cheating behavior will affect the academy’s reputation. Please kick Hera out of Cavenridge!” 

The chattering of students around puzzled James. The staff member from the PR department who came with him, Nicole Lilleti, also looked confused 

They approached the bulletin board. Seeing the exam papers posted on it, James froze. It was like a bolt from the blue to him This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

James dark expression was in stark contrast to the excited expressions of the reporters, who were busy taking photos. 

Posted on the bulletin board were the exam papers of two students with similar answers and almost copy–and–paste compositions. The names on them were Hera and Christopher respectively. 

Christopher–the son of Cavenridge’s dean and the top shadent! Hera not only cheated in the exam but even copied Christopher’s exam papers! 

“Stop! Stop taking photos!” James‘ first reaction was to cover the exam papers Unfortunately, the coples were all over the bulletin board. His attempt was futile.
