Serena looked up at the chancellor with a tearful, innocent expression and said softly, “Chancellor, I don’t mean to blame my sister. I’m only saying this for her own good. If she really did cheat, someone has to correct her behavior now. It’s not fair to the other students.” The chancellor was about to respond when Davis interjected angrily, “There’s no doubt she cheated! If she doesn’t give me a reasonable explanation, I’ll—” “What exactly do you want me to do?” A cold, clear voice cut through the room, interrupting Davis. All eyes turned to the source of the voice—Liza. She walked in calmly, her gaze sweeping over everyone present. From the moment Chancellor Chen called her, Liza already knew what Serena was plotting. It wasn’t hard to figure out—Serena was trying to use Davis to discredit her and ruin her reputation. The ultimate goal? To strip her of her rightful shares in the Sinclair Corperation. After all, if the company’s shareholders saw Liza as an incompetent heir who couldn’t even pass a test without cheating, they might agree to transfer the shares to Serena instead. It was a cunning plan to kill two birds with one stone. Davis’s expression darkened the moment he saw Liza. Pointing an accusatory finger at her, he demanded sharply, “You’re the cheater, aren’t you? How did you get the answers? Speak up!” Remaining unruffled, Liza reached into her bag and pressed the record button on her recorder before replying, “Mr. Davis, may I ask why you are so convinced that I cheated?” Davis faltered for a second, clearly not expecting Liza to be so calm. Her poise, combined with the confidence she radiated, seemed to catch him off guard. He quickly recovered, his voice filled with condescension. “Do you know who I am? I’m the top translator in the country. The answers you submitted were far too precise and flawless—something you could never achieve. It’s obvious you memorized someone else’s work and copied it word for word!” Liza’s lips curved into a faint smile. “So you’re saying I’m good with words? I’ll take that as a compliment, Mr. Davis.” Davis’s face darkened even further. He could not believe her audacity. How dare she turn his accusation into praise? To him, her work was too perfect to be genuine. The level of precision in her translation exceeded even that of established experts, so in his mind, cheating was the only explanation. At this point, Lady Sinclair couldn’t hold back her anger any longer. She slammed her hand on the table and shouted harshly, “Shameless girl! You’re a disgrace to the Sinclair Family! I should’ve left you in the countryside and never brought you back!” Serena, standing quietly to the side, lowered her head to hide the smirk tugging at her lips. Everything was going according to plan. Davis’s scorn was evident, and now Liza had managed to make herself look even more ridiculous by misinterpreting his words as praise.To everyone present, Liza was just a country bumpkin who couldn’t possibly master English to such a level. Even if she had some basic knowledge of the language, it was absolutely unthinkable that she could translate with such precision. There was no way she could have done it herself unless she cheated, right? Serena, as usual, put on an innocent and apologetic expression. She lowered her voice and comforted Liza in a seemingly gentle manner. “Sister, this is all my fault. If I hadn’t said you weren’t very educated, Mr. Davis wouldn’t have suspected you of cheating. Please don’t be angry, okay?” The room fell into an awkward silence. Davis, unable to suppress his anger any longer, glared at Liza. “Liza, you need to face the truth. You cheated—just admit it. I’ve also heard about the ridiculous bet you made. Not only did you win through dishonesty, but you also humiliated the other party by forcing them to kneel! If you had relied on genuine ability, I would have nothing to say, but copying answers and passing them off as your own is utterly disgraceful. You’ve embarrassed Li City University!”He turned abruptly to Chancellor and continued in a firm tone, “Chancellor, I organized this test to identify talent for the International Real-time Translation Competition. Liza’s performance cannot be trusted. I refuse to accept her as my disciple, and I suggest you expel her immediately. If you let her stay, she’ll only tarnish the university’s reputation!” Chancellor’s face paled as he hurriedly tried to calm him down. “Mr. Davis, please, let’s not jump to conclusions!” If Liza were truly expelled, Li City University would lose a rare talent—and the chancellor knew this better than anyone. Meanwhile, Liza remained calm and composed as she spoke. Her voice was steady and cutting. “Mr. Davis, if you’re so convinced I cheated, then why did you call me here at the crack of dawn?” Davis sneered coldly. “It’s simple. You need to take responsibility for your actions. You disrupted an important examination with your dishonest behavior. Do you think I’ll let this slide? You’ll apologize in front of the whole university. If you show enough remorse, I might reconsider and let you off lightly instead of pushing for your expulsion.” Liza’s lips curled into a faint, mocking smile. “Is that so? Alright then.” The chancellor froze in shock, his heart sinking. What on earth is this girl doing?! Serena’s eyes lit up with excitement. Liza had agreed far too quickly, which meant only one thing—she had indeed cheated. Otherwise, why would she be so ready to publicly apologize? Clearly, she was afraid of the consequences and was trying to minimize the damage. Feigning kindness, Serena added softly, “Sister, it’s good to admit your mistakes. I’m really proud of you for taking responsibility. I just hope you’ll learn from this and won’t repeat such behavior in the future.” Liza turned to her with an exaggerated smile, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Oh, you’re so thoughtful, dear sister! I’ll be sure to thank you properly when the time comes.” Then, she looked back at Chancellor and said matter-of-factly, “Shall we go to the broadcasting room? I’ll make a formal apology to the entire university.” Davis’s stern expression softened slightly as he nodded approvingly. To him, it seemed he had successfully made Liza accept her wrongdoing. Once the incident was made public, he would use it as an example online to show his dedication to academic integrity. He could already imagine the praise and admiration he’d receive for exposing a cheater and upholding justice. This outcome pleased him greatly—he just didn’t realize he was walking straight into Liza’s trap.
