“In college, Professor Dinwiddie was the one who helped me. She’s the person I admire the most. When everyone else thought I cheated, she was the only one who trusted me.

“I need to find out why she got in trouble because of me.”

Tracy’s tone was honest and determined, even a little begging.

Trina looked at her, her eyes slowly filling with tears.

Phoebe had told her not to talk about these things around Tracy, but she knew she felt wronged!

“You want to know why? Fine, I’ll tell you!”

Trina turned around, her eyes full of anger aimed at Tracy. “It’s because she always believed you didn’t plagiarize. My mom went everywhere trying to find videos and pictures.

“Whether it showed you directly or anything you’d used, she bought everything—no matter the price–as long as it was connected to you.

“Because of that, someone reported her for bothering students. She lost all her titles and almost got kicked out of college. Everyone there was gossiping, calling her a pervert who’s into girls and has some kind of weird obsession.”

By the time she said the last part, Trina couldn’t hold back her tears anymore.

Her mother’s reputation and future were completely destroyed because of this!

Tracy turned pale.

She let go of Trina’s hand and stepped back, unsteady.

She really didn’t know… She had no idea.

When everyone accused her of plagiarism, she was desperate and saw Phoebe as her last hope. She begged her to trust her and find evidence to clear her name.

Later, when the Jackmans suddenly sent her to the Angelic Etiquette Academy, she thought no one cared about her anymore, and she had lost everything, not knowing someone was still fighting for her.

That person risked her own future and reputation just because she believed in her.

Trina wiped her tears away, “My mom went to the hospital because of you. She was ready to let it go,

but when she saw you again, she caused trouble at college, and that’s what made this happen.

“I’m begging you, if you truly respect her the most, then don’t show up in front of her again!”

Every word felt like a sharp pain in Tracy’s chest, making it hard for her to breathe.

But Trina didn’t feel sorry for her at all. She pushed Tracy away angrily.

Honestly, even if she didn’t, Tracy would have been too ashamed to face Phoebe.

Giving up her reputation and future for someone like her wasn’t worth it at all.

She needed to find a way to clear Phoebe’s name!

Right now, Tracy didn’t have much power, so she could only try asking Walter for help.

But after trying several times, she couldn’t find him because Walter had just found an important lead.

Even though Tom wasn’t from Cloudville, Walter’s skills made it easy to track down information about him.

Tom lost his father when he was ten and went to live with his mother after she got married again. He used to be lazy,, selfish, and spend a lot of time gambling. People in the neighborhood knew him as a troublemaker.

This useless and uneducated guy suddenly got rich about four years ago.

He didn’t run a business or win the lottery, but every month, there was a sum of money deposited into his account.

The account sending money to him was opened by the Jackmans for Erin.

The very first transfer happened right when Erin returned to live with the Jackmans.

At first, the amount was 10,000, then it grew to 30,000, then 50,000, and finally reached 100,000.

About two years ago, the money transfers suddenly stopped.

This happened shortly after Tracy was “sent abroad.”

With all these coincidences, Walter wasn’t buying it. He immediately ordered a deeper

investigation.

The investigation showed that Erin would withdraw cash from the bank every few months- sometimes a few hundred thousand, other times over a million.

Nobody knew where the money went, but after a few days, Tom would get a large amount of

money.

Some of it went into the bank, but most was spent or lost gambling.

Walter, who was very careful and thorough, had someone check Tom’s spending. They found that the amount of money he received was the same as the amount of cash Erin took out.

Also, every few months, Tom’s phone number would call Erin’s number.

All these clues showed there was a secret between Tom and Erin.

Walter quickly followed this hint but couldn’t discover anything more.

It looked like, besides this link, there was nothing else connecting them.

The less he found, the more doubtful he became.

The Jackmans, being one of the top wealthy families in Cloudville, wouldn’t just accept anyone claiming kinship with a simple paternity test.

When Erin suddenly showed up, the Jackmans immediately checked her background thoroughly.

Walter had seen those reports, and there was no sign of any connection to Tom.

Also, the details he got about Tom now looked thorough and detailed on the surface, but when it came to his own family, it was all just superficial digging.

If it were another person, maybe they wouldn’t catch this small detail.

But Walter, who had worked closely with Franklin for many years, definitely wasn’t someone who could be easily tricked.
