Seven Years a Fool One Day a Queen (Kristine and Colton) novel Chapter 322

However, Xander completely ignored Calvin’s cold glare and continued to target Medea relentlessly.

And you still haven’t publicly apologized for replacing Miss Grant’s academic record. With someone like Miss Wynn, who would dare to invest in your project?”

I certainly wouldn’t!”

Who knows, maybe one day Miss Wynn will abscond with the funds, forcing one investor after another to jump to their deaths, all while being mocked with

he saying, “When you die, your debts are wiped clean. It’s easier than living.”

Medea’s face could no longer be described as just ugly–it was beyond words.

Who at this dinner wasn’t a prominent figure in the business world?

Lander had exposed all of her dirty secrets in front of these people, clearly aiming to block any future opportunities for her.

Medea could no longer bring herself to look at the investors‘ expressions.

Even with Calvin by her side, she had lost all confidence. In a panic, she stood up, her voice trembling, “I… I need to step out for a moment.”

Even in such a state, Xander didn’t let up.

‘Is Miss Wynn planning to hide away?”

Medea didn’t dare to speak and left without a word.

The host of the dinner, Sutton, could only laugh awkwardly. “Mr. Watts really… is a bit hot–headed.”

Calvin lowered his gaze and stood up as well, “I’ll excuse myself too.”

It seemed like he was in a hurry to comfort Medea.

Sutton was more than happy to see him go and didn’t even bother with polite farewells, “Mr. Young, let’s catch up another time.”

Once the two left, the atmosphere in the room returned to normal.

Curious whispers began to spread.

Xander didn’t hide anything and explained everything, detailing how Medea had plagiarized Eliza’s paper, how she had replaced Eliza’s academic record to get nto a top international business school, and how she had obtained her degree through underhanded means.

With every piece of information he revealed, the people around them couldn’t help but feel a little more shocked.

Cander made a final, resounding reminder,

When you invest, you better keep your eyes wide open. Be careful not to get swindled.”

Later that evening, Eliza told Belle about it.

Belle burst out laughing.

“This kid really went all out!”

Tm telling you, celebrities are most afraid not of haters, but of obsessive fans. When they unfollow and come back at you, they’re ruthless!”

Eliza replied, “I can tell.”

I really can’t wait to finish the rest of my scenes and rush over to Washington to enjoy the drama myself! It’s so much more exciting than hearing it secondhand from you!” Belle was clearly immersed in the gossip.

But what she was most concerned about now was whether Medea could still make a comeback.

“If Calvin can still pull her out of this, I’ll stop calling him jerk Calvin.” Belle said with firm conviction.

Eliza was curious, “So what will you call him instead?”

If he can rescue her, I’ll call him Lifeguard.”

Cliza.

Medea returned home after the dinner, her face pale.

But this wasn’t even the worst of it.

Jecause there was something even worse waiting for her.

tegina wasn’t in her usual spot, getting her beauty sleep in her bedroom. Instead, she sat in the living room, her face dark with anger.

As soon as Medea entered, Regina spoke. “There’s been an issue.”

Medea’s heart sank.

he was already so on edge that she couldn’t handle any more bad news. When Regina said there was a problem, her mind went blank.

he situation was so severe that Regina had no choice but to tell Medea the truth.

The matter with your fake degree has been exposed. The person who handled it back then has been taken away by the investigation team.”

Medea slumped heavily onto the sofa, a cold chill creeping through her body.

What do we do now?” She trembled with fear.

I’m working on contacting people who might help us resolve this, but we still have to prepare for the worst.”

legina’s decision came after careful thought.

he told Medea, “Go ask Eliza to drop the investigation. I’ll have someone pull some strings to minimize the damage.”

That won’t work!” Medea denied it, her voice frantic. “Eliza will never agree!”

We still have to try.” Regina knew how difficult it was, but if they didn’t ask Eliza, the matter of the fake degree would surely be exposed.

ince that happened… Medea’s reputation would be ruined, and her career would hit rock bottom.

Vith her carefully crafted image of having a high academic background shattered, there would be no way to recover.

nd this issue would inevitably involve Regina as well.

he would likely face punishment, or even jail time.

egina grabbed Medea’s hand and said with finality, “Medea, we’ve reached the end of the road. There’s no way out.”

Medea’s face stiffened inch by inch until it was completely pale.

The next afternoon, Eliza received a call from Matt, asking her to come to Washington University because there was new progress in the fake degree issue.

ust as she arrived at the university’s entrance, Medea blocked her path.

Today, Medea seemed different from before.

Chapter 322

She wasn’t wearing any makeup, nor was she in designer clothes.

Of course, her usual pride and arrogance were gone.

All that was left was a pale, defeated look.

Her eyes were red, and tears seemed to well up, making her look pitiful and easily triggering sympathy.

But Eliza wasn’t moved by it.

she didn’t even spare Medea a second glance and simply walked around her, heading toward Washington University.

Eliza!” Medea choked, holding back the humiliation as she spoke, “I apologize for plagiarizing your paper and for replacing your academic record. Can you… 1ot pursue this any further?”

As she spoke, Medea’s body trembled.

Her pride, her self–respect–both were being torn apart in this moment.

But she had no choice but to bow down to Eliza.

Only if Eliza let it go could she have even the slightest chance of survival.

Although she knew this hope was slim, she had no other choice.

f she didn’t bow to Eliza, she would be completely finished.

Her mother might go to jail.

Her father’s business would come to an abrupt halt…

And she, herself, would never have a chance to turn things around!

io, she had no other choice.

liza hadn’t expected Medea to come to her for mercy.

When she was exposed before, she never bowed down.

When Xander interrogated her, she didn’t lower her head either.

Now, she was bowing her head to beg Eliza, clearly desperate.

but what about Calvin?

Ier strong backing?

Why hadn’t he intervened this time?

Wasn’t it true love?

lad he been defeated by reality instead?
