Seven Years a Fool One Day a Queen (Kristine and Colton) novel Chapter 323

Chapter 323

Medea bowed her head in humiliation, but it didn’t move Eliza in the slightest.

Her eyes remained cold, her expression indifferent as she asked Medea in a calm, measured tone,

Your apology is insincere. You’re only doing this because you’ve been pushed into a corner. From the time this happened until now, you’ve had plenty of >pportunities and time, but you took no action. Even when Xander chased you relentlessly, all you did was hide and play the turtle.”

And now that you’ve been pushed to the brink, you suddenly want to apologize and admit your wrongs. Don’t you think it’s a little too late?”

Do you think I will accept such a low–cost apology from you? Or do you think I’m some kind–hearted person?”

Medea’s willingness to apologize did surprise Eliza.

but it was only surprising.

ven though she lowered herself so much, it was just crocodile tears.

ince her return to China, she had enjoyed the benefits of her high academic background.

Did she ever feel guilty about it?

Not even for a second. All she saw was the glory.

he didn’t even remember that the glory she wore so proudly was stolen from someone else.

Kindness shouldn’t be given to people like her.

liza’s unrelenting response made Medea feel deeply humiliated.

ler eyes burned, fists clenched as she tried to hold back the tears. Her lips trembled, “As long as you don’t pursue the matter of the fake degree, I’ll do anything

ou ask.‘

When Eliza heard this, she smiled coldly without saying a word.

But you’re worth nothing to me.”

liza’s almost heartless words made Medea’s face drain of color in an instant.

[er body swayed uncontrollably, weak to the point that she might fall at any moment.

ut Eliza ignored her vulnerability. She had no intention of wasting any more time with her and turned to leave.

a that instant, Medea panicked.

Imost instinctively, she reached out to grab Eliza.

ut the moment her hand touched Eliza’s, it was sharply pushed away.

he next moment, she stumbled and fell to the ground.

Are you okay?”

A familiar voice sounded.

Medea’s heart jolted, and she was about to say she was fine when she saw that the person concerned was Fliza. Her expression froze.

tander rushed over with an anxious look, completely ignoring the fallen Medea, his tone urgent as he asked Eliza, “Did she hurt you?”

Chapter 323

Before Eliza could speak, Xander’s face darkened. “I’m calling the police!”

Medea’s face turned pale again.

She didn’t expect Xander to be so ruthless, flipping on her so quickly without regard for their past relationship.

He even stood up for Eliza right in front of her, his gaze full of contempt, as if she was something dirty.

Xander had come with Matt and the others. When he saw Medea reach out to grab Eliza, he rushed over to protect Eliza.

By this time, Matt and the others had also arrived.

Some of them were familiar faces to Medea, such as the professor whom she had previously entertained.

With Matt came a few media representatives from official channels.

Among them was a reporter from the financial channel who had reported on Medea’s plagiarism of Eliza’s paper.

They had been invited by Matt to track and report on the developments surrounding the plagiarism case.

Medea had truly walked right into the lion’s den.

The reporters, with their professional instincts, immediately set up their cameras and directed them at Medea and Eliza.

Panicking, Medea immediately raised her hand to shield her face. “Stop filming! No filming!”

Xander ignored her panic and instead asked Eliza, “What did she come here for?”

Eliza, not hiding anything, responded, “She came to apologize and ask for forgiveness.”

Xander sneered, “If apologies worked, why do we even need the law?”

Matt also spoke up, “Miss Wynn, one must take responsibility for their actions.”

Even the professor who had once supported Medea, shook his head. “I never imagined this. She’s truly a plague to academia!”

The barrage of criticism made Medea’s mind buzz.

Everyone’s eyes were filled with disdain and scorn.

t was as if she was a rat scurrying across the street…

Medea, who had always been proud, could not bear such a crushing blow to her ego.

struggling to get up, she shielded her face and tried to flee.

ust as Eliza had said, she was once again retreating into her shell.

But this time, Xander didn’t give her a chance.

He directly blocked her way, his voice cold and decisive as he questioned her. “One hour ago, WT Business School announced the cancellation of your degree and they will hold you accountable for plagiarizing other people’s papers and research.”

“Additionally, your improper relationship with William has also been publicly exposed by Mrs. William, including many private photos, videos, and chat records between you and William.”

Medea’s eyes turned bright red in an instant.

But her lips were so pale, they seemed to lose all color.

“You’re truly disgusting.” Xander’s words were sharp, like ice shards.

Chapter 323

With those few words, he drove the knife into Medea’s heart.

Her face went completely white.

In this moment, the blow was worse than death.

Kander took a step back, and the reporters immediately rushed in, surrounding Medea,

she no longer had any way to escape.

Countless questions exploded in her mind, and the scene descended into chaos.

she struggled, furious, and hopeless…

Her hair and clothes were a mess.

Her once–glamorous image was completely shattered.

n the crowd, someone pushed her, and Medea once again fell to the ground.

This time, the pain was immense, and she no longer had the strength to rise.

All the glory she had obtained through dishonest means turned into the sharpest knives, cutting back at her with every bit of karma she had sown.

sitting on the ground in a pitiful heap, her nails dug into her palms as she tried to numb her brain with physical pain.

But she sadly realized, everything was beyond repair.

Eliza, standing just a few meters away, was calmly accepting interviews from the media.

A reporter asked, “Miss Grant, I heard that WT Business School has sent you a new invitation to enroll?”

Eliza nodded, “Yes.”

Will you go?”

Yes, I’m quite interested in WT Business School’s full–time MBA program.”

But aren’t you also going to pursue a master’s degree under Professor Adams? Will you be able to manage both?”

Before Eliza could answer, Matt chimed in, “For her, it’s not a problem. By spring next year, she’ll be enrolled at WT Business School.”

The reporters were stunned, then showered Eliza with even more admiration.

‘Miss Grant is truly a winner in life! Balancing both career and academics! I heard you’re going to G City next week to ring the bell for your IPO. Congratulations!”

Eliza smiled faintly, “Thank you.”

“What about love? Miss Grant, have you met someone you like? When will you find true love?”

This was indeed a question every female entrepreneur would face.

It seemed quite unfair that no reporter ever asked male entrepreneurs such questions.

Was it because women were expected to be confined to the small world of relationships?

Eliza smiled gracefully at the camera, “Compared to true love, I prefer real gold and silver.”
