Abandoning a child carried legal consequences. That was why Victoria didn’t dare to provoke Cassia.
Second, it was also because of Cassia’s talent in volleyball.
Alfen had practically sworn to her that as long as Cassia put in the effort, she could definitely bring glory to their country at the Olympics someday.
If Cassia became a national athlete, Victoria could bask in her reflected glory, and the Woods would be held in high regard worldwide.
Because of these two points, Victoria had made several phone calls over the past few days, trying her best to persuade Cassia. However, the girl showed absolutely no interest in joining the volleyball training camp, which made Victoria extremely anxious.
“No,” Cassia replied casually.
Seeing Cassia’s indifferent attitude, Victoria’s blood boiled.
“I’ve already heard about what happened from Danica and Brie. You lip–synced on stage.”
Cassia was changing her shoes when she heard this. She looked up at Victoria.
“Danica and Brie told you I lip–synced?”
“They didn’t say it exactly like that. They…”
“Then what exactly did they say?”
Victoria opened her mouth but couldn’t find the words.
Cassia’s cold gaze pierced straight into Victoria’s eyes.
“Did they also tell you that Mr. Bell personally cleared my name and confirmed I didn’t lip- sync?”
If she hadn’t brought this up, it would have been fine, but now Victoria couldn’t hold back her suspicions any longer.
“You and Mr. Bell… did you do something shameful?”
Cassia crossed her arms and looked at Victoria. “Like what?”
Victoria’s face turned darker as she struggled to say it.

“You’re capable of doing that sort of thing, so I’m capable of saying it. No wonder you have so much money. So it turns out you…”
“Don’t go making wild guesses. I earned that money myself.” Cassia cut Victoria off, her tone icy.
“Ha!” Victoria let out a mocking laugh. “Sure, you earned it yourself through shameful means.”
The moment those words left Victoria’s mouth, Cassia’s face turned cold as ice.
Victoria trembled under Cassia’s glare.
Fortunately, Vance and Geneva returned after parking the car. The moment the couple walked through the door and saw Cassia glaring at Victoria with those cold eyes, they hurried over to ask what was going on.
After hearing Victoria’s explanation, Vance and Geneva realized Victoria had misunderstood Cassia, and they quickly stepped in to clear things up.
Vance helped Victoria sit down and laughed. “Mom, you’ve got it all wrong. Cassia didn’t lip- sync. Mr. Bell investigated and confirmed she sang live. She even let people in the audience pick songs for her to sing a cappella on the spot!”
“Really?” Victoria was stunned.
“Really,” Geneva added. “The school’s social media pages and forums are full of videos of Cassia’s performance and her live singing requests!”
As she spoke, Geneva pulled out her phone, opened the Zrario High WhatsApp group chat, and played the video for Victoria.
After watching the video, Victoria’s face lit up. “Well, well! Looks like this girl isn’t completely useless at school after all. She can actually sing? And she’s this good! Even better than professional singers!”
Seeing Victoria smile, Vance and Geneva smiled along with her.
“Cassia’s finally made us proud! Let’s see who dares to laugh at the Woods for raising a good- for–nothing young lady now! Haha!”
Cassia listened to their over–the–top praise with an expressionless face.
Danica came out of her room to use the bathroom. On her way back, she saw her parents and grandmother crowded around Cassia, showering her with compliments. Fuming, she stormed off to Brie’s room.

“I’m so mad! I wanted Cassia to humiliate hersel in front of everyone, but that hillbilly actually knows how to sing!”
Brie was sitting at her desk, holding a glass of water, and looked over at Danica.
“Danica, you’re the one who had Leah give that spiked Gatorade to Cassia, aren’t you?”
