Chapter 229
The day after Christmas, the Donovan family stayed in the living room after dinner, watching dramas, playing games, and working out as usual.
Joshua, reading the news on a tablet, received a call. He stared at the incoming call silently for a long time before picking up his phone and walking into the kitchen to answer it
“Really?” After hearing something, Joshua, who had always been calm, almost lost control and shouted, “He was exposed and confirmed that he plagiarized, huh!
“Oh my God, you’re trying to comfort me, right?
“Lindsay, if you’re saying these nice things out of pity and sympathy, I don’t need…”
After saying that, Joshua realized he had spoken too loudly and quickly closed the kitchen door.
The television was on in the living room and the two people were engrossed in playing the game, so people in the living room could not hear the sounds from the kitchen and did not pay attention.
Only Athern, working on her laptop at the bar at the intersection of the living room and dining room, could hear Joshua’s
voice.
She smiled and clicked on the online news. An eye-catching headline appeared at the top. [The unprecedented scandal in academia. Rhett Simpson, the artificial intelligence expert, was exposed for plagiarizing the thesis of Professor Priscilla Day, the two-time Nobel Prize winner!]
The content of this news article was like this. Rhett’s paper in Nature last week caused a stir in the industry, with many high- tech companies seeking to work with him and a high-end international academic forum inviting him to give a speech.
However, just as Rhett was giving a speech on the thesis, a Nobel Prize winner in physics accused him of plagiarizing the work of the famous and mysterious two-time Nobel Prize winner, Professor Priscilla Day.
The accusation immediately caused an uproar. The speech was live worldwide, so the attendees were all academic, business, political, and financial elites. The impact was huge, and the accident immediately attracted the attention of the global media.
Of course, Rhett could not accept such an accusation and quarreled with the physicist on the spot.
The physicist turned on his laptop in public and entered his private email. He opened an email and told everyone, “This email was sent to me by Professor Day. She sent me the mail almost twenty days before you published your thesis.
“A third of your thesis is similar to this email. It can be considered plagiarism
Rhett argued, “It’s just a coincidence!
I’m an expert in artificial intelligence. It’s normal for me to conduct research in this direction. Your accusation isn’t convincing enough.”
Right then, an authoritative electronic information expert and an authoritative mathematician called the forum and media, saying they also had evidence that Rhett had plagiarized Priscilla
In front of countless inedia cameras, the electronic information expert and mathematician entered their private emails and opened the emails sent to them by Priscilla, comparing them carefully.
They said, “Everyone, please take a look. Dr. Simpson’s three points of view, technical points, and data support in this paper came from Professor Day’s three emails.

Brandon listened intently, his initial anger shifting to a complex mix of admiration, longing, and sadness that clouded his
features.
As the news segment wrapped up, he shut his eyes and sighed heavily in English, “It’s so unfair! This world is just so unfair! How can someone so talented be wasted on a total jerk like him? It’s ridiculous that a loser like that has so much academic power and controls the futures of so many students. I just wrong…”
Just then, Claire walked in from the kitchen with breakfast. “Brandon, breakfast is ready!”
He quickly clamped his mouth shut, forcing a calin smile as if nothing had just happened.
Athena quietly watched the exchange, a sense of satisfaction bubbling inside her. Rhett had truly gone too far this time.
He was in for it now.
