"Not covering up, yet without solid evidence... isn't this putting him in an impossible situation?"
The principal said, "Just post a clarification on our school's forum. Say that after our investigation, Eloise is not suspected of cheating for now. Let's not blow this out of proportion among the students."
It seemed like the only option left.
If he couldn't calm the storm, his tenure as principal would be considered a failure.
Meanwhile—
"This is outrageous! The school is just brushing the issue under the rug? Then what was the point of me going through all the trouble of hiring those online mercenaries?"
Luna was visibly fuming.
In just an afternoon, all their posts were banned.
Although many students still wanted to discuss the issue, the school's official website had already posted a stern warning.
They were forbidden from continuing the discussion.
Otherwise, they would face consequences.
"I expected as much, no need to get so worked up."
"What? You expected this?" Luna was stunned. "You knew the school would suppress this?"
"Of course." Freya said, "Who is Eloise? She's Kieran's favorite, and given Kieran is our school's biggest benefactor, as long as there's no concrete evidence or major public outcry, the school's totally going to cover for Eloise."
"Then why did we even bother?" Luna felt deflated, like a balloon losing air.
Had she known, she wouldn't have put in so much effort, only for Eloise to get off scot-free.
