Chapter 228: Public Apology
Victoria’s face immediately turned very unpleasant. She squinted her eyes, and there were
unsettling emotions in her heart. The arrival of Gilbert was obviously not in her favor. This man was not someone she could easily offend.
“Teacher Gilbert,” it was at this moment that Charlotte, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke. She looked at Gilbert and called out in a low voice, “This matter is not just a simple rumor.”
Gilbert also looked at Charlotte. There was a hint of softness in his gaze as he responded, “What is it then?”
Charlotte’s sharp eyebrows and eyes were cold, and she glanced at Victoria without showing any emotions. She said in a cold tone, “You’ll have to ask her about it.”
When this was said, both the principal and Gilbert’s gazes coincidentally fell on Victoria.
“Victoria, is this matter related to you?” The principal furrowed his brow and asked with a puzzled expression. Victoria was a super genius and a perfect student, and he couldn’t believe she would do something as foolish as spreading rumors.
Gilbert looked down at Victoria with a hint of inquiry in his gaze.
Victoria raised her eyes slightly, her expression calm. “Naturally, this has nothing to do with me.”
She continued to stubbornly deny, unwilling to admit any involvement.
“Just now, Charlotte has already checked my phone and my forum account,” Victoria spoke calmly and methodically, “She didn’t find anything suspicious. Therefore, the rumors have nothing to do
with me.”
Upon hearing this, Charlotte let out a soft, mocking laugh. She stared straight at Victoria, a chilling glint in her eyes. “You say it has nothing to do with you, but is it really unrelated?”
“Indeed, there are no posting records on your account because,” Charlotte narrowed her eyes slightly, “you had someone else post on your behalf!”
With that, Charlotte opened Victoria’s phone and accessed her messaging app, where she found a chat log
– a conversation between Victoria and the forum host.
The forum host who made the posts was actually just an Internet water army member skilled in posting on forums and making up stories. Although Victoria had photos at her disposal, she wasn’t

adept at crafting forum stories. So, she sought out this water army writer to post on her behalf. Furthermore, she sent the photos she took of Charlotte and Gilbert as well. They could be used as damning evidence if needed. This is the truth behind the whole matter. Everything was orchestrated by Victoria.
“You…” Victoria, upon seeing that her chat records had been uncovered by Charlotte, suddenly widened her eyes. Her throat seemed to constrict, and she couldn’t utter a word.

However, Charlotte turned away and handed the phone to the principal. “Principal, this phone contains all the evidence. It’s better to leave it in your hands.”
The principal accepted the phone and saw the chat records on it. His face immediately darkened greatly. He truly couldn’t believe that one of his proudest students, the academically excellent genius
Victoria, had actually committed such a malicious and foolish act! Victoria, how could she… It was impossible not to feel heartbroken.
“You still refuse to admit it?” The principal cast a cold, sidelong glance at Victoria, his tone suddenly
becoming stern.
Victoria bit her lip, her eyes wide, remaining silent.
Gilbert looked at her with indifference and said in a subdued voice, “At this point, you’re still so
stubborn. I don’t understand what benefit you see in defaming me and Charlotte, and why it’s worth
resorting to such means.”
Victoria clenched her fingers tightly, struggling to maintain her last bit of composure.
Why did she do this?
On one hand, it was because of Exen. She liked Exen very much, but he preferred to be close to
Charlotte rather than her. Charlotte had taken away what she wanted the most – Exen’s admiration
and attention. During the Starry Night Training Camp, Exen had shown even more care and
attention to Charlotte. How could she not feel resentment?
On the other hand, Charlotte’s influence was growing stronger and stronger, and Victoria was afraid
that one day she would surpass her. So, she wanted to take measures to suppress Charlotte. That’s
why she came up with this plan.
“You need to publicly apologize!” Gilbert’s stern and severe voice suddenly rang in her ears, causing
Victoria’s body to shiver involuntarily. A public apology? Would that not ruin her reputation?
“No,” Victoria vehemently shook her head, her eyes finally showing signs of panic. Her voice quivered as she said, “I can apologize now…”

She finally yielded and felt fear.
She turned to look at Charlotte, her eyes filled with a hint of guile “Chariota, Sagaingize to you and will also apologize to Teacher Gilbert. We can do it privatary
“But I think that’s not enough” Charlotte pursed her lips slightly, coldly adding, “You’re damaged my reputation and spread rumors about me. You must publicly apologize to restore my Announ
“That’s right, Charlotte is absolutely right,” Gilbert nodded from the side, kis gaze carrying a commanding presence. “You must make a public apology”
“Let’s do it this way!” The principal sighed and coldly ordered Victoria, “Go to the campus broadcasting room later and apologize publicly, then post a public apology vetement with your real
name on the forum.”
