Only Callum and Jasmine remained calm.Jasmine had already known that Margret would tell Callum her true feelings, but she was not sure whether Margret really had a thing for him or whether she really was just using him to get rid of Asher.However, Callum knew that Margret liked him only because of his wealth.

Chapter 120
The students in the class were all befuddled. No one seemed to expect that the events of the day would spiral out this way.The real thief was not Callum, but instead, Ethan and Jayden!Jayden had two reasons for ratting only Ethan out. The first reason was that he wanted to protect Eva and the second was that he only had evidence of Ethan instructing him on his phone. He had no evidence that anyone else had contacted him about framing Callum, so it was useless to name anyone else as Ethan's co-conspirator."Callum, how do you plan to deal with both of them?" Now that William knew Callum's identity, he naturally left it up to the young man to decide on how Jayden and Ethan would be punished."The both of you don't want to be expelled, do you?" Callum hesitated for a moment, narrowed his eyes, and turned to Jayden and Ethan to ask them."Yes, as long as you don't get me expelled, I'll do anything you want!" Ethan nodded quickly without even thinking about it.
Chapter 119
Inside the lecture hall, Benedict slowly made his way to Callum's side, then said with a completely straight face, "After a thorough investigation into this matter with Principal Finch, we've found that there was a very big misunderstanding. The real thief was not Callum, but instead, it was the accuser, Jayden himself!""What?" Everyone in the class was astounded to hear this and incredulous expressions emerged on their faces."Jayden had stolen the class fees when he was alone in class and hid them in Callum's desk. Finally, he took the opportunity to frame Callum when Serena had discovered that the money went missing. This was a classic case of fabricating a charge against someone else!" Benedict continued sternly.As soon as he finished speaking, the entire class fell into pin drop silence.Everyone froze in their seats, while Carol, Ethan, and Eva were now utterly bowled over.Vera and Serena, too, were very surprised to hear this. They had their suspic
Chapter 118
Everyone in the class had thought that Callum, Jayden, and Benedict had returned to the lecture hall so that Callum could plead for mercy from his classmates. They were so certain that Callum was guilty, and that he had admitted to the principal that he was the class thief.Thus, most of them stood up and scoffed at Callum to their hearts' content.Callum knew that he was not popular in class. Now that everyone saw him as the class thief, they naturally would not let him off the hook that easily. Everyone took turns chewing his head off.Lucas and Felix, however, were frozen in their seats, sitting in a daze. Even now, they still seemed to be unable to believe that their friend, Callum, had stolen the class fees.At the very front of the lecture hall, Benedict and William were about to go onto the podium and clarify the situation, but then, Callum stretched out his hand to stop the two of them in their tracks."Mr. Bowman, let me clarify the situation on you
Chapter 117
Now that he had no way out, Jayden had made up his mind to tell the truth about everything that he had done in order to frame Callum for stealing. Nonetheless, just as he was about to speak, he suddenly had the realization that if he admitted to framing Callum, then the school would deal with him as a thief instead, and his fate would be expulsion from the school.In other words, whether or not he admitted to it, he was at risk of being expelled, anyway.He considered his options. If he pleaded guilty, he would definitely be labeled as a thief. On the other hand, if he chose to keep playing dumb, there might even be a chance for him to make it out of this mess unscathed.So, after a moment of hesitation, he persisted at the top of his lungs, "Whatever happened today has nothing to do with me. I didn't frame Callum!"Staying stubborn right to the end, are you?" Callum said flatly as he glared at Jayden."I... I'm not being stubborn. This whole thing has nothi
Chapter 116
If Callum wanted to settle his score with Carol, Ethan, and Jayden right away, it was actually very simple to do.With a single order, Callum could get them expelled by William, effective immediately.However, he did not do so, because the issue of theft had not been clarified yet. If he did not clear his name, the entire school would still think that he was a thief, and with a nasty reputation like that, continuing his studies in Solbury College would be a living hell for Callum.Therefore, he had to clear his name and reveal the truth.In the meantime, Benedict was still in shock about Callum's true identity. He was still processing this mentally, so even as he arrived at the lecture hall to summon Jayden under Callum's orders, he could not hide the nervous expression on his face.Huff.He took a deep breath, pulled a poker face, then stepped into the lecture hall."Mr. Finch, why are you here? Has there been any update on Callum's situation?" Se
Chapter 115
Inside the principal's office of Solbury College, William and Benedict were kneeling down before Callum, begging the young man to show mercy on them and give them a second chance.Callum, on the other hand, was seriously considering whether or not to fire the both of them. After all, if he really had them fired, it would not be that easy to find a suitable replacement for the principal for the college on such short notice.However, if he did not fire them, knowing of the wicked deeds that the both of them had engaged in on school grounds, neither of them had what it took to be educators of the future generation.Consequently, Callum hesitated for a long while.Click, clack, click…Right then, the sound of high-heels hitting the ground suddenly sounded outside the office.Callum could not help but be taken aback at the familiar sound.Knock, knock, knock.There was a knock on the door."Principal Finch, are you in there? Vera asked
