Ferdinand’s face was a mix of disgust and annoyance.


    He wasn’t one to get involved, but he always paid close attention to his research.


    “Remember the question I asked concerning the data leak earlier today?”


    Ferdinand asked her.


    Avalynn’s heart skipped a beat.


    “Uh… Yes, I remember it…”


    Ferdinand’s gaze was icy as he pressed on, “You told me you never use that forum.


    So, how did you see Mr.


    Campbell’s question there?”


    “I… I…” Avalynn stammered, her forehead beading with sweat.


    Saul, watching the scene unfold, suggested, “Looks like you’ll have to solve the problem again.


    ”


    Cornered, Avalynn reluctantly pulled out her notebook to solve the problem, but her pen hovered over the page, unable to start.


    Hannah sat elegantly in a chair, her legs crossed, watching Avalynn as thetter worked through the problem.


    A smile yed on Hannah’s lips.


    When Avalynn finally solved the puzzle, it would prove her innocence in the giarism usation.


    However, Hannah doubted she would get that far.


    She was eager to see Avalynn’s attempt.


    After half an hour, Avalynn let out a relieved sigh, sliding the notebook across to Ferdinand.


    “Ferdinand, I’ve figured it out,” she dered.


    Ferdinand scrutinized the solution in her notebook, skepticism in his narrowed eyes.


    “Is this really your own work?”


    “Yes,” Avalynn asserted with confidence.


    Ferdinand’s frustration was palpable, his patience worn thin by what he saw as a waste of time on a deceiver.


    “Do you take us for fools?” he snapped, standing to hand the notebook to Saul.


    “Mr.


    Campbell, here’s your genius.


    ”


    The solution was a jumble,cking the polish and efficiency of previous answers.


    The data used was unclear.


    Saul, with a frown etched on his face, read through it, his once kind expression hardening.


    He mmed his hand on the table, demanding, “What’s going on here? Exin yourself!”


    Hannah, with a sly smile, murmured, “Avalynn, it’s wrong to im others’ work as your own.


    ”


    Avalynn’s facade crumbled.


    The pen slipped from her fingers, ttering to the floor.


    Shock and fear were evident in her eyes.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
