"Who did this?" Debra wondered aloud.


    If anyone was to be targeted, it should''ve been Shelia, yet Carrie ended up taking the fall. Despite the uproar, Shelia had emerged unscathed.


    Seeing Randy pass by with a te, Debra grabbed his sleeve. "Wait!"


    His mouth full, Randy turned and mumbled, "What''s up?"


    "Did you do it?" Debra asked.


    "Do what?" Randy was puzzled.


    "The inspection team," Debra hinted.


    Randy pondered. "It''s probably Marion."


    "Would Marion bother with this?"


    Debra recalled the encounter with Shelia and the others earlier.


    Maybe it was Marion, after all.


    But another question surfaced, distracting Debra. "Are you so broke that you''re eating here?"


    This cafeteria didn''t seem like Randy''s usual spot.


    "Saving where I can," Randy replied tersely.


    No kidding. Marion had been throwing around billions and keeping the lights on in the entire office building all night. He had splurged on houses andvish renovations, now nning to build amercial,


    street.


    In thest two weeks, Marion had almost maxed out Randy''s cards.

    Debra invited Randy to join them. "Why did Marion call in the inspection team?"


    "As the saying goes, to kill someone is one thing, but to crush their spirit is far worse." Ast


    Debra pressed, "Be specific."


    "He didn''t say much," Randy replied.


    Debra chewed over the words.


    Marion was a wolf, fierce and cunning. There might be more to his actions.


    Turning to Jordan, Debra asked, "What happened afterward?"


    "Nothing much. Shelia kept ming Carrie. It was funny, he replied.


    Debra came to understand Marion''s n.


    Marion was even more cunning than she''d imagined.


    Shelia couldn''t risk exposing her deeds, so Marion had the inspection team me Carrie. If investigated, it would soon reveal Shelia''s involvement..


    Afraid of exposure, Shelia would naturally divert me to Carrie. This simple tactic had effectively driven a wedge between She and her ''allles. Now She couldn''t deny she had sold them out.


    Her allies had seen She''s true colors, and things were getting interesting.


    Debra shared her thoughts with Randy and Jordan.


    Jordan scoffed, "Why not just let them investigate directly and kick Shelia out of school."


    Debra replied, "Shelia could im she feared I was stealing her boyfriend, continue to deceive everyone into thinking she''s the victim and createplications Besides, her friends surely know many of her secrets. Once they turn against her, who knows what they might reveal?"


    Randy was puzzled. "Hold on, Shelia has a boyfriend?"
