Chapter 285

"The admin who posted this is named Samantha," Cecilia immediately revealed the admin's name and then found a group photo from a school event to show Katniss.

"Katniss, this is Samantha."

Katniss glanced at the photo and instantly recognized who it was.

Samantha was none other than the person who had been standing next to Nova when they encountered her at school.

"I've seen her before; she was with Nova."

Cecilia, upon hearing this, retorted with extreme disgust, "Nova again! What is she trying to do? It's one thing to be jealous of you, Katniss, but she keeps doing these disgusting things!"

Katniss replied, "It's okay, the truth will come out. Let's go home."

Seeing how calm she was, Cecilia asked, "Katniss, have you thought of a solution?"

"No," Katniss denied, then added, "It's not right for an innocent person to have to prove their innocence. They accuse me of using improper means and cheating; they should provide the evidence, not me."

Cecilia slapped her thigh, "Exactly! Samantha hasn't provided any evidence! Even if she's an admin, so what? If things get out of hand, we can call the police!"

Katniss nodded, "Yes, exactly. These rumors can't hurt me, so don't worry."

Cecilia nodded along but couldn't help continuing to argue with those slandering Katniss in the comments.

The two left the private hot spring.

Katniss glanced at the sky, estimating that Maximilian should be getting off work and heading home around this time.

Just as she was thinking this, Maximilian called.
