No longer a pushover

Chapter 177 When Donovan heard Noelle talking back to him, he felt like she was challenging his authority. He couldn't help but interject, "Noelle, this is a family matter. How could you handle it like that?"

Xenia's father had even saved Noelle's life! Had she forgotten all about that?

The investigator couldn't take it. "Mr. Liddell, you're showing favorites. The one who cheated was Xenia. What does this have to do with Noelle?"

"Yeah, she's the state valedictorian. How would she cheat? She's already the first."

"Usually, those who cheat are those who get bad grades. Even if they had good grades, they definitely wouldn't be able to cheat a valedictorian. You couldn't get here by copying."

Donovan was rendered speechless. There was an unnatural expression on his face. He was finding it difficult to contend with the truth. Why had Xenia become the cheater?

Donovan replied insistently, "But Xenia has always been obedient and mature. Noelle was the one who was reported first. Have you investigated her thoroughly?"

He didn't believe that she would be able to get state valedictorian no matter how much she improved. It was too much of a stretch?

"We've heard about the investigation. Her grades are completely fine."
