"I will show you what's in my bag, but Mr. Sandford, what consequences would the accuser get if I prove I didn't steal anything?"
Penny's voice, upon asking, was innocent and sweet. But everyone momentarily blanked as that didn't cross their minds until now.
They were all so sure that Penny stole it with witnesses around. Moreover, everything was pointing in her direction.
Miss Sandford sighed because this was what she was thinking before Mr. Anderson barged in. Stealing was a big case and not something to be handled lightly. It was why she wanted Patricia to calm down, because If Patricia simply misplaced it, then she would also need to face the consequences of accusing an innocent student.
"Hah!" Mr. Anderson snorted. "Are you still saying you're innocent when all the evidence points. at you?"
"Mr. Anderson, the eyewitnesses only saw Patricia approach me to welcome me to the class. But no one saw me snatch anything from her. And also, that one eyewitness who saw me last Friday stay in the classroom didn't see me anywhere near Patricia's desk. Penny frowned while everyone knitted their brows,
The eyewitness scratched the back of his head and said, "Well, that's kinda true. I only saw her in the classroom, but she was just at her desk."
Even so, that also didn't clear up Penny's name.
"Are you saying you're not the thief, but someone else?!" Patricia grumbled. "Impossible! Why are you still haggling?! Just show us your bag or your desk if you're really innocent!"
"Penny, if you're innocent, then we'd know if it's not in there," Nina chimed in worriedly. "Moreover, you're wasting everyone's time here. We should be studying, but we cannot because you kept stalling" Hearing Nina's remarks, the student's faces darkened.
"That's true. We should be having our class now, but she's wasting everyone's time."
"Even if she stalls, did she think she will salvage the situation?"
"Goodness. How shameless."
"Well, I'm not the one wasting everyone's time. After all, I am being dragged through the mud. This is slander and even if I proved my name, the emotional distress of being accused may affect my studies. I'm sure the headmaster will not tolerate something like this If he heard that one of his students was accused wrongly, and the accuser got away from it without consequences. This time, Penny's tone grew firm as she gazed straight at Mr. Anderson. "Mr. Anderson, since you're a senior teacher, the headmaster surely trusts you to handle this case before it reaches the administration."
Mr. Anderson's face contorted as he assessed Penny from head to toe. 'She didn't have evidence
