Chapter 46

Brad might not have the same prowess as Liam did at his peak, but it was widely acknowledged that Liam’s influence had waned, and now, Brad was the one calling the shots. He stood at the helm of the Hall family.

Now, Sean boldly called Brad a lapdog, silencing everyone present. They wondered if Sean was too confident or maybe he just cared too much about Emma.

Kate was quick to shift the blame to Emma, but Sean wouldn’t allow it to happen. He fixed his gaze on Kate and challenged her, “Really? You claim she plagiarized. Where’s your proof?”

Caught off guard, Kate stumbled over her words. “I… I don’t have any! But I’m sure it’s beyond her capabilities. I’m her teacher. Shouldn’t! know?”

Just then, Emma stepped forward, holding a voice recorder. “You might not have proof of me cheating, but I have proof of your corruption.” With everyone’s eyes on her, she played the recording of Kate’s private conversation with her earlier.

“You’re compromising fairness and ethics over personal dislike? People like you shouldn’t be in charge of anything at Vark College.” Emma’s voice sounded.

“Hold on. If you want your grade changed, I can give you a chance. Just give me your ticket to Starry’s concert,” came Kate’s sly voice.

The room erupted in gasps. People stared at Kate in disbelief, her face cycling from pale to a flushed red with anger.

The recording didn’t stop there.

“You think I’d trade the ticket for my grade? You’re delusional.” It was Emma’s voice.

“A zero in this school means a call to the parents, I know you dread dealing with your family the most,” came Kate’s retort. “Fine, keep your ticket. But remember, you defied your teacher and scored zero–don’t expect me to show you mercy when you get expelled.”

“Stop it! Turn it off!” Kate couldn’t bear it any longer and blurted out in her defense. “This recording is fake, Emma, you’re framing me!”

“Is that so?” Emma retorted with a smirk. “Miss Johnson, guess what? I also have a video.”
