Hearing Danielle's words, Mona's grip on her glass cased, feeling the tension lift slightly.

Meanwhile, Molly's face flushed as she stammered, "I didn't copy anything! I'm not a plagiarist!"

Jasper, who'd taken favors from Molly, jumped in, "Come on, Danielle, she says she didn't do it. Can't you just give her a shot?" But after one sharp look from Danielle, he went silent.
