The young girl stood there quietly, her face showing no emotion, her gaze fixed on the torn book on the ground. Who was the real victim here?

“Who tore this?”

Ben averted his gaze. 𝑓𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸𝑒𝑏𝘯𝑜𝑣𝑒𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Elizabeth explained, “He did.”

Frank wished he could grab Ben by the ear, “Why on earth would you tear

Elizabeth’s book?” “She threw mine first.’

Ben felt wronged. Would he have torn a book it Elizabeth hadn’t thrown his first?

“First off, he didn’t have any evidence to show I was the one who threw the book. He just assumed it was me and ripped my book. That’s not right.”

“Given the gravity of the situation, we need to call the parents. Mr. Berwick, call Ben’s parents immediately and ask them to come to the school.”

“Such behavior cannot be tolerated. There must be a serious warning and punishment.”

Elizabeth firmly instructed Frank.

Frank was speechless.

Wait a minute, wasn’t he a teacher?

Why did he feel as if Elizabeth was the one in charge?

And why was he subconsciously reaching for his phone to make the call?

Ben was unhappy, “It’s such a small matter. Why call the parents?”

Frank massaged his temples, “Fine, let’s call both sets of parents.”

Elizabeth had no objections.

Not daring to inform his parents of the situation, for they wouldn’t believe him due to his habitual mischief, Ben opted to call a distant cousin for help.

Although Elizabeth was part of the Wilson family, his cousin had some influence. They weren’t close until this summer when they bonded over a video game.

Even if someone from the Wilson family showed up, he wouldn’t be afraid. While waiting for the parents, Frank tried to understand the sequence of events.

“So, you found your book in the trash, and you assumed Elizabeth did it, right?”

Ben explained, “Who else could it be? Besides, she disappeared during gym class and no one can vouch for her.’

Frank took a moment, then asked Elizabeth, “What’s your side?”

“I didn’t do it,” Elizabeth’s voice was neutral, “I was sleeping.”

Now, Frank was in a dilemma.

There was no evidence proving that Elizabeth was guilty, but also none proving her innocence.

All her classmates had alibis, and with her disappearing for half the class without anyone verifying she was resting, how could he conclude?

Could it be…

Could books just fly into trash bins?

He couldn’t mess this up; the Wilson family was influential, and Ben’s parents were notorious for making a fuss. Could this be the end of his career?

When Frank called the parents, he couldn’t get through to Sir and Lady Wilson and reached Jack instead.

Jack, thinking some grave incident had occurred involving Elizabeth, was ready to rush over. Just as he was about to leave, he saw a message from Linda saying Elizabeth had cheated.

The message read that Elizabeth cheated in the exam and she didn’t know what to do.

Jack was flabbergasted. Was Elizabeth called in for cheating?

He felt a mix of disappointment, anger, embarrassment, and a hint of ‘I knew it.’

He was too embarrassed to show up, but he couldn’t avoid it.

Upon arriving at the office, before Frank could speak, Jack hastily apologized, “Mr. Berwick, I’m sorry. Elizabeth was wrong, and we’ll ensure this doesn’t happen again. Please give her one more chance, and I’ll make sure she focuses on her studies and doesn’t cheat again.”

“Huh?”

Frank looked puzzled and after a moment hastily corrected, “Elizabeth didn’t cheat. It was a misunderstanding. It’s been cleared up.” Jack stared at Frank in astonishment..
