“Xaviera, do you love money?”
Xaviera: ‘
What kind of question is that?
Do I seem like I am money-hungry?
What has gotten into Mr. Mamet today? To ask such a strange question.
“Not really.”
Xaviera answered truthfully, she didn’t lack money.
She suddenly realized why Caleb Mamet asked her, it must be because of Boyd Drew. If compared with Drew, she certainly wouldn’t be considered rich.
A gram of precious metals is worth 20 million dollars, and they are rarely found. The fact that Drew can hold such a precious resource in his possession, he’s already wealthier than a nation.
While Xaviera was contemplating, Caleb Mamet nonchalantly said: “I am richer than Drew.”
Xaviera was slightly surprised, but then realized.
So the reason Caleb Mamet asked her in such a roundabout way was to prove that he’s wealthier than Drew.
Caleb Mamet smiled faintly: “If you love money, you will certainly love me more.”
If Xaviera loved money, she would certainly like him more as he was wealthier than Drew.
Xaviera’s heart thumped.
Everything he said before was just leading up to this point, this was the essence of his words.
Back at the hotel, Xaviera’s mind was still echoing with Caleb Mamet’s words.
Xaviera wanted to ask Caleb Mamet directly about his intentions, but he went into his study after going home and fell asleep before she could ask him.
At about 7 in the morning, Xaviera was awakened by a phone call.
Xaviera sleepily answered the phone, her mind still in a state of confusion, “Hello…”
She could hear Principal Hayek’s voice trembling on the other end, “I’m sorry,
Xaviera, for waking you up.”
Xaviera slowly began to wake up, got out of bed and walked to the window, cleared her throat: “Principal, what’s the matter?”
Seeing that Xaviera didn’t lose her temper, Principal Hayek carefully approached, “Xaviera, if you’re not busy, could you please come to the school?”
Xaviera was supposed to rest today. Something must have happened for Principal Hayek to call her.
Before she could ask what happened, she heard an impatient voice from the phone- –
“Principal Hayek, don’t hold back for a cheat. Let her hurry to school. We must thoroughly investigate this matter and give other students a fair treatment.”
Xaviera’s eyes cooled.
Cheating?
Who’s the person speaking?
Principal Hayek was sweating profusely, “Mr. Walker, don’t jump to conclusions so soon. There is still an investigation…”
“What more needs to be investigated? The evidence is right in front of us, even teachers might not be able to score full points on this paper, how did she manage to do it?”
As Principal Hayek was about to explain, Xaviera coldly interrupted, “Principal,
I’ll be right there!”
Principal Hayek wanted to cry but had no tears.
He knew of Xaviera’s capabilities. Moreover, a person of such ability would not stoop to cheat.
If he made things difficult for Xaviera, would it make that young master feel like thev were tarqeting her?
It’s really hard being the principal of Libanan University!
After hanging up, Mr. Walker wore a solemn expression, “Principal Hayek, you are too kind. Is there a need to be so polite to a cheating student? She morally decays and deserves punishment!”
Principal Hayek sighed helplessly, “Mr. Jakeson Walker, until you have solid evidence, do not insult our school’s students at will. If this results in any negative impact, you will pay the price!”
Jakeson Walker frowned unpleasantly.
He is a renowned master translator, translating many famous literary works.
Upon seeing Xaviera’s paper, he was convinced she must have cheated.
The words and sentences on it were too sharp and accurate. Even Jakeson Walker was not sure he could achieve that level of accuracy.
Xaviera refused to admit that she cheated, and Principal Hayek, for the school’s reputation, didn’t want to believe it. He knew all that.
Madame Evans slammed the table and said sarcastically, “Principal, is there anything more to investigate? It must be Xaviera cheating! A country bumpkin doesn’t even know the English language, how on earth could she translate?!” If it was our Mag who achieved this score, it would make sense!”
Ever since Mag returned home, she’s been crying, and no one in the family could stop her, so Madame Evans was very discontented towards Xaviera.
She couldn’t let Mag lose face by competing with Jessi Whitman.
Moreover, a wretch who had lived in the countryside since she was a child could not possibly know English. In such a desolate place, could anyone possibly teach her English?
She absolutely cheated!
Principal Hayek felt slightly angry, “Madame Evans, Mag is your granddaughter, but so is Xaviera.. Now that we haven’t investigated the matter thoroughly, you’re sure that Xaviera cheated and you blame her together with
Mag, this is…”
