"You''re spouting nonsense, using me without evidence. I didn''t add anything to the fire source, and I have no idea why it exploded." Upon realizing she was being falsely used, Ca was immediately filled with rage and roared in anger.
"Do you think you''re clean just because you said that? What proof do you have? Out of all the disciples in the assessment, only you have the power to increase the strength of the fire source. If it wasn''t you, then who could it be?" Thiago questioned Ca for an answer.
"It was her. I saw her sneaking up to the fire source. Also, during this whole thing, she, a participating examination deacon, didn''t seem to be in a hurry at all. It was clear she was up to no good." Upon seeing the situation, Adan also directed his usations at Ca.
At that moment, Ca was at a loss for words and flushed with frustration. Yet, she didn''t know how to retort.
She didn''t understand why the fire source suddenly erupted.
In the end, Ca started crying out of sheer injustice, Seeing Ca''s demeanor, Thiago and Adan were brimming with satisfaction.
Jared couldn''t help but shake his head. It''s like that saying. Those who wrong you often know better than you just how unjustly treated you are.
Upon seeing Thiago and Adan both ming Ca, Judd also voiced out his question. "Ca, did you do this?"
After all, among those disciples, only Ca had the capability to pull off something like that.
To Judd, it was possible that Ca was scared of losing in the end and sabotaged the assessment, ensuring that a winner couldn''t be determined.
Upon hearing Judd''s question, Ca looked at him with a sense of injustice and said, "You... You think I did it too?"
"Ca, I didn''t mean it that way. I was just asking. If it really wasn''t you, there''s no need to be afraid. I won''t let the sect punish you." Judd hastily spoke up.
"You jerk! Get lost. I didn''t do it at all," Ca roared in anger and was truly on the verge of a breakdown.
Observing Ca''s breakdown, Judd also grew somewhat fearful.
Rohan asked Ca, "If it wasn''t you, then who was it? The array I set up for the evaluation would never malfunction. Who exactly amplified the power of the fire source?"
At that point, Ca was in deep trouble, unable to prove herself innocent. She was utterly clueless about who was responsible, and furthermore, within the entire assessment, she was the only one capable of doing that.
Moreover, she was always seen with the inner court disciple examinees, so it wasn''t too big of a leap to assume she must have had an ulterior motive.
How do I exin myself? Ca merely wanted to take care of Jared, but she didn''t know things would turn out that way.
"It wasn''t me. It really wasn''t me! Do I have to die for you all to believe me?" Ca was driven to the brink of insanity and waspletely falling apart.
Jared finally understood why many people who were wronged to the point of despair wouldmit suicide. It was because they had truly reached their breaking point.
"Die, then! Once you''re dead, we''ll believe you," said Adan smugly.
If Camitted suicide, then it would be easy to ce the me squarely on her. It would be seen as her taking her own life due to her own wrongdoings.
In a state of utter despair, Ca let out a loud cry, abruptly striking her crown.
Jared, who was standing nearby, was quick to react. He immediately m stepped forward and firmly grabbed Ca''s wrist.
"Ca, you weren''t responsible. Why would you contemte suicide? By doing this, aren''t you just letting the culprit escape without punishment?" Jared spoke to Ca. N?velDrama.Org owns this.
Ca looked at Jared and asked, "No one believes me... Jared da youm e
believe me?
"I believe in you." Jared nodded in agreement.
Of course he believed her. After all, he was the one responsible.
Ca threw herself into Jared''s arms, bursting into tears.
That left Jared somewhat at a loss.
