Alice had already made preparations to confront them.
Menu
She had investigated and found out what the journalism club president was doing. Collecting evidence was simple for her.
Also, the club had quietly allowed this for a long time.
Everyone knew, but as students, they couldn''tpete with the journalism club. To avoid nder, they had to pay.
The club members didn''t dare bother wealthy students.
When Alice spoke, the journalism club president''s face showed shock and he got very nervous. Alice spoke coldly, “I already made things clear. If you keep spreading lies, I won''t hold back." The student council president hurried to intervene, “If your journalism club reported wrong information, you must apologize to Alice."
The journalism club president finally understood the gravity.“Alice, I was wrong. I''ll remove the post and clear things up."
“Okay, don''t spread false rumors to nder people again, or you''ll face consequences." Words could hurt deeply without leaving a mark.
He felt too embarrassed to talk, but if Alice revealed this issue, he''d face severe trouble. He didn''t want to get expelled.

hadn''t given me the photos and said you saw Alice hugging an old man in a fancy car, I wouldn''t have written that."
Alice asked the female student, “Do you realize that taking photos without permission and spreading lies is against thew?"
"I don''t like you, so what? You act all high and mighty, but you''re just a slut who got ahead by using men. Today, you were on stage talking about your ‘sess.'' You should be talking about sleeping with old men
instead."
When the female student stopped talking, nearby students

started whispering.
He nced at Drake.“Is this how your school treats an exceptional girl? She has to face vicious lies and nder?"
Jack had been watching this unfold.
From the discussions, he understood the situation and was furious,
Drake''s face nched with fear, and he hastily said, “I''ll fully investigate this. Alice, a top SAT scorer and consistently excellent student, is well-known for her achievements among teachers and students."
"Many students here excel. If they''re all isted and attacked for being outstanding, who will dare to aim for excellence?"
“After Jack spoke, Drake''s face kept shifting in color. He faced the journalism club president,

saying, “Did you write those posts and spread lies about Alice?"
“Mr. Cousy, I already talked to Alice. I didn''t spread lies."

The female student stood up angrily."It''s not a rumor. Can Alice exin how she got the fancy car and expensive stuff?"
Jack intervened, “I can rify. That day, I was the one who drove her home. There''s been a lot happening at thepany, and she had to stayte."
The female student was stunned. “You''re lying! You''re just trying to cover for Alice!" Drake scolded her sharply, “Stop talking nonsense. Alice is a technically gifted person recognized in New York. Who are you to question her?"
Drake hadn''t fully grasped Alice''s exceptional qualities. Having her as a future role model would be immensely beneficial for Harvard University.
Jack looked at Drake.“Mr. Cousy, I expect you to handle this situation appropriately.”
“Mr. Wilson, you can be sure I''ll address it.''
Jack nodded, then left with his group.
Drake paused briefly, turning to the student council president and saying, “Round up everyone who participated in spreading those rumors in the posts. This incident must be dealt with severely to uphold the school''s discipline. It''s utterly intolerable."
With that said, Drake rushed to catch up with Jack.
The journalism club president spoke nervously, “What should we do now? I didn''t mean any harm. I don''t want to face disciplinary action, let alone get expelled
"Who told you to talk like that in front of Mr. Cousy? Alice is self-made; she doesn''t depend on others."
The student council president felt a bit trapped and reflexively nced at Alice beside him.
At this moment, the only person who could resolve the situation was Alice.
Mary, however, stepped forward, positioning herself in front of Alice."Alice came here with good intentions to clear things up, but you guys were unappreciative and chose to escte this. Now you''re facing the consequences
of your own actions. You have iting.”
“Right! They''re just envious of how exceptional Alice is and can only use dirty tricks."
Lana took the initiative to link arms with Alice.“Let''s go, there''s no point in wasting words on them."
Alice remained silent and went along.
The female student was now frightened too."What should we do? I don''t want to face discipline either." “Are you scared now? Why did you say those things in front of Mr. Cousy, implicating all of us? It''s your fault; you provided the photos and spread the rumors. You should take full responsibility."
The female student started crying out of fear.
What should she do now?
Meanwhile, Alice and her friends went outside.

Many students gathered and said, "Alice, you''re amazing."
“Alice, are you really a shareholder in Maple Company? Will you be financially free when yourpany goes public?"
Alice nced at the students around her. “Starting a business is risky. No one knows what will happen.”
Max, noticing Alice with her ssmates, felt jealous.“Julia, without the Wilson family''s support, would Alice''s business have been this easy? She still depends on
"Depending on men can be a skill too."
men."
Julia felt uneasy. She knew a secret that would only work if told at the right time.
Today, she chose to let Alice go.
After talking to the curious students briefly, the student council president came to Alice.“Alice, you have a
school interview to go to."
"Okay, I''ll go now."
As Alice followed, she saw Jack talking with some business owners.
He leaned back in his chair, his lips slightly curved, almost smiling, but his eyes were cold. Alice knew that
Jack was just socializing with them.
When she entered, Jack looked at her.
As he looked up, everyone else did too, focusing on Alice.
The student council president went to Alice."Come this way. Follow me and stay calm
Alice smiled and followed him.
However, Jack looked at Alice''s smile, furrowed his brows, and felt a bit uneasy. Seeing the young boy next to Alice, admiring her, made Jack feel a strange irritation, Someone next to him saw Jack staring at Alice.
After her interview, the middle-aged man told Alice, "Alice,e and talk with us for a while." Alice didn''t like
his tone, but she went over anyway.
"Sit next to Mr. Wilson."
