Mia was taken aback. “That’s impossible!
How could Dana have reported her?
Upon learning that her actions had been. revealed, Dana eximed anxiously, ” Mia, I didn’t report you.
I’m innocent. Someone must be trying to frame me!”
Mia nced at Dana, feeling uncertain. ” Could there have been a
misunderstanding?”
Dana hastily replied, “It’s surely a misunderstanding.”
Mia couldn’t bring herself to ept the fact that Dana had anonymously reported her. There had never
been any conflict. between them, and Dana had no motive to do such a thing!
Timothy’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Are you questioning my investigation?”
Mia was startled. She pressed her lips
together and responded, “Maybe Dana is being framed?”
Dana was on the brink of tears. “Mia, that has to be it. I truly have no reason to report you.”
At that moment, Timothy turned his gaze toward Kennedy. “Present the evidence.”
Kennedy unlocked his phone and examined it, his expression turning uneasy. “Dana, I have
screenshots of the report that trace back to your IP address. How do you justify this?”
Mia nced at Kennedy’s phone screen and observed the incriminating evidence.
She turned to Dana, her disbelief evident. “What could possibly motivate you to do something like
this?”
Dana swiftly grasped Mia’s hand,
pleading, “Mia, those photos were all
manipted. I swear it wasn’t me.
Please, consider it. I have no motive to engage in such actions.”
Mia’s thoughts were in turmoil. She
really didn’t want to ept that Dana could be the anonymous reporter.
Yet, at the same time, Timothy had no apparent motive to discredit Dana either.
Despite harboring some resentment toward him, Mia couldn’t deny his capabilities.
So, there remained only one logical exnation.

“Yes, exactly, Mia. I was framed.
Someone must have deliberately set me up!”
Mia responded, “Very well, if that’s the situation, then I’m determined to uncover the mastermind behind

a few steps, Dana adamantly refused to budge.
Turning to her, Mia inquired, “What’s the matter, Dana?”
With a heavy thud, Dana sank to her knees, admitting, “I’m sorry, Mia. It’s all my fault. I allowed my
jealousy to
consume me, leading me to resort to such desperate measures to undermine you.”
Hearing Dana’s confession, Mia took a deep breath. She hadn’t anticipated the truth to unfold in this
manner.
She looked at Dana, who knelt on the ground before her. “But I never wronged you, did I? Was it all
because of jealousy that you wanted to ruin me?”
“Indeed, I was foolish. Despite both of using from orphanages, I couldn’t bear to see you surpass
me, especially with your connections to such remarkable
men.
“My envy blinded me, leading me down this path. Mia, please find it in your heart to forgive me. You’re
my only friend here.
Mia pushed Dana’s hand away. “Now I understand why you have no friends in college. No one wants to
be associated with a deceitful person like you.”
With that, she turned and swiftly exited the office.
Timothy exchanged nces with Kennedy. “You know what needs to be done, right?”
Kennedy nodded firmly. “Mr. Barrett, we will ensure that the appropriate disciplinary actions are carried
out in line. with the university’s policies.”
Dana felt overwhelmed by despair, but after wiping away her tears, she regained herposure and
stood up.
She felt a sense of reassurance, especially knowing that Maya had her back. After all, Maya had
promised to assist her.
