Chapter 86
What a shameless woman fale is, flirting with other guys while confessing to Wyatt. Thankfully, Wyatt didn’t say yes to a woman like her who played with people’s Terlings like that.
Meanwhile, on the way to the lab building, Rhett and Lama weren’t any better, either. One was a loser, while the other was just a bumpkin who only got a spot on
the team thanks to him.
They went even in such a niche major, too. Where did they even get the confidence to challenge his team? They were completely overestimating themselves! Wyatt withdrew his gaze and turned around as he shoved the group of people up the stairs.
Meanwhile, Mia was pacing in the lab when Wyatt pushed open the door to Howell’s office. She had finally managed to get rid of Russell and Kevin before quickly slipping into the bathroom to call the paid trolls who had worked for her.
Thankfully, she had the foresight to use the bummer phone instead of her usual phone when contacting th

There was no way they could trace the plagiarism back to her. After all, there was no evidence. She had wiped out all traces from ber laptop. The only thing was that those damn paid trolls had cost her 50 thousand dollars. That was two months of her living expense She was d

That broke Luna probably didn’t even have 100 thousand dollars for the entire semester.
Rhett got a call from the Student Affairs Office that afternoon.
“Mr. Osbome says they’ve got the results from the investigation, but..” He looked at Luna. “It looks like they couldn’t tie anything back to Mia. The plagiarism Issue is probably going to be left unresolved.”
Lura had expected the outcome. After all, Mia wasn’t dumb. There was no way she could leave behind the evidence that could be traced back to her.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gotten away with stealing so much of her academic work without leaving a clue in her past life.
The screen–monitoring spyware on her laptop would most likely be traced back to a backer. However, it was likely impossible to find out who the hacker was unless she filed a police repom.
However, it was just an ordinary thesis paper. Wilson wouldn’t be the only one criticizing her if she went to the police over this. The school might even blame her for making a fuss. After all, elite schools couldn’t afford a public scandal,
“It’s okay.” Luna shook her head. “It’s enough to make it public that my laptop was being hacked, that my paper was leaked, and someone spread obscene rumors about me online!=
Rhett modded. “Did you know from the beginning there wouldn’t be a resolution? Did you stir this up to prevent others from using these two things against you in the future?
“Now that the paid trolls had been caught and the spyware incident had been exposed, no one could attack you with these two incidents again. Am I right?” “Exactly!” She nodded. “If I’m going to join Professor Wilder’s team, I want to come in with a clean slate without bringing a bunch of unnecessary troubles, “Besides, I did want to mess with Mia for a bit through this matter. It doesn’t matter if we find proof of plagiarisin or not. She’ll have a hard time clearing her name once the spyware incident is out
“People are complicated. The bit of suspicion might not mean much now, but that doesn’t mean it won’t someday. They’ll remember what happened today as more simalar incidents crop up.”
Rhett’s eyes darkened as he tied his gaze intently on hers. “How at

“Haven’t you heard that people tend to repeat the same behavior? Luna wasn’t the least bit affected by the investigation’s outcome. She just smiled and turned around to get on withher work
