Chapter 1087 - Chapter 1087 Chapter 1087 You Are the Catalyst

Chapter 1087: Chapter 1087: You Are the Catalyst Chapter 1087: Chapter 1087: You Are the Catalyst Xaviera Evans spoke softly, her tone indifferent: “Madam Rome, did you meet someone on your way to school? Did someone advise you to take this approach? After all, saying this would firmly pin the label of a mistress on me, and Larry Rome would be the innocent man who has been seduced by a mistress. He did nothing wrong from beginning to end, right?”

“As long as it’s confirmed that I’m the third party, it would cover up the fact that Larry Rome was divorced, and it would protect Larry Rome’s reputation. So, who came up with this brilliant plan for you?”

With a hint of icy laughter in her eyes, Xaviera took two steps forward and casually asked, “Madam Rome, who did you meet before coming to the headmaster’s office?”

“If Madam Rome tells me, I can ask Miss Webster to leave your Rome family with a bit of dignity, and not spread Larry Rome’s scandalous deeds anymore. Besides, I don’t think Mr. Webster would let Larry Rome off the hook if he knew about Larry’s illegitimate child.”

Doreen Yuan said confidently, “That’s right. I can let it go and not pick a fight with your Rome family for the sake of Xaviera. From now on, we’ll mind our own business, owing nothing to each other. But if you don’t cooperate, we’ll see how angry and disgusted Larry Rome has made me, and I’ll let your Rome family taste the same. By then, it’ll be too late for regrets. So, tell Xaviera now who told you these things!”

After listening, Madam Rome unconsciously looked up at Winifred Drew.

Winifred stood at the door, her heart skipping a beat, and quickly retreated a few steps. Her friend next to her saw her panic and curiously asked, “Winifred, what’s wrong?”

Winifred’s uneasiness and nervousness grew stronger, and at this moment, all she wanted was to escape. She had only taken a few steps when a cold voice came from behind her.

Xaviera casually asked, “Miss Drew, where are you going?”

Everyone’s eyes fell on Winifred instantly, her forehead dotted with fine sweat and her eyes filled with fear, her body trembling uncontrollably.

She turned around and forced down the trembling in her voice, “Miss Evans, this matter has nothing to do with me. Don’t bite indiscriminately!”

Xaviera’s sharp gaze locked onto her, her expression half-mocking, “Miss Drew, I was just asking where you were going. I didn’t say this had anything to do with you. You’re the one who said that yourself. Could it be that you’re feeling guilty?”

The suspicious gazes of the crowd were fixed upon her. Xaviera indeed only asked where she was going, but Winifred’s response was irrelevant, insisting that she had nothing to do with the matter– clearly a sign of guilt. The people present also realized that she was getting nervous. If it wasn’t her, why would she be nervous? Moreover, everyone clearly saw that Madam Rome had just looked at Winifred, so the person who advised Madam Rome was Winifred Drew.

Winifred clenched her fists nervously, her pupils contracted sharply, but she still insisted, “I’m not feeling guilty! Miss Evans, don’t falsely accuse innocent people!”

“Heh!” Xaviera scoffed, “I falsely accused you? You know very well who deliberately met with Madam Rome before she went to the headmaster’s office and said a few words to her, Miss Drew.”

Winifred’s face darkened, coldly admitting, “Yes! I admit that I happened to run into Madam Rome today, but that was just a coincidence. The Drew family and the Rome family have always been acquainted. As a junior, am I not allowed to chat casually with a familiar elder?”

“Seeing Madam Rome at school, it would have been impolite not to greet her. I was just doing what a younger person should do. Miss Evans, why do you insist that I instigated Madam Rome to act against you?”

Xaviera raised her eyebrows, “Miss Drew, you said that your involvement in the last calligraphy contest was unrelated, too. It seems that all these incidents had nothing to do with you, but in reality, you were the fuse.”

Only then did everyone remember. After the cheating incident was cleared up, Joan Lentz always claimed that he was misled by Winifred Drew. However, Winifred had denied it vehemently, so everyone thought it was unlikely. Winifred had only transferred to the school recently, so why would she want to frame Xaviera?

Furthermore, Joan Lentz only talked about it but provided no substantial evidence. No one could prove that Joan Lentz had been incited by Winifred Drew to publicly expose Xaviera’s cheating.

Most of the students didn’t pay attention to the matter, but the teachers of the Design Department knew very well that on the surface, the incident had nothing to do with Winifred, but if it wasn’t her, how come Joan Lentz suddenly went to see Xaviera’s work?

As for the calligraphy contest, Winifred insisted that she was not involved, and now she had met with Madam Rome beforehand, yet she still denied it.
