Chapter 156
Marie had been living abroad and had only recently returned. She was unaware of the storm Emma had caused online or Emma’s various identities.
Marie thought that Emma was just an ordinary girl from a poor family with good sports.
Not long after, many people came to the office.
David was so scared when he saw the people outside the window that his mouth dropped open!
The principal, vice principal, secretary, grade manager, and sports director – all the senior leaders of the schools were present.
The man in the front was standing tall, dressed in a uniform, and exuded a powerful presence.
Even though David didn’t know him, he could still sense the intense pressure.
He entered the room and stood before Emma in his black boots, declaring, “Emma, I am here.” Ads by PubFuture
Marie was shocked to see such a handsome man with many badges, which was rare in the country.
When Richard learned that Emma had been treated unfairly, he appeared slightly unhappy but remained patient. “These are the managers from Charon Military School. Explain what happened that day to them. They will ensure you receive justice!”
Emma quickly looked at those people.
Charon Military School had a reputation for its strict culture, where underhanded methods were not allowed. The people brought by her uncle all held positions of authority in the school.
David was also intrigued. So Emma shared the entire story with him. Richard’s face grew darker and more ominous as he listened intently. When Emma finished speaking, he said with a cold expression, “Guys, did you hear all of that? I guess you know what to do and how to do it.”
Richard was initially concerned that if his relationship with Emma was revealed, it would cause her unnecessary
trouble. However, his efforts to keep it hidden had actually led to Emma being almost bullied by others.
As an uncle, he would never tolerate Emma suffering a loss in his own territory!
“Don’t worry, Mr. Rivera. We will investigate this matter!” one of the leaders said.
“Yes, we’ll investigate thoroughly!” another added. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

David immediately felt guilty when he heard that he would bear the consequences.
He had to find a report on the substance analysis of the wooden bridge that day.
Under pressure, he opened an encrypted file on the computer. The document revealed that a special material was coated on the wooden bridge. This colorless and odorless paint was invisible from the outside. It would not only stick sand to the surface but also make the metal very slippery.
“So someone did tamper with the wooden bridge!” Ads by PubFuture
Emma remembered the match that day. The wooden bridge was not very slippery when she first crossed it, but she almost fell on the way back. It seemed like someone had deliberately scattered sand on the bridge between
the two times she crossed it.
She frowned. “I demand access to the CCTV footage from that day!”
Marie reassured Emma, “Don’t panic! There was a lot of sand under the obstacles during the competition that day.
Maybe it was from your shoes.”
Emma smiled coldly at Marie. “Oh? We’ll see after checking the video.”
“You!”
From Marie’s reaction, Emma knew that her guess was more or less correct.
Marie was Riley’s friend and classmate. She was willing to play dirty to help Riley win the championship.
David didn’t make a move, but Richard personally said, “Get the video immediately!”
David couldn’t help but find the video with his trembling hands.
Marie, Emma, and Riley were all competing in the first group on the screen.
Besides Riley and Emma, the others were lagging far behind, so Emma did not notice them.
The surveillance footage showed that Marie intentionally ran in the wrong direction and paused on Emma’s bridge
for a while.
Richard enlarged the picture on the camera using the mouse, but the image was still not clear under the sunlight.
When he adjusted the contrast and brightness of the pictures using computer graphics software, the screen suddenly revealed that Marie had left behind an object that wasn’t there when she crossed the wooden bridge!
Richard compared the two pictures.

Before Marie passed, the color blocks on the single–plank bridge were uniform. After she passed by, a shadow appeared on the wooden bridge!
Despite the low pixel quality, it was evident that this spot was exactly where Emma fell on the way back. The colored blocks and liquids were indeed left by Marie.
Emma almost fell later because the sand stuck to Marie’s shoes making the wooden bridge slippery.
At this moment, Richard’s face was extremely gloomy. His eyes were like cold stars as he stared coldly at Marie. “Well, how do you explain that?”
Marie shivered. “I… I don’t know!”
“You don’t? Then fire her! Publicize it to the entire society!” Richard said.
“No, no!” Marie panicked.
If it was made public, it wouldn’t just be a matter of being expelled. She would bring shame to her entire family. Marie tried her best to deny it.
David also panicked and begged for mercy while trembling. “I didn’t investigate this matter well. Please forgive
me! Give me another chance!”
Before Richard could say anything, the principal spoke. “Such behavior is not allowed here. You are fired too.”
Marie almost fainted on the spot.
However, since the principal had given the order, there was no room for negotiation!
That afternoon, Charon broadcasted the matter to the entire school and asked everyone to take this as a warning.
During the free time, there was a lot of discussion in the school.
Rumors were circulating that Marie’s relationship with David had upset Emma, so Emma reached out to a big shot who expelled Marie. The big shot was described as handsome and authoritative.
Now, everyone was very curious about Emma’s true identity.
“Marie is too bold. She even dares to play tricks during the monthly exam!” a student murmured.
But why did she do that? Even if Emma fell, she wouldn’t be able to get first place!” another student asked.
“Emma is amazing. She broke the record after being tricked!” a student exclaimed.
“Wait, you forgot something important! Even if Marie can’t win, she’s Riley’s best friend. If Emma slips up, Riley will

come in first place! So…”
Riley, who was walking in the crowd, suddenly heard this sentence. Her eyes became grim.
