Chapter 398

After finishing the demonstration, one of the students spoke up. Isabelle received a signal and immediately handed the complaints and reports to Selene.

“Ms. Wilson, look, this is what National Medical School has received in the past few days since Ophelia came in. The outside world is very dissatisfied with us for admitting a cheating student so openly, and they have already started questioning our standards…”

“So, did you find any evidence of Ophelia cheating?” The old man’s sharp gaze fixed on Isabelle.

Isabelle’s expression slightly froze. She lowered her eyes and said, “Ophelia’s relationship with Mr. Winford is unusual. In order to avoid angering Mr. Winford, we didn’t go looking for evidence. We let her leave without revealing anything or making a big fuss, which can be considered as giving Mr. Winford some face.”

She said it cleverly, not because there was no evidence, but to save face for Ophelia, so she didn’t go to look for it! In any case, whether there was evidence or not, Ophelia cheating is a fact now!

Ophelia sneered and said, “So you mean she still has to thank the other person?”

However, she didn’t rush to speak. With Selene here, where did she need to go fight on her own?

Sure enough, Selene was very dissatisfied with Isabelle’s statement, and she said, “So you just don’t have any evidence? You say Ophelia cheats and kick her out without evidence? As the dean, how come I don’t know when National Medical School has this rule?!”

Selene used to greatly admire Isabelle, but the way this matter was handled has left her somewhat disappointed.

Some sharp eyes stared at Isabelle. “Your actions like this don’t make me think that you are considering Ophelia’s well-being, but rather make me feel that you are afraid of her strength and trying to get rid of her by putting your own interests first!”

Selene spoke without any concealment, and as soon as she finished speaking, Isabelle couldn’t control her change in facial expression. Others were also stunned, not expecting Selene to speak so sharply, right in front of so many people, without leaving any face for Isabelle!

You should know that Selene used to admire Isabelle before, but now she is saying such things about her. Subconsciously, everyone couldn’t help but take a glance at Ophelia, who was leisurely and seemingly unconcerned, as if watching a spectacle.

It seems that Selene valued Ophelia’s appearance a lot, as she blamed and questioned Isabelle for her sake…

Isabelle didn’t expect Selene to hit the nail on the head with her words. Her palms were slightly sweaty. “Ms. Wilson, I didn’t have such thoughts…”

Wade also hurriedly defended the student. “Ms. Wilson, don’t you know what kind of person Isabelle is? With her abilities, how could she possibly be afraid of a student who just entered National Medical School!”

There was no hiding the disdain for Ophelia in the tone.

Selene sternly said, “I don’t care what she was thinking. I only saw her actions and speculated based on her actions!”

Wade and his students were suddenly speechless. They were still talking, but Selene had no interest in paying attention to their explanations. Her gaze had already shifted to Ophelia.

“Are you Ophelia?” Selene’s tone suddenly softened as she looked Ophelia up and down, observing this composed and clear-eyed girl. Satisfied, she nodded.

“I was, Ms. Wilson, hello,” Ophelia straightened up from the leaning table and politely responded.

She had already heard of Selene’s reputation before and had respected this upright old man. Now, seeing that he was deliberately defending her and quickly eliminating Wade and his students with just a few words, her impression of him instantly improved.
