Lemira's expression was frosty as ice, "Get it straight, it was you who teamed up with Jackson to screwover. You were the perpetrator all along! The one who's cursed here is you, not me!" "Lemira, this is your fault! Why didn't you helpout from the beginning?" "Why should I have helped you? Besides, now that Jackson's been nabbed, all those videos and photos are going to get deleted. They never even leaked. It's your own stupid fault. Who else do you have to blame?" Clara was on the verge of a breakdown, suddenly realizing she had misspoken, inadvertently leading the bltowards Lemira. Otherwise, Lemira wouldn't have spilled the beans.
The teacher looked at Clara, "How do you explain this?" Clara trembled with fear, "It wasn't me, wasn't me, it had nothing to do with me!" "But last night, a lot of students overheard your conversation with Jackson. You planned this with Jackson!" "Clara, cwith us. We need to get to the bottom of this, or you're heading to the police station!" Clara burst into tears, hiding under her bed covers and not moving an inch, refusing to go with the teachers. The teachers exchanged glances, at a loss for words at Clara's behavior but hesitant to force her. Lemira sneered, "Waiting for the police to take your statement will end the same. After all, you and Jackson were in cahoots. I'll see to it that you face legal consequences!" Hearing this, Clara broke down, "I'm a victim too, why should I be punished?" The teacher tried to reason, "Clara, if you're a victim, then tell us everything clearly. That way, we can assist you with the police. Otherwise, we'll have to call your parents to bail you out." "I can't let my parents find out, they'd hitto death!" The mention of involving her parents sent Clara into an instant panic. Eventually, Clara reluctantly left with the teachers.

"I know, Clara brought this upon herself." As things stood, Janice felt there was nothing more to be done. Clara's fate today was of her own making. Moreover, so many had seen Clara running out and confronting Jackson last night. If Clara had kept silent, maybe she could have bluffed her way through.
If Lemira didn't press charges against Clara, the school would likely have wanted to downplay the whole ordeal. Clara had been foolish and selfish. Now, no one could help her.
With no classes in the morning, Lemira opened her laptop to sort through the evidence she had gathered from Jackson.
It included Jackson taking kickbacks, misappropriating club funds, and even bribery in competitions and assessments.
However, there was no evidence of laundering money for the Sinclairs. It seemed Jackson had caught wind of the girl reporting him and cleared all incriminating evidence.
All Lemira found was a financial report related to the Sinclairs' investment in the team, but it wasn't solid evidence.

Tsk, but she had told the lawyer she had proof, enough to make Jackson sweat. The Sinclairs definitely would silence Jackson to nip the problem in the bud! Lemira submitted the evidence, reporting Jackson for his negligence as the team captain. In the

After class, the supervisor messaged Lemira. [Cto the office after class.]
Lemira guessed it was about her reporting Jackson. She had made the report under her own name, making no attempt to hide. Janice looked at Lemira, "Do you needto cwith you to testify?" "No need, the evidence is enough. Could you helptake my books back?"
