Chapter 473

Mia glanced at the students, who appeared somewhat agitated, and

declared firmly, “Someone is deliberately spreading false rumors to damage my reputation.”

“There’s no need to explain. Similar incidents have been exposed before, and it was rumored that you

also have that man supporting you to handle such

matters.

“We all need these honorary credits to graduate, and since you have other options, please don’t

compete with us,‘ the students argued.

Suddenly, Dana rushed over. “What are you all doing? This incident has nothing to do with Mia.

Someone is just jealous and spreading malicious gossip.

“Mia’s talents are evident to everyone, and she has achieved everything based on her own abilities.”

A student snorted, “Heh, what skills and strengths are we talking about? I believe it’s her knack for

seducing men.”

“Indeed, please elaborate.”

Observing Dana’s supportive stance, Mia couldn’t help but feel touched.

Addressing the onlookers, she proposed, “Should we involve the authorities? Perhaps we should allow

them to conduct a thorough investigation into this situation.”

Upon hearing Mia suggest involving the police, Dana’s anxiety surged. Swiftly, she interjected,

“Actually, we could approach the college authorities directly to address this issue.”

“Exactly, let’s bring it to Mr. Shaw’s attention and let him take charge.”

Mia didn’t have any concerns about going. to Kennedy; she had no secrets to conceal.

On the other hand, Dana couldn’t shake off a sense of unease at the mere mention of involving

Kennedy.

After all, he possessed the authority to swiftly identify the individual who had reported the incident.

Nevertheless, since Dana had made the report anonymously through email, it shouldn’t be easy for her

identity to be

revealed.

Taking this into account, Dana breathed a sigh of relief.

Shortly after, Mia and the rest of the group made their way to Kennedy’s office.

After being informed about the incident. on the online forum, Kennedy was taken

aback.

He found it hard to believe that someone would accuse Mia of exploiting men for her benefit; it seemed

utterly absurd!

Addressing Mia with a reassuring tone, he said, “Mia, don’t worry. I will investigate this issue thoroughly

and ensure your innocence is upheld.”

Mia responded calmly, “Alright.‘

Observing Kennedy’s supportive

demeanor toward Mia, Dana couldn’t help but feel envious.

She deliberately spoke up, saying, “Look, Mia, didn’t I mention before that the college authorities would

surely offer you support?”

However, the nearby students grew discontented. “Mr. Shaw, you’re not showing bias toward Mia just

because of her connection to that man, are you?

That wouldn’t be fair to the rest of us.”

Another student argued, “Yeah, it’s totally unfair!”

Kennedy suddenly felt overwhelmed by the accusations. “Well then, what do you propose as a fair

resolution?”

“We demand fairness. Revoke Mia’s scholarship!”

“Yeah, Mia should also postpone her graduation. After taking such a long hiatus from her studies, what

entitles her to graduate so quickly?”

Upon hearing this, Mia felt compelled to speak out, “I’m willing to forfeit the scholarship, but given that

I’ve earned. enough credits, isn’t it fair and reasonable for me to graduate?”

“No, we disagree! Mia is only able to graduate because of her relationship with that wealthy tycoon.

“If regular people like us took a break from college for so long, we wouldn’t even have the opportunity

to return and continue our studies! Why should you still be eligible for the scholarship?”

Dana felt a hint of satisfaction from hearing these remarks. Finally, Mia seemed to be facing the

consequences of her actions.

After taking a moment to collect herself, Mia responded, “Who said I relied on improper relationships

with men?”

“Isn’t it a fact? What’s your connection with Mr. Barrett from the Barrett Group?”

“Mia, don’t try to pass it off as mere

friendship. You, a female college student, and a married billionaire–what sort of friendship could that

be?

“Isn’t it the classic sugar baby and daddy relationship? Do you honestly think we’re oblivious to it all?”
