Corinne nodded. “Okay. I’m heading there now.”

After ending the call, she got up from the table and bid farewell to the reporters. She then walked off the stage and

disappeared from their sight.

“Miss Corinne, why are you leaving so fast? Who called you? Was it Mister Jeremy?” asked a relentless reporter.

Corinne did not even turn around and simply walked away.

…

Meanwhile, back at the Holdens’ mansion.

Greg and Pamela watched the live broadcast till the end, and both of them sighed with relief after that.

Pamela was rather proud of how Corinne handled the whole thing. She nudged Greg, saying, “What did I say, huh?

Corinne’s not the type of person who’d cheat her way into the University of New Capital City. It was so obvious

someone was trying to make her look like a bad guy in front of us, and only an old fool like you will believe an

outsider over your granddaughter-in-law!”

Greg knew he was wrong, but his pride would not let him admit it. “Hmph! Of all the people in the world, why did

she get framed and not the others? I’ll tell you why! It’s ’cause there’s something really wrong with her character,

and she must’ve made many enemies outside.”

Pamela glared at Greg. “How you’re acting now is the epitome of victim-blaming. I have very good judgment when

it comes to people’s character, and what I can tell you is, Corinne is one of the good ones. And don’t you dare treat

her rudely again, or I’ll divorce you.”

Greg was stunned. He never thought he would hear the word ‘divorce’ coming out of Pamela. After all, who would

divorce at their age?

“Are you seriously threatening me? Well, two can play that game! You don’t need to wait till then to divorce me

’cause I’m divorcing you today!”

Pamela stood up angrily. “Fine! Let’s file our divorce at the courthouse now!”

At that point, even if Greg regretted his words, he could not think up of a way to turn things around. He thought

about what he could do when he suddenly clutched his chest as though he was having a heart attack.

“Argh! My chest hurts. Medicine… I need my medicine…”

Seeing this, Pamela started to panic. She went up to support him while screaming, “Someone, help! Mister Greg is

having a heart attack! Get me his medicine!”

Hearing this, Greg smiled smugly while he continued to be unconscious.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the Riveras’ mansion was thick with tension.

Phoebe and Anya were furious to see Corinne coming out as the victor in both the competition and in saving her

reputation, while Cedric and Beatrice looked relaxed.

“What did I say? Corinne must be the one telling the truth. I’m not surprised that all the rumors spread by Josephine

and her mother are untrue!” said Cedric.

Beatrice glanced at Phoebe and Anya. “I couldn’t agree more. And you know what’s the worst part? Josephine and

her mother are only pawns in someone else’s game. Which means someone else must’ve instigated the whole

thing.”

Phoebe knew what Beatrice was hinting at, but she dared not say anything.

Anya knew she was completely screwed, but she did not want to give up without putting up a last struggle.

“Grandpa, Grandma, you shouldn’t fall for Corinne’s trick. She must’ve come prepared for the retest since she

didn’t even think twice about suggesting it.”

Cedric scoffed angrily. “Are you trying to say Corinne cheated on the test? Just how did she manage to pull that off

when there were so many cameras pointing at her? I was about to ask whether you or your mother stole the test

paper from me and gave it to Josephine and her mother!”
