Chapter 56 Someone's Got to Be Taught a Lesson
After hearing the principal's words, Susanna suddenly felt uneasy.
She looked at Aaron standing there, with a hint of rejection in her eyes.
Finally, Aaron calmly replied, "No need."
Susanna breathed a sigh of relief and saw the principal take Aaron to the middle seat in the first row. It was clear that he held a special position.
She didn't understand why Aaron, a busy man, came here.
But soon she would find out why.
Because when she stood on stage, Aaron, as the provider of the scholarship, personally presented the award to the winning student.
Susanna watched as the arrogant man in a suit walked towards her.
Aaron held the award certificate in his hand, looked down at her, and said, "Keep up the good work."
Susanna was speechless.
She forced a smile, took the certificate from his hand, and really wanted to smash it on his face.
The award ceremony quickly ended, and Susanna left the lecture hall without looking back.
As long as she walked fast, trouble wouldn't catch up with her.
Just now, the principal was still very eager for her to talk to Aaron. Maybe he would invite her to a dinner later, but she didn't want to go.
Sure enough, before she returned to the study room, she received a phone call from her advisor.
But she didn't answer.
In the evening, Susanna returned the advisor's call, "Sorry, I had my phone on silent in the study room and didn't see your call."
"It's alright. The principal wanted you to have dinner, considering the VIP visit today. But it's not necessary now."
Susanna knew it would be like this, luckily she was clever.
After hanging up the phone, she returned to her villa and saw Aaron sitting on the couch wearing casual clothes, with a tablet in his hand.
The man noticed her movement, looked up at her, and said, "Seems like you're busier than me?"
"No way, if you don't understand, you have to learn first," said Susanna, holding a book and looking at him. "Is grandma's surgery confirmed for this weekend?"
Aaron's face didn't look good. "This is not something you should be concerned about."
Fine, she won't ask.
Susanna turned and walked away. As long as Erica's brother can successfully perform the surgery for grandma, she won't worry about these things.
Aaron sat alone on the couch and took out his phone to see the assistant's reply: [We haven't found a suitable doctor yet.]
Aaron rubbed his temples, his face showing exhaustion.
The next day, Susanna went to school for classes and felt that her classmates looked at her with strange eyes.
Soon, her best friend Flandre sent her a campus forum link: "Exposing the truth behind Master Susan's award, turns out she has a financial backer."
Susanna clicked on the post, and the content was simple: [Accusing Susanna of winning the award because she had a financial backer.]
It even had a picture of her bending over to open a luxury car door.
This was clearly taken the day she got into Aaron's car while having a meal with her classmates. Fortunately, Aaron's face wasn't captured.
Susanna closed the link and replied to her best friend Flandre: [I know who did it.]
Yesterday, the class monitor approached her for no reason, saying they knew her secret. That woman always liked to bully the weak.
After class, the counselor called her directly: "The principal informed me to investigate this matter, you better write a statement."
Susanna immediately called Arthur, who answered immediately. "Susanna, what's wrong?"
"Arthur, I need your help with something. Can you trace an IP address?"
Arthur furrowed his eyebrows. "What exactly happened, Susanna? You need to explain clearly before I can tell you what to do."
Susanna sent him the forum link. "Arthur, I want to find the person spreading rumors."
Upon seeing the post, Arthur became instantly furious. How dare someone spread rumors and defame his sister. They were asking for death.
Arthur coldly said, "Give me ten minutes, don't worry, go buy yourself a cup of coffee."
Ten minutes later, Susanna received the information sent by Arthur. The name associated with the IP address was indeed the class monitor's.
With a cold expression, Arthur said, "Susanna, do you want me to expose the person's information?"
"No need, I know how to handle this."
The Campus Forum incident spread quickly, and at least the people in the school basically knew about it.
She didn't have any classes in the afternoon, so she went directly to Q.F. Studio.
As soon as she sat down, Dick came out of the office: "Susanna, I already know about the school forum incident, don't worry."
"I know."
Susanna knew who did it and also knew how to solve the problem.
Allison heard about this and immediately forwarded the link to Elaine, then showed a hint of coldness.
On the other side, Elaine showed it to Mrs. Abbott as soon as she knew about it: "Look, Susanna is causing trouble at school again."
"Susanna is really good at stirring up trouble."
Mrs. Abbott was so angry that she didn't even bother with her facial mask and went straight to Abbott's Group to find Aaron. "Look, Susanna has caused trouble at school again. Photos of her with a man have been taken. If they spread, we'll be humiliated."
Aaron frowned when he saw the forum content.
Not until he saw that photo did his frown ease up a little: "Mom, these are all rumors."
"What rumors? Haven't you seen this photo?"
"I have, that car is mine."
Mrs. Abbott was shocked and didn't speak for a while before finally saying, "Aaron, what you said is true?"
"Yeah."
Mrs. Abbott adjusted her clothes. "Susanna is really a troublemaker. She's been causing trouble all this time. Oh, by the way, the doctor you found was in a car accident. What are you going to do now? Erica said her eldest brother has left the Red Cross, which means he has time now. Why don't you hurry up and divorce Susanna?"
"Mom, I have my own plans regarding this matter."
Mrs. Abbott left angrily, and after leaving the office, she looked at her assistant and said, "Inform the principal and have him revoke Susanna's scholarship. This troublemaker doesn't deserve to hold the Abbotts' scholarship."
If it weren't for Susanna, her son wouldn't be in such a passive situation.
As soon as Susanna got off work, she received a call from her advisor: "Susanna, because this incident has spread too widely, the school has decided to revoke your scholarship."
Her face turned unpleasant. "Regarding the forum incident, I will personally go and explain to the principal tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Susanna's mood became very bad.
She returned home in the evening but didn't see Aaron come back.
Taylor spoke up, "Mr. Aaron said he won't be coming home for dinner tonight because he'll be working late."
Susanna lowered her eyelids, feeling troubled by the incident on the discussion board.
The next day, Susanna went straight to the principal's office in the morning.
She presented the evidence she had collected directly to the principal, saying, "Principal, I have investigated and found the IP address of the person spreading rumors."
"So what? This matter has already had a negative impact. Besides, can you prove that what the other party said is false? How did you, someone from a poor family, meet someone who drives such a luxurious car?"
A series of questions struck her hard.
Susanna straightened her back and said, "Just because my family is poor, does a single photo prove that I have an ambiguous relationship with a wealthy man?"
"How do you explain that photo then? Whose luxury car is it?"
"That car is mine!"
