Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 157 The Truth Revealed Thus, Quincy gritted her teeth and declared, "Let it beca big deal if it must. I won't admit to things I didn't do!" Calista raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking that Quincy was the type who refused to give up until all hope was lost.

Her voice suddenly rose as she addressed Emmett. "I apologize for this spectacle. I would like to ask you to bear witness today. If it's proven that Quincy did indeed steal my work, I'm asking that the university expels her immediately." Emmett was shocked. I'm not entangled in skind of family feud, am I? Upon hearing Calista's words, Benedict was taken aback. He quickly responded, a hint of pleading in his tone. "Calista, I beg you, stop this! Whatever it is, let's talk about it at home!" Upon hearing that Calista was planning to get rid of Quincy, Yelena becfrantic. "Exactly! Your father has been unwell lately! Are you trying to upset him on purpose?" Upon hearing this, Benedict quickly feigned a few coughs.

Calista cast him a sideways glance. "Dad, stop pretending. Before you arrived, I've given Quincy countless opportunities to confess. The reason things have escalated to this point isn't because of me, but her. She's the one pushing her luck! I know we're both equally dear and important to you, but you should have askedbefore usingas a stepping stone for her!" Initially, Benedict didn't think much of it, but Calista's words made his face beet red. He realized that Calista had indeed grown up, and was no longer the obedient child she once was, even daring to challenge him.

The crowd around them was growing larger. Sweat trickled down Quincy's forehead as she continuously shot pleading glances at Benedict. She hoped he would muster up scourage, ideally to drag Calista away. However, despite his visible frustration, Benedict remained silent.

Seeing the growing crowd, Emmett found himself without a choice and reluctantly asked, "Calista, you claim that Quincy stole your assignment. Do you have any evidence?" Upon hearing this, Quincy thought of something and stiffly retorted, "Don't tellyou've been snooping on my work, and then fabricating evidence against me? I've spent a long tpreparing this and only revealed it now to secure a mentor at the university. However, there would've been plenty of tfor certain individuals with ulterior motives to create false evidence. Callie, we're family, let's not stoop so low!" One had to admit that Quincy was indeed clever. From the beginning, she claimed to have been preparing her work for several years. If Calista were to produce any drafts or data stored on a computer, she could easily assert that Calista had snuck a peek at her work and deliberately fabricated false evidence. Moreover, she subtly hinted that they were "family", hoping that Calista would back down.

Yet, how could Calista just back away like this? With a smirk, Calista said, "So, you're aware that your actions are unsavory?" "I have plenty of evidence. Now, I would like to request Mr. Gosling's presence. Today, I will surely make everything crystal clear! The thief can't get away with this!" said Calista shrilly.

A thief? Initially, when the students gathered around the scene, they had no idea what was going on. But now, it seemed apparent that someone had stolen something. Or was it a feud between two beautiful sisters? Under Calista's cool and powerful aura, Emmett subtly wiped away the sweat on his brow. "All right, I'll call him over." I should really stay out of this and let the dean handle it.

Upon hearing the issue Emmett had brought up, Barry also broke out in a cold sweat. It's Calista again? Why is she always causing trouble? He might have had his reservations, but he still hurried over. Once he arrived, he found the entire gazebo packed with people.

Given that a crowd had formed, Yelena thought of how ruthless Calista was, even summoning the dean. Ultimately, she couldn't hold back and started cursing out loud.

Moreover, every sentence she uttered implied that Calista desired to seize Quincy's possessions. Speople who didn't fully understand the situation even assumed that Calista was shameless.

However, many people furrowed their brows, because Yelena was simply too loud.

Judging from her attire, Yelena should have been a well-off and cultured individual. However, she was behaving like a shrew at the moment. If not for Emmett's intervention, she might have resorted to physical violence. Yelena was determined to stir up trouble, hoping to embarrass Calista to such an extent that she would have no choice but to back down.

Before the arrival of the dean, Calista stood off to the side, maintaining a calm demeanor. Despite Benedict's frustrated gaze on them, she showed no signs of backing down.

Benedict was a mercurial man-timid and easily swayed, yet at times incredibly stubborn. Despite his occasional confusion, he was fundamentally a good person.

Back when they were at home, whenever a dispute arose, Calista

would always fear making things difficult for Benedict, and hence, she would be the first to back down 'Now, no matter the outcome, Benedict still hoped that Calista would be the one to concede. Simply put, he wanted to smooth things over. Benedict truly didn't know what to do. On one side, stood his wife and younger daughter, on the other, his oldest daughter.

People naturally tended to sympathize with the underdog.

Calista's dominance only highlighted Quincy's alleged "weakness".

Therefore, before he arrived, he had intended to persuade Calista to step back. After all, if Quincy could catch the mentor's eye, wouldn't it be an honor for their family?

Surprisingly, Galista completely disregarded his decision. Not only did she ignore it, but she also seemed intent on trampling Quincy into the ground. The irony was that none of this was Calista's fault, leaving him unable to reprimand her.

Initially, he was just pretending to be unwell. Now, he truly began to feel a tightness in his chest.
