Chapter 227: Gilbert Kent Arrived
However, there was no sign of panic on her face.
She remained calm, staring straight at Charlotte. "It's really funny, do you think I'm the one who posted on the forum? I'm not that free to write long essays like that. Besides, my phone is in your hands anyway, you can check my forum account to see if there are any
posting records!"
Victoria stated this emphatically.
Charlotte, upon hearing this, didn't say anything further. Instead, she accessed the school forum through Victoria's phone.
She quickly checked Victoria's forum account, her eyebrows furrowing involuntarily.
Just as Victoria had claimed, it was completely empty. There were no posting records, not even any reply records.
Could it be that Victoria wasn't the one who posted as the forum's original poster?
Charlotte quickly checked whether Victoria had any other accounts. If she used an alternate account
to post, it was also a possibility.
However, Charlotte didn't find any other accounts.
In other words, Victoria never posted that article. Seeing Charlotte staring at her phone in silence,
Victoria's lips curled into a smug smile. "How about that? Did you see it clearly now? I'm not the one
who posted it. And even if I took that photo, so what? You and Gilbert Kent were in the woods
talking, isn't that a fact? I just happened to take a picture."
Victoria stated confidently, her expression returning to its previous calm appearance.
Upon hearing this, the crowd unconsciously leaned towards Victoria.
"So, she didn't post the article... It seems like it's a case of the pot calling the kettle black, and you are the one spreading false rumors!" one student scolded Charlotte loudly. Others joined in to defend Victoria. "This classmate, since you made a mistake, please apologize to
Victoria quickly, or this won't be settled!"
"That's right. You fabricated facts out of thin air and hurt Victoria. You should apologize and reflect N on your actions."

Most students sided with Victoria, except for Exen and Jacob, who remained in the corner.
"Xen, in your opinion, who is right and who is wrong here?" Jacob furrowed his brows, feeling somewhat perplexed.
Exen pursed his thin lips and said calmly, "I believe Charlotte."
"What?!" Jacob's eyes widened in surprise.
Exen, on the other hand, remained unfazed, with no noticeable change in his expression. "Just wait
and see."
At the same time, Charlotte still hadn't spoken. She held her phone in silence.
"How about it? Can you return my phone now?" Victoria impatiently stared at Charlotte, wanting to get her phone back.
Just then, Charlotte looked up at her, her eyes filled with a touch of mockery. She smiled at Victoria, but it was an icy smile that sent a shiver down Victoria's spine. Why did Charlotte suddenly wear such an expression?
"Do you think that by doing this, you can cover up the things you've done?" Charlotte firmly held onto the phone, speaking with certainty.
She was sure of it.
Victoria was the one behind this campus rumor!
As for why there were no posting records on her account...
Charlotte had already figured it out.
"I didn't post anything; you've seen it with your own eyes!" Victoria clenched her fist, retorting vigorously, "I clearly haven't done anything!" Suddenly, her
anger and sorrow, and she turned slightly red. Victoria's current

up eyes appearance could only be described as pitiful.
Many male classmates immediately stood up for Victoria.
"Why are you going after her when she clearly didn't do it?" one male student rushed over and stood in front of Victoria, looking furious. 32.4%

"Get out of here; the Starlight Class doesn't welcome you!" someone else shouted loudly.
"Don't think you can bully our classmates. Victoria is not someone you can bully!"
Charlotte glanced at them, but she didn't speak immediately. Just then, the classroom door swung open once again.
This time, it was the principal who entered!
"Principal, what are you..." No one expected the principal to show up at this moment, so they were all taken aback.
The principal walked in with a stern expression, surveying the classroom. Finally, he spotted
Charlotte in the corner.
He cleared his throat lightly and said, "Charlotte, I've been looking for you for a while. I didn't expect you to come to the Starlight Class. Come with me to my office; I need to talk to you."
Upon hearing this, Victoria couldn't help but feel a sense of schadenfreude.
"You should hurry up and clean up your mess, and stop chasing after me!" She said to Charlotte in a chilling tone. "If your actions continue to cause a commotion, it might tarnish the reputation of our West Princeton. It's one thing if you don't reflect on your actions properly, but you also have this persecution complex, thinking that others are framing you. It's laughable."
As everyone listened to Victoria's words, the looks they cast on Charlotte were filled with disdain.
Charlotte, on the other hand, remained quite composed. She looked at the principal and said in a relaxed tone, "Principal, if you want to talk about the things mentioned on the forum, you must also bring Victoria with you."
Victoria was taken aback by these words.
Make her go to the principal's office too?
That's simply absurd!
"Why? This has nothing to do with me at all. Why should I go..." Victoria immediately rejected, her tone very assertive.
The principal nodded in agreement with Charlotte's suggestion. "As Charlotte said, Victoria, you come along as well."
Everyone present, including Victoria, couldn't help but be surprised. The usually stern principal was

being so accommodating in front of Charlotte? It was truly unbelievable.
In the end, Victoria followed the principal and Charlotte. She had no choice. Even though she was unwilling, she couldn't defy the principal.
And so, the three of them made their way into the principal's office at a leisurely pace. In the office, there was already someone waiting.
He was tall and slender, dressed in a dark gray trench coat, exuding an air of elegance and charm from head to toe.
He stood with his back to them, and for a moment, neither Charlotte nor Victoria could see his face clearly. Suddenly, the man turned around. It was an incredibly familiar face.
It was Gilbert Kent!
Victoria's face immediately stiffened, and she felt a bit dizzy. Gilbert Kent himself had actually come!
Charlotte, on the other hand, remained remarkably composed. She gave Gilbert a fleeting glance, and he was looking at her as well.
"Mr. Kent has come this time for two reasons," the principal explained with a faint expression to the two girls. "First, he's here to give an educational lecture at West Princeton, and second, this recent forum rumor has also affected his reputation. So, he came to take a look and find out who's spreading false information about him."
Gilbert Kent, with his unparalleled handsomeness, displayed a faint smile on his cheeks. He looked at Charlotte and said with a smile that was more of a tease, "Someone seems to have misunderstood my relationship with Charlotte, so naturally, I had to come and clarify some things..."
