Chapter 714
Xyla looked at the photo silently.
Maizie leaned slightly forward. “Do you believe in what I just said now? Take a look at this, the scandal
surrounding Soul has been trending on Google Trends and Twitter for two days now, and it hasn’t been
taken down. However, given Mr. Goldmann’s influence, it shouldn’t be difficult for Soul to get its name off
the list, right?”
At this moment, on the other side of the city…
Maisie completely ignored the article that was still trending on the Internet but was still investigating the
incident that Ryleigh had taken all the blame.
Barbara asked them out to eat at the restaurant, saying that she had found some clues.
While waiting for her, Ryleigh scrolled through her cell phone, surfing through Twitter. She then raised
her gaze and stared at Maisie, who was eating elegantly.
“Zee, you really are a bold one. Aren’t you afraid of being painted as the target of the Internet by putting
up such a self-deprecating article regarding your company?”
Maisie picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her lips. Her eyes then moved. “What is
there to be afraid of? It’s not like I haven’t been
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtscolded before. How many times have those who scolded me online or offline ended up being proven
wrong?”
The corners of Ryleigh’s lips twitched.
‘She’s not wrong about that!
“I’m sorry, have you waited for a long time?” Barbara walked into the private room with some documents,
pulled out the chair, and sat down right beside Ryleigh. Ryleigh leaned over. “What have you brought
along with you?”
“Of course, it’s the clues that I’ve found through my investigation” Barbara opened the file, took out two
documents, and handed them to Maisie.
She then continued. “I went to the University of Northway personally, and I also went to see Professor
Sonnen from the orchestra department.”
Ryleigh was surprised. “You even got to meet with Professor Sonnen?”
Professor Sonnen had always been working at the University of Northway and was one of the professors
that taught Ryleigh back then.
Barbara raised her eyebrows proudly. “That’s right, who do you think you’re looking at? A proper
detective.”
After Maisie went through the information, she raised her gaze and looked at them. “There was no
surveillance in the corridor back then, not to mention that the surveillance in the corridor should have
long been replaced by newer footage after such a long time gap. It’ll be like looking for a needle in a
haystack if we look for clues through the footage.” ‘We at least need to know how Naomi got into the
corridor. Even though the surveillance footage only recorded Ryleigh in the corridor, it doesn’t mean that
Naomi and the culprit wouldn’t go upstairs or downstairs into the corridor where Ryleigh happened to be.
Barbara snorted. “They probably came from downstairs because only the corridor in front of the fitting
room located downstairs isn’t being monitored.”
Ryleigh thought about something carefully, and her expression changed slightly. “Oh yeah, there’s a
fitting room downstairs. It was only reserved for the students who were performing, so only we were
allowed to use the room. If that’s the case, that means the person who harmed Naomi and pushed the
blame onto me is someone from our club?”
“Have you only realized it now?” Maisie felt helpless.” The acquaintances are usually those who commit
crimes in such cases, not to mention it’s a competition in which several people are competing for only
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmone spot.”
Barbara nodded in agreement. “Yes, if I wanted to fight for the spot, but my skills weren’t as good as the
top two students, I’d definitely find ways to eliminate
them from the competition.”
Ryleigh was astonished. The emotions at the bottom of her eyes surged for a moment, and she lowered
her head slowly.
A red Porsche was parked at the road’s junction. Ryleigh lowered half of the windows and stared at the
Royal Academy of Music
that was located on the opposite side of the road.
She hesitated for a moment, found a place to park, put on her sunglasses and a scarf, and then walked
toward the academy entrance.
The guard stopped her. “Young lady, who are you looking for?” Ryleigh looked left and right and pulled
down her scarf. “I’m looking for”
“She’s looking for me.”
The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw Louis, who was standing not far away in a
dark brown windbreaker.
He looked tall and handsome, which made him difficult to be ignored.
The guard recognized him, so he smiled and bowed as he saw Louis walking up to them. “It’s you, Mr.
Lucas.”
