“It was just some casual writing.” She curled her lips while indifference filled her eyes.
Upon hearing her reply, the corner of everyone’s lips involuntarily twitched and they felt speechless.
A few compliments are all it takes to make her have her nose in the air. Now, she is humblebragging that it was merely casual writing.
Hazel cast a cold glance at Janet before rising from her seat and heading outside.
Nina, who was in high spirits since she found out that Janet was actually Rose, hummed a song while returning to the office.
When other lecturers saw her in a good mood, they could not help but ask about Janet’s essay.
“Miss Hogan, how are you going to deal with the plagiarism incident that involved Miss Jackson from your class?
“Exactly! Are you going to punish her? If Mr. Goldstein finds out about this, she will be expelled!”
Nina smiled, unfazed by their words. “It won’t happen. She did not plagiarize.” After saying that, she took the ringing phone from her desk and left.
The lecturers looked at Nina’s back, feeling bewildered. “What does Miss Hogan mean by this?”
“Is she going to cover up for Janet?”
“Truth be told, if Mr. Goldstein finds out about this, both of them would have to leave.”
“What’s more important here is that Janet actually copied Rose’s work. She is really shameless for having the guts to copy the work of such a famous author.”
Hazel, who was standing outside the office, was stunned.
She intended to ask what kind of essay Janet wrote to be able to attain a perfect score but incidentally overheard the conversation.
Janet has committed plagiarism? And on top of that, it’s Rose’s work? It came to Hazel so sudden that she momentarily could not return to her senses.
Squeezing her skirt tightly, she carefully asked, “Sir, did you just say that Janet copied Rose’s work in the test this time?”
The lecturers glanced at her without answering.
Hazel let out an awkward smile. “My last name is Fuller. I’m a student from the medical school as well, so I’m curious about this incident. Sir, can you tell me about it?”
When the lecturers heard that she was from the Fuller Family, they were shocked and surprised. “Are you Hazel Fuller?”
A while ago, they heard that the daughter of the President of Yobril’s National Council had come to study in Woodsbury University. Although they hoped that an outstanding student like her would come to their class, she chose to study medicine, which they found quite a pity as they were unable to meet her in person. However, to their surprise, they were able to meet the young lady of the Fuller Family that very day.
“Yes.” Hazel lowered her eyes and smiled, feeling glad that she was so popular.
One of the lecturers answered her directly, “Truth be told, Miss Jackson from the medical school has indeed copied Lady Rose’s work in her essay.” Other lecturers voiced their agreement. “That’s right. Your lecturer is aware of this too!”
“Yes; in fact, we actually saw Miss Hogan when she was marking her essay!”
Hearing that, Hazel’s face paled slightly and a shocked look appeared on her face.
Miss Hogan knows that Janet had committed plagiarism, but why didn’t she expose her on the spot? Could it be that she wished to cover up for Janet? No wonder Janet got zero for her Spanish paper initially, but she suddenly scored full marks in the end. Well done, Janet. Not only did you commit plagiarism, you even plagiarized Lady Rose’s work. I have never seen such a shameless person. No; I cannot let this slide. I must make sure that Janet pays the price!
After Hazel left the office, she immediately fished out her phone and scrolled through her call logs with her eyes lowered.
The phone rang for a moment before it was finally picked up.
Hazel had a gleam in her eyes when she spoke in a straightforward manner. “Emily, I didn’t expect Janet to be so shameless—she actually copied Lady Rose’s work in her essay during the test.”
