My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 544

"Vivian, stop talking about Nicole. What exactly are you doing every day other than framing, spying, and finding a way to alienate Nicole? How did you become like this?"

Vivian looked at Oliver and sneered. "Did I frame and spy on her? Do you have proof? Oliver, stop shooting your mouth off here. Don't you forget, Nicole has despised all of you who couldn't beat her on the exam. Yet you still trust her and think I'm wrong about her."

Oliver frowned. 'The students of the Royal Creek Institute have always been proud of ourselves. As much as I felt not too happy at hearing what Nicole said, she earned that on her own merit. After all, she won the gold medal in the Math Olympiad competition.'

Vivian seemed to have read his mind and laughed sarcastically. She looked at Oliver calmly. "Didn't you go to the award and see how intimate Mr. Wyance treated Nicole that day? Who would believe there is no hanky-panky going on between them? Even Mr. Ellison, who was always impartial, defended Nicole."

Thinking that she was now holding all the cards, Vivian looked back at Nicole with a sinister pride. The thought of Gary scolding her because of Nicole upset her. This was something that he did not even do when she scratched him the other day.

'I won't allow her to act with impunity again. I'm just doing something good, a favor for our schoolmates.' Vivian snickered at the thought of this.

"Can you prove that the prize you received is real, Nicole?"

Everyone looked at Nicole suspiciously upon hearing what Vivian had said.

As Vivian sounded as if her accusation was justified, all eyes were on Nicole, as people could not tell what actually was going on.

Nicole looked up nonchalantly, her gaze sharp as if a glinting blade. "You're really asking for trouble here. Aren't you afraid that I will throw you off the building?"

As she looked at the window on the side, Vivian followed her eyes and shivered in fright. She would never forget the horror of the other day. But now the situation did not allow her to flinch. Vivian gritted her teeth and said brazenly, "Nicole, don't be too arrogant just because you can fight. You're at school. Besides, all I'm asking is a factual guess. I dare you to say that you've never cheated."

Just then, the school bell rang. Ms. Emerson walked in with a stack of test papers. She was stupefied for a second at seeing Nicole and all others stand there. "What are you all doing standing here? Return to your seat. We're going to review the test papers of the monthly exam."

Vivian looked at Nicole with indignation. Instead of returning to her seat, she looked at Ms. Emerson and asked matter-of-factly, "Aren't the results out today? Why do we still need to review the exam papers?"

Ms. Emerson looked at Vivian, her eyes lacking the fondness that she usually had. "There is some controversy about who gets first place this time. Mr. Kennedy is looking into it and will probably come over in a moment."

'What? Isn't Norah from Class A who always holds first place? What controversy is there?'

Even Vivian froze for a second before continuing to ask, "What do you mean, Ms. Emerson? Did someone cheat?"

She gave a sideways look at Gary as she waited for Ms. Emerson to give an affirmative answer.
