Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 252

Everyone looked towards Anna.

"Anna Hamilton is pretty daring; how could she sell the sample? That's considered cheating! She’ll be kicked out!"

"She's also taking a risk, what if it doesn't sell? Then she can't earn a single cent!"

"Anna Hamilton is the successor of the Lincoln Group, their main businesses lie in advertising and entertainment. Which advertising company wouldn't give her some extra leeway? With a word, many of them would give her their money willingly and buy her samples."

"No wonder she earned so much money.”

"Even so, she's the top of the class, our designs are nothing compared to hers!"

"It's still cheating!"

Many of her classmates started to look at her disdainfully, requesting for Olivia Finch to punish Anna and Nina.

Olivia glanced towards Anna, "Hamilton, did you cheat?"

Anna frowned, "What's considered cheating?"

The crowd was silent for a moment and then burst into roaring laughter, "She doesn’t even know what's considered cheating, that’s just ridiculous!”

"What a weighty explanation!"

Anna glanced at Jennifer, and said loudly, "The design sample I made for the advertising company is a brand-new proposal, I did not sell my sample."

"Who would believe you?" Jennifer scoffed, "Anna Hamilton, cheating is still cheating! No matter how you try to phrase it, you still cheated!"

"Do you have any evidence?" Anna questioned her instead.

"The fact that you sold the samples is all the evidence I need!"

"Do you have any evidence?" Anna continued.

"...what evidence?" Jennifer was slightly confused.

"The evidence that I sold the samples.”

"The fact that you sold the samples is all the best evidence!"

"You need to produce evidence to prove that I sold the samples, right?"

Everyone glanced towards Jennifer, "That's right! Jennifer, show us some evidence, so we can be convinced."

Jennifer was furious, "Anna, if you didn’t sell the samples that you made in school, how could you write a new proposal within two days and sell it for 300,000 dollars with Nina!

You both definitely sold the samples you had in school! I have eyewitnesses who saw Nina running back to school to take the USB flash drive, and you published the advertisement online!"

Nina was growing scared now.

She didn't expect Jennifer would use the fact that they sold the samples against them. If they looked into the assessment rules, it seemed like their actions did indeed constitute cheating.

"The assessment rules are clear, to use nothing but the 100 dollars as principal, and yet you sold the samples you designed previously, to make a profit and perform well in the assessment. And you insist that's not cheating?" Jennifer was firm in her words.

"Ms. Finch, we didn't cheat..." Nina looked panicked.

Anna patted her shoulder lightly, and used her eyes to convey her message, 'Don't worry'. She said firmly, "If I intend to use my professional knowledge to earn me a living, I have to use my work to prove my skills, only then will I be accepted by an advertising company! I published an advertisement online to search for employment, how is that considered cheating?"

"Excuses! Those are just excuses! I heard you approached the advertising company to sell your samples and not gain employment!" Jennifer started screaming.

"Bring us the person who gave you all this information, so we can ask him face to face!" Anna stepped forward, gaze fixed on Jennifer.

Jennifer knew everything she did, could it be she had someone following her?

Jennifer looked guilty and avoided Anna’s gaze, "The truth is the truth! There's no need for any further questioning!"

"Without proving it through questioning, it's nothing but empty rumors!"

Anna had long been suspicious of Jennifer, it didn't seem like her to openly take a bet against her, it wasn’t how she would usually act.
