Chapter 229: The Unexpected Reversal
The title of her apology: [An Apology from Me Regarding Recent Ups and Downs, Directed at
Charlotte]
This post was made by Victoria using her own account, personally written by her.
[Hello, everyone. I’m Victoria Adamson, a second–year student in the Starlight Class. The recent viral post about Charlotte Bellerose was something I had hired a ghostwriter to deliberately post on the forum. I’m here today to apologize, to both Charlotte and Teacher Gilbert…]
As soon as this post was made, the campus forum exploded.
A reversal? Unbelievable!
Everything happened so swiftly.
While everyone was still engrossed in berating Charlotte, they didn’t expect Victoria to suddenly appear and clear things up.
Charlotte was innocent?
Victoria was the mastermind?
It was simply mind–boggling.
[So, everything was Victoria’s doing, and Charlotte is innocent! Oh my, I really need to show some compassion to Charlotte now.]
[Victoria, I can’t believe her thoughts were so malicious.]
[We wronged Charlotte, and we wronged Teacher Gilbert as well.]
[I used to criticize Charlotte…]
[So, it was all baseless accusations.]
[Is Victoria out of her mind? How could she do something so despicable?]
[All those who cursed Charlotte, come and apologize quickly!]
[Disgusting, Victoria is really disgusting.]

Victoria’s apology post quickly received thousands of responses.
The popularity skyrocketed, becoming the hottest post on the front page in an instant! Some directly insulted Victoria, some sympathized with Charlotte, and some couldn’t believe it and bombarded the post with question marks.
At this moment, the campus forum had turned into complete chaos.
However, the story was far from over. After being forced to publicly apologize, Victoria returned to the Starlight Class classroom in a daze.
In the classroom, her classmates, who had already learned the truth, looked at Victoria with complex expressions, their faces full of deep meaning.
Victoria’s image had completely collapsed in their hearts. Who could have imagined that she could do such a thing!
Initially, they had defended her in front of Charlotte, but now, she had genuinely done something
wrong.
Just then, several police officers in uniforms entered the Starlight Class classroom, leaving most people wide–eyed in surprise.
“We’ve been commissioned by Miss Charlotte to investigate the case of damage to her reputation,” the officer said in a stern tone as they walked straight towards Victoria. “Miss Charlotte filed that you’re suspected of spreading false information and defaming her, causing significant harm to her reputation… So, you might need to accompany us.”
Upon hearing this, Victoria widened her eyes in disbelief. Charlotte had actually called the police. She had already publicly apologized; why wouldn’t Charlotte let it go? Did she want to take it to the extreme? Charlotte was being a bit too harsh.
“Victoria Adamson!” the officer’s stern voice echoed in her ears, and he shouted her name loudly.
“Do you understand? You need to come with us!”
Victoria stood frozen in place, utterly bewildered.
For a moment, she had no expression, no words, like a soulless puppet. The other students stood by,

coldly observing, with no one coming to her defense. After all, Victoria was undeniably in the wrong in this matter, and her arrest was well–deserved.
In the end, Victoria was taken away. Right in front of her entire class, the officers showed no mercy as they escorted her out.
At this moment, Charlotte and Gilbert sat face to face in the school’s coffee shop.
“This time, thank you,” Charlotte moved her lips and said this to Gilbert.
She knew that Gilbert had come to West Princeton this time specifically to clear her name. Otherwise, with his status, he could easily ignore such rumors. He had traveled all this way just to help her. And Gilbert’s presence had indeed been a significant factor in getting Victoria to relent so
quickly.
“You don’t need to worry too much. I did it for myself as well,” Gilbert smiled faintly. In his handsome and profound eyes, a hint of amusement seemed to linger.
“By the way, I heard you’re planning to sue Victoria?” He mentioned casually, as if something had just crossed his mind.
Charlotte nodded, “That’s right. Apologies alone won’t suffice; she needs to face legal consequences.‘
Gilbert didn’t say much more after that but changed the topic suddenly, “You… still won’t tell me
about Liam’s whereabouts?”
Liam…
Liam again! Charlotte’s eyebrows subtly furrowed. She couldn’t understand why Gilbert was so fixated on Liam. What would his reaction be if he found out she was Liam herself?
Charlotte lowered her eyelids and said in a low voice, “I’ve told you, I don’t know where he is.”
Gilbert pursed his lips, remaining silent, but a faint touch of melancholy passed through his eyes.
In the afternoon, Gilbert held an educational lecture at West Princeton University. The event was attended by a massive crowd, and it was a lively affair. Nearly the entire campus had turned up
because, after all, it was Gilbert.
However, what took everyone by surprise was that Gilbert played a video about Charlotte before the lecture officially began. It was footage of Charlotte from the Starry Training Camp. In the video, Charlotte elegantly and effortlessly fired arrows, skillfully rode horses, and exuded confidence,

excellence, and beauty.
Everyone was captivated by this video. They were won over by Charlotte’s charm and amazed by
her abilities,
“I’m showing you this video to let you all know that Charlotte and I do indeed have a good relationship because I genuinely admire her, and she deserves that admiration. So, I hope you won’t make baseless assumptions about our relationship anymore because it’s truly distasteful,” Gilbert said with a serious expression. This statement and the video not only shattered the rumors but also showcased Charlotte’s charisma and strength to even more people.
Charlotte’s ability to become an outstanding graduate of the Starry Training Camp was undoubtedly well–deserved! With such talent, there was no need to rely on connections. Charlotte had risen on her
own merits!
Of course, Charlotte was unaware of all of this.
She didn’t attend the lecture but went straight back to Greenside Garden. Max had just woken up, and she couldn’t completely relax her guard. So, she hurried back by car.
Entering the gate and passing through the bustling estate, she hurriedly made her way towards the
villa.
However, unexpectedly, out of nowhere, a small flowerpot flew directly towards her! Charlotte raised her eyes slightly and instinctively dodged it- a swift turn perfectly evaded the flowerpot.
With a loud “crash,” the flowerpot shattered as it hit the ground.
Charlotte clenched her fingers and her gaze focused on the direction from which the flowerpot had flown- there stood Fatima, with an air of arrogance and a face full of resentment.
“You’re quite good at dodging, huh?” She smirked, revealing a chilling smile.
