Chapter 240 Anything You Want to Explain
Sunny stood frozen where he was, his back stiff, his whole face the color of ash.
He looked like he’d lost the will to fight.

His lips moved slightly, as if trying to form words, but his gaze had fallen to the floor like a child caught doing something wrong.
That look alone–was as good as a confession.
“Sunny, it’s not like you need the money. Why would you sell the exam questions?” someone couldn’t help but demand, their voice rising with emotion.
Every student in the room had a tangled look on their face.
On one hand, they couldn’t understand why Sunny would do something like this. On the other, they were quietly blaming him.
He’d betrayed them–stabbed the whole class in the back.
They had Jean right where they wanted her, pinned down under the cheating scandal, humiliated and disgraced. And now?
She was completely innocent–and one of their own was the actual problem.
Now they were the ones being humiliated, right in front of her.
And a lot of them were downright pissed at Sunny. If he was going to pull this off, why didn’t he hide it better?
Now that Jean had exposed him in front of everyone, they all felt the sting of it.
“Where’d you even get the test questions, Sunny? We hang out all the time, but I had no idea,” someone quickly cut in, clearly trying to distance themselves. “I swear, I had nothing to do with this.”
“You really kept this hidden. Would’ve never guessed.”
“Sunny.”
The principal finally spoke. His voice was even and calm, but his eyes were razor–sharp as they landed on the boy.
“Anything you’d like to explain?” His tone was unreadable.
Sunny’s face was still pale. His hands clenched into fists, body stiff with tension.
But in the end, he didn’t say anything.
He just silently shook his head.
At this point, there was nothing left to say.

If he kept denying it now, she’d just bring out more evidence and hit him with it in front of everyone.
She already knew how he’d made the transactions on the Market app. There was no telling how much else
she knew.
Keeping up the lies would just make things worse.
So he stopped.
He gave up.
He was done.
Sunny didn’t need the money.
His father was a powerful businessman with plenty of wealth. The only reason he even got into Stellarford Academy was because of his dad.
But what nobody knew was–he was actually an illegitimate child.
Even though he lived a comfortable life, he was always walking on eggshells.
He wanted so badly to prove himself. Deep down, he was terrified that one day his father would get sick of him–toss him aside, and he’d be powerless to stop it.
So he knew he couldn’t get too comfortable.
He had to build real skills. Be useful.
Eventually, he started studying computers and hacking techniques on his own. He trained every day, and he was good–so good, he could even go toe–to–toe with some well–known hackers.
But he didn’t tell anyone.
It was his secret.
Little by little, he started using those skills to do things that weren’t exactly ethical-
Like this time.
He’d cracked into a teacher’s computer and stolen the test answers like it was nothing.
At first, cheating had never even crossed his mind.
He didn’t care about the exam results.
Maybe it was just on a whim. Maybe it was to test his skills.
Either way, it happened fast. He acted before he thought.
Once he had the questions, he looked them over–and honestly, they were boring.
Too easy. Too predictable.

What was the point of hoarding them for himself?
Where was the fun in that?
So he decided to spread them around, Quietly. Anonymously.
